Is number portability really the way to battle the queen bee
by [ Brainiac ] 30 Sep '10

What if all the other mobile phone companies were to attractively package twin sim or multiple sim card phones with one slot "locked" to their network? what if additionally the locked slot were to somehow be configured as the default permanently so that while you can receive and make calls on the other SIM cards, the process would be significantly cumbersome. Me thinks that while the green sim card would automatically take one of the slots, the operator with the default sim would eventually benefit. -- Regards, Collins Areba. Strategic Operations.

Making Mail App the default mailer on OS X
by Odhiambo Washington 29 Sep '10

29 Sep '10

I hope there are Apple users here - like Brian Munyao:-) I'm assisting a colleague to make Mail App the default mailer on OS X, such that when in, say, MS Word, he decides to send the document to someone, Mail App would be launched. >From "Go ogle", it tells me that I need to open Mail App and go to preferences, then chose Mail App, like detailed on http://bit.ly/cN6aTv. However this does not seem to achieve the desired result. Any other idea?? -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube
