List Under Watch
by Paul Gichigi 15 Jan '13

15 Jan '13

Hi guys, This list has been under watch ever since I donated money towards the server programme. I made the mistake of impregnating a girl from a well connected family (both politically and financially) and they have been trying to monitor my moves and bring me down for ending the relationship. So yes, very powerful people in the country are monitoring this group... Don't believe me, try calling the safaricom line listed below... -- Paul N. Gichigi. +254 720 788 696 / +254 733 788 641 +254 772 788 696 P. O. Box 64638 (00620) Nairobi, Kenya Time is of the essence, watching it fade away is consequential.

Re: [Skunkworks] Apple Unveils the iPhone 5 with 4-inch Display and LTE
by Martin Gicheru 09 Nov '12

Apple did not show any significant change in iphone, mobile is quite important while nothing much happened save for a line of apps on the app drawer thanks to the height increase on the device and LTE ability on quite many bands(I wonder if that would work on our networks -stand corrected) . nothing changed design-wise over the last 3 phones. Apple devices working with each other is not a new thing and the fact that they are speaking about these just shows creativity has come to an end for Apple. -----Original Message----- From: Okechukwu Sent: 13-09-2012, 07:10 To: Skunkworks Mailing List Subject: Re: [Skunkworks] Apple Unveils the iPhone 5 with 4-inch Display and LTE Tim Cook made a very interesting comment on why Apple is the leader: "What places Apple way ahead of the competition is how all these devices work so well together" - This is one comment non-Apple users will never understand, that's why u still looking for the wow factor. Then the website adds: "iPhone5. The biggest thing to happen to iPhone since iPhone" Apparently, Apple strives to beat itself for every successive product. Someone even commented that the iPhone5 is so useless compared to the iPhone6 which will be slimmer, faster & more value! For an Apple follower, this is definitely a getter! ./Ok3ch Sent from my iPad On Sep 12, 2012, at 11:38 PM, Moses Muya <mouzmuyer(a)gmail.com> wrote: Nothing impressive about this one!
