'Sexist Review of the Nokia N72
The past few days I have been doing some research for a new mobile phone. I came across a rreview that starts hilariously thusly:

The Nokia N72 is an updated version of the Nokia N70, but without the 3G functionality. Although available in a choice of black or pink, it's not really one for the girls, being typically SmartPhone-sized and weighing in at 124g. [Editor's note: we've received a complaint about this sentence, telling us that it's sexist. We'd like to apologise if we've offended anyone. However, the fact that the N72 is available in pink tells us that Nokia's marketing people were targeting women. We're not suggesting that women should buy pink phones (in fact we think they look stupid, but let's not start another argument.) Statistically, smartphones are more likely to be bought by men, and in our experience, women prefer smaller phones. We were just trying to be helpful, not sexist, but obviously we made some sexist assumptions. We're sorry if our sexist assumptions caused offence, but we stand by our statement.]

The rest of the review - and the phone itself, it would appear - is fairly ordinary. Anyway, you can read it here.

On a related note, it's become insanely difficult to find a mobile phone that just does the basic stuff well - calling, receiving, good address book, notes, calendar, syncing to PC. That's it - I don't need a freaking mp3 player, fm radio, gps receiver, scanner, printer, camera, tooth pick and microwave oven wrapped into one pretty, tiny thing that keeps crashing more times a day than Windows 98 did on my desktop, dammit...  More on this later.
