You can't argue with that, but who's the woman?

I think the idea is that she's on the net with her phone, but frankly, it looks like she's a prostitute at first glance :oops:

My phone network has no problems right now. I have been able to stream TV and radio over it, though that might change over time. Most of the time my phone is connected to my wifi network so I have not been effected by such limits.

I'm not sure how you get that :?

You have to give her credit for an attempt at colour coordination.

I meant your very first impression, cos she's standing there on her own on a street corner. Thinking about the colour, maybe it's subliminal BBC branding :lol:

That says more about you than about her :lol:. if I saw a woman looking quite dressed up on a street corner looking at her phone, I'd assume whoever she was there to meet had just stood her up...

Doubt I'd ever try to stream video on my mobile internet (rathern than on wifi) anyway.

I thought that, but my network went slow and so I used 3G rather than wifi. 99% of the time it streams via wifi.

Again, very first impression, woman on a street corner - I hadn't even noticed what she was wearing at that point :lol:

I agree she initially looked like a ho but second viewing makes her look forlorn.
