I may have mentioned a couple of times the overwhelming onslaught of iphones even while it wasn't official available.
It's overall easily possible to realize that in our office, restaurant, plane there are a dozend iphones around you.
And while I love myself shiny new gadgets and like the iphone I consider it as very funny when people spend all this money on a phone just to... Well, phone with it (and of course be stylish, show off).
Usuall russian doen't have any clue what a iphone can do (and most off the german which bought one in Russia cauz it's cool).
I just watch a girl in the airport, sending sms with her iphone while listening Music with an old gen bulky iPod :)
Stupid, didn't she even realize that the iphone has a ipod built in beside a dozend of other features.
:)
Bdw, the Russians in my office like to joke about the old phones Germans use. And I agree that germany is embarassing for lack of mobile internet, pricing and an ignorance in the populations & politics for their potential (we prefer to support the transrapid instead of UMTS to close the digital gap).

About this blog
This blog is a close up on Russia
I would anyway fail. I am too long here. So beauty & decay, education & corruption, high culture & kafka-style administration are meanwhile normal for me.
So this blog is like a painting from from Roy Lichtenstein... when you are with your nose on it :) You will just see the dots, not gaining any understanding of the whole.

Most things will look strange in this blog. But you can be sure, I would not live here, if there would not be a lot of great things here. Unfortunately, the weired stories are more interesting to tell & read.
Don’t judge
