what a small world we live in

by

This may sound a little odd, but the other week I had an accidental meeting 5000 miles away from home with Philip Blair Product Director HTC Europe. I had a lay over at LAX when I flew back from SES at San Jose, and a mix up in security meant that I walked off with the wrong laptop and I quickly had a guy chasing me waving what looked like my laptop at me.

I joked about the fact that I wouldn’t have found him in LAX and off I went on my way. Bored I headed up to Air New Zealand’s business lounge, (strange but true, they had some great business class flight deals from the UK to the USA) where I met the same guy that I had accidentally picked up his laptop in security. We got chatting and even though we both had Lenovo Laptops, I was surprised that he had the exact same Laptop carry case, a NON-lenovo one. Even more surprised that this was his and my first time on Air New Zealand, I’d flown in from San Francisco and he’s flown into LAX from Canada somewhere, but what totally freaked me out was when I found out he lived 10miles away from me !!

Anyways we got chatting about HTC because they are awesome, and I wanted to really know what he thought about android, well it’s going to happen soon and it’s very stable and fast, was the message I got from Philip.

so maybe, just maybe I will invest in a HTC Android driven mobile phone to replace my existing HTC.

    I’m guessing you had more valuable stuff on your laptop than Philip had on his :.)

    I think he had quite a bit of information that he won’t have liked out in the public realms

    Wow, Air New Zealand being the airline of choice for UK-US and CA-US flights? They sure have good ticket prices, but I find Emirates always makes up the difference in food you can actually eat, leg room, every economy seat having it’s own screen and remote, etc.

    Or maybe I’m just biased due to my biz class upgrade for a 12-hour Johannesburg to Dubai leg.

    Please either do not approve my last comment on this same post, or delete the last paragraph. Further investigation has shown Emirates is not a British company at all. Thanks; next time I’ll double-check before posting comments from the hip.

    I do not believe in so many random things that may line up in a row.
