currently downloading the latest firmware for my phone. i was looking at my operators website just now and i see that my ongoing phone activity for the month has already the current download in the list. i noticed aswell that so far this month (12 days) i have downloaded 220mb or so on my mobile phone - thats in jaiku traffic, internet, shozu/flickr uploading and the afore mentioned firmware update. the cost for all this is 9,95euros (that includes unlimited data transfer at 128kbs, 1000sms and 1000mms).

the same data transfer on an equivilant phone (monthly bill on o2) in ireland would be 1100€ (they charge 5€ per 1mb transfer). (vodafone works out at 425€ for 225mb transfer). is there something i am missing?

greenpeace finland have a new ad about global warming and the current general election campaign here. pretty intense stuff. watch here.

translation of on-screen text:
jos ilmastonmuutosta ei pysäytetä, tulvat lisääntyvät ja merenpinta nousee
(if the athmospheric changes dont stop, floods will multiply and the sea level will rise)

mitä ehdokkasi aikoo tehdö seuraavien sukupolvien hyväksi?
(what does your candidate plan to do for the good of following generations?)

update: yle story about reaction to the ad.
