That $1,000 the lad in Lagos needed? Just email it with Google Wallet

Friday 17th May 2013 14:06 GMT CJ Bill

Funny you should mention that lad in Lagos

The pay by email system reminds me a bit of m-pesa, an African pay by text system which is massive in East Africa. It's very much proved itself in it's home country, Kenya, and is spreading.

Re: The article is good, but is an opinion, not a fact report

Don't forget El Reg is, fundamentally a red top with the same instinct for bending reportage as it's Fleet Street cousins albeit without the same propensity for bunging brown envelopes to Inspector Knacker.

UIQ, Warrington based?!

"Motorola bought Warrington-Based UIQ Technology, which layered a graphical user interface over Symbian"

Point of information, UIQ were based in Ronneby in Sweden: Warrington, on the other hand, was where most of the SE software platform work for Symbian devices was conducted (Kista in Sweden being where the hardware work was done). I should know, I worked there from 2001 until they shut it down in 2009.

I tend to agree Tchou, although the Iranian government are the biggest bunch of theocratic tossers out there, responsible for some of the worst repression on the planet.
