    Reader and Listener feedback:

    Jay 
    HTC is not going to publish what they have fixed (or broken) with

    this new upgrade. I contacted HTC to find out if there is any release notes for
    this upgrade or if they can tell me what "enhancement" they are bringing in with
    this upgrade and below is what I got the response...
    "Thank you for
    contacting us. In regards to release notes I can help you with that. We can not
    issue release notes for these updates as each one is different depending on the
    network branding that has been performed. I trust that this resolves your query,
    please do not hesitate to contact us again if required. Thank you for contacting
    HTC."

    Hi thanks for trying to answer my question.. I won't ask any further as nobody
    seemed to know. I would like to just let you know I live in Basingstoke for my
    sins. Basingstoke is not exactly highly populated and nobody I know has this
    issue but me. Worth me mentioning as Andy thought he had solved it.... be he
    hadn't.

    Thanks anyway.. 

    Chris.

    Dear MTA
    I love the Northern Irish accent.  Please fix it
    for me to hear Gareth say, on air, "How Now Brown Cow",  twice.
    Many
    thanks

    p.s. A most enjoyable and informative podcast.  Do
    keep up the good work.

    Guys

    There are hundreds of different tones,
    On hundreds of mobile

    phones.
    How can anyone pick out their ring,
    In all the ring ding a ding
    ding a ding.

    Carl.

    Limerick Time!

    (Oh god)
