Aquila pronounced AK-weh-lah, uh-KWILL-uh or even a-kee-laa, means eagle in Latin. Just like the eagle, this blog is my “bird’s eye view” on situations or topics that I happen to come across in my life.

It’s a strange, strange world we live in when someone actually creates an e-book, listing the location of 108 public toilets throughout the central part of Vancouver, Canada. And if that wasn’t enough the guy actually quotes from the “Public Toilet Act“. Do we even have such a thing in SA? Maybe we should get GPS coordinates of all the toilet facilities in the country.
But as they say, if you’ve got to go, you’ve got to go.

Fans of Jessica Biel (7th Heaven, Summer Catch, Blade Trinity) might want to pop over here for some really nice pics of the lovely lady. My favourite must be the basin picture.

The day finally dawned for cellphone upgrade time.
After many, many deliberations with colleagues, family and friends, reading (what felt like) tons of magazine reviews and trawling through countless websites, blogs and forums, it was decided that familiarity breeds content and that one had to venture into the unknown…The Sony Ericsson P910i was finally chosen over the Nokia 9500.
Wifi connectivity and a huge screen was traded in for a pocket-sized phone with a touch-screen and some style.
So wasting no time, the internet connection settings and a new Opera browser was loaded on to the P910i. Why, you may ask. Well, to blog of course.
This will be one of many attempts at blogging on the go with the P910i.
First impressions are awesome and this can truly be described as the must-have smart-phone to own.
Some niggles have surfaced, but nothing to get too upset about at this stage. Besides, the toy is still way too new and exciting to highlight the negative points (if any exist).
Till later…
