Sounds good. Most of the Orange apps are a pain.

The Orange website reports that my San Francisco II should already be
sporting 2.3 Gingerbread. However, in the About phone menu on my set it
reports Firmware version 2.1 update 1 - don't know if that refers to the
version of Android.

Neither the Symtec card nor the Castle card will see the phone fully on the
RiscPC. They know there is something there but I can't get at the files.
However, my Widows machine recognises it OK as a mass storage device

Thanks for the info.
