In my experience, mobiles _are_ targetted at women. Pink Pebl? Razr? LG Chocolate? Prada? Nokia Lipstick?

What about the the gadget-factor? They should hear my stepdaughter (LG Viewty) and her mates --- bluetoothing video, making slideshows, and bragging about megapixels and gigabytes, and subverting the mosquito 'technology' to make ringtones adults can't hear.

The other day at a party a semi-retired woman was proudly showing me her blackberry --- and she knew her way round it, make no mistake --- telling me how she could run her whole on-line business from the beach.

Maybe females aren't that different, after all?
