I see that you have run out of arguments now. Understandable.

You can have the £5 if you can tell me what my location is at 3pm today, to within half a mile.

You've just proved my (and Ian's and Giles') point for me, thanks

Ah - but I don't have an iPhone.

I'm sure someone from Google would be able to tell us. They do after all love data mining.

I doubt it. I was nowhere near a computer and my mobile phone is just a simple one (and was switched off anyway).

But rest assured that I had a nice afternoon wherever I was.

So it wasn't a serious challenge

You were just trolling... thought that was the real motive.

A gentleman's club?

It was a serious (if somewhat whimsical) challenge - to make my point that, without an iPhone, you couldn't track me.

You bandy about the word "trolling" a lot. It doesn't mean someone who disagrees with you. Your use of that word against BatBoy many times in this thread when he was just reporting concerns that are being voiced in many places is unjustified. It is particularly unjustified as it carries the implicit threat, as you are a moderator, that you will take action against "trolling" just because you disagree with him.

You accuse me of being Delta and I reply with a bit of light-hearted banter. That is not trolling, it's just a whimsical quip. Don't take criticism of some aspects of Apple's products so seriously.

I expect that from Ian - he knows no better - but I like to think that you are more sensible. Reports of concerns about an Apple product are not trolling, even in the Apple forum.

A nice thought, but no. I would have to agree with Groucho about Gentlemen's clubs.
