Stephen Fry is a writer, actor, and all round clever chap. He’s also one of those people who’s opinion i’m interested in on just about any subject. That’s not to say that I agree with him on everything, but I know that his opinion is likely to be entertaining, informed and likely to get the brain working.

His latest string to the multi-stranded crossbow is a column in the Guardian newspaper,  called Dork Talk,  where he talks about various technology thingys that take his fancy.  He’s previously confessed to be a well informed smartphone junky, And today he’s looking at the Glofish x800 pocket pc phone.

I’ve often said that by definition it’s impossible to have the perfect PDA, and I’m happy to read that Stephen agrees…

Chasing the perfect smartphone is a frustrating game. This one is perfect but it doesn’t have Wi-Fi, that one would be ideal if only it had GPS. The other is OK but isn’t 3G. Aha, this is it! Oh bother, it can’t do video calls. And so on. Not that I actually need all those features, it’s just that for us Knights of the smartphone Grail the terms of the quest demand the One Device That Has It All.

But has he found his holy grail… is his quest over… will there be another smartphone column from him ever again????
