Giant mutant mouse DJs for an animated building

November 30, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This an ad for Nokia Lumia 800. I’m still trying to talk someone I know into buying one as I suspect it’ll be pretty good. I’m sure WP7 is a much better mobile OS than people fear it is.…

November 28, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment
