You silly French. I love this picture of Loic. ;-)

I'm looking forward to going to Cannes tomorrow.

Will French Dialing be the next new trend?

I am getting images of Nokia ads shouting "Nokia 6969 with Patented Lemon Taste Dial Pad!" followed by an image of cellphone with a nob that will transmit tongue-prod messages (TPMS).

I am gonna have to read a couple of XML specs to get those images out of my head now.

Don - Right, this definitely gives new meaning to the term "French Kiss". It's a great picture. The funny thing about it is that Loic's expression appears sincere.

The picture also reminded me of the picture of Chris Pirillo sucking on a mouse. Wireless Kimchee Mouse could be a hit. :-)

The French will kiss anything, which is why I love them so much.

Vive la France!

Good heavens !
Has some cunningly localized French-language interface made Loic forget that the Treo is still an *American* phone at heart ? ;-)

Remember the (in)famous IBM red-clit mouse pointer? We're launching here a new kind of reverse-pointing device, the same as IBM red-pointer except it provides motion-feedback back to the tongue of the GSM user.

pluggable add-ons available.

All fenchmen are good at kissing... OK!?

And it is not a problem for us to kiss an American items (or not items..).

Vive le Japon, l'Amerique, et le monde !

In the beginning just remember it was darked and then someone smiled! try this:

I don’t suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it. :)
