Could someone in the US or anywhere outside the UK kindly download* the Google Talk client for the BlackBerry 7100 (it won't let me do it from inside the UK - talk about Chinese web censorship!**) and drop it into my Gmail inbox at garyturner[at]gmail.com? Muchos gracias, mes amigos.
* Other barriers to adoption of this particular piece of technology other than state censorship are that you need to get to the download link using Internet Explorer 5.0 or above - which probably rules out anyone not running Windows. I'm sure there will be other obstacles yet undiscovered in this process, such as you can only download it during a randomly selected 5 minute window every 24 hours and you name must be Xavier or something.
**Plus, even when it's installed I'm sure it'll still tell me to piss off and put the metaphorical strip of duct tape back over my gob. But curiosity killed the cat. If this is my last post for ever, then called the authorities as I'll have been picked up by men in black helicopters for insurgency, treachery or something unpleasant. Actually, better not contact the authorities. Trust No1.
