British Tissue It's nice that the Economist still remembers that soft tissue project, maybe they still use it daily in the office. economist.com But I think they got Yrjö Neuvo slightly wrong, there is clearly 8, not 10, times more software in a GPRS phone than in an old phone, as there are 8 time slots on one GSM carrier. They also missed some on the old system of alliteration my ancient buddies wrote down in Kalevala (Finnish epos and folklore), should have been something like: Fat Finnish Fables from Failing Envious English Economists Whining Woes with Winning Wicked Wap Ilmarinen and Vaka Vanha Väinämöinen P.S. An old photo of me working on one early prototype, Väinämöinen testing the modulation, power amplification and the antenna, when we were young students. (I'm working on the battery saving constant amplitude envelope of GSM) hel.fi (the english text has some minor mistakes in the translation) P.P.S. My present buddies have upgraded to 200% penetration, need to have one public SIM card, phone number for all potential chicks, and another more private when the present chick is around, not to be disturbed, and two colour coded handsets to keep them apart.
