That is good Stuart. Surely if it becomes a problem if Paul and yourself
were agreeable and too many people were being frustrated then we could
either specifically write up the subject mobile or have another list. I
think myself ensuring the subject title would be less confusing. I am well
on the way now and have gone quiet on questions though I do have or two
remaining. Just for now my question relates to N95. I want to know if I am
having a telephone conversation, say with yourself or someone and it is a
very important conversation. Then I might want to record the conversation.
How would I do that? I know this is possible on some phones.
I realize there are all the issues of legality when recording telephone
conversations but I am thinking in terms of the person knowing that I am
recording it and me having their permission to do so.
