- Good to hear from you Meraj. I'm willing to bet it wasn't a Nokia N97 that you gave to your father?

Yey.

I know who the mystery 'silhouette' is too, but I don't want to poopoo your feature.

Nice one Ross. Next time let's get you on camera!

I ran off to tell Simon where you were. After that you went *poof*. Next time maybe.

Can I also make a salute Dan's boots. Huge shiny nut crushers! Did they also have pockets? It looked like each one had it's own utility belt, like Batboots.

In a previous episode I'm fairly sure he pulled out a penknife to open some packaging. I could be mistaken, it might have been an actual Batarang ;)

Hey Ben - I was sitting, minding my own business, watching this episode of MIR video podcast on the train, when the chap sitting next to me gave me a poke and declared, "I know him - that's Ben Smith - he used to ork for us!"

I am truly amazed your fame and noteriety! I am sure that the world of 'Accident Prevention' will never be the same since you stopped working there!

:-) I have 'ork'-ed for a few people - not sure I recognise the cryptic description though! Did you get his name?

Infamy, infamy... they've all got it etc etc...

Hello everyone,

First time post, please be gentle.

Is there a secret to watching this video, I have a vimeo account and still a no go after I login.

P.S. when are you lads coming to the US. I just started watching and it's an AWESOME show. Thanks

We had to remove this video temporarily.

The others here: http://www.mirshow.com - should work fine.

Hi Peter, In addition to James' response, thanks for the kind words and welcome to MIR!

We'd love to get to the US, although no immediate plans for the whole team... *cough* funding *cough*

We are, however, at Future of Mobile in London soon (http://future-of-mobile.com/2008/london/) and MWC in Barcelona in Feb! Fancy a trip to Europe for a beer? :-)
