Rules of thumb and experience help, but we prefer repeatable experiments. And if you see this and laugh, you're probably not as good as you think you are. Thankfully, the recipe for a one-move parking job is pretty simple. 1. Pull alongside the car ahead of the space you want. Align your rear axle with that car's bumper. Turn the wheel toward the curb at full lock. 2. Back up until the center of your inside rear tire aligns with the streetside edge of the forward car. Straighten wheel, continue to reverse. 3. When your outside tire aligns with that same edge, turn the wheel the other way. 4. If all went according to plan, you're in the space, bodywork intact. Get out and admire your work.

This is a story which is perfectly logical to all males: A wife asks her husband, "Could you please go shopping for me and buy one carton of milk, and if they have eggs, get 6." A short time later the husband comes back with 6 cartons of milk. The wife asks him, "Why the hell did you buy 6 cartons of milk?" He replied, "They had eggs." Think about it, read it again.

Got this little guy to use and so far it has been a joy. It's slimness and fantastic build-quality and materials make the phone feel good to use. Like driving a German car. It's the smallest in the family. Functionally, the E51 can do everything the E90 can, except GPS. And it does everything very well. Improved user interface, fast speed, top of the range communications protocols ensure that it is not all show and no go. Of course being a business phone targeted at business people, media capabilities take a back seat. The 2MP camera with no flash is nothing to shout about, but business users don't go around snapping pictures with their phones everyday. But the looks can easily fit into the multi-media phone category. Functionality comes before everything else. Wifi, 3.5G, push/pull mail, VoIP, productivity suites, compatibility with Office documents, PIM, instant messaging, camera, music, video...etc. You name it, it can do it. To top it all off, the battery life is good. The things that aren't so good aren't so bad either. The main complaints are that it is a fingerprint magnet and the buttons on the sides and top of the phone are a bit stiff to press. That's about it. At RRP SGD$588, I honestly cannot think of a more capable, well-made, functionally well-balanced and good-looking phone to buy at this price. I think we have a winner here.
