Who

Simon Trimmer <simon@urbanmyth.org>

What

I'm a software engineer in the Development Boards group at Symbian, I work in the kernel of Symbian OS (EPOC) improving hardware support for devices that can be turned into mobile phones.

I also play at being the lead guitarist for Urban Myth.

Why

Why not?

When

Before Symbian I worked at Veritas doing Linux kernel work (NAS and SAN appliance products) and The Santa Cruz Operation (SCO) in the Unix System Group. I studied Computer Systems Engineering at Bangor, University of North Wales, before deciding straight Computer Studies at the University of Glamorgan would be better for my soul.

How

Long story; some good, some bad and most best forgotten.

Where

Work in London and sleep in Watford, I could be anywhere in between.
My parents and their dogs still live there. My sister is at University somewhere in England... she's Internet literate though often she denies it, I have linked to her homepage in the past but she moves it too often to keep track :)
