giffgaff?
what, no mention of GiffGaff?
sim only, great bundles (from £5 per month) decent out of bundle costs (4p sms 8ppm calls to any network)
nice extras (free 0800 calls, free gg-gg calls and texts)
and totally unlimited internet...
Posted in The Register comment guidelines 2010
I think...
...whoever wrote these guidelines should be sacked.
That is all.
'A spokeswoman for O2 said'
Ah, so you got the quote off their facebook group then... :)
Posted in Playboy flashes 3D centerfold
Surely...
...if the centre-fold were one of the Navi people, it'd make for a VERY blue edition of the magazine.....?
does it not make sense though...?
'tsunami of complaints from US Christian groups, which believe it will lead to an increase in internet porn.'
yeah, but if all porn sites ended .xxx all you'd need to do is block *.xxx as a parent / network manager... seems to make sense to me?
yeeah, but...
...will it blend?
interesting...?
"...and connect with the... ...things in your life."
So, does this mean we'll finally be at the Tomorrows World point of our toaster telling the fridge we need more jam?
'I'll drink to that' but only if my fridge has ordered more beer from Tesco's online for me...
Posted in NFC breathes new life into tombstones
website...
'the tags can use induced current to respond with a URL where the owner, or the owner's heirs, have uploaded personal information about the deceased'
'Sorry, this site is currently under decomposition - please try again later'
yeah, ok, it sounded better in my head(stone).
Or, just get a regular simplicity contract...
The regular 12 month simplicity contract, 1600 sms, 800 minutes and 'unlimited' 3G internet is £20 too... and it works great on iPhone. (Yeah, you lose the visual voicemail and tethering but still...) Plus, get it through topcashback and make some dosh while you're at it.
Posted in Sky 3D soccer fails to score
curious...
...can you wear 2 pairs of glasses for the full 6D experience?
[chose icon, coz he's wearing glasses innit]
Cleanup in isle 3....
title says it all.
Viral...
I'd have thought an extra-marital affair website would want to keep the viral aspect to a minimum...
Posted in Apple preps touchy-feely iMac
I'll assume you MEANT the pun...
'tap in to [the touch screen all in one market]'
A pun too far...? :)
Posted in US woman to drop sprog live on internet
There's an app for that...
...with push... push... PUSSSSHHHHH technology...
they could market it as...
...'KevBra'?
that...
...really sucks.
Sorry. I'll get my coat.
Kids don't need mobiles...
most schools have a pay phone, end of "after school club" nip to pay phone, 20p, job done...
kids want phones to look kool... deal.
Why stop there...?
I mean, imagine the BLISS of banning mobile phones in, ooh, trains? Planes? and (when driving) automobiles. (A quick and safe look around on my drive down the M4 every day shows that people still do use phones when they drive...)
Perhaps the kidz of today should do without their phones for a bit longer, possibly the Tories should suggest no TXT B4 M@rij...?
If the kidz want to film happy slapping incidents after the ban, they can just use a digital camera, surely...
er, actually...
I *think* you'll find that's 6:02pm... No idea why, there must be a reason, but still, 6:02 it is.
A really clever hype up by Apple this, I mean, a new nokia comes out and no one really cares until their next phone upgrade... but the iPhone comes out and geeks queue up for hours...!
what a pile of...
so, they charge you a fee because you "might use the media to copy copyright material"? So, if this is the case, scanners, printers, cameras, mobile phones, your eyes... should all have the same fee, just in case you happen to use them to pirate something...
another pointless EU law. At least the "lets have straight bananas" one was worth while, it means i can fit my sarnies, a snack AND a banana into my lunchbox...
Posted in 'I'll be back' is most-quoted movie line
yeah... but what counts as a quote?
So, does using the 'quote' in everyday life make it a quote? I mean, if you tell someone "I'll be back at 3" does that count on the quote-o-meter? Aparently, if you wrote out 'I'll be back' every time it was said in 2006, you'd fill 6 football pitches...
Posted in Supermicro punts 'world's densest blade'
sorry...
...I read that as "Super Mario" now that WOULD be a story and a half...
Could be used to an advantage...
...I mean, these signs can be helpful and informative to all invoved. Also, it helps get the scallywags back to work. Only the other day, visiting my local hospital, I noticed the sign "Thieves Opperate In this Area"
you are the weakest link...
hmm, what about "google cache" and "the internet archive" if they store details of sites that are taken offline, surely they are just as bad?
There must be a mistake...
...I don't see Fasthosts as one of the top 5?
I'm not as plucked as you fink *hick*
We can see right through this one... "Ok guys, the sooner we come up with a figure, the sooner we can hit the town, have a few beers, eat a Kebab and sing "New York, New York" in a seedy nightclub"...
and if there's a powercut...
...can it run on candles?
...rarely encrypted passwords to aid customer service.
yeah, that makes sense. "I've forgotten my password, the one i use on all my internet banking sites too" "ah yes, its FL1bble sir"
surely "OK, we've emailled you a link to change it" or "we've set up a temporary password, you'll have to change it..." would serve the customer better?
Its like saying that locksmiths should have a key to all the doors in the street incase you lose your key... which reminds me. Where are my keys...
When they say "50% of the emails..."
So, all the spam about 'extensions' and 'tablets' have been restored, but that email from your relative in Australia...
Posted in Microsoft patents brain-computer link
"It looks like you're thinking about writing a letter..."
So when "Windows for Brainwaves" is released, you'll REALLY need a memory upgrade?!
Posted in YouTube invades Google Earth
Now all we need is a "Why"
We have a what and a where after all...
