Re: whopper
No problem, I've had one for a while and I hardly notice it in any of my pockets but why not pop into a phone shop and give one a try ;)
Re: Delete Java
Maybe change that to "If at all possible delete that sh$t" I've not had it installed for years and have never missed it, unfortunately it is still required in places.
Love the way you all had to post as AC as you know RM are so vindictive they'll probably hunt you down or make your friends that still work there pay. It sounds silly but I've heard some stories about that company that defy belief (could just be stories of course, but I've met a few staff)
Re: Ian 62
There could be pics all over the web of you with your name against them not only on FB.
You 'could' be tagged on FB but it won't link to your FB account as you don't have an account, so in effect it's just some text stating that it's you and that can happen anywhere on the web!
What a surprise
"But the truth is that - just as with the USA and Russia, and to a significant extent with Europe - China's space programme is all about increasing its security and influence here on Earth, and very little to do with expanding humanity's frontiers out into space"
Things just never change, all those naive youngers years wishing for change wasted. Bring on the new cold war :(
I love my netbook
Sold my old laptop before going away for a while and picked up an NC10 when I got back. I used it for two years as my main laptop at home, I picked up an external DVD drive but hardly ever use it. It's been great for internet, email, iPlayer, listening to music etc its also got great battery life and fits easily in my backpack and unlike an ipad it's actually usefull for doing some work and typing (don't get me wrong the ipad has it's uses).
What a great versatile device :)
@ Eddie Edwards
Is it 39 years for the whole Voyager mission from design to present? NASA tend to do that.
@ Jean-Paul
As I explained I do get decent battery life usually but I turned off features to get even more. At the end of the day why have wi-fi and 3G running in my pocket using up juice anyway when with one touch I can activate it and use it to check emails and browse the internet when I need it. Also saves a bit on my leccy bill :)
Desire S
Just bought one for £350 and I'm very impressed. Went to a festival last week and it lasted for a full two days and nights, I turned off 3G and turned it on when I wanted to check email, internet etc, used the camera a bit and made a couple of calls. In general I have it syncing email, facebook etc every hour and use wifi when at home, I work 12 hour shifts and when I get back there's always at least 50% battery left.
This is far from the nightmare stories that I heard about with most smart phones and the original desire. Other than the need for a shutter button to operate the camera I've not got any complaints.
Errrr
A: It's FREE
B: I really like the new hotmail, it's one of the best free web products out there....did I mention it's free!!!
@ AC "Yeah, though it craps out a fair bit"
Never had to do that on any of our Windows 7 boxes with Foxit.
@ madmattttt
With an attitude like that towards women at least we don't need to worry about you reproducing ;)
@ Ivan 4
But it's still a product that eventually needs to GO and changes like this highlight this. Simple facts.
I used to love OS2 as well and in the real world but as I stated above.
@ Ivan 4
"What about something for us OS/2 users? Just because IBM has tried to kill off OS/2 does not mean it is dead - far from it."
What is it with you people??? Get with it, Windows 7, OSX, any Linux flavor...this is your wake up call welcome to 2010 and on and on ;)

"just because you haven't got problems doesn't mean nobody has "
of course in an OS as widely used as Windows and with so many available devices a few people in millions having a problem with a couple of devices is a pretty good success rate ;) I'm sure all 20 desktop linux users will have something to say about that, i'm one of them but it appears i'm the only one that isn't delusional.

"How is this poll a threat? The SS are dumbasses. This polls is what's called F-U-N. Or do you not have fun on that side of the pond?"
No there's no fun involved some of those people are deadly serious and that's the problem. As stated by mmiied
"the only country where you find pepol who are FOR unversal access to guns and AGAINST uinveral access to doctors you got to love the logic"
you can see the kind of people and level of stupidity that you're dealing with.
