Re: A lot easier than the original...

yeah- I bought them too. I'm saving them for a long plane journey next week.

A lot easier than the original...

I was able to complete all the levels (including the Eggsteroid ones) with 3 stars in about 2 hours.

WTF... should I pay to download BBC shows?

Re: James

I do think the DVD argument is the best way to defend this. No licence payer gets the DVDs for free, so why should an alternative method of content delivery be any different?

Another example would be: We in the Republic of Ireland indirectly pay a fee for the UK channels. But this means that we don't even get the version of iPlayer that's available in the UK. We get the Worldwide version; some free content but the rest is €6.99 a month.

RIP...

He died last Saturday, I've been re-reading The Incal since (and The Long Tomorrow and The Airtight Garage).

That episode was responsible for me hacksawing off the front of my Eagle Lander.

iPad 3 shell shots spied on web

But the revelation about the resited screws has just given me a nerdgasm.

TVCatchup

hmmmm...

I don't see how this is any better than the (ad free) FilmOn which was reviewed earlier this week.

Dermandar Panorama

Thanks for the review...

but on checking the results it made my mind up to not buy this app. Poor seaming, overuse of feathering and no exposure smoothing. Nice UI elements do not a good app make.

I always thought that Mario in the Tanuki suit was missing something...

It's WOW for Furries.

Ryanair ponders in-air mucky movie service

AndrewInIreland

Errr...

I think I see a flaw in Ryanair's thinking- If you drew a Venn Diagram of iPad Owners and People Who Fly Ryanair, you'd get two circles that do not intersect.
