no

The quote doesn't confirm it sends back all the data it has gathered. We need precise info, not media bytes.

10 Minutes?

That's an impressive fail on your PC setup at the time - the best we did with Daggerfall was 72 hours solid, five of us taking turns with the controls.

@Matthew3

This might work for city central types, but not for the rest of us.

Would you care which telco hosts your number if there was only one that could provide a connection where you live or work? Would you be happy to be moved to Orange if only Vodafone or O2 provided a service in your area?

Thanks for that Lee

Yeah, the footnote was the core - the rest was the setup for it, nice one

That's odd - I see all-in-one touchscreen PCs in the shops often and I've seen quite a few business touch screen models recently.

but only if you have a network connection - so not much use on the tube, most trains, in the wilds, etc.

Ah, you misunderstand - the 10" models need a man bag, the 7" only needs a decent sized pocket.

but you could always use LEGO for the miniature model

It's not discrimination if it's based on a known higher risk of fraudulent transactions from that location, it's simply an essential level of security.

Or possibly let's hope it is a Sony clone but with better PC software?

hope

One would hope and expect that knowing they had served their country well would be enough reward but the odds are, unfortunately, stacked against such hope.

has this quote been verified?

Though it may be good news in the long term

Maybe corporations (other than just sony) will realise they need to either pay a lot more attention to their security (and that of their affiliates) or reduce their net presence big time.

it is what it is

Re-imagining is a perfectly accurate description of Hollywood's current attempts to cover up the fact that they no longer do original work.

well yeah, but no

not really.

A simple peek at the image of this new Asus and then a look at a photo of the MacBook air was more than enough to convince me the two don't look even remotely similar.

Well other than being thin and having a clamshell format with the keyboard on the horizontal bit and the screen on the sticky-up bit obviously.

nice troll there

purple hair and everything

Maybe not

If the clients get warned before any damages can occur isn't that a good thing?

It sounds like you would prefer damages occurred just so companies can be sued.

Moving Ceres

Of course moving Ceres will be a 'no risk' option - there'd be no chance of disturbing the orbits of the other asteroids would there?

chute

optional?

google cache

has a habit of exposing secured or subscription-only pages

pad size

Why are getting such a glut of 10in tablets when 6 to 7in really does seem to be the sweet spot for practical use?

Wish I could get one

but they still don't seem to be available or supported over here in the UK

Helicopters and US commandos

It's really odd the way helicopters always seem to function perfectly until there's a high profile spec ops mission at which point they just randomly fall from the sky.

e-ink pad?

What would be unbelievably nice would be a colour e-ink pad - might not be any use for for games or movies but would be awesome for pretty much everything else.

Why NFC?

In those scenarios what would be wrong with printed brochures (rather than somewhat optimistically hoping every visitor or possible customer has a compatible phone with the correct version of the right software activated)?

NFC - No F***ing Chance it's going on my phone.

Most

Those Big Company (tm) users ARE the normal office suite users. They probably don't know they're using VBA but most are using it quite regularly.

Touch can be useful

The sony readers have a nice mix of buttons for regular tasks like page turns (although there is a touch option) with touch for menu navigation, selections, etc. The combo works rather well.

It's there

I've had good 3G connections in the last 12 months in London, Cambridge, Leeds, Bristol, all on O2 on an old HTC HD2.

sadly true

Which is why so many will be disappointed when their shiny (screen) tablet just isn't any good as a reader

Apple's point

They could do that but then they'd be getting 30% of a lesser amount and there's no way Apple's execs could justify depriving Apple of the lost income.

Except there were some true hits

Some games (for example the Monster Hunter series) managed to hit the high-end mobile market just right - beautiful graphics but intentionally short action episodes, perfect for commuter train journeys.

No, he's right

The message was extremely clear - must go lie down now

You forgot Bracknell - though a small nuke would be more useful.

Not all missionary hospitals are like that

When I was working as a paramedic I came across no missionary hospitals behaving that way.

As an example the Andara, Namibia, RC mission hospital always treated everyone that came to them regardless of race, creed, national origin or the medicine costs. The doctors were mostly German.

No idea what the attached school was like.

? short battery life o all modern smartphones?

Are you really sure of that - I'm averaging 3 days between charges on the HD2.
