  1. To get an iPhone 4s or not? On 3 mobile

    Title says it all really. I've had enough of my blackberry and I've been looking at either getting an Android or an iPhone 4s. I'm currently with Orange and have seen a really good offer with 3 mobile. Does anyone have any experience with 3 mobile? Good network? Orange have been spot on tbh and I'm going to see if they can match the deal but I dont think they will.

    Hey :wave: Was a toss up between Sport and Net & Tech, but i went for here. Anyone use this website / app? What do you think of it? I've used it for the past week or so, and like it a lot. Although I wish it would list the same runs under the same route, rather than making different ones if that makes sense. Unless I'm doing something wrong?

  10. CD player

    I've recently bought a portable CD player, which with the use of an adapter I have got working. The issue is that it plays only on headphones. It is a Philips, and the number seems to be EXP2546. Is it something that could be played without headphones in any way or will I need to take it back? If so, is there anything else you recommend?

I now own an Xbox 360 250GB console as from this afternoon:D and it already has disconnected on me. The router used to be straight under my bedroom and it used to be around 100% signal strength....

    What is the best import settings to have on iTunes when importing a cd? As default it's on import: ACC Encoder and settings: iTunes plus (256 kbps).

Office seven and twenty ten, microsoft changed the interface to ribbons, and took all the normal menus away. I am visually impaired, so my screen reading software didn't take too kindly to this new outlook. I wanted the menus back, so I wrote ocs, office classic simulator. Its a portable program that...

  17. Internet speeds

    I'm 3km from the exchange and I'm getting 2mb if I'm lucky! I've already changed the filter and I've been speaking to our provider and they have said we should be getting around 4mb but they can't work out why we're not. Any ideas and is that expected speed roughly correct? It's not fibre optic or cable and it's an urban(ish) area.

The plan was to watch a DVD, obviously, but what actually took place was more along the lines of a computer funeral. My PC will...

The other problem I have is that I don't know how to check anyone's credentials. Does anyone here have suggestions?
