Looks like O2 still has the best deals. Also, I don't like Orange, so they are out, I'm on Vodafone now....
I saw the one 9 down from Tesco. My Thought Process was like this:
£20? That must be a typo...250 Minutes? Ooh!, 100 Texts? This is fantas- Oh. £222. Poo. :P

Obviously the " almost two months" was not enough of a clue.

Even with that clue, I have still never heard of the film....
And the current picture... These clues are getting increasingly cryptic. ???

Sounds good although I'll have to stay out of the bond films as I would be a NAY on all of them. Haven't really seen them :D X X

 The Yay/Nay Game
« Result #5 Yesterday at 9:11pm »

Someone will have played this before, but I think that this forum is missing it :D.
The object of the game is to see which item in a list is the most popular, by everyone giving it a YAY rating or a NAY rating. All items start on 10 points, and a YAY gives another point, and a NAY gives -2. When a item reaches 0 points, it is added to the ELIMINATED LIST.
It sounds a bit confusing, but is actually easy to play. ::)

We could start with something that everyone will know, such as the James Bond films.

When I put a Nay on a film, it gets lowered to 8 points. If I give something a YAY it gains a point. Yeh? Just remember to make the appropriate changes to the scores before you click post, or else it will get messy...

Dr. No -10
From Russia With Love -8 NAY-2
Goldfinger -10
Thunderball -10
You Only Live Twice -10
On Her Majesty's Secret Service -10
Diamonds Are Forever -10
Live And Let Die -10
The Man With The Golden Gun -10
The Spy Who Loved Me -10
Moonraker -11 YAY+1
For Your Eyes Only -10
Octopussy -10
A View To A Kill -10
The Living Daylights -10
Licence To Kill -10
GoldenEye -10
Tomorrow Never Dies -10
The World Is Not Enough -10
Die Another Day -10
Casino Royale -10
Quantum Of Solace -10

Bad business practice is I was sending out loads of PC-virus infected word docs. It would just mean all my mail goes into the junk folder of the person I'm trying to contact.

I like have a AV program, its not always on but its nice to know its there.

“Apple is slated to come out with a new phone… And it will largely fail…. Sales for the phone will skyrocket initially. However, things will calm down, and the Apple phone will take its place on the shelves with the random video cameras, cell phones, wireless routers and other would-be hits… When the iPod emerged in late 2001, it solved some major problems with MP3 players. Unfortunately for Apple, problems like that don’t exist in the handset business. Cell phones aren’t clunky, inadequate devices. Instead, they are pretty good. Really good.”

I would give you clues but it might take weeks to discover them. Maybe I'll give you half a clue. If I was feeling nice I might give you nine.

Then again I might not tell you at all ;)

Why don't you post another picture from the same film to give us a clue? Will the names/faces of the actors give it away?

Clue, anyone? ??? Usually iDan drops hints about the title but this time he's giving us the silent treatment.

Hello Simon.

I run the gauntlet - no AV for me. It makes me think of innoculation programmes, we need a certain percentage of the population covered to ensure effectiveness - I think that percentage is lower in the mac world.

Good Morning Mr. C.

There is an app already available for reading forums on the iphone
http://www.tapatalk.com/

Unfortunately it is not compatible with every board provider

Maybe worth contacting thrm to see if they have any plans to introduce support for proboard (if they don't already)

Well for practice there are 100,000 ideas out there already. I suppose you could find one with really poor reviews and try to improve on it.

The app I am waiting for though is one that takes forum sites and renders them readable on an iPhone.

An app that I would like but would not take too much work would be a comprehensive fingering chart for the tenor saxophone. I type in the note and the app displays ALL of the alternative fingerings. There are some paper charts out there but most are really tricky to read. The app could be extended to all members of the woodwind family for a more global appeal.

Is this what you had in mind?

Right now I'm lucky if I can get 1MB downloaded in a minute. That means, on average, I'm on 16.666666666667 KB/s. :-[

That is disgraceful for the year 2010. :'( (almost)

How about boycotting SKY TV ?

I love the Humax FreeSat alternative. You can buy their 320GB FeeSat recorder for around £249 one-off cost, then with no monthly subscription you get a good range of decent channels including BBC HD and ITV HD and you also get all the normal SKY+ functionality such as pausing live TV, recording more than one channel simultaneously, etc.

The Humax FoxSat HD recorder box will also support iPlayer via its ethernet socket in the next few weeks (the BBC are just finishing Beta testing).

Go on... stop spending ridiculous sums of money to SKY every month and re-use the dish they installed to feed a Humax box instead. You'll be quids-in within a few months, and have the extra satisfaction of sticking two fingers up at Rupert Murdoch.

So glad Rage are number 1. I never thought that anyone with actual talent could ever get close to the top spot again since around 1980. ;D

But I think that if the same song had been released any other time of year, without the X Factor, Joe would not have had any success whatsoever.
What can we boycott next? ::) I already did the X Factor and Modern Warfare 2.... ( I don't like Call of Duty games anyway, so that was an easy one for me) :D

 App Ideas...
« Result #40 on Dec 21, 2009, 1:40pm »

Hey Guys,

I've been doing a lot of 'practice' in iPhone app development lately but run short of ideas.. wondering if you guys had an idea of your 'dream' app... nothing too impossible though?
