@gerrymoth the button mapping is a tad awkward (not blaming nitdroid, fact is the same buttons just aren't on the N900)
@Thrinne1 I take it you've listened to @lissiemusic ? (very very good IMO)
@sxa555 lack of reconnect already open as a bug. See http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=805750#post805750 and http://bit.ly/9YwOYK #n900
@sxa555 are you using stock kernel or titan? #n900
Oh good. just activated RT @jemimakiss: Ok, so Gmail priority inbox *does* work with Imap- it creates an 'important' folder. Thanks, @nevali
@BTCare Thanks - excellent move :-) Of course now everyone will want even more ...
@Amy_Walker can't really make it tonight. will be in soton tomorrow. How about Fri 24th as a followup tweetup - spread out a bit? @ozonevibe
really wanted to finish a piece of work by end today. It's not happening. Listening to some lissie (when I'm alone) to see if that helps..
decided to try implementing a web proxy at home (too many devices) - may cut down some traffic (not streaming tho')
added wpad to dns, created /wpad.dat on WHS, added mime type/expiry. defined auto proxy function. seems to do it. Does it slow down tho?
err. whilst it works "freeproxy" seems to add fair bit of delay loading (no pipelining). Any other free win32 proxies?
@EmmaGx IMO three are good for data - most contracts tariff can at most add 1 or 2Gb for £5
@EmmaGx I've been nouncing three/voda due to coverage, but since 3G coverage on 3 is pretty good I'm staying I think now.
@EmmaGx It's just home/work at issue. Ok near window. may try *passive* booster at home (2 back to back antenna ie to bypass walls)
@dougedey Different use case today. this isn't to get uk access, it's purely to optimize traffic as we have so many devices/pcs at home
@EmmaGx I was tempted by giffgaff too due to community involvement and "unlimited" data, but O2 3G poor round here
@OzoneVibe I think there's a 1814 train from CF (need to check). that would be in ~1835 at a guess? Deciding whether to go to town first
@OzoneVibe prob not
@EmmaGx you could prob get a free sim with either -- if you pick up signal you could prob do a £10 topup - both will do data for that
@EmmaGx BTW three also use orange as backup - but would be gprs or edge then. Most coverage maps are rubbish. need to try out.
Has anyone got hold of a 3G yagi antenna (outside) and cabled direct (ie passive not xmitter) to inside omni to try to improve 3g coverage
@amandagolding Yes I am! You? @OzoneVibe #tweetup
@amandagolding We just had discussion about another one in a few weeks to accomodate those who couldn't make sat ( #tweetup fri 24/1 ?)
@EmmaGx defo. Usually you go for free sim first (no topup). can't make calls but can check signal levels. Then if it looks viable ->
@EmmaGx add a topup. prob has to be £10 to get data (on 3 you can get 600 texts+120Mb for a topup) - but don't xfer num. do that 4 contract
@OzoneVibe looks lie 1814-1836 so could meet you at stn or just at pub 23:21 home
chinese on order. Yum yum..
wondering whether I may go slightly earlier to get bite to eat. But will be at pub before 7 at worst!
@f1photos you can get active boosters but they're technically illegal. Would need good aerial/outside signal. I need 3g (2.1Ghz) ->
but for O2/vodafone 2G (900Mhz at least) may be poss to use TV antenna, well at high end (goes up to 840 or so)
@OzoneVibe will text/dm tomorrow
@f1photos I'm hoping to get a reco. on the antenna. big price variation £15-£90+ need good, but not overpay...
@amandagolding Yep I was ... any idea on where? I guess slug/lettuce may have cheap/basic.
@f1photos 3G passive repeater http://bit.ly/9oU3s3
@OzoneVibe So it's now an eatup or tw-eat-up ? @amandagolding @dellacunio
@OzoneVibe not hungry for too much longer here. Family decided there was no option but to order a chinese!
@amandagolding will have to get permission as need to have pregnant-dog cover! But what time where you thinking. Hour earlier?
Gave up on work task. Bother. Couldnt crack it. Annoyed. Now have huge domestic todo list....
@amandagolding sounds a good plan. So what sort of time are you planning out of interest. May get there earlier
#southampton @tuesdaytweetup #tweetup reminder 7pm slug/lettuce tomorrow.
@OzoneVibe may try to get train 1hr earlier then. Stn about 1735
@OzoneVibe ok deal. Thats what i will go for
@kkir ah. Dvd is sitting by machine. Hoping to watch soon!
@TinyF1 cryptic....
@Sofia i have still never been there. Seemed to all be chicken and sauce. Though i love hot chilli/ginger/spice...

@vixisabel interrailing.. Great fun tho' i did it many many years ago around europe. A wonderful month away...
RT @bradleyvast: Scientists have discovered a food that diminishes a woman's sex drive by 90%. It's called a Wedding Cake.
@SuperR0B nice one.
Oops. No #ff yet. May be later or tomorrow...
@angryjedi so are you off somewhere? Sorry couldnt make it. Hope you guys having fun
#southampton @tuesdaytweetup (not) #tweetup tomorrow 7pm slug/lettuce soton
@vixisabel oh netherlands germany yugoslavia (then) hungary italy france spain i think. Loved madrid venice amsterdam esp.
@vixisabel prob not now, but only due to family+so many other places to go. I did really enjoy it at time (uni vacation)
@vixisabel it was @popey Video driver power management (radeon/ati proprietary). Biggest issue I had #ubuntu
@LauraLeslie23 hah! Watching ashes to ashes 7/8
@laura_marieee not listened to it, but she's always funny on tv. Did you see #xfactor last week? (guest judge)
@popey if you want a followup it would be flash. Not such a big issue for work but for GP use it still remains prob. hope not/much longer
