@ericube you're right about the N900. It's superlatively excellent at some things, but it's not quite a handset & commercial sw an issue
@timbo_baggins @conorfromorange thanks. I do see good social net/email support as crucial for cos I use. More efficient/async./in control
thanks to whoever stuck leaflets through door jamming letterbox open and cold air to stream in . for that *straight in bin*
another day doing some coding. Roll out the wd40 ;-)
I swear I've gone back to the 60s. Listening to "rumer" - http://bit.ly/c6sZ6x - sounds like karen carpenter
@honeybee85 ah indeed. you were running to schedule then
@VodafoneUK since you mentioned it. Unrelated (credit where due) but waiting on Re: MMM135 [#4788422] -emailed @VodafoneUKdeals earlier also
think I know where all the graduate optimists go to work -- for the mobile phone companies working on their coverage maps ;-)
another lunchtime overdosing on coriander and parsley. Yum.
perhaps any graduate optimists can explain the definition of "good" used by the mobile networks for coverage ;-)
I can think of another 4 letter word that begins with c and ends in p
@Walkerooo Oh. sorry to hear that -- could it be related? hope it eases up.
@mbdrake well "crop-ping" could apply - and my house/office lies outside the crop ...
RT @TomRedknap: RT I would like to win a @virginracing jacket and a pair of signed racing gloves #VRjacket http://tinyurl.com/32aq95u
RT @LDN: Fantastic photos of old London http://bit.ly/9bIMyV (via @H_FJ)
@mseckington hope you like them, but stil fail to understand why women punish themselves so much. If was sw I'd regard as #usability #fail !
Sigh. Silly waste ££ RT @john_jameson: RT @timprater: BBC have a helicopter above Buckingham Palace to "cover" the royal engagement live!
@Walkerooo maybe mulled wine could help?
@krishgm Is her birth name "Catherine" ? not >k< ?
@SuzShoes was thinking more about bbc spending money on helicopter - they should put it to #f1 coverage funding ;-)
@Walkerooo it's getting to that time of year where mulled wine/sherry/brandy becomes acceptable at any time of day - purely medicinal/cold !
@Walkerooo fair point, just trying to cheer you up.
wondering if @fb_com is genuine. take care out there...
@Booooothman I'm withholding judgement for now. but I think it probably is.
@sxa555 more convinced it's spam now. deleted rt/blocked
@sxa555 I'm rather weary of #facebookemail but what's interested in most of my gmail is "business" email - just small proportion is friends
@sxa555 But I do send/receive facebook "messages" from friends on a low volume but regular basis...
Different musical style next (like a wide range of stuff). "the who". Live perf of pinball wizard now..
can anyone recommend any good sites that discuss (forums) samsung internet@tv or sony's bravia internet web tv platforms?
@EwanMarshall I went samsung in the end, (just a few weeks ago) but went for a sony blu-ray - both have internet tv functions
@EwanMarshall samsung is prettier, sony seems to work better (esp for iplayer) but I wouldn't take those capabilities as top priority
@EwanMarshall though last month they had a "scrappage" deal. samsung bounce the offers too.. figured mostly just buy when ready
@EwanMarshall whatever you get will be obsolete soon anyway so enjoy it whilst it lasts
@EwanMarshall Worth looking around for free 5yr warrantys too. sony and samsung both had them on selected models (JL too, panasonic I think)
@EwanMarshall what have you narrowed things down to?
@OrtisDeley maybe you should offer to share the venue to save costs? ;-)
@nnubeh @fradgepick @MissLaura There's one in port solent. friend suggested la cantina? http://bit.ly/brFtKK but not been there myself
@formula1blog bad link ? Site seems broken actually? getting javascript errors on page (chrome) #F1 #tv
@terakopian I just have visions of an identity parade, sorry!
@EwanMarshall it's a minefield.
@EwanMarshall mostly the picture quality (but none are perfect), also looked good/thin, price, easy to use, decide plasma vs lcd too..
@sxa555 I've not had an in-depth look yet but quick searches suggested a smattering of content, wondered if I was missing anything big
@EwanMarshall YOU HAVE TO. SERIOUSLY. John Lewis is a good place, also sony/panasonic dealers -- the tvs tend to be setup better
@EwanMarshall you can also see much more in a currys superstore or similar, but they're often setup very poorly. Combination of both
@sxa555 that's true, there is on a model specific basis, I was thinking more about the platform, common to many devices. I'll have to relook
@EwanMarshall they look v. different. plasma ppl say better for authentic colours/motion, but more power/heat
@EwanMarshall lcd - brighter, lighter, lower power. LCD majority but only you can decide...
@EwanMarshall I found the "cheap" supermarket brands rubbish. Some LG screens v, nice, limited other capability. Sharp didn't quite get
@EwanMarshall My shortlist were sony EX503 +samsung 6530 . 46. both led (edge lit ) non 3D (for living room).
RT @OrtisDeley: That's not a bad shout *considers* RT @planetf1: @OrtisDeley maybe you should offer to share the venue to save costs? ;-)
@EwanMarshall I spent about 3-4 x 3 hours looking at models (TVs that is!) . I get obsessive sometimes ....
@EwanMarshall it was a close call bet. that and the samsung for me. pretty good for a "lower"-end sony.
@EwanMarshall the edge-lit led panels can suffer from backlight bleed-uniformity, but honestly I thought EVERY tv had some issue or another
@EwanMarshall if you give up on perfection you'll be fine!#
@EwanMarshall well I had been tossing up between the 503 and a samsung 650 which were about the same price. Both non LED -- but then found
@EwanMarshall an offer on the led samsung and went for that. As I said close and think you should check out yourself.
RT @vixisabel: “@vickylygoef1: 115 sleeps til #f1 season starts.” True #F1 geek :)
@vixisabel @vickylygoef1 <imagines a prison cell with chalk marks being crossed off> #f1 #F1
@EwanMarshall do not... you need to know the best prices to even think about it. Places like comet/currys are generally 100s pounds more
@EwanMarshall tho U may find good deal, just need to know. sony stores bary (franchises). John lewis =-5yr warranty but overprices s/.times
@sirsteveyoung thanks steve - yes used them, just checking no-where else. still seems quite quiet.
@OzoneVibe @vixisabel cool, only downer is it's Booooooorain #F1
@OzoneVibe it's almost an idea, though I haven't the foggiest clue about US "series" #F1
ANy #f1 fans want to ask Jenson button a question -- just saw this -> http://on.fb.me/9FhOXQ
@lookatbowen I thought the opposite! I already have both. TV=samsung bluray=Sony - did this intentionally to get both!
@littlecough look at my wall in facebook -- should be a "like" item there
@lookatbowen jury still out. Neither will stream my unprotected AACs from twonky. Need to look at transcoding/config of server
@lookatbowen You heard samsung rumours of google tv too.. The usual tech dilemma wait or not.
don't puppies always look so innocent when you try to tell them off for being naughty....
Another large dosing of coriander from large bag purchased this weekend. So love the herb!
Yum. nice red atlantic salmon, cous-cous with fresh lemon and coriander & some peas. Yum Yum. (oh downhill... and a beer :-)
@Alexandra_1608 Of course! only q super quick simple meal. Oh I didn't brew the beer ;-)
@Alexandra_1608 good buying list?
@Alexandra_1608 To be specific a proper beer - ESB. Very scrummy #SpanishHumour
@OzoneVibe Always good looking there. that week would have been so hectic for me - things on sat too that am not sure I'll get there early
@OzoneVibe but will be at tweetup on time for a bite.... even turned down a local party (family are off there) !!
Any tips on getting ink (biro) off a cream sofa. Have tried the leather cleaner and some leather ink remover. Poo. Kids.
@IamNii_Teiko absolutely!
