What gets me with these phones and portable media players, is how cheap the actual memory is.

I picked up an 8GB microSD card for my phone, brand new for £10 delivered.

Which probably means it costs about 50p per GB to the manufacturers. Yet they can charge more like £10 per GB increase sometimes!

kurosagi01 · May 14, 2009

lol ipods are over overated thats why they are expensive

i've got myself an ipod because of my phone crashing after 30songs+ and i only got 512mb

FreedomEclipse · May 14, 2009

I got myself a Sandisk Sana E280. Its old but its great - its an 8GB i bought off amazon for £70 i think then later on I upgraded the capacity by slapping a 2Gb micro SD in. - i got the 2Gb card for less then £5 from Hong Kong. got some nice custom firmware on it too

What is it with people and the ipuffs? :rolleyes:

alexp999 · May 14, 2009

If you ask me Swineflu was a setup to get the media talking about something other than the "economic crisis"

i agree with that too,they must be bored of economic and politic talk so they want bring up peoples back with pig flus

I find it hilarious how scientists are "baffled" why people in mexico have died of "swine flu" and nowhere else. To me its so obvious a deaf, dumb, blind, mentally retarded alcoholic could figure it out.

1. Mexico is hot, peoples immune systems in that country are not used to dealing with a flu, like in europe.

2. Its airbore, kinda obvious that the further it travels the weaker the virus would become..

Indeed

I just watched a bunch of nat geo stuff about the world which was quite interesting that took years to dl.

Ketxxx · May 15, 2009

Last thing I DLd was a series called The Universe, quite good.

MilkyWay · May 15, 2009

last program i watched was like something about the crystal skulls and mayans think the world will have another cycle on 2012

i dont watch much tv just addicted to comedy central UK on sky and even tho its a shit rip off im kinda enjoying office USA

occasional CH4 dispatches and those programs are good like horizon on the bbc

of course i watch crap tv but not as much of it as i used to, i dont plan watching tv (like read the tv mag and decided im going to watch this saturday whatever)

Ketxxx · May 15, 2009

I DL what I wanna watch as usually now I'm out fridays, saturdays, sundays, and the occasional day during the week. I'm loved :eek:

ED - Dammit is there no way to avoid that gay smile smiley? :mad:

MilkyWay · May 15, 2009

lol your a social god me im a recluse a hermit and thats the way i like it

DAMN i need to go to bed and get sleep for college i have to pick up a package at the royal mail depot near my house before i go to college

Ketxxx · May 15, 2009

Last 3 weeks I haven't been so social, I'm actually glad of the rest its knackering work everybody demanding my attendance! Whats the package you gotta pick up? Some REAL juicy hardware I hope

Ketxxx · May 16, 2009

I got a good bitch starter. What does everybody make of this 25+ bullshit to buy alcohol from May 25th? Personally, It won't really effect me as I'm 25 in August anyway, but all the same I think its fucking stupid. Next the government will be saying you have to be 30 to buy alcohol :rolleyes:

Whats more retarded is I'll still be old enough to walk into a pub and buy a pint, and be free to sink as many as I want, but I'm not old enough to go and buy a bottle of Russian Standard from Tesco and drink it in a more controlled environment :wtf:

Yeah, well done Gordon Brown, another fucking stupid, retarded motion you went with.

crazy pyro · May 16, 2009

You'd BETTER be taking the piss about that, they're removing all my liberties a 18 months ahead of me getting them... I'll still be able to go to the pub though, 's all ok. I have a feeling the government's gonna be seeing a massive problem from people who have been able to for a couple of years and had the liberty taken away from them.

Ketxxx · May 16, 2009

Unfortunately, I'm not. I saw posters up an shit at my local tesco earlier today when I went to buy some Russian Standard. If age had to be raised at all, make it 23 thats more than fucking old enough, but 25?!?! :wtf:

whatever the government was smoking when they come up with that should be shoved down their throat until they choke.

crazy pyro · May 16, 2009

Aye, you're lucky to only have a couple of months at least I guess.
I'll just end up getting my dad to buy it if I'm having a party anyway, he doesn't care about me drinking so once it's legal he'll relax about it yet more.

MilkyWay · May 16, 2009

you dont NEED TO BE 25 another misunderstood law

ITS THAT YOU NEED ID IF YOU LOOK UNDER 25

you can still buy booze if your 18 if you have a piece of ID, they have given specific types of thigns that qualify for ID

National identity card, liscense, passport, some thign with some EU hologram, some other various things qualify

STUDENT ID does not qualify i tried to use it and had to show my passport to get 1Litre of Bacardi today

I read all this on a leaflet in tesco today and the person at the till assured me of the new rules

they will have a trial day next week
