It just hasnt filtered through yet to the dealers. If you go for a £49 deal make sure you dont get a refurbed box. Apparently, thats how sky get...

    Skypephone

    I've had it for ages on my 3 phone. In software. You just log into skype like you do on the pc. I've also got msn messenger on it for texts etc. I think these new phones just do the same as what has been around for ages on 3, but have a big skype button on them for retards to use.

    Scratch!

    2 ipods on 1 pc?

    Dual boot into Ubuntu. Put one in Windows and the other on Ubuntu. Get NTFS access on the ubuntu install so you can still acess all the same music as the windows partition.

    Sky T.V

    Sky + is fantastic. Just dont let the monkey they send around to install it anywhere near your central heating pipes with a drill... It will end in tears. I still havent got the cheque for the damage!

    pmsl! At least the man sent them out unlike a whole host of so called pikey sellers on here! I'd just fork out the extra for a nano mate. You'll still want one even if you buy something else.

    minidisc on my PC?

    Look for a Sony netMD walkman. They connect to the PC. You can get the drive to go in the pc IIRC it goes in the 5 1/4 drive bay. You can only get 140mb on each disk and you have to use data mini disks to write data to it.

    Sky+ Installation...fuckwits!

    Viewing card was in the post today. Fair play for them getting it to me that quick. All up and running. Sky+ seems very good. I like the live pause thingy. Loads already in the planner to record. Much better than buying a dooooovd recorder IMO.
