    Zune HD

    No Cookie, he was correct.

    New laptop, recommendations welcome

    Yeah I was looking at that as a contender, what negatives have you found with it?

    New laptop, recommendations welcome

    My FZ31Z has a BD-RW drive, used it precisely once to watch a film. I have a PS3 for that, so the only media use this gets is streaming things via my PS3. Beisdes BD-R is still too expensive for my liking. For the record, I'm not spending my own money... business perk as we're not getting...

    New laptop, recommendations welcome

    Replacing my Vaio FZ31Z (well, I'm keeping it, but it stays on a desk), for a new portable. The failings of this one basically amount to diabolical battery life, buggy touchpad and it's too big (15.4) and heavy to lug around. I do like Vaio laptops, so am weighing up the Z21, and the TT11 range...

    PS3 Surround sound noob.

    Should work in theory, worth £10.

    uh oh...(Palm Pre vs iPhone

    There's many good reasons Flash isn't available yet: http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2008/11/adobe-flash-on/ Pre will be a good product, but it's going lack Apples innovative touch.

    PS3 Surround sound noob.

    Nope, option 1 is the correct method. You'll need to go through Sound setup and tell it to output via optical. 5.1 is all it will carry though, no 7.1HD - you need HDMI for that. I'd suggest checking RicherSounds for a clearance/ex-demo jobbie, see loads for £100.

    blueray players

    Yeah pretty impressive timings, though the only vendor I can see selling it presently is here - http://www.crtprojectors.co.uk/oppo_bdp83.htm For the other £200 I'd have a PS3 and a nice collection of games, or the S350 and a collection of BD's. I'd be gutted if I'd spent out on a profile...

    Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

    Wait until God of War 3 arrives... another fine reason :)

    Indeed, it plays BD's much quicker than most (if not all) BD players to my knowledge?

    PS3 is slow at loading BD?

    Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

    Agreed, anybody that's not played the first should get a copy first. Awesome game in pretty much every sense. High hopes for the second, couldn't give a monkeys about the MP mode though, hope it doesn't detract from the SP at all.

    iOS "must have" apps

    Re: iphone appstore must haves? Peggle is indeed pretty addictive. Anybody bought NeedForSpeed or Tiger yet? Also noticed Resident Evil is out for it now.

    Have 2Mbit Virgin broadband? Read me.

    I later found out that they throttle you to 75% your connection speed if you down a fixed amount during 'peak' hours. There's a breakdown somewhere, but it's like 750mb between 10am-3pm and 1500mb between 4pm-8pm. Homo's!

    Have 2Mbit Virgin broadband? Read me.

    Back in the day it was just modifying a docsis file, which in later revisions had a certificate attached to it. Not sure the old modems still work though, good old Surfboard :) My line is up and down like a cheap wh0re, sometimes 9Mbit, now 2 again....one more day of it and I'll be phoning...

    Ear phones, which ones ?

    Skullcandy are fine, if all you ever listen to is DnB. Muddy sounding things, much like Sony!

    iOS "must have" apps

    Re: iphone appstore must haves? Champ is shite, on any format. Sigames ftfw. Tiger Woods could be good, also looking at Need for Speed - anybody bought them yet?

    Have 2Mbit Virgin broadband? Read me.

    Well I filled in my registration on the 10th, and they upgraded me to 10Mbit yesterday, not bad...but it must be automated, they're never that efficient.

    Ear phones, which ones ?

    Get some Jays for under £50. Over £50 I'd recommend my Shure SE-210's.

    Probably racists.
