iTunes Sync isn't run from the phone. It's run on the PC. http://www.binaryfortress.com/iTunes-Sync/Help/ Then all you should do is plug your phone into the PC and set it to "disk Drive" or transfer files or whatever the option is called that mounts it as a drive letter. The other option is...

The screen on the 550D is well worth it. I have a 450D and my mate has a 550D, the difference is stunning, twice the resolution. If it's anything like my 450D then you have to go into the custom settings menu to enable Liveview in the firstplace.

You don't hate BT. You merely dislike them. Wait until you have to actually work with them. Our company looks after 100+ firewalls for BT, so we have to deal with the Indian side of their business all the freaking time. If you think it's bad trying to get your point across to a call centre...

What happened to Maemo? I thought that was Nokias new smartphone platform. I really liked those. I had a P800 back when they first came out. It was pretty pimp. I used to love the bluejacker app in bars in central london back when everyones bluetooth stacks were horribly insecure and would...

Not sure that's true for all phones, just the iPhone. I use my Nexus for tethering all the time, in fact I've been tethering phones for a couple of years at least on the same account with no additional charges. 02 on the other hand are f*****s, work gave me a spare mobile for work use when...

I know that it was just a teaser video, but that looked rather interesting, the side on shot (@ 21 secs) made it look like it was half the thickness of all the other current smartphones.

Don't hold me to this, but that's probably because XP disables routing by default. So you can't route through it. IIRC there's a registry setting somewhere. I remember having to change it when I used a laptop was a wireless/ethernet bridge to steal WiFi :-)

The server. All your router is doing is passing the packets from it to the server. If it doesn't work, it's because it's not sending the GRE through. Have a read of this http://business.forums.bt.com/t5/Broadband-and-internet/PPTP-Passthrough/td-p/7759 and see if you can forward IP protocol 47.

Have a read of http://www.home-network-help.com/pptp-vpn-server.html Not sure if it will allow more than one person at a time to connect though when connecting to an XP machine. Also depends on whether your router supports PPTP passthrough.

The Google program is called SketchUp. You could do a 3-d plan of your kitchen with that.

Get a copy of WaveSecure instead. Works like a charm.

Speedball Speedball II Elite Xenon II: Megablast Sensible Soccer Many many more.

I bet that his Health and Safety self assessment won't say that. :rasp: Especially if it's getting on towards the end of the day....

A while ago, I was clearing some space on a firewall. I sort of accidently ran "rm * -r" on the wrong directory :(. For those that don't know Unix commands that basically says "delete everything in this directory and everything in every subdirectory under it", it turns out I wasn't in the /tmp...

It's an interesting field. Even if you have some pretty decent networking experience, it's a bit of a major change. I went from working for the network team for a fairly large company (7-8 european sites, MPLS/VPN etc) doing switching, routing and firewalls to my current place and I spent the...

Look for an app called "JuiceDefender" on the market (it's free, there is a paid addon called UltimateJuice which give you extra stuff). I've been running it and its sorted out my battery life. My phone was 100% when I got into work this morning, and it's sat on 80% 6 hours later.*...

I'm a senior escalation engineer for a networking security management company. Upwards of 500+ firewalls and other devices (proxies, load balancers, routers, the occasional switch), look after worldwide VPNs etc.

This is the link that explains how to get 2.2 running on the Joggler.

It's on my home PC. I'll look it out this evening, it's fairly simple IIRC. Take a memory stick, partition it with 3 partitions (FAT32/EXT2/FAT32), copy the Android image onto the first WIN32 partition, stick it in the joggler and boot. Though I also just found this (while trying to find that...

though if it gets pissy about it. use href="./lightbox.css"

I should think so. This is a lightbox type script referenceing a css in a folder. <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/lightbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen" /> In theory, all you would need to do is change that to <link rel="stylesheet" href="lightbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />...

They really brought it on themselves by removing the OtherOS option. Until that point the tinkerers had no real need to be hacking the hardware to run anything else, as they could already do everything they wanted, such as build supercomputer clusters with them. Now they have no path to get...

Yes, but you will probably need to do both source and destination NAT unless you decide to route their new real addresses to the router and then make sure that you don't ever use them internally. For instance, if they are using 192.168.55.x and you are currently not, then as long as you never...

Take a look at the Advent Vega. It's being sold by PC World/Dixons/Currys. £250 or so, runs Android 2.2, has a NVidia Tegra 2 chip in it. Only downside is no 3g, but that doesn't really matter if you have a mobile phone that can act as a hot spot. I've borrowed one from a mate at work for a...

ebay's pretty much gonna be the only place now. They don't produce them any more, they were produced only for o2 based on the OpenPeak OpenFrame 7. When o2 dropped the price to £50 they all went in about 10 mins flat, which I suspect was o2's idea, they probably had a s**t load sat in a...

I've recently managed to get Android 2.2 (Froyo) running on my Joggler. Works pretty nicely. Certain things don't work (flash being one of them :dapprove:) due to it being an x86 system, but it works well enough for a bedside browser/media player.

Virtuallt all modern stuff will accept SDHC, and they're probably cheaper because more get made. No use making millions of something that's effectivly an outdated standard when something has superceeded it.

Take a look at the Google Nexus S. It's the new Android "standard" phone. It'll be the first handset with 2.3 on it. Also doesn't have any of the annoying manufacturer overlays or any other such crap on them, and I don't think it'll even have carrier modifications as it is a "Full Google...

SDHC is Secure Digital High Capacity. It is a specific extension to the SD standard for cards over 4GB. (though some SD only devices can only ready upto 1GB) So, greater than 4GB will always be SDHC. SDHC devices will read SD cards, if a device is built to the SD standard though (i.e. older...
