But the iPad does everything that a computer does for pretty much all casual computer users, it's a no brainer, it's way better than sitting in the corner of the room with a desktop. It's better than a laptop because the battery lasts longer, it's lighter, it's easy to hold and so forth. For...

They're also American.

Except that the iPad filled the needs of 95% of computer users, people failed to see that in the post back then. You'll find most people use their laptop/computer for email, facebook and surfing the web. The iPad fills those needs perfectly, it's lightweight, battery lasts ages - i.e it's a...

That just about sums it up. The watch was a s**t idea when Samsung did it, its still s**t when apple do it.

Video broke after I dissed Ives....have they said how long the battery will last? Will it be "what time is it?"....checks watch....battery dead...gets out phone...." Oh its...."

At least women will know which guys to avoid.

Jonny Ives now and the stream is working. f**k. Stop working, please, save me from this dullard.

Doesn't Lewis Hamilton realise he's got a grand prix this weekend?

Mine just dropped and then came back up at 150Mbit. Woot.

I concur. We have the W905 and it's brilliant. Personally, I'd hang off 4K until people stop titting about with codecs, I believe netflix have just announced which 4K codec they're using and surprise surprise there are lots of 4K TVs out there which don't support it. Let the early adopters...

You can buy them in currys if that's more convenient. I did that last time my cable went up in a puff of smoke, Apple store meant a ride out to kingston and I could walk to currys....so that was the easier solution. Of course, the environmentally friendly thing for apple to do would be to make...

My sr80e's have just been delivered. Awesome.

Another man who ranks job satisfaction and life over a crappy job. I personally couldn't think of anything worse than a "promotion" that takes me away from doing what I love most. From solving puzzles to shuffling paper. No ta. I couldn't even begin to imagine waking up in the morning and...

Do people still buy music? (we use Spotify & Google All Access) Anyway, a summary: Apple continued with their "head in the sand - our way is the right way approach". Forstall got pushed. Apple have since then actually listenened (or observed) and have added stuff that needed to be added to...

jQuery. There are loads of "database" controls for it, check out DataTables etc. It'll just use a PHP script to perform database access.

Show me a piece of software that works as well as the sonos interface that uses the pi and I'll agree with you! ;) Don't get me wrong, I've used Linux and embedded devices (I work on embedded systems) since the first release of Linux....all those years ago and as much as I love open source...

Out of interest Danny, seeing as you have lots of knowledge on the sonos stuff, what are your thoughts on the connect:amp? Price/sound quality?

Sure. I totally get that. Without knowing what the original posters idea of budget is then its hard to know what's a reasonable cost, but when I see raspberry pi mentioned I start seeing pence signs rather than pound signs! I'll go back to my children's room now. ;)

I guess that's true for the play:3 and play:5, but the play:1 speakers look pretty darned good and we've got them in our lounge! it's nice to be able just to unplug them and move them into the garden as well! I guess its down to personal taste, and if you're using the connect:amp then you could...

I'm confused! First post sonos is way over budget, next you're talking about sonos connect:amp which is expensive on its own and requires you to add your own speakers?! You also don't need everything to be connected to Ethernet, just one device in the system (you can buy a bridge specifically...
