No, just some SciFi boxset, Airwolf movie on Blu Ray, documentary boxset about Anceint Civilizations and a dvd of a movie called Wolf Hound that I bought purely for the name alone.

Love Copy / Paste

I know it's a huge cliché, but there really is nothing better than being in a big warm bed with the rain hammering off the windows....

Otis Driftwood

Unless there is someone there with you that is!

Sauve

Touché :rolleyes:
Unless he's hogging the covers/farting of course....

Otis Driftwood

What ever about the farting (women fart in bed too btw) women are terrible blanket hoggers.

Sauve

But we're cold creaturs!
That's where two duvets overlapping comes in handy - no fights whatsoever...:pac:

Ye should all come with a sleeping bag so ye can be sectioned away.

Worst moral dilemma ever (complete exaggeration by the way!:)) this Friday night:
head home and watch "Late Late Toy Show" with the family (mother even recorded "The Santa Clause" so we could all watch it together..when the hell did mother learn how to record actually, baffling!)
Or...
Head over to Dundalk and go on a sesh with a female former work mate (awful slim chance...ie. If I have my way...a bit of an aul smoochy smooch)

Too true! Christmas lunch with work today

Morning all.Im thinking of upgrading my phone to an android/iphone,anyone here give me some ideas re androids like which is best,which should be avoided etc.

Dravokivich

Got myself a Galaxy S and I'm liking it, but use it a lot and barely lasts a day. Only thing I'd really recommend looking into would be how long a charge lasts for. Other then that it's all preference in regards to what specs you'd want really. With Andriod being a shared platform it doesn't make sense to me to get cought up in the brand / model all that much.

nozzferrahhtoo

If you are in any way technically inclined at all then consider getting a phone you can Flash the OS off. I got a HTC HDC phone and I wiped it and put on Windows 6.5. I then put Android on a memory card. So now I can select which OS to boot my phone into. I play with other Oses too when I get bored, win7 and the like.

There are lots of forums, most notably the XDA developers forum, which give you step by step near idiot proof guides on how to do all this, and what to do if you need to trouble shoot, and there are new and slicker OSes with modifcations there to play with that add features and apps you wouldnt get as standard.

I imagine there are placed on boards.ie too discussing the hows and whys of doing this.

Getting the Samsung Galaxy S2 myself this Christmas I'd say - it's marginally better than the HTC Sensation from the looks of things but they'd be the two main one's in the market right now

Galaxy SII FTW I have it and I love it! Now if I use it all a lot I need to charge it. I also got a second battery as it was 5euro on Ebay so that is handy to have! Or if you are going to go the whole hog the new Samsung Galaxy Nexus...

Is the camera good on it - haven't had a camera for ages and would like one that's somewhat good to take pics on nights out and so on - I know it's 8mp but is the flash and image quality good?

Panthro

Pfft, Sony Xperia Play all the way Otis!
You are at work, you haven't much to do...ohh what that? Why its "Fifa" or "Crash Bandicoot" or many other games on my phone that I'll use to pass the time. And look, it looks like a real controller thingymagiggy. (that's technical lingo right there...ahem!)
Pfffworr!:D

I have the HTC Desire S and the Galaxy S II. Both android and both sweet phones. however the call quality and sound is better on the Desire S and the screen and camera are much better on the S II. The SII has more on board memory than the Desire S. Both have decent battery life.

Its all down to personal taste really. My bro has the iPhone 4s and its his 3rd iPhone. He swears by them but hates Android phones. Id take or leave iPhones to be honest.

If you want something small and light the HTC Wildfire S is a decent phone.

iPhones have better stability, so that's their selling point for meeee. Although I don't actually have a smartphone, still rockin' the aul nokia, don't even know if it has a camera on it.

Dravokivich

Turn it around and see if there's a shiney little plastic/glass like circle on the back.

Not trying to get into an apple bashing session - their products are cool but could you elaborate on what you mean by stability?

If you lay it horizontally on a table, it won't fall over.

Pembily

I find the camera very good I love it BUT its a big phone physically!

Had an amazing work Christmas dinner and all gluten free then went shopping in Dundrum while tipsy - BAD idea

Evening all!

Sauve

Tipsy shopping is the business!
You buy stuff you'd never usually look twice at. And it usually works out well.
Jaysus, I sound like I do this all the time

Otis Driftwood

The first step is admitting you have a problem Sauv.

Sauve

Hi my name is Sauv.
I've been drunk ebay/etsy/schuh free for four days now.
It's difficult but I have good family and friends around me who have helped me kickstart the recovery progress.
You know who you are guys.
Tomorrow I cancel my eleven credit cards.....
:pac:

D'Agger

Christmas tree up in my first proper home away from home in almost two years, white russians in the belly and my staff party is on tomorrow night....Nice
