Audi's R8 goes all-electric

Acceleration is what its about..

@Anonymous Coward 08:10 GMT..."My old Ford Focus will be faster than a Leccy supercar, brilliant....." Before your old focus could accelerate to even 100 the Audi would be miles away.

@Greg J Preece "...slower, has a much shorter range, and costs a lot more?

I bet they'll be queuing round the block for that one..." Its not for sale so how do u know what it costs ??

@ every one saying Faraday Cage

When your car gets zapped by lightning its body work acts as a Faraday Cage, but that doesn't stop your mobile phone working.

@ Martin 19 "the power of microwave ovens is limited by the power output of a domestic mains socket, after taking into account the effeciency of the magnetron." If that were true then microwave ovens in the states would take twice as long to cook as ours because of there 110v system. But they don't cos your wrong.

Thumb Up

Nice machine

I like it. More poke than an Atom based machine, a decent amount of memory and a decent amount of storage space. All topped off with a nice screen at 1366x768. A little more expensive than a netbook but a much better machine. I'll take one :)

@Paul Crawford

No mention of use with LINUX or Mac, why?

"Apple's Time Machine isn’t supported natively, but a few users have reported the hacks listed on Qnap’s forum get it working."

If your going to comment read the bloody article first..

@handle

So where is this mythical camera with the massive sensor and only 3 mega pixels ? Should have zero noise at any ISO setting cos the pixel density would be so low...... but it don't exist, cos density was never the prob. Remember the Fugi F30 ? it used Super CCD sensor with octagonal pixels. This INCREASED pixel density and also LOWERED noise.

Get your facts stright.

@Phil Arundell

When will people like yourself get your heads out your ass ? The Viewty has a great camera compared to other camera phones, and that is what it was compared to. Comparing it to an SLR is just silly. And noise is caused by a lack of light and/or too much gain on the sensor, NOT pixel density.
