3 calls foul on T-Mobile price promise

all liars

Mascara adverts, where the model has artificial lashes on, but it only says in tiny letters

Car adverts where the price on screen ISN'T for the car on the screen

Sales & Marketing = scum

US cops taser groom, cuff drunken bride

@ David Wiernicki - get your facts right!

They only shot him in the face 8/9 times, and they even managed to miss him once, from point-blank range!

Europe too cynical for iPhone

it's crap that's why

It might have a flash interface, but compare what it can actually do to a decent pocket pc and it's piss-poor

and it's bloody expensive too, you can get a PPC for £0 with a contract

New euro coin stuffs Turkey

European my arse

Turkey has just voted in an islamic leader.

The Bosphorous (& the Urals) is the border between Europe & Asia

Turkey is NOT European, so should stay out of the EU

Israel aint European either, so why do they play in our footy/singing competitions? They should learn to play nicely with thier neighbours

wtf are you on about? If you want to spout random crap, please keep it to yourself

Religious hatred a crime from October, but exemptions are wide

can I dis religion?

I'm not planning on hating religion (law-abiding citizen etc) but as an athiest, I have ZERO respect for anyone's religious views, as I do for anyone who believes in Santa Claus or the tooth-fairy.

So is it still ok to laugh at people's religious views, tell them they are wasting thier life, there is no heaven waiting for them, and that they are being conned by by thier priests?

After all, they coming knocking on my door on a f******* saturday morning (when I feel like I'm in hell anyway) telling me I'm going to hell unless I believe in thier god.

Apple restricts ringtone rights

I've said it before, but it's worth repeating

Aple fanboys are gimps

How many comments on here are defending apple?

Why don't you just send Jobs all your money, then drop your pants, bend over, and let him shaft you as hard as he likes while repeating, "please sir, have another buck"?

Britannia triumphs over Johnny Metric

Hourses for courses

When I'm on my bike I prefer miles, as I have no idea if 25km/hr is fast or slow, but I know 18m/hr is quite fast on the flat.

If I'm measuring something small, cm/mm is much easier than inches. 10 and 13/16th inches is MUCH harder to work with than 265mm, and metres & yards are abou the same.

When I'm walking up a hill I like to use km & metres, i.e. 4km along, 1000 metres up, makes working out how steep it is easy. Try that with 2.5 miles and 1,100 yards.

1kg = 2lbs ish. Couldn't be easier

Metric is much easier all round, but it's hard to stop your heading working in imperial , as I have been since I was born

AVG cries wolf at Adobe Reader

F*****g adobe!

it's Friday....

<rantOn>

Every single time you load a pdf , BEFORE it displays the doc, adobe reader goes off to the net, and tells you there is a CRITICAL update that simply must be installed right this f****** minute, and often wants a re-boot after that!!!

It's a document reader, as long as it can open a doc, there is NOTHING critical to update

</rantOn>

So, Adobe, thanks for the free doc reader, now p*** off

Solar waves make Earth ring like a bell

Not according to Cosmos on TV last night

"g-mode vibrations are not optically detectable. But the evidence of the waves is there, and easily detectable, in data on Earth"

Really? I watched Cosmos on BBC2 last night, and there has been built a massive thing to detect gravity waves, which are so weak it is easier to detect a (sea) wave hitting a beach 6 miles away.

They are hoping to detect one in about 2012

Pirated Simpsons movie traced to phone

entire movie on a phone, no prob

Don't see why not, my phone records at 640x480, and I've made recordings 20 mins long which were only 100+mb, so a 100 min movie (dunno how long it actually is) would only be about 1/2 a gig.

Maybe you need to upgrade your fone

iPhone's keyboard prompts patent violation suit

a what?

WTF is a "method and medium for computer readable keyboard display incapable of user termination"

Sounds like a touch-screen keyboard to me, but what does "incapable of user termination" mean? That it can't be turned off?

I didn't realise you could patent the bleeding obvious

Adobe bends to might of US printers

Critical update my asre

It does my head in that almost every time you open a pdf that Adobe reader prompts you to download a "critical update".

It's a document reader, FFS! The only critical thing it needs to do is open a doc, any updates after that are non-ctitical, and a pain in the rear

Nokia offers assistance for unresponsive GPS phones

Not just Nokias

I've tried out 2 Orange SPV M700s, the models with a Magellan GPS device. They were ok in getting a 2D lock, but both are crap when calculating elevation, consistently reporting a figure about 60m too high.

Fine for SatNav, but no good with MemoryMap: When mountain climbing, it's worse than useless.

The T-Mobile equivilant, with a Sirf3 GPS, is much better

YouTube - uTube showdown stays alive in federal court

asinine?

"operated uTube.com..since 1996... YouTube's launch in 2005"

"Ok so let me get this right utube opens its website after Youtube ..."

In what asinine world is 1996 AFTER 2005?
