    Nikon 35mm f1.8G £99.99

    still at £99.99 tho, and I believe folks where saying Tesco was also selling it at this price but tesco is out of stock... I took the plunge, hopefully I got in when it was only a 2 day delay not a 2 week one.

    Transferring Photos to iPad

    does I tunes not also "optimise" the images for you and shrink the size? its a shame there has not been more "photo" tools for it, my wife just brought an ipad and we took it on holiday and is totally smitten with it, but was a little upset there was no way to get the photos from my camera onto...

    iphone 4 idea is very clever

    their marketing for this phone is very good, apart from the front facing camera and an improved screen (over the pretty bad 3gs screen by todays standards), its pretty much the same as the 3gs yet each bit has been "hyped" as something new and much better when in reality its just been polished a...

    The free macbook pro's they hand out and pwn to own says the can also, and 10k usd they get ontop of the free lappy. this year they got full shell access and code execution via remote expliot in a webpage as far as i can remember, so thats it whatever the writer wanted to do he could, it was...

    iPhone 4 - UPDATE: Signal Issues

    The Evo is a 4G device so is superior in that way, but as Sprint (who have the 4G netowork) dont carry the iphone its not really a loss that apple dont support it as the phone will never log onto it. the evo has a memory card slot ? its bigger? clutching at straws here, the rest is a...

    Fast 'remote' support solution for local network

    It will go out to the web to get onto the pc, this is part of its magic so it can bypass NAT and other complications, then I believe it will go peer to peer, so in your case it "should" run locally. IT does not funnel everything through their servers, this would be slow and costly for them...

    So who's laughing now, Apple or Adobe.

    flash is just a good target because its multi platform and multi browser, so by targetting it you are effectivly going after every device at once, so it really is a victim of its own sucess. if this is in relation to flash not being on the iphone as steve does not like it, this does not...

    free web building software

    there are a few people in the office that use http://www.w3.org/Amaya/ instead of frontpage as its free, they seem to get on ok but have really limited use of it, they mostly insert page links etc between pre formed html documents.

    Best £500 17" laptop for photography?

    do they even make 4:3 laptops any more? I cant think of any off the top of my head, even less that would be 17" in size..... for just photos I would have thought any recent laptop would work well, make sure you get an i5 or i7 I suppose and not a legacy core2duo if you can afford it, but...

    iPhone 4 - UPDATE: Signal Issues

    I am not a developer but a good friend is so I see alot more on this side that others I suppose, and I do try to come up with ideas for the company, but the app rules are a pain in the rear end mostly lol, but regarding multitasking iphone os4 does not multitask it just has very good state...

    iPhone 4 - UPDATE: Signal Issues

    I would say, multi tasking, call stability, un restricted application distribution and fair native app rules applied fairly to all, so flash and no rejections just because apple dont like it etc... I really like the palms standpoint, the pre itself was not perfect, but I think palms vision...

    Alternative to BT Home Hub

    i think the home hub is decent for a free one, tbh its about as good as a netgear, none are great unless you plump for cisco.... if you want a decent one you could go for a fritzbox which are german linux based devices and quite well regarded, or get a compatable device and stick open wrt...
