    Good idea. Hopefully it gets better. Last weekend I woke up and I couldn't even speak hardly.

    Gargle with honey and lemon. That always helps me if my throats knacked. I presume it's nothing medical or are you jsut spending a lot of time singing at the moment?

    Not medical.

    Seriously, how I lost it was working in a call centre for five weeks for eight hours a day. And that has shot it badly.

    On my profile the last one was my real job. The first two are just part time for fun.

    In air-con as well no doubt - shit for the throat.

    That will explain how you got your hands on an iPhone pre-release as well then....

    Excuse my ignorance - what's HTPC? - I assume it's IT related?

    I kept asking for the air-con to be switched off because it was too cold but when there's 40 others against you to keep it on it ain't easy...unfortunately they booted me out before I could get my hands on an iPhone. It was an advance model another guy had that I was playing with, but I wish I could get an iPhone. Very, very cool but no carrier officially supports it here yet. I will get one next year though.

    As for the HTPC, that stands for the ultra-geeky Home Theatre Personal Computer. Mine runs Windows XP Media Centre Edition 2005 with a soon to come big LCD screen. It also has high-definition TV built-in and the entire thing cost me around $700 to build as compared with HP and Acer systems for upwards of $2500 and more.
