    I think Windows 7 will be like Vista if we talk about the looks. Windows XP was, in some way, similar to good old Windows 95. Same goes for Windows 98 and ME. Vista was some new concept and they won't throw it away that easily. I hope my laptop can survive trough Vista. I might buy a new one with 7 on it. It's my favourite number afterall.


    512MB for Vista does work. It does not work very well, unless it's Home Basic or Starter. XP was a nice-looking system, but those looks belong back in 1998. I reckon 2000 looked the best.


    About that Palm phone, the interface looks very nice, much nicer than the default iPhone and iPod touch one, and looks better than those devices. Which I might now make a theme for my touch just like that. Palm has always been a great brand and always coming up with great ideas. Pity it's not in Australia yet, but when it is...I reckon I'll be getting one.

    And the website for it is here: http://www.palm.com/us/products/phones/pre/index.html

    Very, very nice looking device. But what exactly is a Web OS? Like it relies a lot on the internet for doing various things, but retains the use of it offline too? People are always trying to find the next 'iPhone killer'. There's nothing such as an iPhone killer, but a rival to the millions of them around the world.

    I'm gonna upload my new touch interface a bit later when I've got it right. Right now it looks completely strange but it's almost there.

    True..it does work, but it's far from ideal.

    The Nokia 5800 Express Music should have been the phone to take on the iPhone but sadly Nokia priced it through the roof and it has slipped by relatively un-noticed. I'll get one when the price drops.


    The Nokia is indeed looking nice, and you're right, I didn't know about it.
    The Palm does look nice, guess it's a bit bulky judging by the slide-keyboard...I wanna know the price!!

    Hope somebody can help with this Ipod Query. My Ipod has started cutting off the end of newly transferred songs somtimes by up to a minute. The recordings in the library are complete and I have been sorting it by deleting off the player and re-transfering this seems to work fine. A small inconvienience but annoying

    Me too. Is Casper writing a reply above? All I can see is a quote and a blank line?


  6. Argyle's message...from a topic he opened. I said to him that I would copy his question, so feel free to answer him.

    A physical keyboard always beats a touchscreen and I do love the slide out format (check out Nokia's upcoming N97). The abount of typos I make on my ipod is unreal.

    He might want to restore the iPod.

    I'll wait until the release candidate later. The original beta version of Vista, when I was testing it, sucked to no end, but the release candidate (builds 5600 and 5728) were much better and more reliable.


    I'll skip it too, it needs double the RAM of Vista (1 GB) and Vista is already a system hog.
