    Any way that I can help you if you need it is great. Ah well, let us know if they worked whenever you try it out.
  2. Think i'm gonna try a Samsung NC10 netnook. Looks good, well specced, not too expensive, big hard-drive. Lack of DVD burner is a vummer but how else could they keep weight and price down? And an external one will only cost a few quid. I'll also prefer the familiarity of XP over linux.

    Inline volume control would be a nice addition though


    Okay, will do! That's great that they will block out a lot of the outside noise, often I listen to it in the car.

    I was looking at the headphones on the Apple website a few days ago, and there was a headphone with the volume control, and a sound recorder (mainly for voice memos, etc.). But they cost $79, a bit much for a pair of headphones in my opinion.
  4. Drew, that poddox thing didn't work. I followed the link and formatted and it's now fine, iTunes recognized it but said you need to restore, so I'm getting the software now

    Awesome to hear that it's all going, in time for No Line On The Horizon!


  6. Yep. Either that or for the new single. I'm still at a loss as to why iTunes stopped recognizing it.


  7. I remembered when I read that apple link you gave me, a few months back, right by the time I stopped using it...it was working fine, I would connect it load it with stuff and take it with me, then one day when I connected it suddenly windows gave me this message that the drive needs to be formatted. I didn't do it because I had lots of my university project files on it, and it survived, but iTunes wouldn't recognize it anymore.
  8. I got that with my classic numerous times. No more problems now...it's been passed down.

    No such problems with the touch. All that does is sit there on the Apple logo if something is wrong. It's easy to fix if you know how.
  9. So much for the unbreakable, unhackable, impossible-to-modify 2G iPod touch...

    iPod Touch 2G Jailbroken by the iPhone Dev Team

    The 2nd generation iPod touch proved a tricky customer to break, but the Dev Team has made the first big step toward a full-on jailbreak.

    The Dev Team stumbled upon the break when making yellowsn0w, the iPhone jailbreaker and network unlocker, but says the touch's jailbreak is far too manual to be done by most people at this point. But this is the first big breakthrough and it's become a focus of the Team's efforts. Once again, Apple can't seem to make anything the Team can't break.

    From what I've heard from a few devs, the touch turns on with the Apple logo and the spinning circle but doesn't boot to the springboard (main screen with apps, time, WiFi etc). You need to then run the jailbreak and apply it every time at boot, then it boots fine with Cydia, Terminal etc. So this is what the article means when it says it is "far too manual".

    But when you turn it off, the touch needs to be jailbroken again. This is the main problem they've been having with it. Progress, bloody brilliant...

    amazing! Are they gonna keep working on it to make it...less manual? It will be great for us here, as we can't get anything from the Apps store or iTunes, not even the free stuff.

    Yeah - I think what will happen is they'll try and fix the boot problem. I've no idea how long that's gonna take - and then you'll get to do the jailbreak through QuickPwn.

    Then you'll have something like this if you want:




    Unlock screen with custom weather widget coded in HTML and Javascript.





    Some custom settings icons.





    The main screen or springboard with numeric battery and custom WiFi title.





    SBSettings for accessing settings quickly and easily, by swiping over the status bar.
