That's very like the HP 10" I have for travelling. It's a neat little unit and much more sturdy and useful than an ipad. When I was working in Vietnam earlier this year, my boss brought her ipad and then couldn't use it because the hotel only had wired internet and you have to have an adapter to enable that for ipad. It's that kind of silly omission from the build that puts me off tablets.

Just one tip re Windows 7 Starter: you can't change the desktop wallpaper without downloading a little widget. Drove me nuts til I worked it out. Let me know if you need pointing in the right direction.

Anyone have any idea if it's possible to burn a 10 GB HD video onto a DVD? or 2? or do i need to compress it to at least 8 GB for the specific 8 GB DVDs? (since most DVD's do 4 GB) I specifically want to burn glasto onto a DVD and give it to a friend that missed it and doesn't think U2 can function without the claw (long story)

I've just drank a smoothie made from old F5 keyboard buttons.It was very refreshing.

Why did I find that so funny?

I shall be in touch. I've no idea how much of a compromise Starter is.

Images can be embedded into the mp3 files in the same manner as other tags (artist, album, etc)

I dont do that, i just use an external image, so dont know much about it either. I know Mp3tag can embed images, also the latest foobar2000 can do it.

Dont know about iTunes or Windows Media Player.
