    Doesn't sound from last time like they're going to budge.

    Meant to ask actually - I remember you saying that you were using Sennheiser CX300's (correct?). Apart from your current problems,how have you found them? I'm thinking of getting some as I have trouble with normal buds staying in my ears

    yep thats the ones I have. They are excellent. The sound quality from them is top notch, they block out lots of external noises. They will hurt a little and feel wierd for at least 2 days but once your used to them you'l never look back. The rubber buds do wear a little and begin to feel a little loose after a while and you only get one pair of each size and i'm not sure if you can pick up replacements but thats the only negative I have. I couldn't recommend them more.

    A huge leap forward from standard buds.

    I think amazon has them at in and around the 15 quid mark too

    Good enough for me. Ordered. £15.45 - bargain, especially when you look what Apple wanted for them!!

  6. I found this amazing of what a $100 laptop could do. The idea is to provide kids who have never used technology in their lives (e.g. mobiles, music players, computers) to give them a sense of being able to use technology.

    It uses pretty basic specs (450MHz AMD Geode CPU, 256MB RAM, 1GB flash memory) and runs completely on open-source software like OpenOffice.org, Linux, Firefox. And it even comes with WiFi, three USB2.0 ports, video-camera and over 16 hours of hours of battery life.



    Or see laptop.org

    Which dollars are we talking - American or Australian? Still seems quite a bargain for what it's offering to the right market to me
