Super close to actual size BTW.
Was so awesome with the crappy plastic slide over the numbers which came off really easily and hence everyone (but me) lost it.


:lol:

I never knew they had a plastic slide thingy! Mine didn't have one when a friend gave me it, and I'd never seen one on them until this photo!

I had the old alcatel, thought it was awesome, then went to the noka that was that horrible dull green colour, since then I've had about 10 phones and now have my iPhone :)

I finished college in 99. No one had cellphone thens...but you know, Porirua. So if someone did have a phone - likely it wasn't actually theirs.

This is kinda like my current phone..but I think mines older. And much fatter.

Had one of those Alcatel ones as well during uni. Badass black one. Even then I think I was about 4 years behind the times. Meh.

Ziph question.

Brother has a Netbook by machine. bought it back in Feb and all was fine. BUt in the past two weeks it is has had the wireless cut out after 15 minutes. He repairs the wireless and it works fine for another 10 minutes then cuts out. I have updated the wireless drivers, run a virus and malware scan (IMVB toolbar was installed for some odd reason) but nothing seems to be working. he is running XP, and model is 350.

The same thing was happening to me a while ago and what ended up fixing it was changing the wireless network channel. There are four networks my computer can see, and they were all clumped around 6, so I moved ours down to 3 and the problem was pretty much solved.

I also had a wireless issue with it all of a sudden cutting out and the signal being extra weak etc, but it was after a driver update (instead i'm Vista) but to fix it i rolled back the wireless driver to the previous version and it went back to normal. By the looks its not the same sorta issue, but thought i'd share that just in case it somehow helped.

I'll be back home tonight, so I'll try and help you out then Jords.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Dion really needs to install the Tapatalk or similar plugin to this forum so it's easier to use on a smartphone.

They promise a year though, can't get away with it!

I just can't fathom spending $900 on a phone, or however much it is in a proper store.

Might roll the dice. Maybe.

Good, free MP4 to MP3 full converter? I'm bored as with the 1000+ songs at work and want to play different music that I have legally paid for. It would be nice if it was easier. :roll:

For that price find a provider that'll provide a phone, with phone and data connection in your monthly price range.

Got my wife one. Root it and install a custom ROM from XDA (I put MIUI on the wifes), overclock it to 1.3Ghz, good as.
Not bad standard either.

Just in the last few days my comp has been doing some weird shit, it's all to do with the keyboard. For instance if I listening to music using windows media player while typing something in here and I press the 'A' key it changes the song playing. The last letter of the alphabet key doesn't work, I can't use the shift key as it makes the cursor jump backwards, to the 'subject' window just above where I am typing.
It's driving me nuts...please help.
