  1. Since Chromecast, Miracast only devices look like a dead end. I have a receiver I got from Amazon, but it's nothing special. There is a small lag, but I'm not sure why that would make any difference. I start the stream and watch it on TV; I don't care if it runs slightly behind the picture on my phone as I'm not looking at the phone.
  2. It would be hard to form a new first impression.
  3. Please see the message from "JPA Massive" which I've merged in above.
  4. It's got a smaller screen (with higher resolution). You'll have to try one to see if it works for you for reading comics and magazines.. I've no idea about printing. I assume all modern printers support cloudprint and I thought everything could print to cloudprint. Even Apple stuff. I've no experience of Netflix, but I expect the Chromecast does this much more elegantly. I have a miracast box so if I used Netflix I'd stream it wirelessly from my Nexus 4 to the TV.
  5. I have a Nexus 4 and 7 (and a Xoom). They do different jobs. They do those jobs well. The new Nexus phone will replace the Nexus 4. I'll buy a new Nexus 7 when something goes wrong with my existing one. I'll probably buy a Nexus 10 when it gets refreshed as the Xoom is struggling now. It's hard to recommend anything when you don't describe your usage.
  6. Please don't ask which ipad is best in a thread about Android tablets. Thanks.
  7. Your ratings and reactions please. Keep it respectful even if you know everyone else is wrong.

    Can you still get t-mobile SIMs?
  9. According to Apple it is possible to install previous versions of apps. For those having issues you may want to try this until Tapatalk produce a new version.

    Exactly the same way every user of GiffGaff is. You get an affiliate code and tell it to people. I'm guessing you didn't spend much time on the community side of the "community network" This is the way they grow. I've also had two data outages on Three in the last two months.

    If that was to me, I was explaining that today's outage is O2's fault and is affecting a number of their customers. It's not just an GG problem. Tesco monile and any other resellers will also be affected.

    http://status.o2.co.uk/ is still reporting the fault and has been since 10:45. They've not even bothered to update it since 20:00.

    Lots of people on O2 are affected today, so that's hardly GG's fault. It happens. I'd probably stay if I had any confidence they'd actually done something to fix the issues permanently.
  15. The coding of the app is nothing to do with me. I just apply the VillaTalk branding and have to deal with the knobs who are Apple, or the even bigger knobs who are Amazon (although I'm not sure there are any users of that).. I can't fix issues. I didn't write it. The app is made by Tapatalk and works with a large variety of forum software.

    Another outage today, this time it appears to have been O2's fault, but I've requested my PAC. Three outages in 6 days without proper explanation is not good enough. My goodybag renewed overnight (typical), so I've got a month to decide where I'm moving to. I think it'll be Three for the "no additional charge" LTE. Anyone looking at other options?
  17. We have a forum for each match which is very easy to navigate to. We used to have a forum full if topics summarising the away game information. Contributions were so sparse that it was closed. If you are going to use user submitted into, you'll need to moderate it.
  18. Are you planning to act as editors for the information, or will it be user supplied? How will it be funded? And obviously, what does it do that the VillaTalk app doesn't?
  19. I've ordered a Virgin SIM. I'm going to compare the coverage to Three and decide which to move my main number to. This is the second giffgaff outage in 6 days and with no technical explanation I have no belief that they'll fix it permanently. but this is OT in this thread.

    Smart Watches

    My watch is a watch which allows me to control the music player on my phone. It vibrates when I have a call, text, email or hangout. It has an open API and can run 3rd party apps. (It's also waterproof and the battery lasts about 10 days.) So what you are hoping will be available in the future if Google allow has been available for over a year.

    Smart Watches

    I've had a watch for over a year that can do all that (except for the glass thing). It's made by a tiny start up (in fact a kickstarter). I don't see what any of this has to do with Google.

    Smart Watches

    How big is 2% to 10% of the smartphone market? Regardless, I think they'd be happy with that. There is no huge R&D cost here, it's only repackaging. I think 10% of smartphone sales will be at the top of their most optimistic projections. That's still a huge market. The R&D is paid for. This is finding a new channel to exploit the already developed technology. No-one is proposing that smartwatches will take over from smartphones. I think that the wearable market is much larger than you do and that you continue to conflate how you use things with how everyone uses things. Kids seem like a particularly attractive market for smartwatches.
