    Google TV

    It seems you can get some cheap USB stick versions on eBay which appear to run a version of Android but not Google TV. The Sony box appears to be the best of the bunch but with CES starting there are rumours of several other partners coming on board. It potentially could be great if Google takes it seriously. But the could also be the downfall.

    Google TV

    Pretty much as the title states, anyone got one, is it any good.
  3. One of the few occasions on VT that I and Rob are in total agreement....
  4. Quite enjoyed first two thirds but then it didn't really go anywhere fast
  5. Anybody mentioned George Michael....... If not wham he is the man.
  6. NRC Shorey L. Young Sidwell Beye Makoun Heskey Carew Friedel Warnock Davies Dunne Hutton Ireland Given Nzogbia. Work out how much was paid in transfer fees, how much in wages and then subtract what we have got / will get back in transfer fees and theres your answer.........
  7. No not really. He is pretty good at looking after his tech stuff.
  8. My son bought COD Black Ops 2 with some Christmas money and we have been playing on line - rather good fun. However out of his 5 controllers 4 of them have the issue where it keeps disconnecting because the battery compartment appears to be loose. I have ordered 2 rechargable packs from ebay and last night spent a good half hour cleaning all the contacts etc because there is nothing more annoying than being ready to blast someone and your controller disconnects. Has anyone else had this problem.
  9. The fact that the bosses will piss off at lunchtime and yet still expect everyone else to work a full day.
  10. Working in the print design industry I come across so many Iphone users because they have macs and it just makes sense, however since the 5 came out it quite amazing how many have changed to Android and at least 3 have the Note II
  11. Watching the first half of the last episode of Homeland I was thinking it was one episode too far and that they should have really ended it after number 11 but the final half hour was excellent. I do know wonder if the theories about the mole in series one are actually correct. For Brody to choose Carrie over his wife just doesnt make sense................on any level.
  12. So if we buy him for £300,000 we have saved £200,000.
  13. Have to say the HTC Droid DNA / J Butterfly is a stunning looking phone - I could be tempted if it came out in the UK at a reasonable cost.
  14. I wonder if Google will look at moving the Nexus announcement back next year to give themselves more time to get the handsets/tablets out for Xmas...... I see Three can now sell the Nexus 4 but bloody hell they are taking the piss with the contract ...£35 a month over two years (which of course is the most expensive tariff they offer. £25 a month sim only), plus a £29 one-off fee for the phone. £869.00 in total so they are pretty much just adding the cost of the phone onto the contract - no subsidy at all.
  15. Who was offered to us first but we couldnt afford to pay the fee upfront in one hit............tragic.
  16. Not in a good way from first couple of times use.
  17. Not a big fan of Will Ferrell but Elf is brilliant
  18. Sorry Rev but ironically for this thread I missed out IT from the first bit. It should have read if your carrier supports IT the Nexus 4 will operate at a much faster data speed. As you rightly say only O2 and 3 currently support it at this point, not sure if Tesco & Giffgaff will also support it as they piggyback of the O2 network. It will be interesting to get some real life figures from Nexus 4 owners to see how the 2 networks compare speed wise. Totally agree with you on the update front, S2 owners got shafted by Samsung and in the same way S3 owners will too. Has the S3 had the 4.2 update yet?
  19. I can understand that maybe 200 - 300 years ago that running the country was probably decided on political and moral viewpoints, however in the 22nd century surely there must be a better way to do it. As an over simplistic view since the 60's Labour in power, spend more than should eventually get thrown out, Tories come in make life tough to balance books, country gets feed up by the time books are balanced and Labour comes in - repeat and rinse. How is that going to change.
  20. If your carrier supports the Nexus 4 will operate at a much faster data speed (almost but not quite LTE speeds) than most other Android handsets.
  21. I read a very interesting rumour about him on the internet the other day - which concerned his lack of film appearances since 2010
