  1. Rev it works fine, its just not as easy as using a netbook. So Apple are being forced to justify the price already, how times change.
  2. Don't whatever you do waste your money on a cheap tablet. I know from experience. As others have said if you want to play a few games, and watch videos and browse the net then a tablet pc is ideal. For word processing you really need a laptop or net book.
  3. I must admit that I am quite amazed by your comment. How does it look stunning? is it just the form factor? On every level the ipad mini screams that its been built to a price point. Lower res screen, 2 year old cpu, lack of memory. Apple need to decide going forward if they are going to make this a cheap ipad or the best ipad mini the can. Apple have seen their market share in the tablet market been sliced down to just over 50% since 2011 and was forced to bring out something cheaper. In America the ipad mini is only 30 dollars more than an ipod touch. Of course this will sell and at this spec I doubt there will be many ipad users trading in their ipad 2's or 3s for one but some will.
  4. I do think designed to a price point rather than make the best Ipad mini they could.
  5. So ipad mini released. Spec is hardly cutting edge but no doubt will sell loads. Cheapest model is £269.00 compared to £159.00 for Nexus 7. It will be interesting to see what Google announces next week. I do wonder which sales will suffer more on the Ipad mini release, and android tablets or full size ipads.
  6. T3 reporting that 4.2 will be Key Lime Pie and will be announced next week along with Nexus 4 and 10 inch Nexus Tablet. Anybody not buying the new Nexus because its made by LG
  7. The Campaign was laugh out loud funny.
  8. So 4 months for the S3 to get JB, wonder how long till it gets 4.2 which could be announced in just over a weeks time. Another vote for Nexus only in future especially if the rumours of multiple handsets is true.
  9. If that ran Vanilla Android Id buy that..........

    Three have a 1 month rolling contract with unlimited data for £12.90 a month. The so yes its 90p a month more but if you sign up through top cash back you can get £25.25 back.
  11. looks good. What ever happened to Sharp Mobile Phones
  12. Updated Nexus 7. Nothing on the Google Nexus
  13. The rumour I read last night was the 32gb Nexus would retail at the same price the 16gb currently does, the 16gb moves down to the 8gb price point and possibly the 8gb moves down to a $99.00 price point. Since they arent giving away the £15.00 worth of Play credit you can sort of see this happening. Anybody with a Nexus 7 had the new update as its supposed to release the Nexus for Landscape mode too. I havent had it as yet.

    Unblock US works well. I have found a couple of free alternatives I will try out to see how they compare.
  15. Are you typing that in a cave Conor?
  16. You do know the latest rumour is that the next Nexus will be an LG.
  17. I only mention Samsung as I have owned 3 Samsung handsets including the Nexus. I doubt I would buy an HTC again after having a Desire and I havent bought a handset from LG, Sony or Motorola.
  18. Its probably the only way I would buy another Samsung Handset. The S3 hasnt got 4.1 yet (although its close) if Google release 4.2 next month then it will be the end of 2013 Q1 before the S3 gets it. Too long to wait IMHO.
  19. On the way to work this morning listening to The AAA podcast they said that some research had been done to tablet use in the USA and last year Android use was 15% of the tablet market. This year it is 48% with Apple down to just 52%, a lot of this was down to the succes of the Kindle Fire which had taken 25% market share. However this research was done before the release of the Nexus 7 which might just swing it over in favour of Android being the biggest user base in the Tablet Market. No wonder Apple is worried........
  20. Some rumours this morning of a November launch for an LG Nexus but also that the Nexus name will not be limited to one manufacturer. Certain levels of hardware will have to be met to use the Nexus brand but more worrying will be that a certain level of UI customisation will be allowed, all be it using some new system which I assume will not affect the underlying OS.

    Well if you are a Netflix subscriber already then you are being shafted over content you get. There is much better on content available on there in different quantitites. You can also watch video content on the Hulu site for free. $4.99 a month is less than £4.00

    Signed up for a 7 day trial for unblock us. Content on US Netflix is miles better than the UK version. You can change where you want to appear so can check out Netflix from other countries too. Brazil has some good film content......
  23. I have seen zero rumours. Some people are thinking that Google might move the launch of new phone to early next year to tie in with the version of Android.
