Re: Samsung Galaxy Note

This is a bit off-topic here, but for note taking, it would be cheaper and far more practical to use something like a smart-pen - see http://digitalsmartpen.com/

Re: Bodhi Linux running on N900

Ha, I still have some 1Mb SIMMs at home (never throw anything out lol), I remember when a 4Mb SIMM was about £30. I may still have some 256Kb memory modules somewhere... :D

Re: Nokia is really beyond any hope.

One reason, and one reason only to use this dubstep tune, especially if it is for a startup tune. You will not notice how laggy and jumpy the startup video is if it matches the laggy and jumpy...

Re: Flash: worth revisiting with Sept 2011 security updates?

That sounds promising doesn't it...?
