    It's the other way around; 3rd gen UK ipads are compatible with AT&T's 4G network.

    *** The Official Elite: Dangerous Thread ***

    No, why and what does that matter? Not everyone that would like to see a game released that they'd happily buy HAS to pledge up front to be relevant in commenting on the fund raise effort. FYI, I likely will pledge before it's up, but how much I pledge will depend very much on what happens...

    *** The Official Elite: Dangerous Thread ***

    Just calling it as I see it - not one for superstitions or prayers of hope, if this is going to succeed, then it needs something more real to get it there.

    *** The Official Elite: Dangerous Thread ***

    That's good, and I hope it is successful, but I'm not feeling it at the moment from the progress. Funding seems to be dragging its arse and not getting near the daily levels required to be feasible (even if there is a funding drive near the end). Basically over half of the total so far is...

    Squadron 42 - Star Citizen : Wing Commander Style Space Sim

    Glad to see they hit the combined funding goal (this morning) to include support for all the crazy **** (hardware wise). Previous Wing Commander games were great with joysticks, but will now lap up the extra trackir / rift / stereo3d support too. Having good hotas support (i.e. the ability...

    2012 iMac release date

    Disappointing for me, was hoping this would provide my computering fix whilst waiting for my other systems to make their way over on the boat, looks like now they might arrive before this comes out - bah !

    PHP Security Question

    wget is just a type of browser (in tool form), so it wouldn't get anything from your servers that any other web browser couldn't also get.

    Basic iPad questions

    The standard way of getting things to the ipad is via iTunes, I don't ever do a 'sync' as such, I just fire up iTunes on the computer, plug in (and if needed authorize) the device (ipod or ipad), then drag/drop items from that computer's own iTunes library onto the device to copy them up to it...

    iPad Mini...

    Speaking from an ipad 3rd gen standpoint: Videos I recorded on my camera show up on the ipad fine when I plug the SD card into it. In terms of supported video formats, it's like having QuickTime installed for the 'out of the box' experience, and there's a number of movie playback apps that...

    6.0.1 Released.

    Haven't had safari crashing, though I'm not a big time surfer. Did have the ipad completely die on me last night though and it took a couple of minutes to try and boot it back up again (holding down buttons just weren't doing it) - I thought the battery was dead, but then after putting the...

    ipad with Cellular or just use mobile as hotspot?

    I also like having the separation between the devices; means I can use the GPS and data for routing on my ipad and still have juice in the phone at the end when I need to use it to actually make/receive calls and stuff without the battery in it being on its last legs. Whether that convenience...

    Gamers... Are you ready?

    I've had one for nearly 2 years and my answer would be: nfc I'd pop a question to Thrustmaster support and ask if I were you, it's hard to say otherwise.

    Raspberry Pi - $35 Linux computer

    These were the steps (and driver download) I followed, apparently some newer builds of the distros have the driver already installed, which would have been my plan B if this didn't work: http://elinux.org/RPi_edimax_EW-7811Un

    Raspberry Pi - $35 Linux computer

    Got about 19-20 hours out of it, pretty good if I have any out-and-about uses for it and not sure that was a 100% full charge either :) @kmax86 Yes, exactly that one. Using still the original (as of about April anyway) rasbperry pi distro and just followed some instructions for installing...

    Raspberry Pi - $35 Linux computer

    Decided to get myself the (edimax) wifi adapter that others had mentioned and used to good effect, then thought why stop there in untethering the pi from wall/ground attachments: How long do you reckon I could squeeze 12000mAh? Almost a full day?

    XCOM : Enemy Unknown - by Firaxis Games - Thread

    Activating any of these 'hero' characters will put an end to receiving any more Achievements in that game play through - in case that's undesirable.

    How did this pan out in the end, did you get anything in the end, and did it do the job?
