    October 23rd Media Event

    I really like the idea of a smaller tablet but based on the rumoured us pricing for the smaller ipad I feel its a bit too expensive, $325 means its probably going to be over £250 in the uk (im guessing this based on the comparison between the $299 ipod touch in the us = £250 in the uk) Even as...

    hope I did this right, the flash plugin is so broken on chrome for me that embedded videos cause it to crash if not : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIv-qsH40m0

    Turntable Issues

    Got the new turntable today.. and, it works!! Thank goodness :) Can't wait to use it with my far superior hifi system back home, just need to curb the urge to completely repurchase all of my favourite music on vinyl now. Any tips on keeping the stylus clean? Thanks again :D

    Turntable Issues

    Hi Wunko, thank you so much for your reply, Ive had a good look and the cartridge is definitely connected correctly and as far as I can see there are no loose cables causing the issue indicating that the error is either within the cartridge itself or somewhere along the tone arm/ at the phono...

    Turntable Issues

    Hi, thanks so much for replying. I hadnt thought of connecting the turntable directly to the amp. Just tried this and yes, the problem still resides. Indicating that it is a problem with the turntable. I have tried 3 sets of phono cables and the issue is the same for all. I also tried connecting...

    Tune ID not much to go on..

    aha, why is it sometimes that the simplest things dont occur to me? Definitely some kinda remix of Mz Brat - Selecta, all the ones Ive listened to dont appeal at all though! I guess theres a puhrreetty good chance it was the tune it was mixed with that I was enjoying! Get in, found it! 'Royal...

    Tune ID not much to go on..

    Hey, So I was out last night and remember hearing a tune and really enjoying it! Doubtless it was just my state of mind and it's actually terrible but I gotta know what it is!!! So it was either Dnb or dubstep (I only know this because that was the night that was on my memory is very...

    Decent foreign films?

    For some reason I always get taken in by foreign language films far more than those spoken in English! Definitely going to check out some of those suggested in here that I havent seen. Other than those already recommended Id take a look at 'All About Lily Chou-Chou', a Japanese film that is...

    Sensible upgrade? (10D > 550D)

    Yeah think Im going to go for the 550D, then look at something like the 85mm if I have some money Id like to put into photography at a later date! I feel more like the frustration of the 10Ds slowness is really what I want to improve rather than focal length. Stuart, reading about I cant really...

    Sensible upgrade? (10D > 550D)

    Hi, thanks for the replies! I mostly shoot people, my friends, people in the street etc. The fast aperture of primes really appeals to me in being able to isolate subjects/ use in lower light. I have a sigma 18-50mm (f/3.5 - 5.6) lens but I never use it. The 50mm rarely gets taken off the...

    Sensible upgrade? (10D > 550D)

    I recently turned 21 and really want to buy something useful with the money I was given (being 21 Im obviously otherwise going to blow it on drugs and alcohol... ;) ) I currently use a Canon 10D and a 50mm f/1.8 and mostly take photos of people. I also use the camera to take photos of models...

    Is there such a thing as a "bad taste" in music?

    While I think music is ultimately completely subjective and therefore you cant have a 'good' or 'bad' taste, I do look down on people who I feel only like the music they like due to social stigma, rather than their own true opinions of music. Or if people limit themselves to certain genres...

    ********** The all new "Official" iPhone 4S thread - Keep all the iPhone 4S stuff in here **********

    Yeah I did that and it had no effect.. Another iMessage problem : one of my mates said my messages started appearing in a separate thread under my email address, is that his phone being confused or mine? Tempted to just disable iMessage, with uk contracts theres not much point anyway..

    Shameless self promotion of my blog about time in Hospital (RIP FooAtari)

    just had a read of this.. unbelievable bravery, rest in peace. I lost a friend to lymphoma over the summer and reading this really made me think about how amazing she, like FooAtari, was throughout her illness, reading the final post had me in floods of tears! I echo the sentiments above...

    London 2012 Posters unveiled...

    I.. actually quite like some of these? (hidesface) The fact we are proud and confident enough to represent the nations prestige in contemporary art is commendable.. rather than just handing it off to a design agency for some banal corporate imagery? Like someone said before, the olympics dont...
