well, it looks like the screen has returned to normal.
i checked a couple of times last night, but it was still wonky, so i left.

i have a netbook too, and while it's very portable, it certainly doesn't come close to where i can go with this galaxytab. and it hasn't got the battery life.
being able to go out and about, and have the net available at any moment, has made my life a lot easier. for example, the other day i was hunting for a part for my car, and i found it on the web while i was having a coffee in town, for a much cheaper price than i expected - and the store was less than 2 blocks from where i was sitting! handy :)
plus, i use it for shopping lists, sticky notes, business cards, and it has a barcode scanner function that i can use to read those new signs as well as compare prices between shops!

downloaded 3 more ebooks from kindle this morning (total cost $11) so i'll have something to read on the ferry tomorrow night.

i've just finished routing my trip to south australia with the navigator, and it will avoid toll roads, tell me where the cheapest fuel is on the trip, and notify me of accomodation and prices as i go.
the screen is 7 x 4 inches, so it's very easy to see (not like those miniscule GPS units!)

LOL you dont work for them, do you?
Yeah the draw back with lap tops is the limited battery life, I thinks its time to google Galaxy. I can imagine the results, cars, space, David Beckham and maybe a tablet lol.

PS It is sad, a suitcase full of unused sex toys. But I bet you had some fun with them when you did use em;):D:devil:

Holy shit! I REALLY have to get one of these!!! As you say, a netbook is small and portable, but still a little bulky to go in your handbag!

no, I don't work for them... But maybe I should apply?!!
Be aware that prices can vary hugely, but I went to a telstra reseller (Wills) and they were very cheap there.

I have left the toy collection out, and before I leave tomorrow, I will lay them all out under the blankets when I make the bed :devil:
Might inspire him when we get back!
 
So we've managed to run someone off the thread? *shakes head* I don't think that was the intention, but the result is undesirable. Maybe we can slow down on going all legalese on people in the future and actually talk about stuff with them?

(Just a newbie who wants this place to stay friendly and welcoming)

Ah, so don't expect to get as lucky as you did? I still don't understand how you use it as a phone but I think I have some reading to do.

How is your health today? The Kangaroo Island plan went ahead?
 
It's not you I'm cranky at babe :rose::kiss:

it's the newbies who have only been here for a little while who have not actually read back at some of the other stuff.

So like I said - I'm gone

P.S

I would have been happy to edit the post if someone (any one had asked) instead of threatening me

:kiss: I missed all the happenings but dont leave Webbo.
 
webbo!

for fucks' sake - go edit your post!
the whole damn screen is screwed :mad:

Webbo, for the record: The above was the request to edit your post. Your response was to do it again. WQ decided to leave the thread after that and it's not good when that happens.

The rule is ...

9. Flooding the forum with posts, screen-breaking text, or images - or bumping old threads - and/or any non-substantive activity with the intent of disrupting the forum is prohibited.


Is there something you don't understand about "screen-breaking text ..... disrupting the forum"?

I merely (politely) asked you to desist. Doesn't matter how many years you've been doing it or that it was funny once in a while ... If you decide to get upset about being asked to stop and want to toss your toys from the cot, that's your choice.

Apologies to others if you think the reactions were excessive ... :rose:

The iPads and Galaxy use the Internet part of the 3G network, not the phone part

actually, I can use mine as a phone.
I don't tho - way to cumbersome!
Easier to have my little phone for calls, and this for everything else.

I'm leaving on Monday's overnight ferry. Just my luck they're not sailing Sunday!

Shop around, they are still cheap at Wills. And at Tshops.

You missed the most important part of the rules.........

The administrators here don't believe they are anyone's parents nor are they anyone's Jiminy Cricket. It's not their responsibility to make sure that everyone on the site uses free speech responsibly. It's up to individual users to be responsible for themselves. For those who are not, the programmers at Jelsoft have added an ignore function for your convenience.

Use your iggy button if you don't like something. Webbo and others have been here far longer than you and are well liked. You are not.
 
I said it in the Three things you don't know about me thread, and I'm gonna say it over here too. I really hate confrontation. Not saying anyone has to cease and desist on my account, but just letting you know where I stand. I'll be sitting clearing out my pm box and playing in the word threads for a while. Have fun y'all.
