Hi Robert
I am on Late Night Poker tomorrow night Early hours of Friday morning. I am gutted actually, our Sky+ hard drive has developed a problem (system fault) and will not record so now I can not record it. Any of you good people have a DVD recorder and care to tape it for me please?
Going to the P910i, I have to say I did look at one of them and liked them very much. Depending on your usage both are great. I went for the K750i purely because it is so much smaller. The internet is pretty cool on it as well which was one the main reasons I was going to get the P910i. The video capabilities and the camera are great for the K750i as well. I actually have a 4mg pixel  Pentax Optio S camera which is great but the camera is so much more useful now. It also has a digital radio and, whilst i have not done it yet, i understand can also be used for the remote control for the TV !! They are about to rlease a new K750i but calling it something else. Basically it will be a walkman phone. Idntical in all internal aspects but vrey sexy on the outside and a bigger memory cadr. May even be out in the UK now.
Anyone know how to get a movie so it plays on my phone. Or even better, where to buy / download them from. I have found some but they dont play on my phone.
As BlueWolf says, the memory sticks are actually cheaper than I stated. The one I mist use for my phone is the Memory Stick Duo plus or something, which is smaller. It does have an adapter though that means you can use it for the PSP.

will have it on VHS...i know ancient format Cheesy if you want a copy I can make you one Simon

Does anyone have the Sound Dock for the Ipod? the one I have is made by Bose


I think it's terrific, just plug my Ipod in and away we go, great sound quality, portable. Put off buying a new sound system because of this

For people looking to avoid going the oft-travelled iPod route. The Creative Zen sleek is a strong rival to it. Review

I nearly got a free iPod at Cincinattis a couple of weeks back when a guy left his beside me on the final table inthe £10 rebuy. I'm too honest though & handed it in.

Reason for Edit: Link was SNAFU'd

For some reason that link takes me to the "Princeton Review" !

 Huh?

Just googled that creative zen sleek and it seems to be pretty impressive.

Decisions decisions, and thanks for the help.

I've got a Creative Zen Micro

It has a lot more features than the ipod mini

i.e fm radio, removable battery, 5gb memory, voice recorder etc

and its cheaper aswell.

I've just sent mine back as it has developed a fault on the headphone jack Angry

very good customer support Smiley

The creative zen is generally regarded however a superior bit of technology.

However, ipod is the coolest bit of kit you can buy. I'm a slave to fashion so its the one for me.

However, if you are not worried about image, then maybe the zen is a better choice.

i cannot see how these ipods can hold all my music, i only have about 150 albums but my spare pc's 100 gig hard drive is nearly full after i backed up all my albums onto it

Nearly full with mp3s? Or nearly full with your secret pr0n stash?

How did you encode them? VBR is the best both for storage space vs quality. If you have sampled at 256 or higher then the size of the mp3 is a lot higher, for very little gain in quality.

Or did you back up into another format? Or even raw WAV !

Im waiting for an OGG player tbh

PSP is ok but is more an games console. YOu can buy the memory stick but even a 1gb (which I have for my K750i phone) can cost over £100.
Ipods can play MP3's and also something called AAC which is even better quality and a much smaller file size. When you import your CD's to your computer (via itunes) you can select to automatcially import as an AAC file.

Simon thanks for all that I was worried about all the MP3s that fell on to my HDD from the ether. I was looking for a basic MP3 player but I think ipod is the way to go. Interesting point about the K750i, I'm due to get (when O2 sort out the stupid PAC code) a P910i.

Slight diversion here..... what night is your LNP Ace being shown? It's just started here, don't tell me it was last night!

P910i is the dogs bollocks.... id rather use it as an MP3 player than join the dark side get an evil iPod. Plus, get a 1gb memory stick and thats all the songs ill ever need to listen to in the short amount of time i woudl actually use a mobile mp3 player
