Um H and H+ is like super 3G.
Nerd/Boffin Technical corner. Page 71
I thought 3G was faster? What the hell is E? I know it's short for EDGE, but is that faster/slower than 3G?
I think it goes - 2G - 3G - 3GEDGE - H - H+ - 4G

Right, so, if I play a YouTube video on this computer and use the scrollwheel on my mouse, it causes the audio from the YT video to jump. WTF?!
I'm sick of squinting at my iPod touch all the time with it's tiny screen
Can anyone recommend a decent tablet priced at between £100 a £150
Pretty much just for Internet use
And the odd video and mp3
Nowt flashy like an iPad as I wouldnt use it that much
I'd be interested in the Kindle Fire. Not seen one up close but I remember when they first came out they got pretty good reviews, although I could be wrong??
Yeah I have looked at them
Can you do everything that you can do on a laptop?
Or is it just a glorified kindle ?
I've heard good things about the kindle fire, too. It's a proper tablet, it's not just an ereader, though it is geared towards its connection with amazon so they make a loss on each unit but expect to recoup that money by having you buy books and music etc from amazon.

I'm not sure? Don't buy a tablet expecting it to replace your laptop. Browsing the internet, playing basic games and using general "apps" would be fine but anything more advance like word processing will probably not work quite as well.
Yea just browsing the internet, email and the odd app
Them samsung galaxy tablets look good
Would never buy another apple product
All that iTunes bullshit you have to go through is a pain

That was the case when they first launched in the US, and as they are essentially the same price now I assume it's still true.
One thing I like to do before buying a new gadget is browse YouTube for reviews. Some of them geeks are pretty thorough.
They have some basic ones on amazon for under fifty notes now
Get pretty good reviews too
But the one sooty recommends seems pretty perfect
I just hope it doesn't make me double post all the frigging time like it does with him!
