Re: Battery Ban - Very Important

gemniii42: your BP4-L is a 5.5 watt-hour battery. Assuming you can run your N810 for 6 hours of heavy use on it, the answer is roughly 325 hours of solid use -- or around two weeks of continuous...

I ended up with one of these (http://www.amazon.com/Charger-I-go-Power-Extender-Aa/dp/B000HZD316) -- an iGo power extender. It's not the cheapest item that'll do the job, but it runs off AA cells...

Re: The Battle for Wesnoth

Is it possible to remap the right-click emulation?

Reason: I'm left-handed. Means I hold the stylus in my left hand. The maximize button (indeed, all the buttons!) is on the left. This makes it...

Re: Uk high Speed modem tethering question

Speaking of T-Mobile and Web'n'walk, I got Web'n'walk and a Vario II last year. The Vario II being less than useful, I eventually sprang for an unlocked Sony-Ericsson M600i and stuck the sim in it....

Re: that sunglasses case has just smashed my 800!

Note that expansys also list the (rather cheaper) leather wallet case for the Revo (http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?i=105191). It's so cheap (I'm in the UK) that I'm buying one just to test it -- will...
