Mate at work has a iphone5 but is regretting it now over it, in his own words "its the same as 4S" when I asked what was new.

Looking like the days of buying a cheap Acer are gone now:



i noticed on displaying some sites on the nexus that flash wasnt there but it seems alot of sites have done away with it :-|

Maybe it's just he general clunkiness of Safari then. Seems any time there's some pop open window or something it throws a fit.

Does anyone use a Thunderbolt external HDD? Weighing up my iMac storage options. They're bloody expensive.

Wouldn't get one personally due to the price. They work though, and you can daisy chain a few together which is nice. :)

Yeah, they're more than double the alternative. No Firewire on the new iMacs so I'll have to use USB :roll:

USB3 will possibly be faster than the drive anyway, unless you're going for some hardcore external RAID.

You don't need it for YouTube? :think: I'd love to get rid of Flash, but I need to be able to get YouTube.

Yeah. Not all of youtube has HTML5 equivalent video yet which is a shame. A few music services still run better on flash but apart from them, I could live without it too.
