As a owner of a original 5gig iPod I can say with some authority that it works fine with iTunes. Never had any problems.

t610 advert

I'm trying to find the artists name of the track that is on the new sony ericsson t610 ad. If you've been watching the cricket, and I can't see any humanly reason why you shouldn't, you'll know what I mean.

Can any one help?

I don't think (and I might be wrong) you get anything else with the HD but you have to buy another piece of hardware at full price. Like I said, the prices I listed were meant to be a ball park figure for people to base...

If you like Rounds then his first 2 album are pretty good as well. My personal fav is Dialogue, which was his first, it seems to have a little more blood and cuts in than his last 2. fyi Four Tet are supporting radiohead on either their Ireland or UK tour. Now that would be a show I'ld like to see :D

How can someone force you to take you laptop home, I can understand how they can remove you net access if you refuse to sign but not allowing you to have a laptop on schools grounds is crazy. If you have nothing to hide then you have nothing to fear from letting them take a look at your laptop so wh...

Why would they need to release the gas after each trigger pull? Well laser action works by a population inversion of the populated energy levels within each atom, this inversion can occur through many different mechanisms but in the case of this 'gun' the inversion occurs through the release of gas...

anyone have any clues about how the 'weapon' would be fatal over 1500m. The way I see it it would deliver 665J of energy (excluding any losses from dispersion) with each burst (enough energy to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 159 degrees C) which would give you a nasty burn over the 1.3m...
