They really are amazing yup. My Phonak PFE earphones on the phone cost £80 yet the Koss Porta Pros sound better (though that's not to say the Phanak sound bad, but to reflect just how good the Koss are!).

If Koss made in ear phones as good as the Porta Pro I'd be all over them

My bro's pair were a birthday present so I cannot confiscate them lol, I was hoping they'd unlock some kind of door in his mind that music is amazing. I guess I was wrong :/

If only you had some sort of camera that wasn't attached to a phone.

yes this thought had crossed my mind also.

however i couldn't be bothered earlier to take a pic with it, take the sd card to the computer load it to a site and then post it here, usually i just uploaded straight to Facebook and post it from there using my phone bleh

now you have pointed out my laziness and shamed me i have got off my arse.

The photo with the Sansa Clip+ makes me sad.

I left my Sansa Clip+ and Brainwavz M4's on the train a while ago

Really need to get onto replacing them.

i was jokin too mate lol.

its pretty awesome tbh, i thought the kit lens (im a photo noob) was a great lens and i thought i was getting good shots with it but how wrong i was!

the 50 focuses so fast and its so nice to shoot with i can see why everyone says buy one! ive purchased a 35mm to go with it as the only gripe i have with the 50 is that on my DX camera its at too far focal length so im gonna have a 35mm just to compliment.

Nice lens, I keep meaning to pick one up myself.

It's better than the one on the light case I have for my Touch. There is better coverage on the page as it can be centered, the bottom of the page is lit better, the light does distract you when reading and of course you don’t need the case. I’m very pleased with it.

Glad you like it. One thing you might want to consider is using an Energizer Lithium battery in the light. They're about a third of the weight which might make a big difference for long reading sessions, especially if you don't rest the Kindle on something while you read.

I'll get one. Thanks for the tip.

Err, MMO's have great sound...just take WOW for instance the music/ambience is sublime.

I wouldn't call it a waste, most games have fantastic sound.

These arrived yesterday.

3x D-links quad port network cards
Quad serial to USB adapter cable
Cisco 2950 24-port. (Ordered 48-port but received a 24-port.

)

^^ are you not going to return it?

Erich Kriegler · 19 Jul 2012 at 12:05

By the way the outside of anti static bags are quite conductive.

I don't think so. I was going to buy a 24-port anyway for £35 off the bay, and then saw this
described as a 48-port version for £24.50 so I snapped it up. Still not a bad price, and it
will do the job nicely as long as it works properly.

Edit: ^^ Didn't think of that, was too excited to have some new stuff! They seem to be working
fine anyway though.

late to the game

Ahleckz · 19 Jul 2012 at 14:04

No camera, so stock images. I usually don't suit sunglasses but I think these one look pretty awesome on me.

£3, including delivery, from ASOS! Bargain.

Always like Arko, the smell is very fresh. How you find the cutthroat? I've always used the safety blade razors instead . . .
