id of thought leaving loads open would drain the battery/take up space   shall leave shiz open now haha.

The one I've got on android is brilliant. Touching the screen draws pictures and pressing buttons just makes shapes show up
You have to touch all 4 corners in a clockwise order to exit out of it
Want to have something similar if I get an iphone

Seems sky go is coming to android
One of the main reasons for getting an iphone was the supposedly amazing battery which in reality some people don't seem to be getting
Don't want another phone I have to have on charge constantly. My desire is literally charging all day if I actually want to use it

I'll admit mine isn't amazing for battery life but I have had WiFi on all morning, been on the phone for about 4 hours, sent a handful of messages on whatsapp and probably about 20 texts and mine is at 56%, when i left home this morning it was on 88% so not tooo bad really. Thing is if I hadn't used it at all it would still have gone down to about 70% i think.

You'll love it, was because of Joe I got mine, Becky got one after playing with my one, and now you and gay dave have them it'll start a trend. Joe will be sensible and upgrade to another htc and then one day, far far away in the future, even russ will get one

Mine was on 98% when I went to bed last night, 37% this morning and as I'm in Crewe no way to charge it so it's now turned off until I leave

Quite possible as not sure I want to shell out for the handset.
Got other things I need to buy like NAS box, new xbox, new TV etc
(and Laura wants a new hoover before I'm allowed to spend any money on new gadgets)

Hoover ? £26 bagless upright in tesco, 1600w, works a treat 
Why a NAS if you don't mind me asking ? I like the way you say "need" and then include an xbox which you already have

The win7 phone's are a bit too gadgety for me too, I liked them but couldn't get used to it. I think if you were given an android handset and used it for a week, you'd probably agree it is as good as an iphone.
My brother has an iphone and his wife has the desire s and they are constantly swapping as they prefer different functionality on each handset

We're getting a Hetty this weekend as they're supposedly indesctructible and 1/2 the price of the Dysons we were looking at
Decided to join the 21st century and get rid of my CD's and will probably do the same with my DVD's at some point so will get a NAS box to stream to TV/laptop/stereo in the kitchen
I need a new xbox to stream the films to as the original is too load to be able to watch one on
Plus the new ones are black so will match the TV, Sky box, DVD

Fair enough kinda all makes sense.
We went through a spate of killing the pet hoovers with Kuma's fur as it would just ruin the motors. Had some really expensive electrolux pet ones and a dyson my parents got us was fed up of spending loads out, bought cheapy one in tesco thinking even if it lasted 3 months it was cheaper to replace it each time it broke....that was over a year ago now
