    Apple Refurbished?

    iPod 10gig - arrived like new except for a brown box. Also, siad eight days for delivery but arrived the next day. In my opinion it's the only way to buy.

    BootCamp run Windows on Mac

    It's a master stroke by Apple. iLife is GIVEN away with the OS X. iLife is pound-for-pound the best value piece of software available for the home user. The ability to create music and combine it with your existing music collection, photos and video, then easily share it DVD or on-line, can...

    Phonebook and Stocks widgets useless (UK)

    Yeah, I read that post and I now have the weather for Manchester (UK) on my screen – Great, although I could just look out of my window. Real shame if nothing can be done.

    Phonebook and Stocks widgets useless (UK)

    Sorry if this has been discussed already, I tried to search but found nothing of use. Phonebook and Stocks widgets are no use in the UK unless there's something I'm missing. Can't get prices for UK stocks and my postcode is in the phonebook but I get no results. Anyone got any ideads?

    MW - iPod Shuffle website online

    Ipod Shuffle? Apple's blurb tells me people want to listen to their music in random order... Rubbish, it's just spin to detract from the fact that it doesn't have a screen - why no screen? To keep cost down. That's why it's so cheap, 512 would be fine for me but I won't buy one at £69...

    iPod Color - Yay or Nay

    Also, copy camera images to ipod through media reader? Even in the backest of backwater towns and holiday resorts, these days have a photography shop/centre and will no doubt gladly copy your data cards to cd so you can format and snap away some more - for a fraction of the cost of an iPod.

    iPod Color - Yay or Nay

    ••••••••••• No My mobile can only take and store a few low res ones, but my eos300d can take quite a few good ones and I can't plug that into an iPod! So who are you going to bore to death with 40gigs of photos? - Please, not me. Face it, it's a white elephant. If any of my friends...

    iPod Color - Yay or Nay

    The iPod is about music so ho needs a colour screen? Colour screen? Photos? My mobile phone can do that! Give my a digital camcorder, with still photo function built in to the iPod photo and then just maybe. Otherwise it's pointless. Bet they don't sell a single one.
