I've not checked these forums in ages, so slightly late here, but it sounds like you've had a good experience of the build. Being the pedantic arse that I am the first thing I saw was that the photo makes the steps at the lower right look wonky. That said, it looks really well built, ready to take a...

Remember that guy who apparently hadn't eaten for seventy years? He's back in the news after those observations were completed. Damn.

Phil, nice! Looks like the competition for them is working its free-market thing. James from NZ was also adamant the phone he had was better than an iPhone. Can't remember what it was though, so that's about as irrelevant an anecdote as I could possibly find. Part of me still feels I should get an i...

Spitting is also considered assault, I believe, but the response was disproportionate. Hell, both groups were as bad as each other there.

Not sure if this belongs more in the general election thread, but somewhat inevitable breaking news on Gordo

If you don't consider getting a non-Apple phone sacrilege, then I hear the HTC Desire's a really nice model. Stan seems quite happy with his.

Caught the highlights from Spain on Sunday evening... argh, Hamilton! Webber was on fire (not literally).

Well, C4's alternative election night coverage was pretty damn good, even enough to lure me away from the charms of Dimbleby and Paxman. The exit polls seemed startlingly accurate this time as well (307/255/59 predicted, compared to the current 306/258/57 with one still to be decided). Let the negot...

I think you can get your ashes made into fireworks and all sorts of inventive stuff now. Possibly artificial diamond as well.

Slightly late, but the BNP show us what campaigning is really all about. Prescott wishes he was this classy.

Return of the weeping angels = win. Was really impressed with those last two episodes. Missed the Winston Churchill one though. I'm also warming to the new Doctor, and still not sure what all the fuss was over his new assistant sexing up the role too much. It's really not happened. Oh, except for th...

Long-lost grandmother who should know better.

To add to Spain's woes that other article also mentions their debt's been downgraded. Makes it way more difficult for them.

Most government departments were under pressure anyway, so not entirely sure where these savings are going to come from. Heavens forbid they actually cut the use of consultants or get rid of a few quangos. I cannot believe that making immediate deep cuts is going to do anyone any favours in the long...

I earm £25k a year but my budget says I want to spend about £32.5k a year. I will continue to spend at £32.5k per year until I have run out of funds or the banks stop lending me money. In some economic theory (Keynesian?) we should be borrowing during a recession to maintain or increase spending le...

Hmm, I had heard rumblings that Apple might be considering it as stolen property and not just innocently lost. Oops for Gizmodo, I hope it was worth the scoop!

Don't worry, Mike, interest rates won't move as they reckon it's a short-term movement due to oil prices.

Slappers cause earthquakes? Although I think the Iranian definition of immodest is somewhat different to mine...

GIZMODO are pretty lucky that prosecuting companies that review your products for handling stolen goods, or maybe theft by finding, is generally considered bad PR. I can imagine the thought process: "We have what may be a stolen phone, so let's use it to profit a little and get a major exclusiv...
