I recently grabbed myself something along those lines off ebay for a few pennies, a shuttle x100 (just need to install a 3tb into it and all of my films can be accessed through a little 50w box instead of a hulking great monster. Bit long in the tooth but does it's job. If i were to buy another i'd look at something like the zotac mini pc's and buy an external 3tb hard drive but this was cheap so i'm happy with it.
I'm looking for something that will blend in a bit better and not have a massive footprint. I love shuttles for their portability, but i like htpc cases as they can be stacked ontop of hifi equiptment etc and blend in. All depends onw hat you have need for.
Game is downloaded ICE, not played yet, about to get some cheeseburgers cooking and a film to watch.

pukka go to the play store and press the settings button on your s3. There is an option for auto updates. Untick to deactivate it. Thats how i done it on mine.

Cheers for that tip top im gonna start looking into these, its more important than my gaming rig atm lol. This is something ive wanted to do for a long time, ive built an inclosed cabinet to house the dvd player/sky box under the stairs and used wall plates behind the plasma and burried all cables in the wall. Looks cool with no wires anywhere and i just need something like that for my movies. Atlast my Errol flynn collection can be easly accessed.
yeh and wen u install stuff uncheck the suto update box
u got jellybean on that s3?

I have two phones, one cost a fiver and the other a tenner both new lol. Ive had the latest and best phones over the years and cant get on with them. I hate touch screens to unresponsive i find so now i just use the cheapos only prob is you dont wanna answer calls in public with them lmao.

The touch screen on iphone 5 and s3 are good i'd say. They respond to the electric current in your fingers, So very responsive these days

I wouldn't say no to a new phone, but i realised that my 5yr old htc desire does everything i need a phone to do. Only reason i'd want a new one would be for a better camera. gonna spend my money on a tablet instead. Rather liking microsofts new offering although might wait out on the i5 powered tablet coming in about 3 months time.

Have to agree with u there! There's no way!!! i'd have an iphone or ipad, apple are robbing greedy cunts!! Who make a handset that u cant have your own custom ringtone/sms tone. They make u pay for the privilege or ruin your warranty by getting it jail broken. Cunts!!!!
