  1. Dodgy, i has a very similar email when looking at Z4 on autotrader.
  2. :D I'm going to try that one next time (well not me, obviously)
  3. Copy & Paste text. When you double-tap over text, you will get a "cut, copy, and paste" bubble dialog. Double-tap again and a "paste" bubble will appear if there's anything stored in your clipboard. * Img0543 * Img0546 * Img0545 * Img0544 * Img0541 * Img0540 * Img0539 * Img0538 * Img0537 * Img0542 This works across applications. You can expand your selection points using your thumbs and, if you accidentally paste something you didn't want to paste, just shake your iPhone to undo it. • Copy & Paste photos. You can also copy and paste photos. Now you will be able to select multiple photos by tapping the action button, copy some of them, and paste them in an email, ready to send. • New Spotlight. iPhone OS 3.0 will allow you to search across the entire information contained in your device, no matter where, as soon as the information is supported it. If an application is written to support the new Spotlight, its data will also be available in the search. In this screenshot you can see Spotlight bringing results from your address book, maps, your iPod, and apps in your springboard. • Search in Mail, Calendar, and iPod. These Apple applications have specific search interfaces. The search in Mail doesn't support the message content yet, but it supports searching in IMAP servers—that will save a lot of time logging into Gmail. * Img0571 * Img0570 * Img0569 * Img0568 • 3G Tethering. This feature will allow you to connect your iPhone 3G to a laptop, to use it as a modem to access the internet. Carriers still have to sign-off on it, and probably charge more for it. None have announced it yet. • Landscape keyboard. Apple has added the landscape keyboard mode to other applications, like Mail, SMS, and Notes. * Img0557 * Img0555 * Img0554 * Img0553 * Img0552 * Img0551 • Multimedia messaging. A big one to send rich content to people without mail-enabled telephones: The new MMS function will allow you to include everything, from images to sound to vcards (no word on video, however.) Personally, I find these usesless having email, but some people seem to want it. • Support for new calendar types. In iPhone OS 3.0 you will be able to subscribe to calendars on the web using two protocols: CalDAV—supported by Google and Yahoo—and subscriptions via the .ics format—which is what Apple uses in iCal. • Improved stocks application. The stocks application now allows you to read related news, so you can enjoy yourself learning about the latest market scandals, stock crashes, and executives getting bonus packages from government aid while their companies sink into hell. Thank you, Apple. • Stereo Bluetooth A2DP audio. You will be able to pair your iPhone 3.0 with a stereo Bluetooth A2DP device, like headphones or speakers. • Note syncing with iTunes. • Automatic login in Safari. The new version of Safari will remember login credentials, so you won't need to introduce your username and password again while accessing Scoreland your work intranet. • Shake to shuffle music. If you are in your iPod application, you just need to shake it to start the shuffling mode. Hopefully this will be optional for sports people out there. • Wi-Fi auto-login. In case you have a subscription to a paid hotspot, your iPhone or iPod touch will autolog into it. • Anti-phishing. Mobile Safari now can warn you against malicious sites trying to scam you. • Extended parental controls. Adult content filters can now be applied to movies, TV shows, and applications, in addition to web sites and music (porn apps, here we come). NEW APPLE APPLICATIONS Apple will include new widgets in the new version of the iPhone operating system: • Voice memo application. Obviously, allows you to record voice or any other sound, so you don't forget any idea or want to play FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper. • Send and receive files. A dedicated application to exchange files between iPhones or iPods touch. The new iPhone OS 3.0 adds 1,000 new APIs to extend the capabilities of new applications. • Peer-to-peer Wi-Fi Bluetooth connectivity. A new API will allow for two iPhones to connect directly—peer-to-peer—via Bluetooth Wi-Fi, without needing any Wi-Fi network. They will be able to discover each other using Bluetooth, and then start a Wi-Fi connection transparently. This opens a lot of possibilities. I doubt they will allow you to pass music, but you would probably be able to pass any other information, as well as directly communicating between applications in the two devices. One example: A pets game that allows two dogs to play with each other. This feature could be combined with push notification, so your iPhone may receive a note from another iPhone, inviting you to play a game one-on-one. • Browse remote content. While the built-in iPod application doesn't allow you to browse songs in other people's iPhones or iPod touch, third-party applications will allow you to do that, according to Apple's Forstall. • Use your iPhone/touch to control peripherals. A new API will let you use your iPhone or iPod touch as a control to your accessories. In this example, the iPhone is being used to equalize the sound in a loudspeaker. However, the applications are endless. Johnson and Johnson is releasing LifeScan, an app that connects to a glucose monitoring device. The application can even alert other people automatically, in case something is wrong. There other less serious apps, like creating the most perfect s*x device ever (NSFW). • Maps inside other applications. New applications will be able to use Maps directly, which is now an API. • Turn-by-turn directions. Developers will also be able to create turn-by-turn applications using the GPS information from the iPhone and combining it with their own maps, without depending on 3G connectivity or Google. • Push notification finally coming. Hopefully this time it will be true. Push notification means that your iPhone OS 3.0 applications will finally be able to receive messages from the intarwebs automagically, so you can have an Instant Message application and have your iPhone vibrate or make a sound when a new message comes in, even if the application is not running. • Voice communication in applications. iPhone 3.0 applications will also be able to access a Voice over IP service. This means that you will be able to chat with other users while playing against them in a game, for example. This won't use the telephone, but the internet over a Wi-Fi connection. • Rumbling. Games—or any other application—will also be able to rumble, like your console joystick. • Audio recording. Audio recording will also be possible from third-party applications using a standardized API, instead of custom workarounds. • Access your music from applications. Future applications will also be able to access the iPhone/iPod music library. This means that applications will be able to play your own music while they run.

  4. My friends dad owns a company called "The garage door company" which are based all over the uk http://www.thegaragedoorcompany.ltd.uk/
  5. try camskill.co.uk used them the past few times. On my IS i had Michelin Pilot Sports, Marangoni Zeta Lines and Goodyear Eagle F1's GSD3 I found the Goodyears to best all rounders
  6. I did whilst at uni. We had a small IT section on our course, which involved us making a website. I wouldn't take any tips of me though as i was crap at it
  7. I don't know why, but that made me chuckle lol. It's such a man thing to do on a weekend!
  8. I think i paid around the £2000 mark when i got my Lex (19 at the time). By the time got rid at 23 i was paying about £800
  9. Mine is quite an alcohol infested party weekend. Thursday: Going out round town. Friday: Recover, maybe go and see the new fast and the furious film at the cinema, then off to my friends house for a 25th birthday party Saturday: Recover, maybe clean the car Sunday: Going out for a meal and then around town for another friends birthday (24th this time) Monday: Recover :P
  10. http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=85332 how about this guy
  11. Thanks guys, I think im going to give the Autoglym stuff a whirl. Whats the best method of prevention, a few layers of wax?
  12. Sorry, i'm being lazy as i have a hectic day and haven't got time to trawl all the posts. Had my car now brand new since December so the paintwork is in pretty decent condition, however.... being black its already starting to show swirl marks on the paint, all be it not too bad....so my question is whats the best way of removing the ones that are there and preventing it in the future. I'm too lazy to get involved in these mass detailing sessions , but in the past i used the Carlack stuff with a decent wax. Having a silver IS, it was pretty easy to keep it looking good, but black is a bloody nightmare! Thanks Dan
  13. I have a question a really silly and basic one! I should really know by now as i've had an imac over a year, but oh well.. When you download a application or something, do you have to drag it from the download stack to your applications file and then run it?
  14. Did anyone see the gadget show on channel 5 last night. They had a Sony Vaio, HP touch and a Mac and run comparisons with them. The Vaio and the HP both had 4GB of RAM and the Mac only had 2GB RAM. The Mac won overall and i was surprised to see that it blitzed the competition in the performance test.
  15. i'm no 'techy', but did you get it from a shop? just a thought that you could go in and have a play with the shops version and compare, yours could be faulty?? or......send it back and get a mac :P Seriously though a brand new computer shouldn't be slow IMO
  16. Can't believe they have done practically the whole of Sheffield EXCEPT the bit by my house. The last picture stops literally about 50 yards down the road!
  17. Could you not do that before? :o not when texting you couldn't, but you could if you were surfing the intornetz
  18. Can you now send more than 1 text at once I'm not sure if you can send a new text to multiple people. However, it did say that you can forward texts to multiple people, so yes, you will now be able to.
  19. watched some of the presentation. ALAS you can now text whilst the phone is horizontal so you get a bigger keypad.
  20. was going to start a thread on this yesterday, but as the last got closed i thought best not. As an iPhone user i'm glad they have at long last added features that should have been there from the the start. MMS and Copy and Paste AT LAST! Looking forward to the turn by turn sat nav.
