I'm new to this place, but how many 2.1 threads do we need here? Haha...
Starting 'anticipation' threads today is pointless! Helpful people on forums naturally give out all the news as and when it comes, so...

If you think, "Sod it... I'll get it when they're ready to give me it", then join me here! Pour a drink, roll a number.... and chill... maybe even talk about something else in the meantime?

(Haha - sorry guys... I'm having a bit of a giggle at your expense, but it's getting a bit 2.1 crazy in here!)
 
Agreed. Glass of Talisker for me please. No ice. It'll come. We've been making due till now, and if anyone else is like me, while getting this phone my contract renewed. So not like I can go out and change my mind unless I want to pay full price for a new phone.

Anyone enjoying the F1 2010 game by Codemasters? I'm a F1 fan...not a hardcore fan but I do enjoy the sport, watch every weekend possible. Loving the fact that there is finally a decent F1 simulator game out there! I love car games...well the simulator ones plus the NFS series. Using my Xbox 360 wireless wheel...but have to say I do miss my Logitech wheel...(bought it, then returned it because I had to discipline myself from these frill purchases!).

I think the name of your thread is absolutely perfect, it all got a bit out of hand earlier! Tried to 'clean up' the situation but probably just made half the population of the forum mad and the other half laugh like you.

So can I have a V&T please... I officially don't give a toss when I get the update, it aint going to change my world. In fairness its just going to make more work by the amount of posts to be viewed both here and over on SE's own forum. Actually make that a double!

Oh yes, plenty of ice and a slice of lime if you have it but lemon would do just as well!

In fact you will probably find me in the corner drinking cheap vodka out of a bottle wrapped in a brown paper bag by the middle of next week so why I'm being so picky over my tipple I don't know.

Thank you for lightening my evening and my mood!

Would that be with diet Mountain Dew or full-fat, sir? Here's your root beer while your waiting...

(mmm... root beer...mmm)

Yuk no - Jack Daniels over ice and as for route 66 (Route 66 Cocktail Recipe)

Slainte!

And MrW, does Mme Cholet know you are looking into another womans eyes!?! And oit less of the old:p I'm surprised your drink isn't a pint of dog.

She loves it - esp as she gets to wallop me afterwards

since this is the chilled thread on 2.1, I would like to pose a few hypothetical questions

1. Who is going to jump in with both feet and install 2.1 at the earliest oportunity?
2. What if SE have locked up 2.1 so tight that root access is not possible?
3 What if you can't get back to 1.6 and in due course the bootloader for 1.6 is cracked, possibly enabling a route to 2.2?

As I said, this is purely hypothetical, and I dont want anyone reading too much into it. I would just be interested in other peoples thoughts.

You sound like a man's man. I'm liking this order.


*takes another toke* Er... what was the order? Oh yeah... coming up!

I now have this mental image of you behind the bar, cleaning the glasses and wiping down the bar top, *** hanging out the corner of your mouth.... altho I am hoping that there are no illegal substances being consumed:eek::D

And Huntleth come and join us, what's your poison?

Edit Just noticed that I can't say f@g, forgot this is an American site. Ok ciggy then!

Guys not to wet the fire or anything but can we keep this thread X10 specific and not include banter as I have had this email from a mod on here after we got told off for general natter on a thread in the X10 section...

So did I. We've got a community here, a big one. That's why the owner and admins went to the trouble of creating forums for discussions that aren't specific to particular devices. The device-specific forums are not intended as general "hang-out and shoot the breeze" areas.

Btw, mods are constantly monitoring ALL the forums. That's what the admins require us to do, in order to keep some semblance of order amongst the hundreds of daily posts.


Just dont want anyone to get an infraction point for talking about other things than the X10 :D

1) as soon as it says "hic-cup" update available, i'm doing it
2) though i will miss my fonts, as long as the keyboard installs, i don't care
3) i'll have updated my phone before it gets that far probably

BRB - that Jack Daniels went down wrong - phew
