    I've got the new Moto X, you've got questions. Fire away!!!

    It looks as if we may see the X in Europe before spring this time. Possibly with MotMaker. Could be interesting. Awesome AC.

    MicroSD card keeps corrupting?

    I did have a corruption on my 16Gb card. The phone would not read it. I powered down, removed the card, put it in a reader and looked at it under Windows 7. I could read the card, so I did a full backup just in case. Then I ran "Tools" - "Error-Checking" with "Automatically fix file system...

    Episode 59 show notes - May 26, 2011

    Problems choosing Hi Team I'm based in the UK - and trying to decide between a SIM free Samsung Galaxy 2 or a HTC (Incredible S or Sensation). I really like Android, but the speed of change is making my head spin. Since I am paying full whack for the phone, I am becoming concerned that any...

    New Archos on the way ... yippie

    I think you will like it. So far I find it fun to use & 250Gb gives you lots of options. Android feels like a substantial OS, not very limited as expected. I got a car charger + an external pack to keep it going and a case to protect and support it. So far, so good. The 7 inch screen is nice...

    Archos tablets.. REALLY ARCHOS? wtf..

    Smart-Phones proved their worth some time ago; will Tabs do the same? I chose an A70-250 (running 2.2.1) mostly for the 250Gb HD and screen size. My first Android device is a modest experiment to see if TABS provide anything I want or even like. The iPad looks interesting, but I hate I-tunes...

    Archos 43 or Archos 70?

    I chose the A70-250Gb, which works OK after a few problems (but I am new to Android, so they may be my fault). I find it good for the web, E-books, Email, Video and MP3. The image handling is less than perfect. I loaded various files from a few K to HQ-14meg. There can be problems with rendering...

    Experiences with Archos 70 IT

    I have the A70-250Gb. Just one problem issue. Don't load to many media files in one session; it upsets the media data base. After a few test files, I loaded 6Gb (over 1000 files) in one go, it fell over big time! Since then I have updated the firmware and been more gentle. Today I reset...

    Archos 70 IT 250GB: Case & Screen Protector ... ???

    Repeated for information: I have the A70-250gb and bought the Tuff-Luv leather case. Model At the moment only the veggie version is available in the UK. This fits both the 8Gb and 250Gb version, but I had to modify one hole for the 3.5mm headphone socket (the case is cut for the 8Gb version)...
