RE: Anyone have a Nokia 3650??

No I didn`t have to get the firmware upgraded, did have a bit of trouble connecting to the phone at first, but figured out that I had to first make a serial connection with the phone before using the nokia pc suite,you have to also set the 3650 up as a paired device with my pc. You only have to do this the first time you connect. After that its been plain sailing.

There are plenty of free ringtones, images, apps and games out there a bit of searching with google and you`ll find plenty. I had about 100 images, 40 ringtones and 15 games on there and the MMC card was just over half full. Definatly the best phone i`ve ever had

RE: Anyone have a Nokia 3650??

I`ve got a 3650 and am also very impressed. I had trouble with setting the email up but as I`m with vodafone I`ve set up a email address on vodafone mail, which I can then access using the vodafone live, the call is free as calls vodafone live wap service are included in the inclusive minuites.

I`ve downloaded the extra games and video recorder with sound from the nokia website, as far as i know the only way to get them on the phone is via bluetooth or infrared. So i bought a bluetooth dongle from ebuyer for about £28, and I`ve had no problems with it.

I did a bit of searching for other games and things for the symbian operating system, and I`ve currently got pac-man, tetris,spaceinvaders, and loads of other games, plus about 100 different ringtones, such as old TV themes and pop music, my current ringtone on thephone is the theme from Minder. My advice is to get a bluetooth dongle, the one i got from ebuyer is this, it`s about the cheapest one I could find, but as I say, Ive had no problems.

RE: Your Favourite Author

Lee Child`s Jack Reacher books are very good, and I also like Jeffery Deaver the master of the upexpected twist.

RE: A question for Goodfellas fans...

I`ve got the R2 flipper and the airline ticket is blacked out on that as well.
Maybe the airline didn`t want their name/logo associated with the film.

RE: All time fave scene that you just keep playing everytime on DVD

Goodfellas, when all the bodies are being discovered with Layla playing and Henry Hill`s voiceover, especially when the doors of the meat truck open and the camera pans in and they find Carbone.

RE: www.filmsfirst.net

Gary Green,
After reading this thread, I thought I would give you site a go, I ordered Black Hawk Down (very reasonably priced at £9.99) last Fiday and received it on Monday morning. Excellent service and a speedy delivery.
Just one point about your site, when using the search box you have to actually use the mouse and click on the GO box, its much easier to just press return like most of the other sites out there.

RE: Where can I get an Amray case?

Mods.

You have moved my post to the software forum, from your email below "Your message was considered to be
inappropriate for the forum in which you posted this message."

Putting it in the software forum is even more inappropriate as I`am not discussing any software, but rather where I can acquire an amray case.

I did consider which forum to put this in:
Consoles Definately not
Traders I dont want to trade or have anything to trade
Retailers Maybe, but this is a review of retailers
Easter Eggs Definately not
Hardware Hmmm. Its not software I want so maybe...
Bargains The cheaper I find said case the better
Region Hack Definately not
In the end having read :
Welcome to our General Forum. This is for postings which do not fall neatly into the categories of our other Forum sections, I went for the General forum.

Where can I get an Amray case?

Anybody know where I can get an Amray case from, I just want the 1 so I don`t want to buy a box of 10 or anything, and it has to be a double disk one, because I accidently stepped on my R4 Fight Club and broke it, luckly the disk`s were not in it.

Problems with Epson stylus colour 600 on Windows XP

Hello,

I`ve recently got a Epson stylus c600 from a friend and just can`t get it to work with windows XP. When I installed it wasn`t autodetected. XP does have the printer listed during the install process and even tells you its been successfully installed, but when I go to print anything I just get page after page of gibberish.

I`ve tried the Epson support site, they have XP drivers for every printer but this one. As I got the printer second hand I didn`t get any install disks.

Do any of you use this printer with XP successfully?

Any Ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks
