I'm justing finishing my ubuntu server NAS using samba and got a terrible find: I need to have cifs module in order to play the video files. My SGS can have it with 2.1 ( but I'm on 2.2) and my wifes Android will also probably get it from the rom dev, but I will have to let down the tablet I was considering getting for my daughters to watch cartoons. Well in the oder hand, Uni is still alive (on bat if down but i had another around hehe).
I'm quite happy when decided to to sell it

Hi, the main things to ask yourself as well is, what budget do you have?
Are you wanting to buy just the handset or do you want a contract?
Do you want it on Pay as you Go?
Have a look on this forum for a number of handsets that take your fancy and find out what other people's opinions are.
Read reviews on the internet.
Hope that helps?
it's a phone for 1 year, not contract, i allready have one, but, my htc magic is bricked!
than it's to replace the sapphire for 1 year!
my budget is 250.- Swiss francs, it could be used!
with this details, i can buy a motorola flipout, sony ericsson x10 mini pro...
but there is others? thanks
Have a look here for any pre-owned handsets..http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=476
Just to get some ideas in case you can't find anything brand new.
Why don't you try getting a ZTE Blade. I used to own one myself and it is a very powerful, but very low priced phone. It's also winning the best non-HTC phone of 2010.

[Q] I need advice, please read, imporant! iMac related

Hi guys and gals I'm new to the forum.
I've recently decided I wanted to get into app development, I am still yet to learn Objective C and Java but I want to be making apps for both iOS as well as Android.
I am thinking of getting an iMac 27-inch: 3.4GHz is it completely worth it or are there other alternatives out there with a cheaper or similar price tag? Please I would like informative responses so do not post unless its helpful as it will save my time and yours
I'm assuming this might not be a straight forward answer but the reason I want to get an iMac is due to the wider screen size and clearer display and for using XCODE (eventually) but I want to develop for Android also.
Would you also recommend any programmes or software to use for someone starting out with programming and development? Ideally for starting out and then the more complicated programmes for experienced people.
Thank you.
Bump, could someone please answer me.
