sorry to repoint this thread back, but bluetooth is definately the way to go.
I spend about 1/2 hr untangling the wires my mp3 player came with.
And this is with the now obligitory neckstrap and little peice of string to stop the jack being strained
well sometimes, you actually want to hear the news/weather/traffic
Especially if your travelling on a coach for 5 hrs and need to know if birmingham is at a standstill again

All religions are invented IMHO....
Man still isnt evolved enough to understand the true concept of God, if he even truely exists.
And do you really think he wants to hear your whining?
And why do people accept the spyware? Cos the pop up dialogs will keep popping up until they press yes, or CTRL-ALT-Del, find the nuscience and kill it manually. (had an exploit install itself into the system and try to change my dialup. That's the day i installed Ad-aware, and went broadband:) )
Does that include Telesales reps?
ME: "I dont buy things over the phone" ~hang up~
telephone ~ring ring~
REp: "Hello, this is michelle from xyz windows again...."
Really?
I know RADIO broadcasts are available online - but then again, we're not charged for owning a radio are we?
Basically, the BBC want to claim more money from us. They were given a licence (pun intended)to print money way back when, which they have never failed to exploit.
If the programs are available online IT IS BECAUSE THE BBC MADE THEM AVAILABLE. Why are they whinging now that people have taken advantage of this?
If only the BBC were accountable to the viewers, then i would not begrudge any fee.
instead i have to read news stories like this:-
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/newspaper/0,,174-1510 372,00.html
So thats where my licence fee went then - nothing useful, entertaining or even educational would receive that amount of money.

Hey, it keeps em from being boring in my general vicinity....
THought of the day.... How much free publicity have apple just lost by pulling the plug on these blogs?
yeah, but the guy above knows the architecture of the amiga...
or... install Spyware guard, http://www.wilderssecurity.com/spywareguard.html which blocks the spyware, and teach them to use Ad-aware http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/ on a regular basis.
And i thought i was old remembering playing lemmings on the amiga....
ouch!
hobbyists should die? THat's a bit harsh to all the x-stichers out there....
Fingerprint technology would be better. Im sure i saw a laptop advertised with this feature once somewhere
