    Anyone selling a keyboard with US layout?

    And the tilt key, but that's about it. A few more differences the other way around - but that's due to a few typography issues between transatlantic printers back in the days of yellow journalism taking it's initial footing.

    Casting Actor (22-27) For Short Film (Buenos Aires)

    Providing a production house web address would make this seem less like wannabe porn. Unless, of course, it is in which case I'm a couple of years too old (And happily married).

    Iphone 5 To Be Announced Sept 12!

    I like your opinion there ElQueso about how long it takes and the education required to allow people of a country to run it for themselves. I've often considered the similarities between colonisation and community development. While colonisation is considered 'bad' due to its exploitative...

    Iphone 5 To Be Announced Sept 12!

    There's plenty more 'dodgy' practises going on within Cupertino which will come out in the wash however my dislike of them stems from way-back when they released their computers with a one-button mouse and insisted that it was for 'creative types'. That and them suing everyone they can whilst...

    Nice one Scott, glad to see I'm not the only person here who favours anything else over Apple.

    New from Germany

    Hi Alex, I'm sure you will enjoy it here. It takes a little getting used to but is a very worthwhile place (If a bit odd).

    6 months since "trade mission" to Angola...what benefit?

    Got to say, my main beef with Argentina is the price of socks! I'm pretty cool with everything else but socks...c'mon man!

    What is the food you miss most from "home?"

    I've bought cheddar at Jumbo and other places but it falls far from the mark of British cheddar and so I've resigned myself to the many other types of cheese which is easy to get here. As for sour cream, I guess I've never eaten what you guys have. I'd use crème fraîche in the UK often and it's...

    What is the food you miss most from "home?"

    There's tons of sour cream here Citygirl. If you check the dairy fridge at whichever market you go to you'll see a product called 'Casancrem - Classico' (Currently with 60% more!). Grab some spring onion and you've got yourself a perfect dip! Decent chilli powder and cheddar are on my wishlist...

    So my Wii remote struck my flatscreen...

    None taken due to the truth of the matter ;) Hey Barbara, thanks for the offer. I could be up for it, do you have the model number and can you deliver? Watching things from my USB drive is a major factor for our household these days.

    So my Wii remote struck my flatscreen...

    Thanks all! I was just asking because you never know what wonderful laws and policies exist in a place like Argentina. Repairing it costs about the same as replacing it - so an expensive accident at my end!!!

    So my Wii remote struck my flatscreen...

    Hey all, I bought a TV from Compumundo about 6 months ago and have been having a lovely time with it up until last evening. During some downtime with my wife the screen got accidentally hit with a Wii remote and now only displays coloured lines. Is there some sort of magical Argentinian law...

    What crimes have you been a victim of in BA?

    Here's my attempt at Spanish net subculture; Trol obvio es obvio! How'd I do?

    What crimes have you been a victim of in BA?

    I get what you are saying lamarque and appreciate it in a quality control manner but 'expats' does not a consistent community make. For example: This could easily be perceived as a good salesperson procuring cash through legitimate means as well as a couple of thugs threatening someone in a...

    Window HTC crash - English Speaking Hairdresser in Buenos Aires

    I don't know specifically what the problems with your phone might be Richard and give this advice lightly (As it can get heavy going); XDA-Developers will have alternate operating systems for your device which may help. Also, if you insist on using Windows Mobile you should sync it with your PC...

    Pre Packaged Bacon Arrives to Argentina

    Roll and fritter with curry sauce. Deep fried pizza with curry sauce. The annoying thing was when I was last back, the place I favoured the most Tartan Chips (Right at Cessnock underground) didn't make fritters any more. He (a nice Polish guy) explained to me that the batter spoils the fat...
