Yeah. Better off with solid, reliable news outlets like Fox News. No reality distortion there :rolleyes:

I think it's possible to get some paid apps directly from the developers' websites - pay your money and download the .apk and install that way instead of via the market I believe? Certainly no replacement for the convenience of the market, but I guess some paid apps are better than none.

Just as an aside, the Daily Mail is renowned here for hysterically screeching about total non-issues. It almost borders on self-parody; most of the time it's filled with silly articles about how non-white people are causing the downfall of civilisation and that single mums are the scourge of...

I think if your only problem with a service is not being billed for it you're on to a winner!

Question: I'm going to need to sort out a local number on arrival and already have an Android phone that's coming with, but I understand getting a plan as a foreigner without a DNI etc might be tricky. With that in mind, do any of the networks offer an informal data plan with the standalone...

I've visited the area recently, it really is beautiful. Beyond all description. Good luck with your sale!

For the sake of humanity, fairness and equality for all, I'd hope it'll support the ruling that it's absurd to discriminate against gay and lesbian couples who want to marry. In the "land of the free", why have some people more free than others? Live and let live, I say. Gay marriage won't...

Love the username too! Welcome :)

Cheers for the info! I was aware of OEM keys being tied to the hardware they're shipped on somehow but didn't know the specifics.

I didn't even need a biometric one to enter the US; my ordinary passport was enough to enter under the waiver. Is that a new requirement maybe?

I dunno, the OP did specifically mention wanting a legal copy :) azmike9: If you have the license key for the copy you're already running a simple reinstall should take care of the language problem. All that leaves you with is acquiring the installation DVD itself. It's easily downloadable...

Thank you for the tip, the website's very impressive too! Will certainly give this a read.

Hell, I got this last time I arrived back in London and I'm British! I'd only been in BsAs a month. Welcome home, eh? :rolleyes: Maybe I just looked a bit terrorist-y that day.

Good to know, sorting an ISP will be one of my first calls on arrival. Cheers!

Very interesting. It puts me in mind of a theory I heard not so long ago ("monkeysphere" or something? Can't be sure) which suggests that most people only have "room" in their lives for around 100 people at a time, and it defined "room" as the mental and emotional capacity we have to share our...

That's the internet for you! It's so easy for the positivity to get lost in all the negatives. After all, it's not like everyone jumps online to start a thread every time something awful didn't happen that day! Love this thread, it's inspiring :)

Amazing, isn't it? Just when you think the topic can't sink any lower an actual eugenecist enters the fray. Mind blown, faith in humanity shaken a little. Might go back and read the very first post again to repair some of the damage.

But then you'll be one of those "boring expats" that upset you! ;)
