Re: iPhone etc and your DSLR camera
Hi All, If have a Nikon DSL and like to set up a tethering session, then you can get a free app from http://www.sofortbildapp.com/ It does not have live view … but it’s not bad, after all it’s free. Happy snapping.

Best mobile internet solution for Mac in Thailand - sh ort term ?
Does anyone happen to travel to Thailand with their Mac and know about mobile internet solutions there? I have a 17 MacBook Pro (2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, maybe 3.5 years old now) running MacOSX 10.6.4. I'm going to Thailand for maybe 2 or 3 weeks, and will probably drive around a lot, staying at wherever I stumble across at night. Ideally I'd like internet access whether I'm stationery or not. I have an iPhone 3G in case that's helpful, but I imagine a dedicated USB dongle of some kind will be better in terms of speed. I prefer speed over cost, but obviously the cheaper the better, particularly in terms of buying hardware which may be useless beyond Thailand. Proven Snow Leopard-friendliness ranks high also. Suggestions appreciated.

I have noticed that some of the dvds I have burned are already failing- you can see the data layer coming away from the plastic disc.

Re: dvds
Possibly Kodak, they do gold archival disks which you can buy in Woolworth supermarkets, but they are quite expensive. I think Kodak rate their estimated life in the hundreds of years.

Re: dvds
Hi Paul, Gold Discs are not the best discs, they have lousy reflectivity, and the dye quality found on these blanks simply does not burn well.

Re: dvds
Hello Tom I have done quite a lot of research into the most reliable blank DVDs and the consensus seems to be that genuine Taiyo Yuden discs are the best - ie archival quality lasting 50 - 100 years!! It is important that they are genuine Taiyo Yuden - Made in Japan - and should be sealed in the TY packaging if possible. Also, consider the difference between OEM and Master quality. Also, if you want archival-type storage give some thought to inert archival quality envelopes/cases.

Re: dvds
i'm using tdk for many years, no drop outs yet, you anyway should bear in mind never i say never use the highest burn speed, spend/allocate time and burn on 16x for audio cd 4x on dvds, giving the laser more time to melt the layer improves the reliability greatly James On 18/09/2010, at 6:27, thefrogs wrote: I have noticed that some of the dvds I have burned are already failing- you can see the data layer coming away from the plastic disc.
