Hi, Just thought I'd let everyone know that I've started an Ubuntu Hour in Stockport, Cheshire. It will take place every other Saturday starting 23rd October 2010 at 3pm-4pm at Fresco (The cafe in the middle of Merseyway Shopping Centre). I've put this on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hour as well.

Hi If you mean update the phone then you will get notifications on the phone for app and android updates and it will update them using 3G/wifi if you let it update, therefore no you won't need windows to update the phone. Ashley On 25 May 2010 15:50, John Matthews jake...@sky.com wrote: On

I'm guessing it's down to WEEE, under which many companies are scared of their kit being found irresponsibly disposed of and being traced back to them. This is why I can't get any from college. There are numerous health and safety reasons why they can't give them away as well though. I will
