Hi All, I have been following the discussion on EyeTV but have a separate question. Are there any coverage maps available for WA showing coverage for DBTV and 3G. I would like to check that the area I am considering to buy a home has adequate coverage, or at least know about it before moving i

My question would be - did Wheildon's research only compare the "leaning forward" mode of reading a computer screen against the "leaning back" mode of reading a printed book? If so, I would put forward the premise that the iPad, which also works in a "lean back comfortably and read" scenario w

I read the article with interest and offer some further thought about this. It is after all up to the Apple Corporation what they choose to develop and market but I see a trend in a direction I not not like. The author Colin Wheildon in his book "Type and Layout, are your communicating

Hi Noel, I'm in Subiaco and have the EyeTV Diversity and channel 9 get %100 for strength and quality and SBS gets %96 Strength and %100 quality. Just a thought, I don't know your TV situation but my fairly new LCD can report strength and quality. If your TV has that ability you could com

I've noticed that my "Signal Quality" tends to vary based on my reception as I move my rabbit ears about so it's not just about signal strength. Maybe it's your connection to the antenna. You could always try some rabbit ears just to see what happens even if it's unlikely to be the cause. Ma
