I sympathise with your predicament -- did the same myself a couple of months back but Bloove hasn't let me down yet. Why do sync apps get it wrong? Is it too hard to ASK which way you want to sync? /rant

@ocifant: Well yes. I can be mobile without moving a muscle... :)
The claim "you can be mobile" qualified by "with built-in wifi" surely implies that the site is suggesting a mobile internet connection, no?
In my (admittedly twisted) mind, wifi = tethered while 3G = mobile.
-
How on earth do they get away with claiming "and with built in Wi-Fi technology you can be mobile wherever you are"?
rolls eyes

Holy smokes, that's a lot of dosh. Hope to hell the train arrived on time! :D

@edythemighty: Should be doing about 100mph between the stations... :-) I've heard that coverage is pretty good on the Paddington line but if you head towards Westbury you lose signal before Bradford on Avon.

Back up and running again?

The comments to the article seem to have far more clue than the author. In particular: "It's clear that a large part of the reason why people use BitTorrent is because the overall user experience is far better. Download fast with a robust, desktop app and no commitment (BitTorrent) vs download slow, with unreliable web browser and give-us-your-details marketing crap" So nothing to do with 'free-er than free'...
-
I suspect I'll be dumping 3UK in the coming months for much the same reasons -- poor coverage, weird signal switching and lousy tech support.
If you'll excuse the piggy-backing, I'm interested in identifying the most consistently reliable payg 3G broadband provider, particularly outside metropolitan areas.
While the price will have a bearing on my decision, I want a decent connection wherever I go (within reason!)
I'm guessing VF?

I thought it was appalling, fwiw.

How about half the current price for a ticket and (if you book more than a few days in advance) a further 20% refund if there's no seat available?
-
@carlplage: And I'd still not be guaranteed a bloody seat! Really peed me off to work out that it would only cost about £60 to drive (while wrecking the planet).
-
@danlane: Last week I checked the price of a return to Liverpool from Bath in 5 weeks -- it was over £160, and that was cattle class! :-o

'Ere, who you callin' "horrible"? :-) We've come a long way since open wagons and stout men shoveling coal...

Cool jazz in St James' cellar? Sounds almost appealing... ;)

Thanks for the tip @BUGabundo -- I tried to reply using just your id but the imbot is now offline for me! :)
-
... using the format -channel- -user- -message- (where "-" is purely a delimiter)
-
I replied from within GTalk (not least to check that imbot was actually working) using the format <channel> <user> <message>. If that's not correct, I'd appreciate a heads-up?
