[buxz777]

hiya everyone just a bit bored before work and thought id start another thread quickly , close it if you think its useless

as the title says really its the weekend , sat morn here in the uk , wandered how your handset will be used during the weekend planning on using it as sat nav for a long journey , going anywhere nice and taking pics perhaps upload a few , even planning on grabbing some new applications or even a new handset let us know what youre planning on buying or downloading and installing , attempteing a loose slider fix , fascia change, fix a mic or gps or something why not say here

personally ive just put some new music on my n96 , grabbed a new hiphop mixtape and some dnb sets from my mate so loading them on now , gonna use it all day at works as my mp3 player and sat nav

connected it to my ps3 last night but it didnt read the whole handset , just seemed to be the mass storage inside the handset so iam gonna try and figure out if the ps3 can find the n96 mem card as well or maybe its a firmware bug on the n96 so thatll keep me busy a bit also couldnt find my movies on the mass storage so will have to see what folder i have to put them in to show on the ps3 , this is all using home in connectivity folder

going to party later tonight so will use the sat nav then and maybe take some vids if they come out ok

tomorrow i fancy the zoo maybe so ill take some snaps with my n96 to send to my mates while iam there and maybe a vid call or mms as well as using my sony digi cam to get some nice pics of all the animals , on the way to the zoo ill use the sat nav and bluetooth my music to the car stereo (went to a safari park the other day and it was amesome wish id had a digi slr though you can get some amazing pics and was nice to see the animals with so much space some get so so close)

then when back from the zoo iam going to try and stream the pics to my ps3 and copy them to the hardrive of the ps3 so i can use the new photo viewer to mess about with them on the ps3 if not ill just use a mem card and my usb hub thats connected to the ps3

might aquire a dev cert for the new n96 or try too but i havent decided on that one yet hmmmmm

might convert a few more movies or download some prgrammes from the bbc i player :-)

looks like the n96 will be quite busy this weekend ha ha means lots of charging for the dark beast :-)

so everyone what part does your handset play this weekend ................

Every now and again I start using my N85 in a way I hadn't before.

Last night I loaded it up with season 7 of Family Guy. Great, each episode was around 115mb. So I could fit a whole season on , with loads of space left.

I was sat in the motor last night, waiting for the lass to do some shopping. I was playing family guy on the phone full screen, horizontally with DivX Mobile. I then thought, would the FM Trans work with DivX Mobile. Sure as heck, it does. I had a right chuckle to my self, playing family guy over the car radio whilst watching it on my phone.

I then had a second brain wave, a mate of mine has a 14" TV attached to his dash board, which acts as a Sat Nav Screen, and also a DVD player (DVD in boot.)

I popped round with my TV out cable, connected to his screen, and transmitted the sound via FM over the car radio. When the FM trans is enabled, this must stop audio going down the TV out cable, and just allow Video only.

Superb, Family guy in full deep rich colour with clear surround sound. Just superb.

Family Guy is THE best 'toon on telly, better than the Simpsons and Futurama (both of which I love BTW). I've also got my wife into it and when 'The Blue Harvest' episode was on BBC3, I let my 8 yr old twin boys watch it (BIG MISTAKE!!!!!) as they're both Star Wars mad! They were laughing more at me laughing and obviously didn't get what I found so funny. One of them didn't shut up about the pimped up Tie Fighter for ages, my daughter still goes boom boom tish, boom boom tish every time she watches a Star Wars film!

I really like Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and it's just come back from a mid-season break and unbeknown to me had been back a couple of weeks. I found the 2 episodes I hadn't seen, put them on my 5800's memory card (about 100mb a pop) and watched them at work last night. I've put the next few episodes and intend to get ahead of what I can see on Virgin1 sometime later this weekend by plugging my phone into my TV.

I agree it’s nothing less than superb, by far the best out there. Although I’d say it does sit behind South Park, in my all time favourites.

They may appear to be childish cartoons, but their messages and jokes are so much deeper and adult orientated its rib cracking stuff.

Family Guy can get a little bit too much if you watch it for long periods. With the "Remember when I was in that band." But on the whole it's superb.

I must admit, I hate Star Wars, so the Blue Harvest stuff didn't do anything for me, at all.

I've just had a re watch of some classic ep's. One where Peter goes for a prostate examination, and gets the Doc sacked on rape claims. The one where they move down south to incest country, Peter becomes Sheriff and Stewie plays the Banjo.

Some pure class episodes in all the pas seasons, really is way to many to name in all honesty.

I've just got to the point of getting the Mrs involved in it now, which she finds it brilliant.

I was into South Park in a big way too, went to see the film twice, once with my wife and then the following weekend with one of my best friends who I'd gotten into it. Haven't really watched it for a while, though I'm aware it's on MTV and Paramount Comedy. The best ever episode was the one when Korn came into town, a p***take of Scooby Doo!

The southern episode of Family Guy was on last week sometime. Seen it 2 or 3 times before but still gets me laughing.

it's saturday morning here and i just got home from work. this evening there's a farewell function for a colleague and we're all going on a maitai cruise with dinner/etc afterwards. i'll obviously be taking pictures (both normal and with panoman) as well as tooling around with the garmin gps. i might even make a phonecall or two :)

Some wonderful pictures there mate, were they all taken on your phone? I used my 8gig and N96 quite a lot as a camera, but haven't taken that many with my 5800 yet.

Back on track now though.....

My wife and kids have been in Scotland with her parents for the past week and should be back sometime later today. If the weather's like it is now, tomorrow I might take them to Hubbard's Hills in Louth, it's like a free park, very tranquil and nice. and then we'll go to Mablethorpe (Hi David C!!) to see if the sand racing's on as I've got a couple of friends who race. If we go I'll try the camera and video of my 5800 out and see how good it is.
