I'm climbing the walls worse than I did when I quit smoking.

!!! BASTARDOS !!!

You guys are freaking annoying. I'm gagging to play but have to wait until at least midnight :/

FWIW, I received my Paypal refund during the early hours of this morning. It was the refund that made me look into the order status, which was cancelled.

I've not received any information from Woolworths though

I along with three friends have had ours cancelled through Woolies .

The games look pants to be fair, An not being able to sit down playing is a real shitter who wants to stand up racing

Most of the games do look shit at the moment but you should know that they've apparently fixed the sitting down problems (that's the only reason I'm still ...

Just to add that it's worth going via QuidCo as the order tracks at ?3.60, no idea if it'll pay or not though.

@ Clubber, I think everything is done from within the XBMC settings panel with Dharma. As it's a beta there are only a couple of skins currently avalible; to install them you have to do it from within the settings menu.

I'm currently running an installed Live image as I cannot figure ...

40% but I bought it before I landed myself a house. Now I'm stuck with it for the foreseeable :s

Cheers m8, got mine today and they sound great plugged into my Hero

That's brilliant

It's just turning into another Veria situation. I think Cesc is the nuts but if he wants gone then let him go. He'll only regret it when he ends up on the bench at Barca week-in, week-out/

Sorry Chris, my m8 is being a complete gimp and not giving me a definite answer. If funky wants him let him have it otherwise I'll take it (and stick it in the cupboard as a spare if needs be)

Erk, I hadn't checked that but will when I get home

What's it like for playing back media over the wifi ?

Cheers willp

For those that don't already know, here's the page where you turn your Beta code into a 360 XBL download code ....

I don't know if you'll be able to play files from the drive but this certainly gave me access to the folders from Astro File Manager w/ the SMB addon:

Sorry, had that the wrong way around :s
It was this ! Setting the LANMAN to allow plain text passwords to be received by the ...

Yeah I'd so go Qnap for the reasons blaggard states.

I stupidly bought a Linkstation Pro as I had read about putting custom *nix firmware on and getting the Linkstation to do more than just host files. My friend bought the Qnap. 6 months later, he's like a pig in shit and I'm still ...

Ok from what I can gather about the Beta admission:

There is a very limited target number (a few thousand places).
If that hasn't been filled by the 21st July additional invites will be sent out, every other day, until the target is reached.

Good Luck !

Looks like the dashboard is going backwards to me. The 3d / slanty layout looks much better than this Windows Mobile 7 flat panel shite. It also looks like MS are really going after the younger / casual market, this update (to me) is targeted straight at the Wii. *sigh*

You say "no drivers required", am I right in thinking that these are both Microsoft Media Centre compatible clones ? I've got a friend who's after one for his Revo/Boxee machine. If they're compatible, I'll make sure he's still in need and grab one for him

bah still havent got a code, is the beta any good ?

It's alright but as it's a Beta a lot of stuff is locked down and the map rotation is very small (2 maps I think and 2 game types). The game plays a lot like GoW, Socom and SplinterCell.

If you can get on, it's worth ...
