Woohoo - the GoPro is only 225g - i just weighed it

...im just searching on eBay for a decent camera mount for my GoPro HD and found these: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 0758396901 Its obviously a knock off and is coming from China, but for £1.69 who cares if it's crap... I know it's not a car mount, but i'll be looking to butcher this and modify the feet with suction mounts.

Cant you just measure the outer diameter of the balast? Then if you cant find an o-ring of thiat size then use something else such as double sided tape, or silicone sealant etc.

I hate the thought of it... and just wait until the government piggybacks onto it and starts dishing out retrospective speeding fines when they know where you were and what speed you were doing

That made me laugh! ...the missus called me a jerk though for telling it to her and said it wasnt funny.

Thats not a bad idea actually... Im in the market (next 12 months) for a new TV anyway, so i might as well wrap up the cost of a media player/solution into that. Im after a Samsung ue55 d8000... sexy tv However with regards to streaming... my xbox is on a wired connection, and i stream from my laptop via xbox media center, but my laptop is not wired... and i suffer major slowdown issues. How do people get around this? Guess it must depend on what size file you are streaming and the wireless speed. Ive a dedicated media pc plugged into my home cinema setup which I use xbmc on, buts its a wired internet connection. I stream video from that to my laptop in the garage wirelessly to play on the plasma screen in there without any problem. Is the d8000 that borderless LCD model? If so id checkout the reviews on it before buying. I was considering one of them and opt`d for the 50" Panasonic ST30 instead. Much better picture quality but not as sexy looking physically! That's the one... i fell for the borderless screen - it looks fantastic while playing Avatar on Bluray. You may be right though regarding picture quality for general viewing... i'd heard it wasnt the best... i'll do my research before committing to anything. Cheers Wayne, i'll investigate.

I did originally want to go for the Western Digital option as my existing external HDD is WD - but i read a few forum posts (i cant find the site they were on now ) slating it, saying it was slow and temperemental, which i really want to avoid... so anyone with first hand experience of one would be useful. I watch a lot of movies in this manner, and want something that is 100% reliable... i cant be doing with flaky performance.

Does anyone here have any experience with hard disk media players? I'm currently in the market for a new external HDD but thought I'd go for a media player this time so I don't have to keep putting my movies onto a memory stick to play on my Xbox. I know there are cheap options out there such as the sumvision range, but I'd like to know what I'm buying is upto the job. A big point for me is that it also must have a network connection so I can upload to it remotely... So what I'm after is as follows: 2TB HDD HDMI Network point Play all file types (MP4, mkv, H264 etc etc) Ive been looking at the LaCie La Cinema range which looks pretty good, but I'd like to spen a bit less than their £180 if possible. The last point I'd like... I've got a nice little video camera that records in AVCHD format (.mts) but it won't play on anything I've got... Has anyone had any experience with this format and got it playing on an HDD media player? Cheers.

My theory is that your favourite car is decided upon when you' re a child and that choice will stick with you for life.

Very cool.

...but it's my favourite car ever, so f*** off...!

It would help if the pictures were in the same order as the poll.

This.

Will be following this as we're looking at getting married abroad in July 2013 in the maldives i think.. or Bora Bora if i can save up enough

That looks awful I think i'd be a fighter...

Did anyone catch Racing with the Hamiltons on BBC 1 tonight? It's a documentarty inside the life of the hamiltons, focussing on Lewis' younger brother Nic and his attempt to get into motorsport. Really good watch.

Agreed.

Best feeling ever waiting for a new car... enjoy it.

I like to see rare cars but i'd prefer the Lancia in the back ground. Good work, love these posts.

Looking good rich

You may need spacers in order to get them to fit over the brembos with those offsets...

Agreed. One of my all time favourites, and would be one of the first cars i buy with a lottery win

Oh, and ALL the others too Cheers me old...!
