  1. Airports are the best place to get one - try and find someone flying out of Heathrow or Gatwick and ask them to buy it for you. Other than that most places charge a similar price.
  2. The 2 tone dialling tone usually means you have a message - try dialling 1571 to see if you get anything. As for not ringing when you call - sounds like you have a fault somewhere. Who do you pay your line rental to? They are the company to report the fault to.

  5. £3 is plenty to spend - as HDMI is digital it makes no difference in signal quality. If the bits get through then the picture will be the same on a cheap one or an expensive one. I bought one for £3 to go with my HD media player and the signal quality is superb.

  22. Soem of you may already be aware of Dropbox but I only came across it yesterday. Very useful way of backing up/sharing files online with multiple PCs and also no users of the service. 30 days of versioning of your files to. You get 2GB space for free plus additional at a fee. You also get an extra 250MB for every one you refer or if you are referred by someone else. I have installed it across my work laptop, wifes laptop, and home pc. You can also install it to a USB stick so you can use it on any pc - I travel a lot so will be very useful for that. This is my referral link if anyone fancies trying it out - https://www.getdropbox.com/referrals/NTIwMjE1OTc5 Interesting article here on other uses for it too - http://lifehacker.com/5358983/use-dropbox-for-more-than-just-file-syncing
