Palm Pre - a great first-time smart phone
Pros ---- Sleek look and comfortable to hold, light as a feather Nice size - fits in virtually every handbag phone slot I have Good looking sleeve bundled with the phone Good camera - fast and easy to use Fun to use - the flick off function is slick and feels great! OS looks great and gestures become intuitive Phone app is easy to use Search function for names is slick and fast to use When Facebook app is installed it collects profile photos from Facebook and uploads them to your contacts - nice! Cons ---- Absolutely rubbish battery - 1 day max on limited use Apps sometimes slow to load, even everyday ones like the phone or email QWERTY keyboard doesn't have enough room to hold the phone and type, particularly "A" - not good if you have even slightly long nails Charger slot cover feels very delicate - like it might break off easily Low number of apps and not particularly useful ones In-box user guide has no useful info in it at all - you have to download the one from O2 Calendar reminders are fixed up to one hour (not 2 or 3, etc.) and up to 1 day (not 1 week, etc.) This is my first proper smart phone - my last phone was the Samsung Tocco Ultra which, I have to admit, was a good precursor to using this one, since it replicates the slide and touchscreen funtionality. I went for the Pre instead of the iPhone because, well, everyone has an iPhone ;) Plus the Pre is much smaller and feels a lot more comfortable in the hand. I found the phone very simple to get along with - the OS is intuitive and the "flick-off" function for closing apps is rather cute. The card view is a useful way to multi-task and works very well - the apps are quite slow to load but once loaded respond very quickly. However, I have had an issue with the phone app - when taking two calls at once, the app seemed to overlap itself when the second call was closed, meaning I couldn't actually do anything with the first call. Perhaps just a glitch, but a pretty big one. The phone feels great to use, although I am stuggling somewhat with the QWERTY keyboard. There doesn't seem to be enough room on the left hand side to hit "A" correctly each time, and the keyboard feels quite condensed in the centre. However, the key special characters and all the numbers are available as a higher function of the keyboard, and the cycling ability to keep Symbol Lock or Caps Lock on all the time is simple to use. It took me a little time to find out how to change settings in each of the apps - longer still to work out how to manage the volume for alarms! This is however due to the extremely poor user guide included with the phone. the online version contains more information but is still very vague in terms of settings control. The copy and paste functions seems to be available in virtually every in-built app which means copying addresses from text messages into the contacts list is just like using it on a computer. In short, a great looking, intuitive and slick phone - needs charging every day but my next purchase will be the Touchstone. Looking forward to more apps and an extended battery ...

Large Silver Antique Style Wall Mirror 6ft7 x 4ft7 (200cm x 140cm)

Gorgeous room-sized mirror
I bought this mirror to go in my smaller bedroom as I pole dance and have been looking for a good value large mirror with sufficient height to view the full height of the pole. Everything about this mirror is worth the money - it is well constructed, good quality finish and looks great in my room. For the money I paid I would have expected it to be a little less good quality but I couldn't find a single flaw, either in the glass or in the frame. The antique style isn't too "antique-y" so it looks good even with modern decor. The silver colour is slightly aged, which adds to the mirror's character, and the frame is sturdy enough to free-stand the mirror rather than hanging it. I'd recommend this mirror to anyone looking for a large mirror in an attractive style at a great price!
