Nope. Pre-order means you get it pre-release date (the 16th), mine comes in on the 9th.

So it's beta testing?
On the serious side, the headphones should also be really good. I have a lot of faith on AKG.

Phone wise, the far end of bog all. I haven't used a Windows phone for 4 years now because, while I loved my old WinPhone, the lack of apps was a complete phone killer for me.

The problem was more basic than that. Microsoft offered money for people to develop apps so low quality developers threw out low quality apps to get the money cheap.

I have always suspected that's how they wrote Windows 8 in the first place.

Anyway, I'm more than happy with Windows 8.

Ok, I believe you, but I get the impression that he is more of a celebrity here in Holland than in the rest of the world. I once read a book of him 'trawler' which was very enjoyable

Watch out with all those jokes, he has reached the limit of what is tolerable

Joke? I a serious. If it isnt about skiing it isnt worth talking about!

Sorry about that, don't want to risk war with both the Brits and the French.
But it seems that you are in British territory now, so maybe you can do some spying and sabotage on my behalf

What's most important is: does it come with an app to pre-order the s10?
mine's a s5; it's the average.
Signature ready for installation. Please Reboot now.

I'm feeling positively ancient with my iPhone 6 (the smaller one that fits my 5 cases), but it still does everything I need. And I'm writing this on a Dell laptop that I bought over a decade ago, running Windows 7.
Honestly, I think I should consider therapy to see if they can cure my loss of desire to try bright and shiny things. Maybe there's a pill I could take. Do they make a Tryagra?

Maybe when you get older, you get to appreciate the simple things in life more

Actually, I've been told that I was one of the simpler things in life.
