I travel about three weeks of every month right now. The dune buggy business is still paying its own bills, but I'm spending most of my time with http://www.sunturbine.com right now.

Finalgear is a good way to deal with airplane boredom. I receive the RSS feed on an Outlook desktop and it forwards everything to my PDA. I have to be in my office to reply, though, which isn't very often these days.

Sorry guys but I have a quick question. I have noticed the occasional duplication of torrents, because vuk missed an episode or becuase of these scene rips etc and was wandering if they all would be placed in the feed? If so, I will download more than I want. I would just like the ~380MB vuk rips as I like those best images/smilies/tongue.gif

Great site btw images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

Actually, my bad!!! I just looked at the XML and it appears to be just single downloads. I would prefer to give the old rips a miss (I remember them the first time round and Jeremy Clarkeson really has gotten better with age) but this looks like a cool feed.

I would still like clarification as to whether you would be putting any duplicates in there.

Thanks

I like it.

Although a bit obvious to anyone who comes here often.
I am trying to think of something a little more witty. images/smilies/think.gif

But I won't complain if you make it that. 8)

I like the small footprint apps as well. No screenies though. Think you could post a few? A good GUI is a feature that is close behind the small footprint feature images/smilies/biggrin.gif
