My 'Spark to Icon' book arrived with an almighty thump on my desk this morning courtesy of Lee/Prizebot/Beoworld and I'm looking forward to having a good read tonight. Then it's iPhone day on Friday. It's like Christmas has come early this year! Many thanks once again to Lee for all his hard work making Beoworld what it is. See you

Well, £35 for parts and labour which is definitely better than £95 for a new pair I suppose - but 14 days without my A8s! I had thought I'd make do with the stock ipod earbuds in the meantime but I just had a listen and I'd forgotten how horrendous they were. At least i've got my Sony Eggos - a bit bulky but they sound good.
