I just tried Moshi. It works but I wouldn't recommend it. You can't pinch-zoom on Flash and the screen is too small/low-res for fine-grained finger touch so you constantly tap on the wrong thing. That's the reason I think I'll stump up the extra few quid for the ones with the higher-res screens. 4 of these for the price of one iPad!

We already have an IPad2 and an Asus Transformer 1for the two older kids, but I think that approaching XMas we'll pick up two more tablets, for the two younger kids. Amazing value. In fact I am very tempted to get one for myself for when I am out shooting wedding videos. Nervous to bring a 400+ euro tablet out with me in case it gets damaged, but I'd happily bring an Eken out with me. Maybe the IPad sized one. The big question though (and your daughter may answer this), will it play Moshi Monsters!! I presume it has full flash enabled browser? Again, great review.

The best bit for me is that Justice Charleton even fails to quote the famous Colmcille case correctly. he attributes the quote to Colmcille, when it was King Diarmaid who said the words, according to scholars: http://www.law.ed.ac.uk/ahrc/gikii/docs2/corrigan.pdf Colmcille, in fact, was the original pirate.... hey Conor — just found this post on google. you’re spot on.

You'd spend hours typing them in and then they wouldn't work due to a single error. The twin-tape deck was the bittorrent of the 1980s. One of Alan Sugar's few true innovations. @Ann - That would be top fun!
