Galaxy tab 8.9 is a bit of a niche market device. Might have questionable support sooner rather than later.

Nexus devices are the favourites right now. Expect to see new versions released mid year with updated hardware as new chips about to be released. ie tegra 4.

Everything thing else is a bit long in the tooth been around for a while.

Samsung just released galaxy note 8.

Probably best of the samsungs tech wise at the moment.

As far as non manufacturer support check xda forum and see how much your preferred device is being discussed.

I suppose it gets caught up one too many times when working out

F..k knows,

It just died in the ass

I bought both a Sansa Clip and a Sansa Fuze from Ebay. Both were "refurbished" models, but looked brand new. I think I paid $50 for the Fuze and $40 for the Clip, that was including shipping from the UK. Had both for over 6 months with no problems. Amazing sound for an MP3 player.

Their size is perfect to clip on your waist and run headphones up the inside of your singlet / tshirt when at the gym or running etc.

Might just order another one, think this will be my 6-7th now. Usually the problem is the headphone jack starts to loose its connection and cutting out one side headphone.

I wish north korea would point their missile there.

So, you wan't a nuclear weapon aimed at Pattaya

lol

Never once did I say anything about me and pattaya.

I wish north korea would point their missile there.

Just saying that the average schmo that comes to thailand is of the same mental capacity as the average fortuna driving Thai fella. In my opinion of course.

And was wondering if there was any link

There's bogans in every country for sure. But this country and attracts more than its fair share..

Case in point. Just spent a flight next to a guy who 2 sentences into our pleasantry conversation started talking about pattaya hookers and how not to trust them or marry them.

Looking at myself dressed in smart casual. Button up long sleeve shirt and jeans, mocassin slip ons..

How did he expect me to be a monger.

Dunno about that. Looking at the plane load of beer singlet, thong wearing, tattoo fest every trip to work has me thinking otherwise.

Just finished a stint working away in the oil game where i work along side the formally uneducated.

Myself included.

28 days of managing the bitching, the whining and general douchebaggery of my team.

Last night after about 6 pints, laying on my bed at the transit hotel i came to the realisation that i choose to live in a country where most of its natives act in a similar way..

And to add further, the general tourist / expat is of the same social status, blue collar working class, un educated past high school.

Is Thailand a magnet for people like us?

Is it because Thai people are our asian social equivalent?

Looking for mp3 player in Bkk

Small, with a clip. Size matters more than gb capaciy.

So far ive killed:

SanDisk sansa clip

Sansa clip +

Sansa clip zip

Sony clip(current one at sony shops)

Apple isnt an option because i run linux on my computers.

Havnt tried any copy mp3 players in mbk or fortune.

Id get another Sandisk sansa clip but cant find them in bkk. The size is perfect

So now it sticks out like dogs balls in the corner

Burger king at MBK seems to be a hit with travellers wanting to savour the cuisine of sth east asia

Yeah, I work manual labour on an oil rig. So I use deadlifts, squats and back extensions as insurance.

It also educates you how to lift properly when doing lifts at work. Always with the legs and straight back. I see some other guys lifting stuff at work and just cringe.

they wont last

A Guy at work had the p90x videos.

I watched them all and while I prefer weights, some of the body weight stuff was interesting and gave me new ideas and insight for making up workouts when away from the gym.

Squats with your back against a wall and holding it for a minute left me sore the next day.

Burpees are good too.

Weighted..I'm into dead lifts these days. Love it probably call my ones Romanian though

Salt is the worst..

When I put the toothpaste in my mouth and realise it's super salt flavor I think

Just putting it out there.. but ill be hibernating for the few days it's on.

Once is fun.. but I dread songkran these days

I put my oldies up at central hotel above central world.

Hotel is ok, but position is perfect for them to wander around, shop and eat.

Easy walk to siam paragon, catch bts

I enjoy I getting a straw with my 2L of milk.

One day I will strut around the store drinking it with a straw.

Foreigner

Like drink milk much!

I posted a link elsewhere but...

Look up

Offshore vs. Onshore

On YouTube

Pretty much sums the life up

Awesome...

+1 for learning the ropes with service companies.

But you gotta want to learn and not just looking for a job chasing a hook around the deck or doping a pin.

Lots of pressure, pay is reasonable but less than rig crew (for the first years). More like apprenticeship wages i guess.

Sometimes busy, most of the time watching movies and eating all day.

After 5+ years work is worldwide if you want it.

Safety pushers love giving us a hard time. Ha ha

Umbrella is a good one. Told to get the camera I came back with the umbrella.

My all time favourite was "circus paradise" in Queensland Australia.

What if the ugliest woman and the ladyboy had it on together....

..and I stood in the corner and watched while rubbing one out.
