Pentax USA don't seem to have any online for film cameras.

They will not supply printed copies outside of the US.

I have one question re netbooks, with no CD/DVD or even floppy drive how do you re-instal the operating system if it crashes:
They have a built in recovery programme, plus of course you make a back up to a hard drive and to a DVD, using a portable DVD player, or your main PC to burn it.

Unlike the iPad they do have USBs .

A day digging the garden does it for me!

However, on the bright side, The Bus Pass (Never used yet - but good to have one just in case)The free swimming and the Winter Fuel allowance are all a bonus - oh and Wednesdays at B&Q
Not the same B&Q Polchraine uses I hope .

Careful there Gwyn you could have a point. I found my netbook really handy for travel. Not so much travelling now so the netbook is gathering dust
A quick reply before heading for bed.

My main PC lives in the attic. My husband's PC is in his Black Hole/music room/office on the ground floor. If we want to talk when both using our PCs we Skype each other.
With the netbook I can sit in the next room to him and surf and watch tv. I can also take it with me when I babysit the grandsons. So it will get lots of use, even when we aren't travelling.Just need a mouse now.
I shall investigate what there is and try some out.

Now to bed ready for tonight's episode of Book at Bedtime.

True John, but that's not what I meant.
Garth explained it in his previous post.

It's no good, I'm going to have to get a mouse for my netbook. I can't get on with that little touchpad. Not good for my arthritis and soooo annoying when I can't find the scroll area. Only thing I don't like about the netbook (so far!).

So tomorrow I shall be looking at mini mice.

Off to make a cuppa now.

Kids here buy Blackberry phones (or get their parents to buy them :roll as pinging is cheaper than texting.

At least that what my paper said today.

Not having a smart phone of any sort I couldn't say how good it is. My mobile can phone, and text, and has Bluetooth for the handsfree in the Prius. Sum total of it's smartness (and mine).
