Blackberry has a facilty that allow many Emails to be sent realtime to your phone,trouble is i dont have one of those phones but is a app available for Android phones so that you can use the same facilty or a similar type of thing ???

Not sure about that, but Blackberry do a BBM messenger as a free download now.

I know nothing about Blackberry, but can't you achieve what you want via the 'sync frequency' settings on Android - albeit at the expense of battery life?

Require some help please regarding my ASUS android tablet,it has wifi but also has the 3G facilty,i fully understand all the main functions but one thing i am not sure about is when not using the tablet how does one put it in a state so that no screen or the tablet is on but so that the 3G side of it works in the back ground.

So currently when i turn it off the whole tablet shuts down including the 3G side of it as well,so how would i keep the tablet still able to accept call etc ??? cannot seem to find a standby facilty or would i use Airplane mode with the screen going on standby after a certain time duration.

It has a 751hors stanby 3G mode in the spec but i cannot work out how to activate it or what settings to alter,any Android tablet owners can help me on this one please.

Many thanks

got a problem on stockwatch, when I click on the trades or chart I get a click and an orange emblem with red mark inside pops up and nothing happens. This has only just started to happen, have tried disabling pop up blocker etc but to no avail. This is on my laptop running windows 8, my tower PC is OK
Help please?

edit..now sorted, Bar came up at the bottom of the page saying to enable pop ups on money AM did that and OK now, But why the problem before as I had never disabled them, I am inclined to got back to Windows 7 after this warranty runs out, Windows 8 has been nothing but a problem for me!

I am not happy myself with Windows 8, but how do you go back to Window 7?

samsun, I am not sure how to completely get rid of Windows 8 but I have a techy friend who does things like that for me if necessary. I have seen him do similar for other people and he always makes discs of all data on the hard drive first otherwise it could just disappear into the ether :-/ All installed programes can go as well so I suggest do try to find a friend like I have.
ps he would have sorted out my problem but I was trying to be a little independant. LOL

I find Windows 8.1 excellent, but if you don't :- How to downgrade your PC to Windows 7 from Windows 8

Thanks skinny

I've been thinking about getting myself a kindle for reading books.

Does anyone have experience of using one or maybe one of the entry level tablets that can double as an E-reader - Hudl etc?

Isn't that the kind of thing your kids / grand kids should be giving you for Christmas?!!! Better than slippers or underwear any day!!!

Yes, but probably a bit late for this year!

skinny,i have had my ASUS tablet for about a month and have to admit i am using it more these days than my main puter,i can do all the essential stuff and so much more.Have tried the E-Reader once just to show the wife how it works and was pleasantly suprised.

It will be one of the biggest selling presents this year and going forward,the sales of tablet will even take over the role of laptops for very day use.Both of those brands that you have suggested are nearly the same i would have thought,but the Hudl would be the one that i would part my wonga with.

Thanks Mega - I'll have a look over the holiday.

I don't really want to buy a high end tablet as I have enough current technology kit so may spend a bit more when the next generation becomes mainstream.

skinny,what i done is i went into a shop and actually held one and found the best one for me then went on Ebay and bought the same item for well over a 1/3 off for the same item.

Out of principle i wont buy a high end one made from Apple when another brand like Asus who make the Google Nexus can do basically the same thing for half price.

Maybe its because i am tight with my money :o)

Can anyone help???, using windows XP obviously old on my Pc. Of late had messages from various sites saying need to upgrade to a faster browser so downloaded CHROME and everything fine until I get to STOCKWATCH here on money am where I had to enable java , java 7 update 45, and this is working fine except I cant get the NEWS N articles to open out on the individual stocks, eg, today DXNS reported but when I click the N at side of epic nothing opens out, nothing happens.

I used to before get a message at top of page saying something like click if you trust this site but not getting that now.

Can anyone help please?

GF - you might find some help (no guarantee) here.

cheers Skinny, its a bit puzzling, well for me it is.

Skinny,

I was given a Kindle by my kids for an Xmas gift.

The major draw back for me was that I like to scan 1 or 2 pages at a time and then re-read more slowly.

(If I have an article longer than half a page to read, I prefer to print it out and read the hard copy.)

I found doing this difficult with the Kindle, but found it more comfortable and easier on larger flat back.

Probably down to age and I know that the Kindle is used by my Kids (in their 50s) for reading travelling to work and they are very happy with them.

The idea is good, but it would be nice to have a screen like a book which you can open to 2 pages.
