Also, you don't need to whip the phone out, you can just grip it in your hand and swipe your hand, NFC will still work.

I have no doubt you will get slated for the comment but it is completely realistic. Everyone can work - doesn't matter what condition you are in - even if it selling items on eBay to make £50 a week. Unless you are spending 8 hours a day looking for work you cannot say there are no jobs.

VW to eliminate worst road hazard: drivers

Saturday 28th August 2010 15:44 GMT DannyAston

Miles

I cover well over 30k miles a year for work and personal, I can tell you now there is no way I could do that with 60HP and stay sane!

Also less BHP does not always mean better efficiency, to cruise at 70MPH in a 60BHP car it will be screaming at 5KRPM, this will actually burn more fuel then a 160BHP car sitting at 1.5KRPM.

BAE cops to arms-deal violation, pays $400m US fine

What a joke.

Firms operating on the continent carry out this sort of practice daily, BAE was fined because they are British. Is this how we should treat a company that employs 106,000 staff?
