would this work to relay the signals to the android app?

OBD connector to usb - usb to usb adapter - then your usb data cable to phone

or something like this: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/High-Quality-micro-USB-USB-Female-Cable-USB-OTG-N900-/190507971718?pt=AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item2c5b28f486

How do I get my HTC to mark emails as read in my hotmail inbox when i mark them as read on my phone?

[Madaz]

not sure you can but why do you want to? you can get it to delete the email but not mark as read

personally myself i use windows live mail for hotmail and sort emails by conversation to all duplicate subject email get put into a bank then i can select the last email from that conversation and visit thread the right click and select all press delete and then its all good

Haven't justified buying a SSD yet given the amount I don't use the computer.

So I picked up a $100 Seagate Momentus XT 500gb. Damn its made an impressive difference to how windows boots, shuts down and generally runs. Noticeably smoother.

Recommended for those who'd rather sink $$ in to something else than a computer but want a smoother running less crunching/clunky computer. All though an extra $100 will grab an SSD these days.

[Madaz]

is that a hybrid drive?

EDIT

google answers all

[Nightcrawler]

Yeah I am going to pick up a couple of Momentus soon too .... I currently have 2 x 64Gb SSDs as my Windows and Program files drives (non-RAIDed), and whilst the speed is great, every time I need to load a file off one of my storage drives the pause is unbearable. It is not a huge pause, but with a hybrid drive I would buy 2 and mirror raid them - that way I could fit my Win7 install, program files and current Torrent data on the 'one' drive, which I think would be significantly faster than my setup is now.

Have you done any read/write tests Joel?

[Race__24]

I have been running a XT for a while now, changed from a first gen SSD. I have to say that it's not massively slower, easily offset by the 500G size and cheap price.

I'm not sure benchmarks are going to show how these drives perform. They only have 4G SSD which the drive stores regularly accessed data. From what I have read all writes go to the mechanical side. So things like random reads etc may not be that great unless they are run several times over. I'll see if I can find the article where I read this.

I wouldn't mind checking out the hybrid function on a Z68 system to see how it performs with a 60G SSD and a 1T HDD. If only I had the coin to upgrade ATM

[Madaz]

^^ yeah i half did that upgrade i have a Gigabyte GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3 $139 and a i7 2600k $330 and 8gb of gskill sniper ram 1333 $69

it is a lot more faster to boot into windows now and i only have blue and green WD drives both 7200rpm

i will look into SSD one day just not really sure what route i should take

[Nightcrawler]

This looks very cool, people - maybe we should do an SAU thing this month while it is free?
