Within 36 hours of sending my Archos 604 Wifi back, Amazon had processed a refund - still waiting for the money to hit my account but that should be any day now. I am close to ordering a
Cowon A2 - amongst other things it boasts a 10 hour battery life for video viewing which is awesome. It's received universally great reviews and athough an A3 is coming out, that will be more exoensive and doesn't even have a Korean release date yet, let alone a US/Europe one.

It's almost certain that Friday Night Lights has had a 2nd season commissioned which is awesome news - finally a show I like that doesn't get cancelled at the first opportunity. I fear Veronica Mars may not be as lucky, it has had 4 good seasons though.

Best issue of Total Film ever:
+ Star Wars photo book supplement
+ Pirates of the Caribbean 3 on the cover and the main feature inside
+ Natalie Portman interview, and accompanying photo which is amazing
Reviews still suck though, 4 stars for Spidey 3, corporate kiss-arses.

On Wednesday the Miami Dolphins v New York Giants at Wemblet tickets go on sale - advantage of signing up months ago? I get a presales link for tickets on Wednesday, along with the other 500,000 that signed up! Chance of getting tickets is slim but I live in hope.

Charmed Season 8 has finally been released so I bought it yesterday - that'sour weekend sorted because our original plans have changed, our trip to go and see Steve and Kati has been put on hold as Denise is suffering from a rotten cold/flu. She was off work on Wednesday, had her day off yesterday and is hopefully on the road to revoery, but still carrying too much 'ill bits' to be around a 5 month old baby :(
