<p>It makes such a big difference, especially on my Mac, when comparing to what I had before (a nasty LG 17&#8243;)&#8230; Colours actually look right, and I don&#8217;t have to position my head dead-centre in order for it not to look inverted!</p>
<p>There have been several rumours flying round, saying that the 2408WFP&#8217;s have input lag problems. However, I don&#8217;t play games that much, and the few times I have (Half-Life 2: Death Match), I&#8217;ve noticed nothing. I do, however, watch a lot of (HD) movies on my PC: I&#8217;ve noticed no lag in these either. To be honest, a few milliseconds here or there really isn&#8217;t worth complaining about <img src='http://www.fr3d.org/blog/wp-content/plugins/smilies-themer/Silk/emoticon_tongue.png' alt=':p' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>All I need now is a new GPU so I can actually play modern games at 1920&#215;1200! <img src='http://www.fr3d.org/blog/wp-content/plugins/smilies-themer/Silk/emoticon_smile.png' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>Well&#8230; I got it on contract, but hey, same thing :P</p>
<p>It&#8217;s the new Sony Ericsson K800i, complete with 3.2 MegaPixel camera, Bluetooth, Video Calls and everything else you&#8217;d expect from a high-end phone <img src='http://www.fr3d.org/blog/wp-content/plugins/smilies-themer/Silk/emoticon_grin.png' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>So far I&#8217;m very impressed with it &#8211; very easy to use and setup. The PC software works well for transferring files, and the synchronisation application is neat too <img src='http://www.fr3d.org/blog/wp-content/plugins/smilies-themer/Silk/emoticon_smile.png' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>The camera takes great photos, and the flash is pretty useful too &#8211; it also has an orange/red light that comes on while focusing to help reduce any red-eye in your photos. There is a built-in mp3 player, which can play through the hands-free kit or through the on-board speaker &#8211; the speaker sounds pretty decent, considering how small it is.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re having a hard time choosing phones, or can&#8217;t chose between this one and another one, you can&#8217;t go wrong getting this one. I may have only had it a few hours so far, but it&#8217;s hugely impressed me so far, and I doubt it will fail to impress you either! <img src='http://www.fr3d.org/blog/wp-content/plugins/smilies-themer/Silk/emoticon_grin.png' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Edit: I&#8217;ve taken some photos of it, view them <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fr3d/" target="_blank" title="My Flickr Page">on my Flickr</a> page. I also took a few comparison shots showing how small the new Sony M2 memory card is compared to a normal SD card &#8211; these are also on my Flickr page <img src='http://www.fr3d.org/blog/wp-content/plugins/smilies-themer/Silk/emoticon_smile.png' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>This is my second attempt at writing this post/review, as my browser closed the wrong tab and then lost the entire thing!</p>
<p>Anyway&#8230; Since watching Stealth earlier this year, I have been looking for the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_score" title="Film Score on Wikipedia">original score</a> for it. I already have the &#8220;Music from the motion picture&#8221; soundtrack, but the original score is different. For a start, it&#8217;s a lot better than the rest of the music from the film&#8230;</p>
<p>The majority of the music in this score is written by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Transeau" title="BT / Brian Transeau">BT</a>, better known for his Electronica and Dance music, the score is still very well done, with a good mix of more &#8220;classic&#8221; movie music and then some of BT&#8217;s expertise in electronic sounds and mixes. Music from Michael Dimattia and Trevor Morris also features in this album.</p>
<p>I bought the album from <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/" title="Amazon.co.uk">Amazon.co.uk</a> on Sunday, and it was delivered to me on Tuesday. Since receiveing it, I have listened to the songs on it between 7 and 26 times&#8230; They really are <em>that</em> good <img src='http://www.fr3d.org/blog/wp-content/plugins/smilies-themer/Silk/emoticon_smile.png' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000ALF8FQ/202-9906508-8137430?v=glance&#038;n=229816" title="Stealth - Original Score">Stealth &#8211; Original Score</a> &#8211; Highly Recommended for fans of both Electronic/Dance music and Soundtracks/Classical alike <img src='http://www.fr3d.org/blog/wp-content/plugins/smilies-themer/Silk/emoticon_smile.png' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
