Discussion in 'Android Devices' started by rleal2010, Jun 22, 2010.
Once you get the OTA update, post here and inform us all so we can be expecting it.
It's not announced or out yet. Right? Did I miss something?
someone said that they should be rolling out next week. I just wanted to make this thread so I would know who had received it.
I dont want to be last one without it.
Google has admitted that they are late releasing the source. You'll hear about the N1 getting the update first, they just have a beta floating around now.
I want 2.2 like a fat kid wants McDonald's hot apple pie...
Lol I saw that Pic and Immediately thought of the michelin man. Whadda ya know!!!!
Unless you are 35+ yrs old, or have traveled outside the US, sadly, you do *not* have any idea what a real MCD apple pie tastes like.
The whole world gets a nicely *deep fried* amazing hunk of love. We get a sad *baked* sibling that clearly was not the 'best of the litter".
It is one of the only reasons I stop at random MCDs in random countries.... True love...
OT - *if* we get this random OTA (over the air upgrade) - does this mess us up for the *root* currently starting? I would think the answer may be yes - in which case, I would like to block any upgrade until it is safe... Maybe this is the wrong place for this type of question/thought...
It will take away root. But once it is downloaded, it will ask you if you want to apply it, so you can block the upgrade.
What are the advantages of 2.2 I went onto Andoids 2.2 froyo website, doesn't even seem all that important, other than a few tiny tweeks, like the browser. What are you guys alls exctied about?
Read everything that is new. Quite a few major improvements. Everyone is wanting it so bad due to froyo claiming to be a crap load faster as well.
Android 2.2 Platform Highlights | Android Developers
well I was not born in the United States.... So I have been to other countries.. but I'm also not a fan of fried foods... or apple pie....
but to answer your question you should be able to stop the update and or not install it..
Correct me if I am wrong since this is the first android device that I have successfully rooted but rooted phones will not get the OTA update correct? We will have to flash the phone through recovery right?
I'm new to this android stuff, but I'm excited for what I hear about 2.2. When this update does come, how will one go about installing it? Or is it automatic?
Sultan: As long as you haven't flashed any custom ROM, you're fine. The update will happen just as it will happen for anyone that hasn't rooted.
Cramill: Kitten sacrifice, or OTA update; players choice.
So I take it no one has gotten the update yet....
Google released the code just this week. It will take some time for HTC to port it, and test it. That is if they really do intend on giving us the upgrade.
Ask any Behold 2 owner about promises to upgrade.
I have seen many places that N1 owners have been getting the 2.2 update OTA.
thats because nexus 1 is a google phone running completely stock android. All the other manufacturers have put there own little spin on android to make their phone 'look' the coolest and it makes it a whole lot harder to get updates that way because the mfrs have to integrate the code in with their own and make sure its tested and all that crap. It costs lots of money to do all that and thats why companies like samsung just make you buy another phone to get a new OS.... they don't want to spend the money testing it.

The Super Bowl was created as part of a merger agreement between the National Football League (NFL)and its rival the American Football League (AFL). The NFL had fended off several rival leagues since its inception in 1920 until the AFL was formed in 1960. The competitiveness between the two leagues for players and fans ultimately led to the merger of the two leagues into the National Football League.
The champion of each league would play against each other to determine the "World Champion of Football". The name was changed to the Super Bowl by the suggestion of Kansas City Chiefs owner Lamar Hunt.
The winner of the 2017 Super Bowl receives the Vince Lombardi Trophy, named after Green Bay Packers coach who coached the first two Super Bowl wins, along with three preceding championships in 1961,1962,and 1965.

Keene targets Pompey progress
By Kent Hedlundh
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
James Keene is hoping his success at GAIS will help him progress at Portsmouth.
Portsmouth youngster James Keene is hoping his success at GAIS will help him make the breakthrough at Fratton Park.
Keene moved to Sweden in March on loan until the end of the season after failing to win a place in Harry Redknapp's plans.
The young striker has netted two goals in four games with GAIS and he hopes his form will improve his chances of establishing himself in Portsmouth's long-term plans.
"I will give everything for GAIS, but once have you tasted the Premier League, you want more." Keene told Expressen.
"Unfortunately, my manager at Portsmouth, Harry Redknapp, has not been keen to give young players a chance.
"Portsmouth is really the best. The fans, the passion and the atmosphere at Fratton Park."

Channel Flow Development Length
I am writing a code in Matlab that computes the velocity profile between 2 stationary parallel plates. Set up: steady, incompressible, laminar, 2D flow. Reynolds number of 100, based on a velocity inlet of 0.02m/s and channel height 0.1m. Density and viscosity corresponding to that of air. I'm using the SIMPLE algorithm on a backward staggered grid, with upwind differencing.
However I am finding that my development length is much too short. Based on the Reynolds number, and relationship L/D=0.5+0.05*Re, L/D should be around 5 - whereas I am seeing L/D of closer to 1. The profile of the fully developed region is in close agreement of the analytical solution, it just occurs earlier than it should do.
Any ideas on what might be causing this?
First let see if understand your problem:
Air proprieties fluent: ρ=1.225 [kg/m3] and μ=1.7894e-5
Distance between plates = 0.1 [m] as 2h=0.1m
Dh (Hydraulic diameter) = 4h = 0.2 m
So v= 0.0073037 [m/s]
You want de Le:
Le/Dh ≈ 0.06*Re
So Le/Dh = 6 m
Residuals: 1e-6
Iterations: 2000 (for example) solutions should converge before 2000 iterations
Import Solution:
1) Create a line x=0 and y between -0.05 and 0.05 m
2) File-export-solution data
a. Fyle Type: ASCII
b. Surfaces: chose the line created
c. Quantities: Chose x-velocity
d. Save it
3) Open excel
4) File-open-choose the file saved
5) Dont forget to set separation comma to read the results

The Senate is scheduled to debate the Safe Communities, Safe Schools Act of 2013 (S. 649) today, which would require background checks for all firearm purchases and strengthen existing regulations on gun sales.
However, it is unsure whether the bill will get enough votes to pass. Sponsor and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) was struggling to get the necessary votes in a whip count on Monday. Currently only four Republicans – John McCain (AZ), Mark Kirk (IL), Susan Collins (ME), and Kelly Ayotte (NH) – have agreed to support the bill. Three Democrats have said they are still reviewing the proposal and would not commit to supporting the bill until after they had finished. Three others have not taken a position.

Hollywood's first feature-length film "Girl Walks Into A Bar" created specifically for the internet -- presented by Lexus and now playing in the YouTube Screening Room.
It's a comedy about a seemingly unrelated group of characters spending a single night at ten different bars throughout Los Angeles.
GIRL WALKS INTO A BAR connects a group of apparent strangers over one night across ten bars throughout Los Angeles. Zachary Quinto stars as a dentist who teams up with a feisty would-be assassin (Carla Gugino) to put the final touches on the plan to kill his wife. Once he makes a play for the assassin's payment, he unknowingly sets off a chain of events that fuels a crosstown journey through the many lounges, bars, strip clubs and the occasional nudist ping pong clubs scattered across Los Angeles. By turns funny and heartbreaking, this sharp-witted comedy features ten interconnected vignettes that build to a revealing finish.
Here's the full-lenth movie:

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for company stocks using the most recent rating from each brokerage that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Since brokers often use different ratings systems, each rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0-1.5 = Sell, 1.5-2.5 = Hold, 2.5-3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months.MarketBeat will no longer include ratings and price target data in its consensus calculation if a broker drops coverage and MarketBeat has received a report that coverage was dropped. Ratings from certain research firms that issue ratings using purely quantitative methods (such as Zacks, Vetr and ValuEngine) are not included in consensus calculations. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.Ratings Breakdown: 2 Sell Ratings, 3 Hold Ratings, 0 Buy Ratings, 0 Strong Buy RatingsConsensus Rating:Hold (Score: 1.60)Consensus Price Target: GBX 210Consensus Price Target History for Ferrexpo Plc (LON:FXPO) Analysts' Ratings History for Ferrexpo Plc (LON:FXPO) Show: Only the Most Recent Rating From Each Brokerage All Ratings For This Stock DateFirmActionRatingPrice TargetDetails10/30/2017Liberum CapitalReiterated RatingSellGBX 13010/24/2017Barclays PLCBoost Price TargetUnderweightGBX 130 -> GBX 21510/6/2017J P Morgan Chase & CoLower Price TargetNeutralGBX 190 -> GBX 17510/6/2017Deutsche Bank AGDowngradeHoldGBX 270 -> GBX 2808/8/2017Credit Suisse GroupBoost Price TargetNeutralGBX 200 -> GBX 25010/14/2016Jefferies Group LLCBoost Price TargetUnderperformGBX 30 -> GBX 509/5/2016MacquarieReiterated RatingUnderperformGBX 207/19/2016InvestecBoost Price TargetSellGBX 24 -> GBX 255/20/2016Beaufort SecuritiesReiterated RatingSpeculative Buy3/28/2016Renaissance CapitalDowngradeHold -> Sell3/10/2016Morgan StanleyReiterated RatingEqualwt/AttractiveGBX 3011/25/2015Bank of America CorporationReiterated RatingUnderperformGBX 24(Data available from 11/23/2015 forward) Earnings Earnings History for Ferrexpo Plc (LON:FXPO)No earnings announcements for this company have been tracked by MarketBeat.com Estimates Earnings Estimates for Ferrexpo Plc (LON:FXPO)No earnings estimates for this company have been tracked by MarketBeat.com Dividends Dividend History by Quarter for Ferrexpo Plc (LON FXPO)AnnouncedPeriodAmountYieldEx-Dividend DateRecord DatePayable Date8/3/2017$0.030.95%8/10/20178/10/20179/8/20173/22/2017€0.031.54%5/4/20175/4/20175/31/20173/22/2017€0.031.54%3/30/20173/30/20174/11/20173/11/2015€0.033.32%4/30/20154/30/20155/29/2015(Data available from 1/1/2013 forward) Insider Trades Insider Trading and Institutional Ownership History for Ferrexpo Plc (LON FXPO)Insider Trades by Quarter for Ferrexpo Plc (LON FXPO)Transaction DateInsider NameTitleBuy/SellNumber of SharesAverage Share PriceTotal TransactionDetails10/18/2017Oliver A G BaringInsiderSell6,000GBX 277£16,6209/5/2017Oliver A G BaringInsiderSell4,000GBX 313£12,5205/31/2017Christopher MaweInsiderBuy481GBX 173£832.134/12/2017Christopher MaweInsiderSell12,821GBX 159£20,385.394/14/2015Bert NackenInsiderBuy20,000GBX 67.70£13,540(Data available from 1/1/2013 forward) Headlines Latest Headlines for Ferrexpo Plc (LON FXPO) Source: All Sources Trusted Sources MarketBeat.com Bloomberg MarketWatch Motley Fool NASDAQ Reuters Seeking Alpha The Street The Wall Street Journal Yahoo Finance DateHeadlineFerrexpo Plc (FXPO) Given Consensus Recommendation of "Hold" by Brokerageswww.americanbankingnews.com - November 6 at 3:46 AMFerrexpo Plc (FXPO) Insider Oliver A.

Mor Chances brings streak
OZONE PARK, N.Y. - Mor Chances, untouchable in his last three starts, will be a deservedly short-priced favorite Sunday in the $65,000 Kim's Chance Stakes for New York-breds at Aqueduct.
A $50,000 claim by trainer Rick Dutrow last September at Belmont Park, Mor Chances has captured three consecutive stakes - two for statebreds and a New York stallion stakes - since the barn change. And he seems to be getting better with each start, as evidenced by ascending Beyer Speed Figures that hit a career-best 102 last time out in the Hollie Hughes Stakes at Aqueduct on Feb. 19.
Mor Chances and regular rider Richard Migliore will face only four rivals in the six-furlong Kim's Chance. Of that quartet, Executive Search could be the one who finally closes the gap.
After a two-month freshening by owner-trainer David Jacobson, Executive Search won a statebred claiming race here Feb. 13 while carrying a $14,000 claiming price. It was the first victory for the 6-year-old since Jacobson claimed him on March 28 of last year for $50,000.
"He ran a couple of good races when we claimed him," Jacobson said. "Then he seemed to tail off, and we gave him some time. He's coming back pretty strong."
Following that victory, Jacobson wheeled Executive Search back six days later to finish second to Mor Chances in the Hollie Hughes at 39-1.
"He came out of the claimer really sharp," Jacobson said. "The stakes was there with a short field, so we decided to take a shot. We're very happy with how it turned out and the way he ran. Now he's turning into the kind of horse we hoped he would be, and hopefully he'll continue to do so."
Perhaps Executive Search is now ready to give Mor Chances a serious run for the money.
Mor Chances, who has shown the ability to set the pace or rally from far back, has the outside post, while Executive Search has the rail with Eddie Castro set to ride.
"I don't see too much speed in there, so we'll have to keep him close," Jacobson said. "We're on the improve and we expect him to run better."
Platinum Couple also ran well in his comeback, winning a statebred allowance race with an optional claiming price of $25,000 at Aqueduct on Feb. 25, his first start since Jan. 27, 2008. Jorge Chavez has the return call.
Be Bullish and Little Wise Guy complete the field.

Although Waters has been tight-lipped about the album's contents, he told Rolling Stone in February that he has drawn inspiration from the antipathy he feels toward the Trump administration, as well as a dramatic radio play he had been writing before working on the LP about a man and his granddaughter investigating why children were being killed in faraway lands.
In an interview with The Daily Telegraph newspaper, he said: "Dave and I are not mates, we never were and I doubt we ever will be. Which is fine, there's no reason why we should be."Further discussing the Pink Floyd dynamic, he added: "I love Nick. And he loves me. We were always close. But you can be creative without being friends. David and I did a lot of great work together, which wouldn't exist without both of us being there."
The upcoming concert film will air one night only September 13th in over 2,000 movie theaters around the world.
"There are several songs that are close to being complete, which didn't make it onto this album," he says in the clip. "[But] I can't see myself doing another tour with making another album first, and that takes me awhile. It took 10 years last time, and I'm really hoping – without making any promises – that it won't take 10 years this time, that I'll get back in and start working again. And following that, yeah, I'll be out again."
F this weather. How was the movie?
Thank you to everyone who saw the Live At Pompeii film yesterday at one of the 2,500+ cinemas showing the film across 63 countries! If you missed it there are more opportunities to see it on the big screen in many cinemas from 14-19 September. Visit davidgilmourcinemat ickets.com for full listings of all future screenings.
Roger Waters has announced that he'll bring his Us + Them tour to Europe next year.The former Pink Floyd man is currently on the road across North America and he's now announced an initial run of six dates in Germany and Austria for May and June next year.Those will be followed by further live shows in the UK, Ireland, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Holland, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland – with further details to be revealed in due course.The shows will feature classic Pink Floyd tracks, new songs and material from Waters' latest album Is This The Life We Really Want?.

text: Hello All, So I am in the process of adding some PVR and media server features to my PC. I need to upgrade my video card and I could really use some help. I am using 128mb integrated video card that came with my Gateway PC. A friend had sold me an ATI Wonder a couple of years ago. However, I was not happy using it to watch TV. The quality was quite poor, although this might be related to how I was splitting my cable TV. The video card recently burned out and I went back to using the card that came with my PC. From my understanding I need a video card and a capture card. Or, I could use an ATI All In Wonder that has both of these features on one card. My understanding is that two separate cards will give me better performance. I've been looking at some of the Hauppuage cards, but I'm having difficulties telling the difference between some of them. I won't have an HDTV until next year so I don't need that functionality. Although, if it is not too much more expensive I would like to make this HTPC as future proof as possible. Any suggestions? If it helps the PC is a P4 1.8 mhtz with 256mb of Ram. When I do this upgrade I am going to add another 512mb. Thanks for all your help. Tom

At least 22 Boko Haram insurgents killed in Nigeria: army
Lagos, Sep 26 (IANS) At least 22 Boko Haram insurgents were killed during an attack in Nigeria's state of Borno, the Nigerian Army said on Sunday.
Four soldiers also died in the repelled terrorists attack, while two others sustained injuries, the army spokesman, Col. Sani Usman, said in a statement made available to Xinhua.
The attack came in three waves with the terrorists, using 36 hand grenades and rocket propelled launchers at Logomani, he said, adding that the troops recovered two AK-47 Rifles, one G3 Rifle and 36 hand grenades.
Boko Haram leader dispels news about his death on video
Abuja, Sep 26 (IANS) Abubakar Shekau, leader of the Nigerian Jihadist group Boko Haram, re-surfaced on Sunday in a video, apparently in perfect health, to deny he was 'fatally' wounded during a Nigerian army attack, as a military spokesman confirmed in August.
In the video released on YouTube, the Islamist leader, seen with a Boko Haram flag and flanked by two armed, hooded men, read a statement in Arabic, showing no trace of the wounds on his shoulders he supposedly suffered during an air strike carried-out by Nigerian armed forces, EFE news reported.
The Nigerian government has repeatedly announced the death of Shekau, who always replies with videos proving he is still alive.
Shekau replaced Mohamed Yusuf, the founder of Boko Haram executed by the Nigerian government in 2009, and is responsible for the kidnapping hundreds of women and children and forcing over two million people to become refugees.

Sorry for the late reply...
I had to reinstall both the Intel and then the NVIDIA drivers (thus two restarts), but i believe your method has worked!!
I initially did what was in my power to attempt to resolve the issue, and then i searched for hours online on forums, etc for a solution, but my problem seemed unique. Ive heard and known of the BIOS, but never mucked around with it, and with your excellent assistance it worked out (at first i didnt really think you were going to be much help (no offensive) with your first comment about installing the right driver for the OS, but i take that back haha).
Thankyou again for help, i believe my issue has been solved, still wonder what caused the BOSD haha, anyways your help has saved me sending it to ASUS which was going to be my next step!
The Kid Who Thinks He Knows A Lot, But Really Doesn't!

text: Hello everyone! I am posting this thread to ask opinions for a commercial bid I am doing. I have been in business through one season and have 14 residential properties and 2 commercial properties. This year we are bidding on a local park district with several parks and empty lots. I would just like some ideas on how I should bid the parks-by the acre, hour, sq foot, or if anyone has a better formula. Most of the lots are empty and would probably take no longer than 20 minutes to mow.

I initially got involved in 'There is No Planet B' , Stafford Green Arts Festival 2016 to help organise the Art competition, believing I could support the hard-working volunteers to achieve their ambition to increase and improve the quality of submissions. As the week long event looms I realise that I have probably gained as much as I have given. I have been welcomed into a new network of people who are passionate about the issues that affect our very existence on the planet, I have been appreciated for my personal efforts and professional expertise, and I have
ensured that Gainsborough [art]works can be a worthwhile
partner in events planned and run by others.
If I'm honest however, I have been most excited by the opportunity to immerse a little more of myself into the poetry world. Since my 'Doxey Marshes' poem has been published in 'The Poetry of Staffordshire' by Offa's Press, I have a new-found confidence in putting my random efforts out there. I have attended a few more events recently and remain in admiration of the wit and skill of performance poets. Their ability to not only weave words that make you think, read them out in a rhythm that draws you in, but
to have enough confidence to share them is also enviable.
So, back to the Green Arts, and this time the poetry competition. As we have Bert Flitcroft- the current Staffordshire Poet Laureate- hosting our Life of Riley [word] Cafe at Gainsborough [art]works on Thursday 3rd March, I thought it would be appropriate to have written at least one poem myself on the Festival theme. As is often the case, I awoke with a phrase in my head, "why do we name a hurricane?" and an attempt at writing a poem that
concentrates on internal rhymes and a rhythm that might suit
performing it has therefore occupied me this morning.
Off to send it to Carol Kirkwood now at the BBC!
Why do we name a Hurricane?
Why do we name a hurricane?
To comprehend it, befriend it,
and send it calmer on its way
'cause we listened to its' moans?
Why does Carol need to warn me
She's left Henry and Imogen's
On her way? She won't stay.
Like all the rest, at best,
She'll slap your face
Cause floods of tears,
pass through, forget you,
and leave you to pick up her mess,
and deny you should address
your fears for why she visited.
Like Abigail, Barney, Desmond
Frank and Eva before her,
she'll be the stranger at your door
you try to ignore.
You won't listen,
or see her eye glisten
when she tells you there'll be more.
That you called them all
with your wanting to progress,
to fill the plains with concrete plans
instead of wilderness.

A rowing machine is a great addition to any home gym. It offers a fantastic full body workout, and it's also easy on the joints. The choice to buy a rowing machine is easy, but finding the right one for you is not.
There are several different types of rowing machines (4 specifically), and each one offers its own unique rowing experience. Each one also offers its own form of resistance, which is the key thing to consider when buying your machine. Let's review each type, so you can get a better idea of which machine is the right choice for you.
Hydraulic Piston
Hydraulic piston machines rely on, well…hydraulic pistons to generate resistance. Most machines have two pistons: one on each arm of the handlebar. Typically, these machines allow for adjustable resistance, and is the only machine that gives you an independent workout for each of your arms. If you're trying to balance your upper body strength, you can set one arm to an intermediate level and one arm to an easier level.
The only drawback with a piston machine is that, on occasion, the pistons may leak oil. It's best to keep a mat underneath the machine to protect your flooring in case of a leak.
Piston machines are generally quiet, affordable and compact. If you're short on space, this type of machine is a great option.
The spinning flywheel of an air rowing machine is what provides resistance. Each time you pull the handle, you spin the flywheel and create wind. The harder you pull, the more wind you create. The more wind you create, the harder it will be to pull the handle. So with this type of machine, resistance is solely dependent on how hard and fast you row.
Air rowers truly do offer adjustable resistance, and you can make those adjustments whenever you want. There are no buttons to press and no pins to change. If you want more resistance, pull harder or faster. Want to lower the resistance? Just row a little bit slower or lighter.
Air machines tend to be larger than piston machines, but many models now offer a compact, fold-able design for rowers who are short on space. These models also tend to be a little bit nosier than others, but the noise output is still minimal.
The great thing about magnetic rowers is that they're virtually silent. As you may have guessed, this type of machine uses a magnetic brake system to create resistance, which doesn't generate any friction.
Like other machine types, magnetic rowers offer adjustable resistance, but tend to come with a larger footprint.
Water rowers offer you a true rowing experience. To create resistance, paddles are suspended in a tank of water. Each time you pull the handle, you spin the paddles and generate resistance. The feeling is very similar to what you would feel out on the water.
The same resistance principles that apply to air rowers also apply to water rowers. The harder or faster you pull, the more resistance you generate.
Water rowers aren't quite as noisy as air rowers, and they offer the same adjustable resistance. The pace at which you row isn't the only factor in how much resistance is generated. The higher the tank's water level, the heavier or more difficult the rowing will be.
This type of rower has a large footprint and tends to be exceptionally heavy.
The right rower for you will depend on how much space you have, your budget and your workout needs. Many advanced rowers prefer air or water resistance machines. For everyday users, hydraulic piston or magnetic machines are smart options.

Assuming you have to do this in SQL, you'll need to do it in three stages:

(Updated at 4:15pm, May 14th with Photography Blog's review) Following up my pre-release K10D News Roundup, since the reviews are starting to come out in earnest, it's time for the K10D Review Corral. (I think the phrase Review Roundup is being used elsewhere already). Everything has been earnestly positive so far, with Pop Photo leading the pack with their glowing review, but more sites are chiming in with in-depth reviews. I'll try to keep this post updated with reviews now that the camera is shipping and people are getting more time to play with it.
DP Review: Highly Recommended. This is probably the most in-depth review you'll be likely to find on the net, and one that is utterly uncompromising. Phil Askey writes, "It's a camera you get used to very quickly and never really leaves you searching for the correct setting or control. It's also a camera you can grow into, the unique exposure modes are both creatively interesting and useful, a range of options such as this encourage you to experiment. At just under $1000 it's a very strong proposition, so despite our reservations about the slightly soft image processing the K10D just scrapes a Highly Recommended." Link: DP Review's K10D Review
Copyright 2006, DP Review. Note: this image has been compressed for space in this blog and is not accurate.
Luminous Landscape: Technically, this isn't a review, and more of a reflection by a long time Pentax enthusiast. Michael Reichman says, "One can't really get the measure of a complex camera like the Pentax 10D after just a week of use and a few hundred frames. But, it didn't take me long to discover that this is a camera that the sophisticated user will find to be a pleasure to work with. Image quality is on a par with virtually anything else on the market, the camera is very feature rich, the price is right, and it therefore isn't a stretch to say that the K10D is probably the best value in a 10 Megapixel DSLR at this time. [...] The company has a venerable name with a lot of legacy brand recognition, at least among people who've been involved in photography for more than a decade. Though a very small company by any standard, with the K10D they have shown that it doesn't take a big budget to be innovative." Link: Luminous Landscape K10D Hands-On "reflection"
Pixinfo: This Hungarian review site shows off the K10D in minute detail, examining even the differences in rendering of photos from ISO 100 to 1600 made from RAW images converted with both Adobe Camera RAW and Pentax Photo Lab 3.1, so it's worth taking a peak to see comparisons of noise reduction and color. A must-see is the Shake Reduction video (MPG) they included. Link: PixInfo K10D Review and Test (Hungarian)
Pop Photo: Whetting our appetites for their full review and shootout that will come out with the February issue, Pop Photo declares the K10D a complete success. "After running the K10D through our normal battery of tests and seeing how it performs in real-world situations we can now say with certainty: Pentax has truly arrived in the DSLR category, and the K10D is a serious player in the advanced amateur DSLR game. Overall image quality is Excellent throughout the ISO range. Color accuracy is Excellent. Noise is exceptionally well controlled all the way through, and Resolution is excellent at all ISOs." Link: Pop Photo Review and Test
Fotosidian: It's in Swedish. And we know what that means, right? Windmill photographs. And pretty much 4 out of 5 ratings across the board. Link: Fotosidian K10D Review (Swedish)
ePhotozine: Looking at build, performance, and digital noise, ePhotozine is completely enamored with the K10D and give the camera a rating of 9 out of 10. "Pentax are back! With the possible exception of frame rate, made up for in part with the Shake-reduction and dual RAW capability, this camera is up there with Nikon's D200 and Canon's 30D. Packed with features that have been well thought out and are easily accessible in a body that has been built to withstand the pressures of hard use in typically English climates it has a lot going for it. If their lens line-up takes a similar leap in the next twelve months, Pentax will be back toe-to-toe with the big boys. This is a serious advanced amateur or semi-pro camera." Link: ePhotozine
DP Watch Impress: This team in Japan has been playing with the K10D since September and have been writing as much as they could on the pre-production model, but once the K10D was officially launched, they put together a solid review of the camera with sample images comparing them to photos from the Sony A100, Nikon D80, and Canon 400D. Link: DP Watch Impress K10D Review (Japanese)
DPNotes Giant List of K10D User Reviews: Keeping track of some user reviews at the DP Review forums, here you'll find capsules of some of the more prominent review threads by early adopters of the K10D. Link: Giant List
Digitalfotonetz.de: With 9 pages of details about the K10D for German readers, Digitalfoto.netz has put together one of the most concerted looks at the K10D, particular in its comparisons to the Nikon D200. Christian Lamker writes: "Result is "highly recommened" due to the good image quality (especially dynamic range, colour reproduction) and the enormous range of integrated functions such as Shake Reduction, Dust Removal, weather-sealed body, etc." Link: Digitalfotonetz.de Reviews K10D (German)
CNET: "A great feature set for the price, pro-level customization, and excellent photo quality make the Pentax K10D a bargain amateur dSLR. Only unremarkable performance holds it back from joining the pack leaders"... and this unremarkable performance they speak of? It hunts a little in low light. They're a little tough on the camera, but they give it a decent 7.7 out of 10. Link: CNET reviews the K10D
Sean Carpenter at Pentax Forums: Sean wrote up a great, tidy review of what it feels like to move up from the *ist DS to the K10D, and it's a review that's documented with lot's of pictures and real world impressions of using the camera. "I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the K10D, based on its ergonomics alone. It certainly takes some effort to realize the full potential of the images, especially at high ISO sensitivity. The rewards of the K10D are many, and many more with some time and effort - as is anything worth having in life." Link: Pentax K10D Review by Sean Carpenter
DCRP Review: Jeff Keller has finally put his famous Mickey Mouse figurine in front of the K10D, and he gives his highest recommendation to the camera he calls "exceptional." He underscores that the K10D's settings are set for people who will likely prefer RAW developing in post, and novices should remember to switch to Bright mode if they want to shoot JPEG. "All things considered, the Pentax K10D is an excellent midrange digital SLR. It offers a solid, well-designed body, rocket-fast performance, and superb photo quality if you get away from the default settings. It may not be a great choice for those used to live-view and scene modes, but if you're ready to dive into more serious photography, the K10D is a great choice. It earns my highest recommendation." Link: DCRP K10 Review
Photography Blog: 4.5 stars out 5. Get ready for 6 long pages and lots of pictures, because it's a very detailed review with plenty of attention to the ergonomics of the camera. "In summary the Pentax K10D is extremely well-built, complex but intuitive DSLR, with no corners being cut despite the relatively low price-point. There are lots of nice touches which show that the Pentax designers have put a lot of thought into how the camera will be used, and the camera is very responsive...The main negative aspects of the Pentax K10D are the supplied 18-55mm kit lens, which feels cheap and ill-matched to the K10D body, the noisy shutter release mechanism and auto-focusing system, and the lack of dedicated buttons for ISO and white balance. Overall we can highly recommend the Pentax K10D - not only does it have an attractive price-tag, but it is also a solidly-built, intuitive and responsive digital SLR that will meet the needs of the serious photographer."

The K10D Review Corral

Look at the Hungarian Review. Efficiency of K10D's dust removal feature is denied there.

BAD JPEG SHARPNESS: "When we reviewed the K100D we thought Pentax had got their image processing just right, however the single element of the entire K10D equation which left us scratching our heads was just that. Either a poorly implemented demosaicing algorithm or a strange choice of sharpening parameters means that while the K10D's JPEG images have plenty of 'texture' they can lack the edge sharpness we're used to seeing from semi-pro digital SLR's.
Pentax may well have been aiming for a smooth film-like appearance but I at least feel that the inability to tweak this out by increasing sharpness is a mistake. That said it's unlikely you'll see this difference in any print up to A3 size, it's a 100% view thing so you have to decide if that's important to you or not. To get that absolute crisp appearance you'll need to shoot RAW, and use Adobe Camera RAW or another third party converter (as the supplied converter produces similar results to the camera)." look at dpreview

Don't beleave Christian Lamker (photonetz.de) He is sponsored by PENTAX!!!

3rd Anonymous (above), regarding Christian Lamker's review: from what I know and what he has told me personally, he has never received any money or sponsorship from Pentax, or anyone else, for the K10D review on website. To say so is damaging, and anonymously is in even worse taste.
- Hesham said...
Just a word in reply to 'anonymous' who quoted Phil Askey from dpreview. I'd like to advise the reader to go and read through the whole review and see how highly dpreview thinks of the K10D. In fact the final verdict was a 'Highly Recommended'.
- Anonymous said...
Here's a link to every professional review on the Internet for the K10D.
The summary score given is a 89 making it one of the top 5 cameras rated on the site.
The score attributed to DPReview is an 87. I just checked and that's correct (when you average the ratings for each category of the camera). That's a pretty good score in my book.

Ok, here's my question re. the k10d. It's my first dslr--I've been a hold-out up to now because I just haven't seen the same color accuracy from my friends' digital shots as I've traditionally gotten from film. So I received my new k10d a few days ago and have already taken dozens of shots, and my first impression, much to my regret, is that the color accuracy is just not there. It's quite an easy test, actually, since I'm actually seeing what I'm photographing, and when I look back at the image (whether JPEG or RAW), it looks to have a bluish cast and about 1.5 stops overexposed. Can anyone explain this? I'm not here to bash the camera... I'm a life-long Pentax user, I'm just registering an honest concern.
- Chris Nielsen said...
It's so nice to have the shake reduction for all the A-lenses. Now we can use the A*135/1.8 and A*85/1.4 as well as a 500 mirror lense with SR. Sweet.
- r4 dsi said...
This is my 3rd dSLR and will probably be my last. I can't see where it can be improved. I know, all cameras have flaws and can be improved, but this one is so near perfect it is hard to believe.

{Craft} Yarn Wrapped Letters Nursery Gift
Need inspiration for a different take on the DIY monogram or a homemade nursery gift for a newborn? How about these Yarn Wrapped Letters:
To give you an idea of how long it takes me to get around to doing any of the projects on my Crafty Bucket List, I was inspired by this, made by co-guest Megan of Megan Brooke Handmade in Erin's Valentine's Day series at Nest For Less, almost four months ago!
Initially, I had planned to make a second version of this Baby Girl Yarn Wreath when Iris was born eight months ago, but somehow never managed to. Since I had yarn saved up for that project, it was easy to come up with these cute Yarn Wrapped Letters instead.
I love how they turned out, even though I didn't have enough time to get them perfect around all the edges . . . but that would have probably taken me another four months!
*Note: these are just as hand-cramp-inducing as the wreath was!
Happy Crafting!

My husband won't be excited about the baby until she gets here. That's just how he's always been. It drives me nuts, though! He also thinks babies don't really need anything... Not that he's entirely wrong, but hey, I still want my baby to have things! And some things ARE a must--that's the stuff I want to to get him to buy.
I see nothing wrong with getting a pedicure. Go to a reputable place and you should be fine. I love pedicures but almost never get them. There are "risks" to going to those nail places to get waxed or pedicures, etc, but they are rare and I think avoidable if you are careful where you go
Thank you
for the beautiful siggy!

Hoax Calls Putting Lives at Risk
2:11pm 9th August 2013
Portland's Coastguard is warning lives are being put at risk, after a number of hoax call outs.
A mystery person has been phoning-in fake emergencies across West Dorset.
Portland's launch site say the hoax calls began a couple of weeks ago and some days they've been getting 2 or 3 a day.
On a number of occasions when the chopper launched to an emergency, they found nothing.
It's a major cause for concern if the fake calls keep coming-in, with the Coastguard Agency saying people could die if Portland's chopper can't attend a real emergency.
A spokesperson from the Maritime and Coastguard Agency said:
"Search resources are always deployed just in case it is a genuine emergency. Hoax calls are dangerous and can put lives at risk, as rescue units dealing with these malicious calls may not be available for other incidents."
Dorset Police is investigating.

Pray with me that my twin girls will finish college at Ohio University and walk into good paying jobs. I had them late in life. They're father wanted them aborted,(because of our age)...therefore contributes nothing. I had it under control for the first year or so. It was hard but I was shuffling my finances to not take out loans. But one of my girls was holding a secret...she lost her scholarships. She was afraid to tell me because she saw how I was struggling already. Well, that added almost $9000.00 more to the equation. Needless to say she was not able to sign up for her second year...She and I both are devastated! college is so expensive for one...but I'm trying to help both my daughters to get degrees ! Now, I'm trying to encourage her, to hold on. My house is falling down, my car is in need of repair...and I'm tired from working long hours, swing shift, and juggling bills to make ends meet! Now I'm starting to feel the guilt...one daughter watching her sister continue her education (which she just lost one of her scholarships). Pray with me! I'm so tired! I work swing shift so I don't get to church like I used too! Really, really praying and coming against depression in my life & my daughters life! I'm to old for that now!!! Just need some saints to be agreement with me!!!
