Is it best to buy an iPhone 4 now, or wait until the iPhone 5 launches? PC Advisor investigates.
The Apple iPhone is one of the most popular smartphones in the world to date. If you haven't already got your hands on the iconic device, then we guarantee that you're either currently considering opening your wallet ready to hand over your hard earned cash in return for the shiny device, or you have done so in the past.
One of the questions I get asked most by friends, family and our readers is 'should I buy an iPhone 4 now or wait until the iPhone 5 comes out?'
See also Apple iPhone 5 launch: as it happens
iPhone 4 or iPhone 5?
It's worth pointing out that Apple has still not confirmed it is planning to release a new version of the iPhone. However, speculation is mounting on the web (check out our iPhone 5 rumour round-up for all you need to know) and with the recent loss of an Apple smartphone prototype in a bar in San Francisco, we can make an educated guess that it's coming, and hopefully sometime soon.
Another indicator that the iPhone 5 is on its way is the reduction of pay monthly iPhone tariffs from mobile networks. Compared to the time of the iPhone 4 launch, when Orange was offering the iPhone 4 for free on a £75 per month contract that came with unlimited calls and texts, the operator now has a deal available that will give Brits a free iPhone 4 along with 1,200 minutes of calls and unlimited texts and data for £45 per month.
Likewise, Vodafone was offering the 16GB Apple iPhone 4 for free on a two-year £60 per month contract with 3,000 minutes, unlimited texts, 1GB of data, 1GB of Wi-Fi access and 5MB of European data roaming per day. Now, the network is offering it for free on a £41 per month tariff with 900 minutes, unlimited texts and 750MB of data.
Similarly, at launch, O2 and T-Mobile were also both offering the 16GB iPhone 4 for free to Brits that opted for a £60 per month, two-year contract, but it's now available at no cost on a £42 per month contract and £40.85 tariff respectively.
The fifth of the UK's major mobile networks, 3 has also followed suit and reduced its iPhone tariff price. Originally, 3 customers could get their hands on a free 16GB iPhone 4 on the £45-per-month contract that included 2,000 minutes of calls of landlines and other mobile networks, 5,000 minutes of calls to other mobile users on the 3 network, 5,000 texts and a data allowance of 1GB. However, the price has now dropped by £5.
These are all certainly value for money deals, so should you take the plunge or hang on for the new handset?
NEXT PAGE: How the specifications of the iPhone 4 and iPhone 5 will differ
One of the questions I get asked most by friends, family and our readers is 'should I buy an iPhone now or wait until the next version comes out? We help you decide.
iPhone 5 specifications
Let's start by looking at the potential differences between the existing iPhone 4 and its successor the iPhone 5. Of course, once again because Apple has yet to confirm the device's existence, we can only base this comparison on rumours and speculation we've heard.
According to a source cited by Japanese website Macotakara the new iPhone will apparently use an ARM Cortex-A9 processor, though the report didn't state whether it would be a dual- or single-core chip (although an alternative rumour, however, points instead to a dual-core A5 chip). At present the iPhone 4 uses an Apple A4 chip.
Some are speculating the design will be largely similar to the iPhone 4, while MobileFun.co.uk published an image of what's thought to be a case for the iPhone 5 that it says came from a Chinese manufacturer. The drawing suggests the handset may have a very different look to the current iPhone 4. The computer generated images indicate the iPhone 5 will have a curved back, similar to that seen on the iPhone 3GS, along with a bigger, 4in edge-to-edge display (currently the iPhone 4 has a 3.5in display) that doesn't have a bezel. Meanwhile, Digitimes reckons the screen will be curved, in a style similar to that seen on the Google Nexus S
It's also thought the smartphone's camera will be boosted from 5Mp to 8Mp.
Buy and iPhone 4 or wait for the iPhone 5: Conclusion
It purely boils down to whether value for money or owning the latest piece of technology is your biggest priority. If items like the camera and the processor, which aren't as powerful as we'd like them to be on the current iteration of the device, are more important to you than having tonnes of minutes, texts and data, then you'll be better off waiting for Apple to release the next version of the iPhone.
However, if in these times of economic hardship, value for money is your primary concern (or like me you're a text and talkaholic) then opting for the current iPhone 4 on a tariff with plenty of minutes and texts is your best option as its likely that when the iPhone 5 is made available, it won't be available free on the same tariffs.
However, it's worth noting that while iPhone 4 users won't be able to benefit from the hardware upgrades seen on the iPhone 5, they will be able to upgrade their handsets to iOS5, the next version of the mobile platform, which the forthcoming version of the smartphone is expected to run. Among the new features iOS5 will include are new-look notifications and support for iCloud, Apple's function that allows users to store their music, photos, files and contacts online and then access them from their iPhone.
(Even if the Apple iPhone 5 has 4G connectivity, that won't affect UK users until we have 4G connectivity, and with the Ofcom 4G auction unlikely to happen until the middle of next year, that means we're unlikely to enjoy 4G much before 2013.)
Finally, we've a quick bit of advice for those that want an iPhone 5 but are still in contract when it launches? When the iPhone 4 was launched O2 ran an upgrade offer for a limited period that allowed customers still in contract to get their hands on the new iPhone. Instead of paying off the remaining contract in full, O2 let customers pay a one-off charge based upon a £20 per month fee for each full month left to run on the contract. The mobile network has yet to respond when we asked whether they would be running the offer with the iPhone 5, but if you're prepared to wait and see, it could work in your favour.

AFI Silver Theatre and Cultural Center or commonly known as AFI Silver is a three-screen movie theater complex in downtown Silver Spring, Maryland, just north of Washington, D.C. in the United States. It plays both art-house and mainstream movies. It is run by the American Film Institute.
The AFI Silver is the result of a restoration project for the original Silver Theatre in Silver Spring, which was designed by movie palace architect John Eberson and constructed in 1938.
The theater reopened in 2003. It features the ability to show 16mm, 35mm, DLP digital projection and 70mm vertical, HDCAM, Betacam, Betacam SP/SX, DigiBetacam, DVCAM, Mini DV, DVD, VHS, Blu-ray, D5, and DVCPRO all in state-of-the-art projectors.[citation needed]
The AFI Silver hosts the annual AFI Docs documentary festival (formerly known as Silverdocs) sponsored by various groups. http://www.afi.com/afidocs/sponsors.aspx#.U7hCt_ldXmc It also hosts the Washington, DC events of the annual 48 Hour Film Project, which was founded by Mark Ruppert in Washington.
Other notable annual film festivals which started at its original theater at the John F. Kennedy Center include the Latin American Film Festival during September - October (which began in 1989) and the European Union Film Festival in November (1987)

The Grateful Grill is a pop-up restaurant located in one of Antwerp's most recognizable landmarks: the Antwerp Tower. From May to October 2016, the entire building opens up its floors for creativity, before being completely overhauled to become a residential block.
I was asked to design a mural to decorate the former office space. Big thumbs up to the guys behind this project, be sure to visit the tower if you're in the neighbourhood, the view from the top is unbeatable.
Lifestyle store Juttu asked me to illustrate a quote for their magazine Juttugram. Each issue revolves around one theme, and this time it was 'The best is yet to come'. Love that thought.
The Abraaj Group Art Prize is one of the most significant art prizes in the Middle East, North Africa and South Asia, organized since 2008. Each year, artists are invited to submit proposals for a major new commission – a 'dream project', to be produced through a $100,000 award and then revealed as part of a group exhibition at Art Dubai. The exhibition also features work by three shortlisted artists.
I had the honour of designing the accompanying two-volume publication, dedicated to the work of the winners and runners-up.
Since the theme of the catalogue revolved around structures and meaning of language, this idea was extended to the design, revealing the structure of the book in terms of layout (grid) and binding. Volume two features a bilingual glossary printed on a bright yellow paper stock.

Some examples of my experiments with letters.
After selling homemade cupcakes from her vintage pink truck for a few years, Merel – who got nicknamed Mirlo while living in Spain – thought the time was right for the next step. In her dreamy little bar she offers customers a combination of great coffee, delicious food and some of her favourite interior goodies. Service is always with a smile at Mirlo's, and it's the perfect spot for an informal meeting, a brunch with friends or a little me-time.
I hand lettered a bespoke logo – painted on the windows by the magnificent Señor Color – and designed all collateral like menus, gift cards, flyers, business cards and stamps.
Hans Geyens – a.k.a. Señor Color – is a true contemporary sign painter. I have relied on his skills to make some very cool projects happen in the past.
When he ran out of handmade business cards he asked me to come up with new ones that would really fit him and his rather exotic style. So much fun.
'The Welfare State' is an exhibition with works by eight contemporary artists of different generations and visual materials from four Flemish archives, organised by
M HKA. The exhibition is both explicitly and implicitly socio-political, and raises topics of relevance to the current situation in the world.
The identity included, among other things, a logo in three language versions, a publication, invitation, poster, wall texts and advertisements in several international art magazines.
The pocket book-like publication serves as a guide to the exhibition, featuring essays on the participating artists and the welfare state itself.
Sidney makes very good sandwiches.

When Geelhand & Barbaix merged with Huber & Crommen to form a new law firm, they needed an update of their logo and a new website. Because each maintained their own specialty (tax law for Huber & Crommen, succession planning for Geelhand & Barbaix) they wanted this distinction reflected in their graphic identity and in the structure of the website. I gave each division a different shade of blue and when focussing on one, the other would fade to the background. Spot varnish was used to accomplish this on the business cards and separate domains on the website.

The Antwerp museum for contemporary art (M HKA) approached me to design a book to accompany their 2013 summer exhibition The Collection as a Character. It attempts to review their collection on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the museum. Curator Anders Kreuger and I came up with a catalogue that plays with reinterpreted 80s magazine aesthetics, while not giving in to nostalgia. Images play the leading part and construct an organic narrative throughout the book. It contains works of 200 key artists from 1958 to today, portraying an interesting collection that is the result of a quarter century of creative contingency.

Among locals, Antwerp is known as 'de Koekenstad', which literally translates as 'The City of Cookies'. The annual project Antwerpen Koekenstad tells the story of Antwerp's remarkably rich history in biscuit and chocolate manufacturing.
The 2015 edition highlighted the history of De Beukelaer Biscuits, once one of the world's largest manufacturers of chocolate and biscuits, that operated from Antwerp.
I designed a book, a tram, flags and banners, exhibition panels, brochures and leaflets, posters, vouchers, and other small brand collateral.
All illustrations made by Zhivko, a Bulgarian illustrator.
Thomas The Taco Guy Serros was born and raised in California, where soy sauce and hot sauce are as common as salt and pepper. Since he moved to Antwerp, bringing some of The Golden State's rich food heritage to Belgium is his mission. He plans to do this by selling home made tacos from his custom triciclo de carga: The Taco Bike.
I opted for a clean, contemporary visual style and kept the Mexican references sparse, to make the colourful food and drinks pop out.
The tagline is a funny heads up to the customers, so they know Thomas hasn't quite mastered the Dutch language yet.

An examination of how sites like The Session are meshing with older ideas of traditional Irish music:
There is a very interesting tension at play here – one that speaks directly to the design of new technologies. On the one hand, Irish musicians appear to be enthusiastically adopting digital media to establish a common repertoire of tunes, while on the other the actual performance of these tunes in a live session is governed by a strong etiquette that emphasizes the importance of playing by ear.

It's a real shame that Hannah and Matt are shutting down This Is My Jam—it's such a lovely little service—but their reliance on ever-changing third-party APIs sounds like no fun, and the way they're handling the shutdown is exemplary: the site is going into read-only mode, and of course all of your data is exportable.

Mark Prisk teams up with Church and defends bedroom tax
Published by Anonymous for 24dash.com in Housing and also in Central Government, Communities
Mark Prisk urges mortgage lenders to back revamped Right to Buy
Housing minister Mark Prisk last week joined with representatives from churches and housing organisations for the "Mobilising the Church" conference in Bradford.
The minister took the time to defend the government's bedroom tax, which came into effect on 1 April, during the event.
A growing number of churches are opening night shelters and other offering other support for people in need.
While the Bradford conference - which was organised by Housing Justice, the national voice of Christian action on housing and homelessness - was a celebration of the churches' role, high on the agenda for many delegates was the urgent need to address the causes of homelessness.
Prisk said: "I am very pleased to be with you today at this Housing Justice conference. Churches do vital work in responding to the needs in their communities, and homeless rough sleepers are amongst the most vulnerable."
The MP outlined the government's plans to improve housing supply, especially by encouraging more institutional investment. He also defended the controversial bedroom tax.
He said: "It makes no sense that there are one million spare bedrooms in social housing while there are more than two million people on housing waiting lists and a quarter of a million families living in seriously overcrowded accommodation."
He also called on delegates to follow the example of Churches Together and get involved in new communities being built across the country. He cited Cranbrook near Exeter as a prime example, where a Christian Minister is already there to help bring the new community together as new residents move in.
The conference marked the 10th anniversary of the launch of Housing Justice in 2003, founded by the merger of the Catholic Housing Aid Society and the Churches National Housing Coalition.
Over 80 people attended, representing churches, Christian charities and housing and homelessness organisations including Green Pastures, Emmaus, Hope into Housing, Quaker Housing Trust, Homeless Beanies, The Passage, Boaz Trust, Nightstop, St George's Crypt, Homeless Link, The Cardinal Hume Centre and many more.
Juli Thomson, of Bradford Inn Churches and Homeless Beanies, helped to organise the day. She said: "It was really encouraging to meet with so many Christians and others reaching out to the homeless. We have worked in partnership with Housing Justice since the launch of the Bradford Inn Churches Night Shelter in 2010, and this conference really helped to put our work into the national context."
Workshops included setting up a new night shelter; using church land and property for affordable housing, and working in partnership to house homeless people in the private rented sector.
Housing Justice chief executive Alison Gelder said: "Churches have always been in the business of helping people in need. This 10th anniversary conference brought together our national network of friends and colleagues to look at ways we can meet the challenge of homelessness and housing need. Housing Justice will continue to speak up for those who are most vulnerable and excluded in society."

CALABASH—As the state's smoking ban went into effect at restaurants and bars Jan. 2, smokers and non-smokers alike debated the impact.
At Granny Allyns Country Kitchen on Thomasboro Road this week, the effect hasn't been that dramatic because the eatery went smoke-free six months ago, said Mateus Buchanan, daughter of restaurant owner Brenda Dixon.
Prior to the restaurant implementing a no-smoking rule July 1, some people couldn't dine there, Buchanan said.
A lot of customers, she said, couldn't be around smoking for medical reasons.
SHALLOTTE—The county is continuing with plans to use a refurbished gas chamber to euthanize animals that can't be safely handled, Brunswick County Health Director Don Yousey said Tuesday.
Yousey, along with county environmental health director David Stanley and shelter director David Swain, met informally at a local restaurant with a group of residents concerned about animal welfare issues.
It's year two of the AVID program at West Brunswick High School, and teachers and students say they can see its benefits.

Hi _____,Welcome to Nikonians!Both cards will work well in the D5200.If you fill the buffer, the 95MB/sec. Card will clear the buffer a little faster allowing you to capture a few more images per unit time compared to the 45MB/sec. Card.BTW:When you get a few minutes please fill in your Real name in your User Profile.We always encourage our members to fill in their real first and last names, and have made that issue a part of our Terms of Use.The intent is to foster a community of "real people" instead of mysterious web personalities with anonymous screen names.

If you take a picture and then take another picture and then take anotther picture and so on, I doubt you would notice a difference. However, if you find youself using the continuous fire mode, you'll find after about 8 or 10 shots, the camera will slow down while the buffer is cleared. I that case, the 95 might allow you to fire a longer string before it slows down.

In Cl mode at 3 FPS, the Extreme Pro will allow you to shoot raw pretty much indefinitely. The Extreme will slow down to about 1 FPS after 7 exposures.In Ch mode, you will fill the buffer in about 8 exposures, then continue at about 3 FPS, using an Extreme Pro card. With a regular extreme, you will fill the buffer in 7 exposures, and the the camera will slow down to 1 FPS.

If you are not going to rattle off long bursts, a UHS-I class 10 card with 30-45 Mb/s write speeds will be very affordable, like $1 per GB.

I have several of the Sandisk Extreme cards in 30mb/s and 45mb/s flavors. I have no problem shooting bursts of 5-6 images on either type of card on a D5100. I haven't really tested it beyond that, but I'd say you probably don't need to pay for the 95mb/s unless you plan on taking dozens of continuous photos without pausing.I've had no problems shooting 1080i/p video either on those cards.------------------------------Nikon D5100AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-300mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VRAF-S DX NIKKOR 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5G EDAF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8GSB-700 AF Speedlight

Chelsea have (as usual) splashed the cash over the transfer window this summer.
They've already signed Atletico Madrid pair Diego Costa and Filipe Lius along with former Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas.
Atletico Madrid loanee goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois also returns to Stamford Bridge, which has Jose Mourinho's men seemingly ready for the new season.
Yet they are still being linked with big moves for several players, which the Blues will do well to avoid purchasing before the end of the month.
So, with that in mind, here are SIX PANIC BUYS Chelsea should avoid this summer.

I developed the original "Contact Form 7 reCAPTCHA Extension" you copied.
It would have been nice of you if you have asked for a feature or send a message with a bug report. At least you could use your own names for variables, classes, own texts and own pictures in your description of the plugin. Your behavior shows me that you have no idea how to write proper php code or good wordpress plugins. It would also have been nice if you have mentioned the source of all the things you have copied.
I really am open for critics, hints and feature requests. But what you have done is not nice.
Kind regards

Board-certification of nurses plays an increasingly important role in the assurance of high standards of care for patients and their loved ones.

Pardee Hospital encourages national board-certification for nurses. There are many nursing certification specialties such as medical-surgical, pediatric, perioperative, gerontology, oncology, research, obstetrics, case management, emergency nursing, critical care and many others.
Please join Pardee Hospital and the nation's national nursing certification organizations in honoring those hardworking, dedicated nurses for their professionalism and a job well done.
Pardee Hospital is a not-for-profit community hospital founded in 1953 and is managed by UNC Health Care. The hospital is licensed for 222 acute care beds.

SYDNEY (AP) - Six National Rugby League clubs have met with the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Agency for briefings in the wake of last week's damning crime commission report that indicated widespread use of performance enhancing substances in professional sport and links between users and organised crime.
The Australian Crime Commission released the findings of a year-long investigation last Thursday, without releasing the names of clubs or individuals under investigation, triggering concern across the country and descriptions of it being the bleakest day ever for Australian sport.
The primary targets of the report were the NRL and the Aussie rules Australian Football League.
Penrith, Manly, Cronulla, Newcastle, North Queensland and Canberra, the six NRL clubs mentioned in the ACC report, attended a group meeting and individual briefings with Asada in Sydney on Tuesday.

Skip to comments.FReep this Poll (Catholics and Yeah, Come On, Everybody Else)
Posted on 11/22/2008 4:56:25 PM PST by Mrs. Don-o
Catholics and, for the love of God, everybody else, please FReep this poll.
Catholics United is the front group that organized Catholics for Obama. The organizers, Chris Korzen and James Salt, are veterans of Catholics for Kerry, and literally never saw a pro-abort Catholic they didn't try to paint haloes and auras around.
They make very clever use of Catholic symbols, documents and God-talk to promote their Kmiec-style deviationism.
In this poll I'm asking you to FReep, they want feedback on what their lobbying priorities ought to be. Check "common-ground ways to reduce abortions." What they mean by that? Who knows? But I'd like them to be challenged to make that their far-and-away highest priority. Let's try to get it stratospherically high. Just to see.
Done! Good luck with this. These people are just awful. They don't follow the teachings of the Church.
Ping-a-ling. You might also want to join them in order to comment on their blog, if you can stand it. (I have a hard time controlling my anger, but I guess sometimes that's what one has to do.)
Ping to check out later
Good grief! What choices! The only thing the Catholic Church (my church) should be preaching about from that list is anti-abortion. At least IMHO!
done, good heads-up.
Yeah, even their "anti-abortion" line isn't. "common ground abortion reduction" is a code word for keeping abortion legal and pretending that you hope that the number of abortions goes down.
Will do.
I voted: even if some of these issues are pending, Good Gosh! Health Care over the Rights of the Unborn and really, as I read someone say in a blog, the unborn to be shredded and vacuumed out, excuse me, these people who vote for some of these other issues just have dark dark souls themselves and should examine if they are Catholics and their consciences I say in a non-judgmental way. Let them
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of interest.
Obama Says A Baby Is A Punishment
Obama: If they make a mistake, I dont want them punished with a baby.
Survey Results
If it doesn't let you vote more than once just empty your temporary internet files or cache and you can vote all night.
2 in
Over the top! Check the votes.
It may be that these people would include abortion as part of their idea of health care. So they are contradictory as well.
They woke up today as a new ProLife group. lol
I voted. I don't think it will do any good but I voted!
For the sake of the Cyber-Klutzes among us (myself first and foremost) please post and tell us how to do that.
Ping Promiscuously.
In front of all these people!?!
Okay, I voted - even though everything in their "common ground abortion reduction initiatives" plan is probably immoral, proven ineffective, or both.
Yeah, I know their "common ground" thing probably means condomizing the boys and hormally neutering the girls, or some damned thing. But I want them to think "What next? Do they expect us to fight FOCA?"
And I want them to know the prolifers are watching them.
As I am. With my flaming Sauron eye.
Promoting homosexuality is a "commonsense" way to reduce abortion, too ... can't make a baby without one of each sex!
Anyway, a round of applause to you for your vigilance, and I'd better go get dressed before someone sees me in this holey nightgown :-).
From their MySpace Page, just so everyone knows...
Catholics United Responds to Allegations Made by Denver Archbishop Charles Chaput
Catholics United executive director Chris Korzen issued the following statement today in response to Denver Archbishop Charles Chaputs accusation that Catholics United has done a disservice to the Church, confused the natural priorities of Catholic social teaching, undermined the progress pro-lifers have made, and provided an excuse for some Catholics to abandon the abortion issue instead of fighting within their parties and at the ballot box to protect the unborn. The archbishops comments were delivered at an Educating on the Nature and Dignity of Women dinner in Denver on October 17, 2008.
Catholics United welcomes an open, honest, and productive dialogue about how best to represent the values of the our faith in public life. We recognize that Catholics can differ in good conscience about which policies will achieve the most effective results, even on issues as important as abortion. We are concerned that Archbishop Chaputs comments even those made in his personal capacity will have a chilling effect on this dialogue. It is also profoundly unfortunate that Archbishop Chaput has chosen to make personal attacks on lay Catholics acting in good faith to promote Catholic values in the public square.
During the past eight years we have watched a president rise to power on a pro-life platform only to pursue other priorities: perpetrating an unjust war, opposing expanded health care coverage for pregnant women and children, promoting the intrinsic evil of torture, deregulating the financial markets, and mortgaging the future of Americas hard-working families on tax cuts for the rich and powerful. Scant, if any, progress was made toward ending or reducing abortions quite the contrary, we fear that the looming economic crisis will impel more women to have abortions as people lose their jobs and their homes. This experience serves as poignant reminder of the need for Catholics and other pro-life Americans to look beyond campaign rhetoric and elect candidates who will deliver real results on the issues that matter most.
With due respect to Archbishop Chaput, we believe that by pursuing efforts to de-polarize the abortion debate and bring Americans of varying ideological backgrounds to the table to find common ground solutions, organizations like Catholics United are doing at least as much to promote Church teaching on human life as those who have insisted on the same ineffective strategies of the past 35 years.
"Catholics United welcomes an open, honest, and productive dialogue about how best to represent the values of the our faith in public life."
The guy doesn't seem to get the fact that the Church is not a democracy.
They went thru and changed the voting results. Stripping out the newly minted ant-abortion vote.
They went thru and changed the voting results. Stripping out the newly minted ant-abortion vote.
They wouldn't be trying to skew the results in any way, would they? Surely not.
There are fewer anti-abortion votes now then there were when I FReeped it the other day...
They woke up today as a new ProLife group.It looks like they've managed to convince themselves it was all just a dream.

Never overpay. Check prices with our estimator
Our experts translate recalls into plain English
Hyundai Veracruz ProblemsPCM software update to correct hard start or rough idle when cold
A hard start or rough idle when cold may be noted. Our technicians tell us a powertrain control module software update is available to correct this concern.
Excessive engine noise may be noted after a cold start. If the engine oil level is correct this type of noise is commonly caused by faulty timing chain tensioners. Our technicians tell us that revised chain tensioners are available to correct this issue.
A hesitation on acceleration may be noted when the engine is warm. The Check Engine Light may or may not illuminate. The is commonly caused by a faulty oxygen (O2) sensor. An undated oxygen sensor is available to correct this issue.
Hyundai Veracruz QuestionsSince there is no dipstick, how can one check and change the transmission fluid in a Veracruz? (1 answer)
after I hit another car, my horn stopped working
Hyundai Veracruz RecallsPotential Charging System Fault
An engine oil leak from the front valve cover gasket could result in enough oil leaking onto the alternator to cause its failure. An alternator failure will cause the charging system warning light to illuminate. Driving the vehicle in this condition for a unknown period of time will result in the engine stalling, increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will inspect and repair or replace the alternator and front valve cover gasket as necessary to correct this concern.
The affected vehicles are being recalled because the brake light switch can fail prematurely, resulting in the loss of brake light operation. Other systems that may be affected include: cruise control, push-button start, gear shifter, and Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system. Dealers will replace the brake light switch to correct this concern.
The clock spring electrical contact for the driver's airbag may become damaged through normal usage over time. The electrical circuit will experience a high resistance condition and in the event of a crash, the driver's airbag will not deploy, increasing the risk of personal injury. Dealers will replace the contact assembly as necessary to correct this condition. The Hyundai recall number is 103.

But later that day I got a call from OneStopMortors.com explaining me the benefits of listing the car with them. They assured me that they will get my car sold soon with the different options they have for buyers. They said that they list the car in various websites and search engines to generate lot of interest for the car. We discussed the bottom line price for the car too on the call.
I wanted to get 25K for the car, so they recommended me to list it for 26K. The stressed again that I will thankful that I was able to even get my $500 paid to them this way. During the whole conversation it was never mentioned that or did they tell me that they are just and advertising agency and there will be chance that no one will respond to the ad. The whole time I was on the phone (30 Min or so) they were very positive that I sign and the car will be sold within weeks.
So I paid them and waited for the flow of interested parties to come thru OneStopMotors. But even after one month passed I did not get a single lead or phone call from them. When I called to inquire they told me wait for few more weeks. But I started to get the feeling that this is how they are treating all their clients because they were giving me the run around from one person to another. They have been extremely difficult to talk to because I was asking for a refund for poor service.
Finally, they put me to talk to their Customer service manager Will ( who is no longer working there now) and he told me that he will try to get be a partial refund as I wanted to cancel. They were also not allowing me to talk to the Sales person who signed me up the first place.
Again I waited for few more weeks to see if they will call me back or not. But nothing happened for two weeks even thought they told me that they will call me back. It been months since then and no response from them, other than that they dont issue refund.
I was completely misrepresented by the sales person on their service promise and was not happy right after the first month.
I am locked in with the high payment made to them. I have even tried reducing the price on the car. But the important thing is that there service is not good at all and doesnt do what they promise.

Traversing landscapes and expediting travel, railroads have allowed us to conquer once elusive frontiers to improve both transportation and commerce. Railroad design has changed remarkably little in the years since the invention of the steam engine, yet trains remain a prevalent form of transport and the railways. The bridges that have been developed to support them continue to be a vital part of infrastructures in countries around the world. This engaging volume examines the evolution of railways, railcars, and bridges, as well as the lives of pioneers and tycoons in the railroad business.

I agreed to this contact when I was told that traveling by then was not a problem; that my contract would be here in about a week, and that the flights would be connected to a hotel deal.
When no contract had arrived by December 29th, I went to CheapTrips web site and called the number listed there. I explained that my contract had never come, maybe wasn't coming, and the reason I needed the free tickets so soon.
The salesman seemed sincere as we discussed my family's situation. My nephew is returning from the war in Afghanistan. He wants his family there when he gets to come home.
Honolulu is an expensive trip, and they needed help with the costs. The tickets were to be that help. After he confirmed January would not be a problem, and even told me how to begin planning the trip on line as a temporary user,I signed up-again
The 1st contract arrived today. I read about the 60 days advance trip notice, and wanted to cry. They all lied to me so I would sign up. I wanted so much to help my sister, and thanks to CheapTrips, I hurt her instead.
They knew flight costs would go up while we waited for those free tickets they knew we couldn't use for two months. Bait and switch is a mean spirited, easy way to steal.

Instead of ordering me a new engine they transported my cay to a junk car yard where they told the yard to put a used engine out of another car into my car. after about a week of riding the bus I was called to pick up my car at the car lot and when I fot there I was told that I got a new engine and I would not be having anymore problems but I do. The service engine light pops on and the cold/hot meter keeps rising high.
I had to take my car back to JD Byrider 2 times and the problem isn't or hasn't been solved yet and I do not feel safe with this car and I was told that in order for me to get another car I had to pay the loan off upto $2000.00 and the loan is for $9465.00 pay off. I feel that I was suckered into this loan by not only JD Byrider but as well as the fast talking CNAC reps.
