Sick of waiting for my work to buy a volume licence, but seeing as it's a nicety and not a need to have, I might as well do the same.

Whilst that may seem like intellegent design, you'll notice that you can't see the current date anywhere on that screen without making assumptions. This screen would make me feel uneasy and over-analyse the options. (Does it mean yesterday

How is it a calibration error? He clearly says he tested for calibration error, and it wasn't the case. This is of course, we assume he's not lying.

Take a quick look at ICS/JB on Android, which has already solved this problem. The current state is written on the sliding bit, clicking anywhere will toggle it, but correctly show the current state. The slider will also glow blue if it is

Indeed, slightly more practical than a dongle, however it doesn't support NDEF and other cool NFC actions. Android handles NFC so well!

Is it just me or is a bounty just more likely to deter people from trying to give a worthwhile response? I can see it turning to the point where the answers will degrade in quality as more and more people join the site in an attempt to make
