If you want the perfect technical experience then you should use the original hardware. For a android emulation device with physical controls I can't fault t...

Re: Anyone remember "Manta Force"?
I've just acquired my large manta force collection from my fathers loft. Years of sitting their being neglected, it's still in perfect condition. It's now got a very new proud owner, my four year old son. He loves it more than any other toy. Toys like this really inspire imaginations.

Re: Jim'll Fix It
He came to see my brother a couple of times around November up in St James hospital in Leeds. My little brother suffered massive head/brain injuries after a senseless attack in a Wakefield nightclub. Sir Jimmy is such a wonderful bloke who always puts others first. His visit touched us all.
