I haven't used Spotify in a little while

But you can definitely use it without connecting it to Facebook. FB integration is more of an additional extra rather than a core part of the software.

Can't log in - silly login behaviour

So I registered on F1.com, but the app (a) forces the password characters to be entered in upper-case, and (b) shows the characters.

Also appears that the app won't let you enter numbers as part of the password either. Unless something is really odd with my Android keyboard (SlideIT)

T-shirt - like this one?

It doesn't though, does it?

I have a PS3, and even though it *can* play a ton of formats, the interface is awful and is very slow. I have a lot of music and a lot of photos, and the PS3 struggles to cope. And drilling down to a particular photo album is a right pain.

It also doesn't aggregate web video like Boxee does. It also consumes a LOT more power.

The only thing I don't like about the Boxee Box is its price. Once again the UK consumer gets hammered - in the US it's $200. Here, it costs the equivalent of 60% more.

My brother's just ordered one of these in the States. If it's good, I'm getting one.

Why is this news?

There's nothing special about this drive at all. It's smaller than a lot of drives, but nowhere near as small as the smallest (I've had my Pico-USB drive for nearly 2 years now). And there's nothing ground breaking in terms of storage either.

The title of the article should be 'Sandisk launches totally uninteresting USB drive'. Slow news day?
