Come on sucker lick my battery

Great if you want to watch coloured hexagonals, can't imagine it being that great for actual TV...

Thanks for the support Josh.

giuliop; I suggest you read more about the LHC before making wild coments like you have. Brain washed? Thats a pretty stupid statement, but maybe I'm being paid by CERN to say that and it's all part of a wider conspiracy to destroy the Earth...

Or not. As for not starting it yet, Josh pointed out they already have, but a loose solder conection caused unusually high resistance, leading to the liquid helium coolant expanding and then rupturing a super-conducting magnet. This resulted in a destroyed magnet and displaced several of the magnets linked to it. Trying to fix, align and test this is going to take ages so it's unsurprising it has been delayed again. I can't think of one science project that hasn't encountered problems at some point and with the size and complexity of the LHC it will be years before it can be used to its full potential.

There is a chance that the LHC could produce blackholes, but they would be so small that they would disappear nanoseconds after being created. There's also a chance that one could be created that could grow and destroy the world, but there's also a chance I could cross a road and end up on Mars. There is a far more likely chance that it will change the way we understand physics and lead to new technologies, but unless they try how will we know?

I can only reccomend that you pay a visit to CERN - it's a truly fascinating place and the amount of work that has gone in to making it happen is astonishing. It's just a shame that it is well known for the wrong reasons.

There is NOTHING to worry about - the particle collisions that are created within the LHC occur frequently in nature too - even within Earth's atmosphere. All the hype about a 'black hole machine' is just some so called scientists manipulating the media to get their 5 minutes, and of course the media love scaring people with apocalyptic stories.

A few people from my uni won a trip to visit the LHC last week, which I went on - our physics department wrote a newsletter article titled "students win trip to visit black hole machine"... you would have thought they of all people would know better, but it just shows how the media can twist people's views.

That picture is a proven fake:

Hey Engadget - this is proven fake, why haven't you updated the post yet? Whilst it is a photoshop, I doubt the actual phone will differ much...

Interesting... I don't suppose you (or anyone else) could recommend a website where I could learn to manipulate the exploit you are refering to? ;)

Not quite John - we just watched a video of some people watching a video of filming people filming a video clip of a film...

Jeez just let them rip it already!

No, I think the one YOU are thinking about FAILED

It's clearly a rip off of the iPhone!
