But isn't your pay pro-rata? In the UK (unless it has changed, which I doubt) then they get a pro-rata wage, so yes they still get paid in those months even though they aren't working but the money they are getting paid in those months is taken from the pay cheques across the other months to make it all balance out.

So really they aren't getting paid for those months as they don't work them.

The discord community is where I was getting all my information from. I'm sure it has moved on a bit now as this was a few years ago and whilst I do still have the phone I'll probably wait to get the new one and then I'll play around.

Ive been running graphene the last 3 years now and I don't want to go back to google so once I get the titan 2 I'm going to try my best to get some form of Linux going on it. I fucking hate this touchscreen though so I can't wait!

I know there were a few custom ROMs that took advantage of some of the blackberry apps n such for the original Titan series of phones but j could never get the boot loader to unlock on my original titan so I was always stuck with what they supplied which was fairly lacklustre and was what ultimately pushed me away from the phone.

I agree. I realise it is a niche market, keyboard phones, but there are still people out there that want them and they seem to be hooking into that market.

Their software isnt the best but I'm hoping in time it will become more refined along with the keyboards getting better with each iteration. BlackBerry had a lot more practice by the time of the passport and key devices so here's hoping at least one company will fill that gap left behind.

Couldn't agree more with Skyrim, Oblivion was the same when I tried that too I just can't stand it. Easily some of the most over rated games IMO.

Also agree with Zelda but I think the same about all of the Nintendo IPs, they are just boring and the fan base makes me dislike them even more!

Same, I replaced the screen 3 times and the battery once before my keytwo finally gave in and I had to admit defeat.

There is no titan slim 2 yet, just the regular titan which is like a BB passport in form factor but chunkier, I'm just speculating that if they are continuing the line hopefully there will be a new slim in the future.

The few pre release reviews I have watched regarding the titan 2 say that the it is snappy and nice to use with a considerable improvement over the old one but it is still a $300 phone so it isnt going to be top of the range power able to run all the most taxing games. Really though the kinds of people this phone is aimed at aren't the type to be as worried about that and with a 1:1 ratio screen a lot of games and such would probably be painful to play.

I suggest you check out a couple of videos if you are interested because I don't really know the in depth details because I don't really care about the processor etc as long as it runs the phone at an acceptable rate, I'm in it for the keyboard :D

I know it isnt the same form factor but the Titan 2 is coming soon with pre-production units being sent out to people already and estimated release in October.

I had the original titan and will probably get this to try it out but that also means a Titan Slim 2 is a possibility at some point. The key2 that the slim copies is the best phone I ever owned I think!

Are you happy with your results though? Seems like a decent improvement to me!

Also how did you feel with the bars up the correct way? Any better there?

MaM is the absolute best for audiobooks IMO. Always have what I want, a friendly and helpful community and from what I hear the most forgiving private tracker around.

Not really. Going down stairs you shouldn't have much weight over the front and the suspension won't be doing that much work until you get to the bottom where it will compress as you hit the flat. If anything if you went too soft you could hit the bottom of the stair set and bottom out the forks which opens up another can of worms.

If the suspension is working fine for you right now I'd leave it as it is.
