I've had to do the same this summer in the UK. It's the first time we've had weather hot enough to trigger a problem, but it has been CRAWLING. :(

I do fear that cars are going to have the opposite problem to phones... Where Apple sacrifices battery life for unnecessary thin-ness, I fear car companies will sacrifice it for unnecessary speed and size.

Edit: and who knows what'll happen if Apple gets into the electric car business!

Oh, you didn't ask for it to be thinner?

Do you never worry about missing a family emergency call? Like an accident or death or similar?

I don't accept general calls overnight, but I'd hate to miss the call.

The other comments don't mention this, but it's also a new UK bank. They're going through the official approval process right now to be able to offer current accounts, overdrafts and so on.

Presumably this tool is not for Windows sysadmins, it's for Linux/Unix sysadmins who also have to manage some Windows machines...

We did this - Cancelled Sky in favour of Netflix + Now TV's Entertainment bundle.

Not looked back, despite the many, many calls from Sky.
