TrevaUK Right now I have 25 pounds (about 50USD) in cash and a debit card, and a Cellphone top up card, and some business cards. So Wouldn't be a major loss just a major inconvenience having to renew my cards.

TrevaUK The 'Mute' Button is perfect for commercials, because it silences those annoying ads, and when your program comes back on, simply 'Unmute' it and the sound comes back at the same volume it was previously.
