Guest deadphill Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 I would use it if I could guarantee I had enough battery power to download and then subsequently use whatever it was I downloaded. However, when I might need a file at work it will help as anything with torrent in it is firewalled. Im interested to know if they are or could become plus partners?
