    Except Amazon staff who are being paid low wages in extraordinarily poor conditions of service - German workers are on strike over this.

    Perhaps poor Winchester scholar / Ies:Coll:Cantab graduate James had a hand in it... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/ar...e-job-get.html

    And I assumed that the railways were involved - don't the post office use trains anymore? Blame Bruce Reynolds and friends perhaps...

      Amazon staff aren't paid low wages in poor conditions. They are paid above the rate that other German companies pay for similar work

      Rock-on Amazon de !!!!!!!!!!!!!

          You have railway right up to the doors of Caliban Parva?

          You shop where you like Cali - it's Oxo who's singing the praises of entrepreneurial capitalism (as opposed to the other sort, I guess )

                  Only since 1854... Paddington Station. I would hope they come on foot from the sorting office there to here. Call me old-fashioned.

                    Never mind all that, have you set the damn contraption up yet? Does it work? Should I get one? What are the pros and cons? What does Mrs Caliban think? Stop wasting time.

                                It certainly is. My unit (surprisingly small - like a somewhat oversized Rennie) is all plugged in and I have solved - with your help - the conundrum in the heading to this thread

                                But...

                                ... there is another conundrum now.

                                To play music from my computer to the hifi I have to join the 'Airport Express' network I created to enable the unit and my computer to 'talk'.

                                But that appears to mean that I have to disconnect from my WiFi network

                                I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. Can I not do both at the same time?

                                I'm disappointed, because it had struck me that I could use the APE to listen to internet radio via iTunes. But not at the moment...
