I ordered a 64 GB Space Grey iPhone SE today. With demand exceeding supply at present, it's going to be four weeks before I can pick it up. Apple have offered me $75 for the iPhone 4s, I'll put that towards the cost of a Lifeproof case. The 4s has one chip out of one corner from the one day when I didn't have it in a case.

Well done.

Plus, the ext HD needed ext power, which the CF reader doesn't.

Takes a bit longer to boot up than it did when working from the ext FW HD, but once it's working, things happen a bit quicker.This is with a 333x CF card. I experimented with a 50x card using OS 9.2.2 (to proved the concept) before getting the 32 GB CF card.

No, not very fast at all. I cloned a 7 GB 10.4.11 install from a PATA ext HD to a CompactFlash card recently. The interface at least, was FireWire 400 on both the source & the destination devices, though. This was to get the G3 Pismo working from an ext FW-to-CF card reader. I wasn't silly enough to try doing that on the Pismo itself, the 2.3 GHz dual-core G5 PowerMac got that job.

I was getting double-vision when trying to read after watching YouTube videos on the iPod Touch for about 90 minutes. Text close-up with the reading glasses was difficult to read and my distance vision wasn't fantastic either. That was a bit of a worry, it's only been 12 months since my right eye had its cataract removed. That eye is supposed to have 20/20 vision, it was a long way from being that good.

So I went to bed in a darkened room for 45 minutes & now my vision is back to normal.

Phew.

@japchap 600 or 60?

I have a Pismo G3 PowerBook with a faulty HD interface. It boots fine from a 32 GB 333x CompactFlash card (essentially an SSD) via a FireWire 400 CF card reader. The max OS it can use is 10.4.11. Testing shows it boots up faster from an external FW HD but when actually running, the CF card is a lot snappier.
