We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

    3g PCI Modems

    Cool. We moved to Brazil a few years ago, and we needed a way to keep the weight of our carry-on baggage down, maintain our UK telephone number and reuse our UK plugged B&O phone and this was ideal.

    2 character search strings (eg 3g)

    3g has got to be one of the most popular search strings at the moment, but the search doesn't allow 2 character strings. I can use google to get round this, but is that ideal. In the meantime, I should add I really like the popup search facility. Regards Steve
