I am sorry but the translation just didn't work for me. Perhaps it was the time of night or perhaps the translator you used just did not work correctly. Whatever it was I struggled on a lot of occasions. Sorry I can see you put a lot of hard work into the op! Regards Wayne

Some good info here Andrea, but some of the English made this a tad difficult to read, hence my (ever so stingy!) rating! Cheers, Phil :O)
Advantages: Free Pulse Beats, exclusive monthly competitions to win amazing prizes, efficient and friendly customer service Disadvantages: APR could be more competitive
