Cheers Tom.... but you see where I'm coming from. Read back through the thread and a few others. Enough B/S to fill a silage machine. At times like this we need solid info not bull or rumour. Too many half wits around posting rubbish for one reason or another. Like most people I'm just waiting for the damned thing to come back on.

At this stage I'd just assume its never coming back. I also find it pretty weird that 1.04 doesn't have the net application option. I can't see how it connects to web without it
