I have a Epson l565 ink tank at the office. On Monday did some head cleaning and saw on the printout that in 2 years we had printed 14000 pages. I would guess that about 20% of that was full colour pages. We have only needed to buy new ink bottles once in this period.

I just love my Epson Ink tank. Had it about 8 months now. The ink is also dirt cheap. Currently on my first rebuy of black (you get two black bottles and one of each colour in the box)

I grabbed one of these, and it seems the printer I received is definitely not brand new. All the little stickers and seals have been removed, and there are some tiny marks on the front of the printer although the samsung software does seem to report a 100% full toner cartridge. Anyone else?

That seems to be an issue with CNA lately, my son got a R150 voucher for there, we cannot find anything at that price in the toy range and if we do the box is ripped and things are missing. He got himself a little firemans set one time was missing parts sigh.

Gotten quite a bit of stuff from them as I've got a bigger house and needed to fill it. So far only one of the bookshelves was a bit eh, everything else was fine. The office chair I got was better quality then the equivalent Game/Makro ones and at a cheaper price. It's almost at the quality of the office chairs we've got in the office at a third of the price.

You save your battery on your phone, hotspot kills the battery pretty quickly.

Nice to have in the car.

My battery is bulging and soft, device is 2 years old and spent plenty of times in my back pocket or on the charger over the weekends. Thinking to shop around lunch time and find a Nokia BL-5C battery. I am sure I read in these forums that it was compatible to e5770. Otherwise ... Loot.

Edit it is not.

Trying to think of a reason to buy this. I already have a spare phone that can be used as a hotspot.

Yeah I'm in the same boat. I guess if you don't spend much time in the car or away from wifi it doesn't really make sense. For me, having some extra data on my tablet which I can hotspot to (which I do maybe once a month) is more than sufficient and don't have to carry an additional device.

If no-one caught this special, well bad luck :p Although Gtx Gaming is slightly more expensive, maybe taken 15% vat into consideration ?

Does the E5577 turn off by itself when idle? I need one that doesn't have an auto-off feature so as to use it as a permanent WiFi hotspot

Typically it will shut off when no WiFi clients are connected to preserve battery. If you have always connected devices it should keep running

Yes, in the configuration you can tell it to idle. But not shut down I think. I did about 4 hours without charging and using 2 devices. It only dropped down to 50 %
