Thanks for the reply - I don't need the extra water tank so I ordered the V5

What is the difference between the V5 and the V5S besides white vs. rose colour?

"I like big bezels and I cannot lie" - seriously - I wish journos would concentrate on other something else rather than the thickness of the bezel. I don't buy a device just to look at it and go "ooh, ah, slim bezels." Rather I need to hold the device in multiple orientations without worrying about tapping the screen by mistake. Thick bezels are perfectly fine with me if it makes it easier to use.

I have one of these (the Pro). Works pretty well but I'm no Android expert. I had to kill all the background apps to have increase performance, once I did that I can run Skype etc just fine. Battery life seems a bit low but I'm used to iOS devices so maybe not a direct comparison.

Well, as far as creature comforts go, most of the festivals I've been
to recently allow motorhomes (or 'motorcaravans' as they are called
over here. In addition, if you plan ahead one can usually find
accommodation near a festival in hotels or B&Bs.

As for sitting on blankets, again, the festivals I've been to
recently don't mind people using folding chairs, however, when it
gets dark and the bands get a little louder, people become more
lubricated it usually ends up being a standing affair.

Here is an example crowd shot that shows how this works, as you'll
see people also use the small "lean to" fisherman's shelters for sun/
rain protection: http://www.flickr.com/photo...

As for being a 'music hound' here is a link to a book my Dad was
involved (as an editor) which is a great resource for learning about
folk music:

Hadar, as you know I've only been reading the blog for a month or so and I enjoy it very much. I had no idea you were such a music hound! What are your thoughts on multi-day festivals, such as Kerrville or one of the UK folk festivals such as Cambridge or Sidmouth? I'm seriously considering Sidmouth this year, it would be great to see some shows together!
