Hi, I had a go at putting a new shell on my son's ds lite because of a broken hinge.
It was quite straight forward but you have to watch out for the ribbon cables. I damaged mine when doing it so I lost sound and then after a few months it died completely. If I could do it again I would be quite sure that I could pull it off though.

There was a decent video on youtube about it, I will have a look and post if I find it.

Episode number two is among us...



It's the Teletextr Podcast: The World at Your Fingertips! Carl and Harry are back to discuss teletext at art galleries, physical and analogue, in 2015 for our Teletext Art Special. There's also some juicy discussion on teletext porno, such as it is, teletext's ongoing fight against the evil lizards and the world's first teletext song... perhaps.

With pages recovered from VHS by Jason Robertson, plus some frames from Teletext40.com. Sorry these aren't directly related to the audio this time round, but it would have taken me two weeks to edit... :D

Guys, Thanks for the kind words, @zapiy  is right about our deliberate demarcation of seasons, Keith and Dan put lots of effort into RVG.

We enjoyed making this and I have some recordings to make for the next one now!
Also we welcome contributions no matter what they are as RVG is an eclectic mix of many people that share the same interests.

Thanks to @Greyfox  and @harryyack for the art work, it has been a true team effort. :41:
