I couldn't agree more but there is a minor problem...
Searching for PXO got me this.. "Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms." . Also on the Wiki(FAQ)-tab there is no info... Is it possible for some senoir-members to put a lot of info in the Wiki(FAQ)?
It would help a lot if the wiki had most info in a Renoir-page..

Hmm I didn't even notice the Wiki tab :P
I don't really see a point in someone adding to the wiki when all the available information can pretty much be found within the forum. But if someone wants to they can

I agree with Gavin that some questions are getting annoying, sometimes it's just clear that the person was just too lazy to search etc.
But I agree with TcaS about the Search function; unless I'm blind&stupid (both possible ) the search function of this great forum utterly sucks. It's only searching for keywords and tags, that had to be given before by the person who posted the thread or message.
BUT
THERE
IS
A
SOLUTION:

Go to google.com and enter in the search field:
site:mygreatphone.com/forum/lg-renoir/
and then your searchterm, e.g. PXO
compleet:
site:mygreatphone.com/forum/lg-renoir/ PXO
I tried: 137 matches!!
