Sony product cycle?

I've been thinking the same thing --- decided last week I wanted to get a secondary more pocketable camera for my travels and the RX100 looks amazing but I'd have buyer's remorse if an updated version came out. Obviously the OP asked in April and its mid-June now ... My guess is that if there's...

Recommendation for replacement RAM? (mid-2007 15" MBP)

I have a 15" MacBook Pro purchased in August 2007; it was the current model at the time. I have 2GB of RAM in it but I've finally started to feel some lag. Going into activity monitor, I've seen that I'm constantly using close to 2GB of RAM at a time and feel that an upgrade to 4GB is in store...

MacBook Pro in Europe

I'd rather not have to deal with carrying it around wherever I go, though. I'd rather just have an adapter directly for the MBP. I'm going to be traveling a lot within the cities and don't want to have to carry a wall adapter.

MacBook Pro in Europe

I have a 15" MBP that I bought in August 2007 (still going strong!). I'll be traveling in Europe (France and the Netherlands) for about 6 weeks this summer and was wondering about travel adapters for the MBP. The only electronic devices I'll have will be my MBP and iPod Touch 2G (which may...

And Turner Sports certainly knows how to put on a production. :thumbsup: Great picture quality and audio, especially in HD. The pitch-trax on the HD sidebar is actually really interesting, especially for long at-bats down the stretch. GO DODGERS!

So I went to a store today and tested the 3 systems ... the TomTom was very disappointing compared to the Garmin and Magellan, mostly in navigating menus. I actually liked the Magellan Roadmate 1440 over the Garmin Nuvi 255W, but I've noticed that Garmin devices are much more popular than...

bump... I was going to go to a store today and try these models out, but the company shipping my car cross-country came a day early (can't complain, can I?). No car for the next few days, so any suggestions for the time-being would be great! :)

TomTom iPhone App

I was hoping the car kit would work with iPod Touch (since it has its own GPS chip), but if the App is $100, I'm guessing the car kit is at least $175. No deal, I can get a standalone for cheaper.

Private 4 year schools that aren't Top 25 ranked...

Interstate Moving Companies

The stuff may be able to be replaced, but there's just no time to sell off the stuff and buy new furniture. edit: I know it seems weird, but there's family in ATL to stay with while the furniture is moved. But during that time, there's no time to go out and buy new things.
