It's been good for me. Bought one for Xmas. Very compact, runs on two AA batteries that last a good while (I use rechargeables). Indoor flash pictures are adequate. Daylight shots are very nice. Digital (4x), not optical zoom. 8mb of memory built-in -- you'll need to buy an SD or MMC card...
Alert: I just called OfficeMax customer service to confirm that both $30 rebates were still valid and that all I needed to do was mail in a copy of my raincheck with the submission. The rep I talked to was not familiar with the deal. I asked him to check with his supervisor on what the...
Drives finally arrived at my store in Austin. Was charged the sale price ($79.99) with the assurance that the rebates will be honored so long as I send a copy of my rain check with the forms. Makes me a little nervous, as there are 2 rebates ($30 + $30) to mail different places. However...
I got a similar "coolish" tint to some of my indoor flash photos. I played with the gamma correction in the software (Ulead Photo Explorer) that comes with the camera, and this helped restore some vibrancy. Outdoors in daylight, these adjustments aren't necessary. Whitewashing happened only...
I bought this camera with a printer bundle a couple of weeks ago and am very satisfied with it. Today, it's advertised in the OfficeMax flyer, SKU is 2068-9346. You may be able to apply a $20-$25 off $100 coupon to sweeten the deal but I haven't checked this out. Camera is made by Digitrex...
I just installed my first generic black cartridge refill for the i470d, from megatoners.com. After using Canon tanks the first couple of times around, I have to say the results are disappointing. Even sans serif text looks blotchy and not crisp compared to the genuine article, as if the...

I got rejected for "invalid UPC code" on a 4x CDRW disk 50-pack Khypermedia rebate from OfficeMax last month. This was a dual rebate and I was forced to send a copy of the UPC for one of the two. I sent a resubmission following the instructions on the web site. OfficeMax rebates have...
I bought one last month from buy.com and concur that this is a great printer. The text quality to me looks about as sharp as a laser, and the output is nearly as fast. My principal worry about inkjets like this is smudging. I've read elsewhere that the BCI-24 uses pigmented ink, unlike...
Out of stock. 200 backordered, no idea when they'll be back in stock. Had it in my shopping cart, then went to buy another item and when I returned to check out it was removed with no indication as to why, just server error message. Had to phone them to find out what happened. Outpost has...
Anyone know if you can refill the ML-1710's toner cartridges? I've got a Lexmark E210 that is the same as earlier Samsung personal laser printers and (after drilling a hole in it) I've been able to refill the cartridge with toner bottles sold on Ebay
BB also has the next step up Toshiba model 1135-S155 for $850 AR thru 5/31. It's in this week's newspaper flyer. Double the RAM (512mb), 40gb hard drive. You must order online to get the $100 gift certificates. I ordered Sunday and mine still shows backordered. Customer service assures me...
Austin newspaper flyer has all the same items/prices except does not list the Siemens wireless pcmcia card. Does Frys match their own prices from its stores in other regions?
Beware. It says INK AND CABLE NOT INCLUDED. I believe these ship from Lexmark with ink cartridges. Sounds as if this dealer may be removing and reselling them elsewhere.
Got one in Austin. Store clerk told me they had sold out earlier in the day and there were none to be had in town. I was about to leave when he said wait a minute, they might have one left of the substitution item. They wouldn't take my $30 off $150 coupon I got in the mail because it says...
Just noticed that OfficeMax rebate coupon says "Claim must be postmarked within 7 days of purchase." And I had just decided to keep it, even though it's an Optorite. Fortunately I haven't yet cut out the UPC code.
Bought one of the IOmagic drives in Austin the day after Xmas. It's an Optorite (note spelling) model CW4802 and looks nothing like the picture on the box (Benq?). No stuck-on labels on the box as with the Cendyne drives to help you identify the manufacturer. Hard to find anything on...
True story: A few months ago, a local Wendy's here (Austin, TX) had the following letters on its big yellow sign out front:
FIGHT JUVENILE DIABETES
5 JR. FROSTYS $1
I didn't bother to ask the manager about the connection between the two.
Check the updated information about the bonus $25 prepaid card in my original post at the top of this thread. I don't expect prepaid cell phone deals to get much better than this until after Christmas.
I can tell you the way Nokia's AT&T rebate worked last year: You filled in your ESN on the rebate coupon. They use that unique identification number to check the status of your account with AT&T. Once you've had an active account for 30 days (which for prepaid service starts when you activate...
UPDATE 11/04/02: Deal gets even better. Received my phone today and just like the kit I bought last year there is an offer for an additional $25 refill card for filling out a postcard survey. Added to the $25 card included with the pack, that's $50 in free calling time over the first 90 days...
Has anyone else been stiffed on The Scientist CD-ROM rebate from Tinker's Guild? I bought it at Fry's before Christmas. Well, their website says the company is bankrupt and unable to fulfill the rebates.
I'm also curious to know what pressure I can bring on Fry's to pay it -- I've faxed...
In Austin TX, the CompUSA didn't have any .88 books today (Monday). Lowest price I found by having them scan the items at the register was $4.88, for the Coriolis Exam Prep/Cram series for Microsoft exams 70-210 (Windows 2000 Professional) 70-216 (Win2000 Network) and 70-220 (Win2000 Security...
I had to send my Phillips CDRW for warranty service recently -- less than 3 months after I bought it. The tray went spastic, continuously ejecting then reloading any CD placed in it. I only hope their repairs are more timely than their rebates.
