Does your Dell 700m do this?

Mine does not do this. About 6 months old. If you pop the key off, is it still as sensitive?

Titanium Jewelry

If you think an all-titanium wedding ring is cheap, you could always mix in some precious metals. We ordered our custom designs from a designer in New Zealand - gold, stones, whatever. The big advantage to me is the light weight. Try "giving" a woman any kind of weeding ring without allowing her...

Beef jerky $11 ~ $12/lbs?

This stuff tastes nothing like Oberto or other American jerky. I've never had the fruit, but the spicy stuff was only mildly spicy with the 5-spice flavor. It was soft, the cubes are moist.

Beef jerky $11 ~ $12/lbs?

It tastes like five spice powder (a little licorice hint), and a little sweet. I ordered during some deal a while back - I liked the taste a lot, some pieces had tough fat or tendons and were inedible. BTW, shipping was about $6 to Raleigh. I think the last deal I got in on had this price but...

beef jerky 25% off + 5% one time use coupon

Have to say I wasn't thrilled with the jerky I received from FortuneJerky the last time their deal was posted. I liked the taste (like five spice), but too many of the cubes had large pieces of fat or had an entire side covered in a mebrane. Had to pick through it to avoid unpleasant bites...

Yes, you can make TiVo get its program listings over the network connection instead of dialing over the phone line. Note that it's not as simple as buying a TiVo and this network card. You have to open the box and install it. Not a big deal for most of us, but a pretty big deal for the average...
