Panasonic DMC-FZ1 2MP 12X Optical zoom! digicam $249.88 shipped

The warranty for the digicam is only 1-yr for parts and ONLY 90 DAYS for labor (ridiculous). I would ask Fry's what is being extended. And don't take the sales person's words, I would ask for a copy of the extended warranty disclaimer. I'm usually have doubts about the extended warranties...

Panasonic DMC-FZ1 2MP 12X Optical zoom! digicam $249.88 shipped

Yup, 8MB is a big joke. But I think the most any company included w/ their camera is 32MB. One should buy extra memory anyways. I'm not sure how it is with most cameras, but the thing I like about this one is that when recording a movie, it's fast (maybe because it's 15fps?) and data is...

I got mine today also. Just play around w/ some pictures and upgraded the firmware, which was very easy and flawless. I'm loving it. And it's smaller than what I was expected. Nice pictures. Wow, I can't believe the first picture was taken w/ the G3! You do have shaky hands :) Can't...

It's the link that they gave to the customers who subscribed to their list. Another person has given me the same link, so it's not specific to an individual. They could be links with referer info, but I'm not sure. There is no direct link to the $234 deal, only to the $258 deal. Best bet is...

Trader Joe's: Droste and Van Houten imported cocoa

I just tried out my first cup of Droste Cocoa today, with water and sugar only. It must be my lack of good sense, because I don't find it to be aromatic as much as I expected. I guess I'm too used to the smell of hazle nut. I guess pinch of hazle nut powder and substitute sugar w/ honey...

*******THIS IS A PRIME EXAMPLE OF WHAT IS NOT ALLOWED HERE******

I would not be suprised if the seller will get a letter from UBI's lawyer(s) anytime soon. I'm sure "Splinter Cell" is trademarked by either UBI or Tom Clancy's ppl. The item's description page shows the seller jumping idiotically with "Hey, I'm violating UBI's trademark".
