10 random game demos & bonus discs (mostly PS2) - $4.95 shipped

I bought this when it was 20 Xbox games. There were no demos, a a good variety of games, but all were scratched really bad. They appeared to be rental copies, which these probably are as well. 4 of the 20 that I got didn't work.

Skype Killer - Magic Jack - $20.00 a year phone service

Yes, using Voipo as my main line; I ported my phone number I've had for 15+ years to it, and I'll be able to take that number with me anywhere I go (no plans to go anywhere at the moment). I've had it for ~6 months with zero issues. The Cisco/Linksys device they use is rock solid, I have had...

Gears of War 2

This is a good price, but if you liked GOW1, be prepared to be disappointed. I played GOW1 and GOW2 back to back, and there's no comparison. GOW2 is half to 2/3 rail shooting, platform jumping, and other silly stuff, that most FPS gamers will not care for.... lots of gimmicks that look...

Skype Killer - Magic Jack - $20.00 a year phone service

It's pretty well assumed over on the DSLreports forums that the $99/year will be available in year 2, if you ask for it. No guarantee, but I suspect that's what will happen. They don't make you buy the hardware, so there's nothing to lose. If they decide to raise the price in year 2, just...

Skype Killer - Magic Jack - $20.00 a year phone service

I looked at MagicJack (really a scam company if you do your research) and I also considered Ooma. Don't believe what Magic Jack says about getting your money back. Customer service is non-existent. After doing lots of research, I settled on VOIPo, and it's been terrific. It's $99/year...

T-mobile Prepaid promotion

I agree, T-mobile is the best pre-paid service. You can convert most any T-mobile phone or unlocked GSM phone to pre-paid by buying a pre-paid SIM card on Ebay. My wife had it and it was great, but the coverage was not as good as T-mobile on a contract.

Newegg refurb question..

Most of those aren't good prices anyway. I found the Canon G2 elsewhere for $450 before discounts and rebates. Dell price after discounts = $599. The G3 is out now (and available for $585), so Dell's price is crazy.

BURNING HOT! - PALM M125 HANDHELD ORGANIZER FOR $69 AFTER COUPON/REBATE + FREE SHIPPING

If the price is close, the M500 is by far the much better deal (I have owned both). The M500 is much smaller and thinner, but has a bigger screen, and most importantly flash ROM, which means the operating system can be upgraded to OS 4.1 and beyond (if Palm releases another 4.x operating...

*DEAD - OOS* UPDATE lower price - Samsung 760V 17-in LCD $439.05 AR @ BUY.COM w/ Discover Card

The floor model probably wasn't fuzzy. LCD monitors have a fixed resolution (1280x1024 for this one) and if you run them at any other resolution, they have to scale the image, which results in a slightly fuzzy image. The monitor you saw on display was probably running at 1024x768 instead of...

Samsung LCD tv/monitor deal

You can't really compare LCD monitor/TV's with LCD TV's, because most "LCD TV's" are actually plasma, and not LCD. Plasma tends to be brighter and last longer than LCD. That's why some of them are so expensive.
