FREE RIM BlackBerry 8700c Phone (Cingular) with FREE shipping (after $500 in savings) Posted Tuesday, January 31, 2006 by David

The latest BlackBerry is better than ever with a thinner profile, a huge screen, a more powerful processor, EDGE data support, and more. The RIM BlackBerry 8700c Phone (Cingular), an integrated phone, e-mail client (with support for corporate email servers), organizer, and Web browser is the ultimate weapon for mobile professionals. The BlackBerry 8700c Wireless Handheld™ is the ultimate balance of performance, design and function. This handheld represent a major leap forward in wireless innovation, elegantly integrating advanced hardware, software and network technologies in a thin, stylish, lightweight handheld. The BlackBerry 8700c™ and BlackBerry 8700r™ offer proven BlackBerry® functionality such as push email, phone, browser and organizer. Plus, you’ll be wowed by the sleek design, fast performance, light sensing screen and more.

Design-wise, the RIM BlackBerry 8700c Phone (Cingular) is a nice upgrade from BlackBerry devices of the past. Yes, the same handy jog dial is present on the right side, and yes, you'll still find a full QWERTY keypad. This device is thinner and lighter, however, and the screen is bigger and brighter than ever; the high resolution 320 x 240 LCD display supports over 65,000 colors. Plus, intelligent light-sensing technology automatically optimizes screen lighting levels for indoor and outdoor viewing. The 8700c also features large, dedicated send and end keys for easier call management.

The popular BlackBerry user interface is here, too, but it's been updated with a new look. Plus, a powerful Intel PXA901 processor, 64 MB flash memory, and 16 MB SDRAM combine to deliver a dynamic, highly responsive experience when viewing attachments and graphics, browsing the Web, and running applications. There's also a standard 2.5mm headset jack that can be used with the included headset, and a removable lithium-ion battery is housed in the rear of the unit.

Many of the calling capabilities folks have come to expect in a wireless phone are present, but the 8700c ups the ante with MP3 ringtones. Plus, the built-in speakerphone offers hands-free calling and convenient conference calls. The unit's Bluetooth capability (version 2.0) means you can use a wireless headset with the phone for hands-free calling. A vibrating alert, speed dial, and a contacts list/address book (limited only by the unit's 64 MB of internal memory) are also included. The 8700c is a quad-band phone designed for global roaming in 170 countries for voice and 90 countries for data.

The 8700c delivers the legendary BlackBerry e-mail experience. With Cingular's BlackBerry service plans, you can receive e-mails instantaneously from up to 10 e-mail accounts (personal and enterprise). With BlackBerry push technology, you don't need to retrieve your e-mail. BlackBerry devices are designed to remain on and continuously connected to the wireless network, allowing you to be discreetly notified as new e-mail arrives. Support is also built-in for viewing e-mail attachments (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, WordPerfect, and PDF formats).

Because the 8700c is fast, and because it supports EDGE high-speed data networks, users can take advantage enterprise applications that are wirelessly enabled by the BlackBerry platform, such as sales force automation, field service automation, network and systems management, and more.

If your company has BlackBerry Enterprise Server installed, you can also take advantage of the power of wireless calendar synchronization. Your calendar events are exchanged wirelessly and automatically so that your desktop calendar and BlackBerry device calendar are synchronized. All your Outlook meeting requests, changes, and updates are instantaneously synchronized instantaneously with your desktop. Make meeting requests, invite new attendees and more, all on your 8700c. Users without Enterprise Server support can manually sync with their desktop calendars and contacts via Bluetooth or USB using the included BlackBerry Desktop software.

Use the 8700's Web browser to access the Internet from the palm of your hand. Browse Web sites, get up-to-date stock quotes, read the latest news, check weather reports, and more. Wireless text messaging and multimedia messaging (MMS) is also supported by the 8700c.

The 8700c ships with a number of tools, including a calculator with a unit converter and a to-do list. The unit's software is based on the Java platform, meaning Java-compatible games and applications can be added to the device.

The RIM BlackBerry 8700c Phone (Cingular) weighs 4.7 ounces and measures 4.3 by 2.7 by 0.8 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 4 hours of digital talk time and up to 16 days of digital standby time. It runs on the 850/900/1800/1900 GSM/EDGE frequencies. The phone comes with a one-year limited warranty.

Delphi XM Roady XT Satellite Radio Receiver now $26.79 (after a $30 MIR and $23.19 in savings) Posted Tuesday, January 31, 2006 by David

The smallest and lightest XM satellite radio on the market, the Delphi XM Roady XT Satellite Radio Receiver comes with everything you need to enjoy more than 150 commercial-free satellite channels in your car while you're driving across town or across the country. The plug-and-play Roady XT is easy to install, with no wires or cables required. Simply dock it on your dash, where it uses its built-in FM transmitter to wirelessly transmit the signal to an empty frequency on your FM dial. The device supports more than 100 frequencies, so even users in the busiest radio markets should be able to find several static-free channels. Once installed, listeners will have access to the full XM menu of music, sports, talk, news, children's, and entertainment programming, all without having to listen to a single commercial. The Roady XT also offers 21 advanced traffic and weather channels--yet another reason XM was named best radio service at the 2004 Billboard Digital Entertainment Awards.

To make the listening experience more informative, the Delphi XM Roady XT Satellite Radio Receiver displays the channel name, artist name, and song title for each XM channel on the bright, high-contrast screen, which boasts seven vivid backlighting colors. Complementing the track info is the TuneSelect feature, which alerts listeners when their favorite songs and artists are playing on a specific channel. Meanwhile, sports and finance fans will delight in the customizable sports and stock tickers; the former runs through the latest scores and schedules for both college and the pros, while the latter keeps track of up to 20 stocks at once.

All the features come bundled in a sleek, innovative housing that's designed to ensure high sound quality while taking up a minimum of space. The diminutive size (it measures a mere 3.7 by 2.2 by 0.61 inches) fits easily in most jacket pockets or purses. This not only helps protect against theft, but also makes it convenient to bring the Roady XT inside for home use (requires the Roady XT home kit).

Save $200 on Samsung HC-R4755W 47" HD-Ready Rear Projection TV (now $1,099.99) Posted Saturday, January 14, 2006 by David

If you're thinking about replacing a 36-inch direct view TV in a moderately sized room, take a look at the HD-ready Samsung HC-R4755W 47-inch CRT rear-projection tabletop TV. You'll get an amazingly sharp picture thanks to several Samsung innovations, including the RealFlect video system (driving high contrast, robust colors) and the HD Fine Pitch Screen (0.52mm), which brings out fine image detail and improves picture clarity especially when viewing higher definition video sources like DVD and HDTV. It has a built-in 181-chanel NTSC tuner for standard broadcasts, as well as a built-in HD/Digital tuner (ATSC/NTSC).

The Samsung HC-R4755W 47" HD-Ready Rear Projection TV features a widescreen picture aspect ratio (16:9; standard TVs have a 4:3 aspect ratio), which is the ideal screen format for viewing widescreen video from DVD players and the growing availability of broadcast programming off digital HDTV tuners (HD content is always widescreen), cable boxes and satellite receivers. You can choose the perfect aspect ratio for what you're watching with five picture format sizes: Wide, Panorama, Zoom 1, Zoom 2 or Normal.

The 3D digital comb filter helps reduce video noise by comparing each horizontal scanning line with the lines above and below and with the corresponding line on the previous subsequent video frames. The 3:2 pulldown cinema video processing feature detects and compensates film--which is shot at 24 frames per second (fps) compared with video's 30 fps rate--to video for a smooth theater-like experience at home. With the single push of a button, the Auto Self Focus system adjusts and improves picture focus. The Velocity Scan Modulation feature sharply defines edges and outlines by controlling the speed of transitions between the black and white portions of the signal.

The 30-watt stereo audio system (two 15-watt speakers) delivers ample sound for sports and movies. The BBE High Definition Sound Processing circuit adjusts the phase relationships of the low, mid and high frequencies and the augmentation of the higher and lower frequencies. The Samsung HC-R4755W 47" HD-Ready Rear Projection TV features the following video and audio connections:
* Composite Video In: 3 (1 Side, 2 Rear)
* S-Video In: 1 Side
* Component Video Input: (Y, Pb, Pr) 2 Rear (480i/480p/720p/1080i)

Save $909.42 on Toshiba 37HL95 37" Cinema Series Flat-Panel LCD HDTV (now $2,090.57) Posted Wednesday, January 11, 2006 by David

This model does not come with a built-in DVD player. Toshiba does make a 37-inch flat-panel LCD TV that does include a DVD player--see model 37HLX95.

Save space and enjoy a wonderfully vivid picture with the stylish, Toshiba 37HL95 37" Cinema Series Flat-Panel LCD HDTV, a great choice for your living room's entertainment center. It has a built-in analog/digital (NTSC/ATSC) tuner that will receive free over-the-air HDTV signals and is Digital Cable Ready (via the CableCard slot), so you can enjoy digital cable without an additional box or remote using an optional CableCard. It also comes with TV Guide On Screen and Toshiba's innovative Channel Browser "back" button feature--similar to a PC browser back button--that allows easy access to recently viewed channels. The 37HL95 makes it easy to connect to brilliant imagery with its component and HDMI connections, and it can also double as a PC monitor.

The 37HL95's video is powered by the PixelPure AT digital video processor, which offers motion adaptive de-interlacing, adaptive MPEG processing, and adaptive contrast and color enhancement for a consistently high picture quality. The HD Dynamic Contrast feature increases Contrast and Color Saturation to create deep, rich images, analyzing both the dark and bright areas of the picture, and separately optimizing the dynamic range in each area of the picture.

The 37HL95 has a widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio--perfect for high-definition telecasts and DVD movies--1366 x 768-pixel resolution, fast 12 ms (millisecond) response time, wide 170-degree viewing angle, 500 cd/m2 (candela per square meter) brightness rating, and amazing 600:1 contrast ratio. (The higher the contrast ratio, the greater a TV's ability to display subtle color details and not get washed out by ambient room light.) It supports 720p (HDTV), 480p (EDTV), and 480i (SDTV) video formats.

The 3D Y/C digital comb filter constantly analyzes the three dimensions of picture height, picture width, and picture changes-over-time, to reduce dramatically edge image artifacts while improving transition detail. The Digital Cinema progressive scan (3-2 inverse pulldown) function provides accurate, smooth film reproduction. Other features include a sleep timer, V-Chip parental controls, color temperature adjustment, tri-lingual on-screen menus (English, French, Spanish), channel labeling, and closed captioning on mute.

The 37HL95 has two stereo speakers that provide 10 watts of power per channel (for 20 watts of total power) and SRS 3D and SRS WOW virtual surround sound modes. The Toshiba 37HL95 37" Cinema Series Flat-Panel LCD HDTV offers the following video and audio connections:
* Composite AV (RCA) In: 3 (1 side)

* Component Video In (Y PB PR): 2

Save $1999.96 on Panasonic TH-42XVS30 42" Onyx XVS Plasma HDTV with Digital Media Receiver (now $3,499.99 with FREE shipping) Posted Tuesday, January 10, 2006 by David

This Panasonic TH-42XVS30 42" Onyx XVS Plasma HDTV comes with a TU-PT700U Digital Media reciever included so you can take full advantage of all this great panel has to offer.

The realism of a TV's image is strongly linked to its contrast ratio, and this plasma features a high contrast ratio of up to 3000:11. Such a wide range from black to white means great depth and dimensionality with vibrant colors. Deep blacks provide excellent shadow detail during dark scenes, while brilliant whites allow our plasmas to render bright scenes with vivid realism.

Panasonic plasma HDTVs with CableCARD slots can accept a small card that allows you to receive standard definition and high definition digital broadcasts. No bulky set-top cable box—perfect for a wall-mounted plasma TV. Contact your cable company to find out if they offer this service in your area.

Sports, movies, and original network programming are all available in high definition from many local broadcasters. Receive and view local over-the-air broadcasts on this plasma in stunning HDTV clarity using the built-in HDTV tuner2. If your cable company passes through HDTV broadcasts from local broadcasters, you can decode and tune those as well.

If you have even a moderately complicated home theater setup, you probably have a pile of tangled cables on the floor behind it. Imagine replacing all those cables with a single cable that carries both digital video and audio at the same time. With the new HDMI standard, that's exactly what you get. The HDMI connector on this TV accepts high-quality digital video and audio via the same thin cable, allowing you to run one cable from the source to the TV.

The best images you can ever view on a Panasonic plasma don't have anything to do with HDTV. Share your JPEG photos taken with a Lumix® digital camera on a Panasonic plasma using the built-in SD card slot. Simply insert the SD card, which is about the size of a postage stamp, into the SD slot on the TV and enjoy a photo slideshow.

The Panasonic TH-42XVS30 42" Onyx XVS Plasma HDTV with Digital Media Receiver features a width-to-height ratio similar to movie theater screens, providing a theater-like experience at home. View HDTV broadcasts and widescreen DVDs the way they were meant to be seen.

HDTV broadcasts and DVDs offer more detail and better color than analog broadcasts, and it takes a high-resolution display to deliver all that picture information. The high pixel count of this plasma display provides fine detail for outstanding HDTV reproduction. More pixels also translate into less stair-stepping artifacts; curved and diagonal edges look smooth and natural.

Save $500.11 on Sanyo NV-E7000 Portable GPS and Mobile DVD Entertainment System (now $999.88 with FREE shipping) Posted Friday, January 6, 2006 by David

Upgrade your car instantly and add practical utility and style with the Sanyo NV-E7000 Portable GPS and Mobile DVD Entertainment System. The DVD-based GPS Guidance System will help you navigate through unfamiliar areas without worry. The system is supplied with map information for the entire continental United States and Canada.

This system also functions as a full-featured mobile DVD and CD player for fun where ever you go. And, when you've reached your destination, take the player indoors with you to continue the fun.

The 7-inch display provides rich DVD video quality, and it offers map detail larger than most GPS systems.

The Sanyo NV-E7000 Portable GPS and Mobile DVD Entertainment System features:
* DVD-ROM Navigation System: Utilizes a supplied DVD map disc of the entire continental United States and Canada to suggest a route, offer traveling directions and other information. DVD-based navigation systems deliver greater geographic coverage, more detailed points-of interest information and calculate routes faster than CD-ROM-based systems, which typically require the use of several discs.
* POI (Point-Of-Interest Data Base): Stores the locations of nearby restaurants, banks, gas stations, shopping areas, amusement parks and other commonly requested destinations. This greatly simplifies travel by eliminating reliance on phone books and/or directory assistance operators.
* Menu-Driven Graphical User Interface: Offers a simple, easy-to-follow way to access all system functions using the 4-position joystick/enter buttons on the remote or the front panel.
* Recent Destinations History: Even if you forget to input an often-frequented destination in your address book, the NV-E7000 has you covered. It automatically stores to and from route information for your most recent destinations, making retracing your travels easier than ever.
* Estimated Travel Time: Who isn't in a hurry these days? Quick as a wink, the NV-E7000 can repeatedly use GPS signal information to calculate and determine your remaining travel time as you approach your destination.
* Complete Portability: Unlike fixed navigation systems, the NV-E7000 can be easily transferred from one vehicle to another. With the optional battery pack, it can also be quickly pressed into service as a portable navigation/DVD entertainment system.
* Auto Re-Route: The NV-E7000 is watching the road even when you're preoccupied in conversation. Its Auto Re-Route function will automatically calculate and display a new route whenever the driver misses a turn or veers off course.
* Preferred Route: The NV-E700 lets you pick the path that's right for you. Choose from several options, including faster, shorter, optimal route, etc. You can even choose a route from as many as three on-screen options.
* Route Simulation: Lets you preview your trip in advance so you can familiarize yourself with cross streets and local landmarks. When used outside of the vehicle without the GPS receiver, this handy feature actually transforms the NV-E7000 into a map of the area in which you happen to find yourself.

$12.96 off Sandisk ImageMate 12-in-1 USB 2.0 Hi-speed Reader (now $26.99 with FREE shipping) Posted Friday, January 6, 2006 by David

If you own a portable digital device that contains data and information, there's a good chance it stores that information on a removable memory card. When it comes time to transfer or copy that information to your computer for processing, editing, or storage, you have a couple of choices. Firstly, you can connect the device directly to your computer via whatever method it supports. This could present problems, depending on the connection type and speed, the size of the device and the durability of its connection port.

Alternately, you can remove the memory card and insert it in a dedicated card reader. Of course, you must ensure the card reader in question supports your memory card format(s) and operates at top speed. The Sandisk ImageMate 12-in-1 USB 2.0 Hi-speed Reader is one such product.

It's definitely fast. Taking advantage of high-speed USB 2.0, the unit transfers data incrementally faster than similar products using conventional USB 1.1. It's also quite likely compatible with your memory cards. Indeed, the sleek and futuristic ImageMate 12-in-1 supports all the following formats: CompactFlash Type I, CompactFlash Type II, SD Card, miniSD, MultiMediaCard, RS-MMC, Memory Stick, Memory Stick PRO, Memory Stick Duo, Memory Stick PRO Duo, SmartMedia and xD.

The Sandisk ImageMate 12-in-1 USB 2.0 Hi-speed Reader is fully backwards compatible with slower USB 1.1 ports and does not require additional card adapters. Moreover, software drivers are not necessary in Windows ME, 2000, XP and OS X v10.1.2+ environments.
