AMAZON EXCLUSIVE - Garmin eTrex Venture Cx Handheld GPS Navigator only $249.99 with FREE shipping ($18 off) Posted Friday, March 31, 2006 by David
With the Garmin eTrex Venture Cx Handheld GPS Navigator , Garmin offers all the basic features of the much-loved Legend Cx, without all the bells and whistles. You get the same great hardware and software with the Venture Cx as is found on the Legend Cx, but Garmin has removed the included MicroSD card, the USB cable, Trip and Waypoint software, and the bike clip. The result is an even more affordable little unit that keeps things simple -- perfect for the first-time GPS user or someone who doesn't want to fuss with a lot of extras. The Venture Cx is designed to go right out of the box, so there's no messing with computers or CD-ROMs.
Don't be deceived, though, the Garmin eTrex Venture Cx Handheld GPS Navigator has got power and features where it counts. You get a bright, full-color TFT display, a SiRF GPS navigation chip for supreme accuracy, automatic routing, and long, 32-hour battery life (using two AA batteries). All of this makes the Venture Cx a great companion for your next outdoor or boating adventure.
You can also use the Venture Cx's memory card slot with preprogrammed microSD cards from Garmin (sold separately) that provide topographic maps, city streets, and nautical charts. In fact, the unit is compatible with most Garmin MapSource products including BlueChart, City Navigator, U.S. Topo 24K, and U.S. Topo and Recreational Lakes with Fishing Hot Spots. The unit comes preloaded with an Americas Recreational Routable Basemap and you can get automatic, turn-by-turn directions with optional preprogrammed City Navigator cards, which navigate you safely to your destination. An integrated trip computer provides odometer, stopped time, moving average, overall average, total time, max speed and more.
Like on all eTrex units, the primary controls are located on the side of the unit, so you can operate it with one hand. An innovative rocker switch on its face makes inputting data easy, and with it you can scroll through menus or pan the map page. If at some point you want to integrate your computer with the Garmin eTrex Venture Cx Handheld GPS Navigator, you can purchase a USB cable, which makes loading charts and maps to an optional MicroSD memory card quick and easy. Plus, navigation instructions can be shared with repeaters, plotters, and autopilots using NMEA protocols through the dedicated serial port. Additionally, the case is water-resistant to IEC 60529 IPX7 standards (can be submerged in one meter of water for 30 minutes).
Another key feature of the Garmin eTrex Venture Cx Handheld GPS Navigator is the 10,000 point automatic track log; 20 saved tracks (500 points each) let you retrace your path in both directions. Meanwhile, there's a large numbers option for easy viewing, as well as a dual position display mode. Lastly, the unit includes built-in celestial tables for best time to fish and hunt, plus sun and moon calculations.

FREE Motorola i850 Phone (Nextel) with FREE shipping - (after $300 in savings) Posted Tuesday, March 21, 2006 by David
With the Motorola i850 Phone (Nextel), Nextel and Motorola continue their tradition of offering powerful handsets that help folks get the job done. With a built-in VGA camera, multimedia messaging, voice dialing, a speakerphone, and support for Nextel's legendary Direct Connect walkie-talkie service, this phone is designed to deliver great functionality in a stylish, easy-to-use package.
The i850's clamshell form factor sports a very large, 176 x 220 TFT color display with 262,000 colors. Meanwhile, the outside cover of the handset features a supplementary, 96 x 32 monochrome display that displays time, call information, battery and signal strength, and more. The phone's VGA (640 x 480) camera unit is placed just above this display. The speakerphone is located on the rear of the phone while the trademark Direct Connect and menu scrolling functions can be controlled from the side of the phone. The phone's control pad features a five-way button that can control most of the phone's functions, and there's also a 2.5-millimeter headset jack for connecting a hands-free headset.
The i850's built-in address book can store up to 600 contacts for quick and easy management of phone numbers and e-mail addresses. The phone comes with built-in polyphonic ringtones plus a vibrating alert, and more polyphonic ringtones can be added via download from the Nextel Online service. Voice-activated dialing makes calling your friends, family, and associates as easy as saying their names, while a built-in speakerphone makes it easy to talk without having the phone to your ear. And if you have an emergency, the i850's GPS location technology pinpoints your exact location when you dial 911.
One of the key features of any Nextel phone is support for Nextel's Direct Connect walkie-talkie technology. The Motorola i850 Phone (Nextel) fully supports the service, which allows for one-touch conversations with anyone else on a Nextel phone, or with entire groups of Direct Connect users. It's like a having a CB radio with enough range to cover all of North and Central America. With the i850's powerful Direct Talk function you can also communicate in walkie-talkie mode when you're not even connected to the network. The system works anywhere, anytime between compatible phones within a range of up to 6 miles (range will vary based on terrain and conditions). Direct Talk provides a reliable backup communications tool in times of emergency, network outage, or when traveling to remote areas not under Nextel coverage. And last but not least, the Motorola i850 Phone (Nextel) features a walkie-talkie private speaker button. This switches from the external speaker to the earpiece for private conversations or to minimize disruptions in quiet environments.
The Motorola i850 Phone (Nextel) features MMS-based support for mobile-to-mobile or mobile-to-e-mail text, images, and audio messaging. When used with the phone's built-in camera, MMS (multimedia messaging service) messaging opens up a whole new world of messaging fun. T9 text entry, which is a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built in to the unit--a plus for mobile e-mail and text messaging users. Getting on the Internet anywhere is easy with the i850, as well. Nextel's optional Nextel Online package allows you to read and send e-mails, exchange instant messages, and view your favorite Web content on your phone. Nextel Online also features games, ringtones, real-time news and sports updates, virtual address books, and more--all delivered to your Nextel phone. Also, because the i850 is GPS-enabled, you can use Nextel's location-based safety services like Mobile Locator, which allows you to locate a friend or family member's phone location at anytime, right from your computer. And finally, the Motorola i850 Phone (Nextel) ships with a calendar, a voice memo application, and a time and date clock.
The i850's 640 x 480 camera is enhanced by the phone's Media Center application, which allows you to easily store, browse, and send your photos. The Motorola i850 Phone (Nextel) is also packed with a number of Java applications. TeleNav for audible driving directions is included, as is 1KTV multimedia for news (both require a subscription). Preloaded games include Zuma, Block Breaker, and Texas Hold'em. More game downloads are available via the Nextel Online service.
The Motorola i850 Phone (Nextel) weighs 4.32 ounces and measures 3.46 x 1.85 x 1.14 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 245 minutes of digital talk time and up to 70 hours of digital standby time. It runs on the IDEN 800 frequency. The phone comes with a one-year limited warranty.
The Motorola i850 Phone (Nextel) is perfect for people who demand more than just a cell phone. Nextel's i850 phone is a powerful multimedia device with enhanced communication features so that anyone can be more effient and productive in thier day-to-day lives.

The Proview PL713b 17" LCD Monitor (Black) is a great screen for both the home and the workplace. Delivering outstanding resolution (up to 1,280 x 1,024 for both PC and Mac), a vivid 450:1 contrast ratio, and 250 nits of brightness, the TFT LCD's images are crisp, clear, and bright enough to permit easy viewing in everyday lighting conditions.

LCD screens offer a number of benefits over CRT monitors, including general ease of use, freedom from eye strain (minimal flickering and radiation emissions), quiet operation (no high-pitch "flyback" noise, an issue with CRT monitors), accurate image geometry (no curvature distortion or susceptibility to magnetic interference from, say, speakers), long screen life, space savings, and light weight/easy positioning.
The active-matrix Proview PL713b 17" LCD Monitor (Black) offers wide, 140-degree horizontal viewing angle (130 degrees vertical), letting you share onscreen graphics without making viewers crowd in front of the monitor. The screen is configured in a standard, 4:3 aspect ratio.
Customizable settings include brightness, contrast, horizontal/vertical positioning, an auto adjustment feature, phase, color, and language, all accessible via the set's intuitive onscreen interface. The monitor's stand detaches to permit wall mounting via its VESA interface.

Delivering 90 watts per channel across six channels and featuring 6.1 channel decoding with auto up-conversion--which means that signals are converted to 6.1 automatically--the STR-DE598 will deliver the sound you need, and then some.
Once you're ready for your music or video, this receiver will envelop you with completely separate channels for left, center, right, left surround, right surround, rear surround, and the special ".1" channel just for bass. This means that you'll experience a stronger and closer bass, and an overall digital sound experience unlike any other.
Because not all your entertainment will come from DVDs, this Sony receiver also incorporates Dolby Pro Logic II decoding. Whether you want to watch VHS hi-fi movie releases, digital satellite programs, TV sports, drama and movie broadcasts, or even good old laser discs (remember them?), this receiver has you covered.

And, of course, the Sony STR-DE598 6.1 Channel Surround Sound AM/FM Audio/Video Receiver includes Sony's proprietary Digital Cinema Sound System with Cinema Studio EX A/B/C Modes, a group of exclusive Sony algorithms that represent a total rethinking of home theater sound. Based on careful measurements of movie-production dubbing stages in Hollywood, Cinema Sound recreates true movie theater sound in your home by emulating the spacious acoustic environment of a movie theater. Even if your television is only 10 feet away, you'll experience that "big room" sound you get from the theater. Until you've experienced it, there's no way to describe the pulsating thrills that Sony's Digital Cinema Sound brings to the comfort and convenience of your home.
The receiver includes an FM/AM tuner with 30 station presets (20 FM, 10 AM) and a host of inputs. Five digital audio inputs (two coaxial and three optical ins) and one optical digital output, and two assignable component-video inputs are available, along with three A/V inputs with S-Video.

A bass and treble equalizer and A/B or A+B speaker switching for the front speakers are also included. Throw in Sony's Remote Commander Remote Control unit, and you've got yourself a package that will keep you happily on your couch for hours at a time.
As for its look and feel, at 16.875 inches wide, 6.25 inches high, and just 14.5 inches deep, and a bit shy of 20 pounds, the Sony STR-DE598 6.1 Channel Surround Sound AM/FM Audio/Video Receiver is lighter and trimmer than most similarly equipped models. All in all, Sony has built a receiver that brings all the thrills of Hollywood into your home without the Hollywood prices.

There's also an LED light indicator that shows the status of the headset, including notification of pairing mode, pairing successful, power state, charge state and call state. Call management features --such as voice dialing, last number dial, conference calling and hold-- are available right from the headset, so you can leave your phone in your pocket, in your briefcase, or across the room. All of this is rolled up into a package that weighs less than .8 ounces.
Compatibility of the Motorola HS820 Bluetooth Headset - Hematite Gray: Motorola A630, RAZR V3, V505, V551, V600 and V710 Phones, and all other Bluetooth 1.1 or 1.2 compliant devices.

Sleekly styled, the Ferrari 4006's carbon-fiber casing--which is stronger and lighter than aluminum--comes in a more conservative black and is accented with exclusive Ferrari red edges and the classic yellow prancing horse Ferrari logo, and the interior has a rubberized coating. Made for today's demanding applications and ready to continue working into tomorrow, the Ferrari 4000 is powered by an AMD Turion 64 Mobile processor and Windows XP Professional x64 edition (which is ready to support 64-bit native applications, as well as current 32-bit software).
