Stuff • Our FTP problem is fixed, and the iPod, Mpeg4 and MP3, DivX, WMVand H.264 formats are up. Flash went up 2:00AM November 23. Joy. We can go home now. • Wow... long show, 58 minutes. We almost ran out of tape. Lots of stuff in this one! • Sony's PS3 is sold out. More Nintendo Wii units go on sale this Friday. • Two obvious shopping tips: 1. Prices online can be cheaper, but paying for overnight shipping can kill your savings. Shop early. 2. Do your research --before-- you head to the store. • Kids Stuff: FRS Radios, Radio Shack's Electronics Learning Lab, Lego Mindstorms, more! • Our digital camera picks, from ultra cheap to ultra-swank. • MP3 players: No shock, our top picks come from Apple, but we've got non-iPod options, too. • Robots! PCMag's Lance Ulanoff gives us the holiday scoop on everything from toddler terrifying raptors to DIY robot kits. • Graphics cards: pics at $150, $250 and mortagage payment. • Robert's HDTV reccos, our take on Blu-ray and HD-DVD. (Did you know the new Xbox 360 HD DVD box can be hacked to run on a Mac or PC?) • Cody wants cheap treats for HDTV owners. • Stocking stuffers: thumb drives, Leatherman tools and more. • Unix_Rootsu wants to know if he can build a new system this winter, or if he should wait for PCI-E 2.0 and DDR3 mobos. • Thinking about a new system? Balancing dollars vs. power? Start with an Intel Core 2 Duo E6300... or if you don't mind a little performance drop to go w/ AMD, an Athlon 64 X2. • Rob needs a call on a MacBook for his daughter: what's the difference between a black and white model? • Two wireless keyboard with mouse reccos for Nick. • Did we mention satellite radio recievers are downright cheap?
