Do you own both players, or do you work at Best Buy? Or, are you just assuming that they are the same?
Again, your opinion, FWIW
Thanks, Cassy! It hasn't been beaten into my head, or others for that matter for a while, so it must now be time.
euros?
They probably got hit with so many incorrect password hits that they just threw their hands up in the air and swore some really bad words. Then said "firetruck it" and put it back up.
Didn't they bring back Renee Warden? Or was it Wendy Ravenel?
Somehow, neither show up on the Management page.......Hmmmmmmm
Well maybe someone can find it on ebay and bring it to the shareholders meeting. I'm sure they're being sold for less than retail price................
Maybe they're ramping up to start delivering these items.

Disney beams movies for new home "rental" service
Monday September 29, 2:29 pm ET
LOS ANGELES, Sept 29 (Reuters) - Walt Disney Co. (NYSE:DIS - News) on Monday launched a home movie service in three test markets called MovieBeam that stores films in a set-top box and updates itself automatically via television broadcast airwaves.
The MovieBeam project, which will offer films for all but one major Hollywood studio, marks Disney's second attempt in recent weeks to break into home film distribution.
The Burbank, California-based company recently began offering disposable DVDs from its Buena Vista home video unit through retail stores, and it has also signed up with online download services CinemaNow and Movielink.
"Every time we offer additional services to consumers, it only really grows the pie for the movie studios," said Disney Executive Vice President Salil Mehta, who develops new technologies for Disney.
The MovieBeam set-top box, which is being manufactured by Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. (KSE:05930.KS - News), is similar in size to a DVD player and holds 100 movies on a 160-gigabyte hard drive, like TiVo and other brands of personal video recorders, the company said. Disney will send new movies, about 10 per week, to a digital receiver on the set-top box.
In a deal with public television stations, Disney is embedding a digital stream in traditional television signals, it said.
The service will launch first in Jacksonville, Florida; Salt Lake City, Utah; and Spokane, Washington, Disney said.
Disney could make money quickly on MovieBeam, since it can set up a metropolitan delivery system that adds a tiny digital stream of data to a traditional television station's signal for $250,000 or less, Mehta said.
MovieBeam requires a $6.99 monthly subscription fee, which covers the use of the box, while individual movie "rentals" on the service cost $3.99 for a new release and $2.49 for an older film. Movies can be watched for 24 hours.
The set-top box stores 100 movies and swaps out about 10 of those each week. MovieBeam gets the films at the same time as the pay-per-view cable television window, which is after video stores get the newest releases.
Chains like Blockbuster trumpet the release of videos and DVDs with a guarantee that consumers can rent a new release as soon as it hits shelves, but Mehta said Disney's research indicated that the release lag would not hurt MovieBeam.
"For the most part people don't seem to flock to the store on the first day of release," he said. Like disposable DVDs, MovieBeam promises the convenience of never having to return rented movies or pay late fees.
Some 30 million households rent at least four movies per month, he said.
It appears that the jubilation of Cassandra's post last night (which was a nice find, I may add) (hopefully I won't get struck down by lightning for saying that) did not flow through to the market today.
The spread has widened out from one cent, to now three cents. So, it looks like someone has put their two cents worth in the equation. FWIWWTWAH
Hey, has anyone called the Home Office to find out why they are having the SHM at the company? If I go, do I have to bring a lawn chair & umbrella? My own coffee cup and doughnuts? I've always wanted to go to Calyforneyeaye.
Happy Birthday Trend. It's my secretary's as well. Maybe you'll get a coffee cup in the mail from Robert.
. Print this off and you can color it any color you want.
Sheesh, the price is up!! What happened did Mr. Dell or Roy Disney start buying up shares?
Do, you think I'm in jeopardy? I live in Wisconsin, I suppose it could shoot down the Hudson, through the Great Lakes and then up the Fox River. But I would fear for those before me.
However, I do appreciate the concern. Biggest tsunami on my lake was a boat not following the "no wake" signs.

This is a free country right? At least the one I'm living in is. And, if I understand the board correctly, this is the place that you can come to give posters shit, including you and Cassy.
And your problem is what again?
Really Chuwacked? Cassy is a bitch and you appear to be the little bitchboy. Plain and simple.......even for you.
Churak, who are you? Cassy's little brother?
Have you signed up for dumbass therapy yet?
dumbass@dickweed.com
Cassy have you signed up for OC therapy yet?
They're still taking walk-ins.

So what is your point? Do you have one, or are you just checking your vast archives for more bandwidth use?
Thank you for that update. I'm sure Churak will really appreciate that.........he likes that burning sensation.
I almost choked on a potato chip when they finally appeared.
Actually, I guess I should have said a guitar
I thought you were a fiddle player? and don't you have a little tux?
Duke, lets hope it is this Holiday Season. We've seen many come and go, it would be nice to see one come to a joyous conclusion.
Perhaps a dinner date. Some soft music, a little fiddle player in a tight tux, some candles, a bottle of Bali Hai and off to the races
Wow, are those all 45's or 33's.......don't tell me they are 78's cause that would really screw up the math.
Funny you should say that. Aren't we associated with Intel?

Speech recognition is a long-promised technology that’s finally beginning to deliver. But today’s best systems tend to fail when the speaker is in a noisy spot. To fix this problem, researchers are adding lip-reading to the mix.

Well, you are probably exagerating. I've done the math and it can only hold between 21 and 28 months worth of songs.
It's a little bulky, but the guys and gals just love it down at the beach.
What is the resistance? $0.55? Someone go out and start a rumor that the O1000 can hold 30 months of songs with the new 100 gig hard drive.

My answer comes to: 154,734,693 what does yours come to?
I like the way this chart looks.....be nice to see it keep trending upward.
So what will the topic be today? Will it be on redundancy, simple math problems or something interesting?
Gosh, doesn't your name say it all?
So when has the Yen changed dramatically, week, month, day? Perhaps the costs were already taken into consideration, perhaps not though. Again, who knows?
Interesting question, none the less.
No, have you Cliff? What would be the impact on the current business model at e.Digital be? Would the difference change the costs of doing business and would it be a negative or a positive change?
Did they tell you that, or are you just ASSUMING again? Seems like alot of your assumptions are going right out the window.
Don't you think it is about time to give it a rest?
Edit: Didn't you also make the claim that e.Digital's doors would be closed by now?
Really Cass, who cares if it is 28 days, which happens to be a month called February or something less. Why must everything be so difficult for you that you must keep dwelling on the same thing forever? It it's not one thing it is something else.
Sheesh!!!
Yes, that is terrible isn't it? Thank goodness you are there to show us the bad in edigital.
But on a positive note, at least it gives you (regarding the PR's that are coming out) something NEW to nit-pick about other than the same old stories we've been so accustomed to reading.
Of course this is only my opinion, but more than likely shared by others.
