  1. If you need games, you can also combine the discount with the free digital coupon offer:

    Buy the PSP for $249.99 and at least $150.01 in games and you will get $40 off instantly, plus a $30 digital coupon (gift certificate) will be e-mailed to you after your order ships.

     

    This article says Sony has no plans to lower the price before 2006.

  2. Sounds like these would have been a perfect fit for you. It's really too bad you missed out. I actually posted a deal here on the forum for them over a week ago when they were even cheaper - around $25 shipped.

     

    I really don't know of any other model of clip-on headphone/radio like this. You could always wait and keep checking to see if they get more in stock (people might have ordered and then cancelled). Otherwise you'll need to go to a regular pocket radio, something like one of these:

  3. Hi all, I am new here, I have been looking for a small FM radio and this looked decent enough. Unfortunately tweeters site says not available for online purchase. And the closest one to me is several states away.

     

    So any other good recommendations for a small, cheap FM radio. It needs to be somewhat loud, since I will be using it in a noisy environment. But I don't want to sacrifice volume for sound quality. I originally bought a very cheap(5 dollars) radio from RS. I didn't ecpect much from it, and thats what I got. It performs well as low volume, but if you crank it up to be able to hear it, it sounds really bad, most of the time you can't make out what they are saying.

    Welcome to the forum Mike. This item was in stock when I posted the deal this morning - you must have just missed it :(

     

    As for another radio, do you have a price range? If you are willing to spend $30-40, I'd look at the Sangean line of pocket radios. I believe Amazon.com carries a few of them. If you want something cheaper, let me know and I'll see if I can find something. But like you said, you get what you pay for. I think I saw a Panasonic model at Amazon for $9.99 a week or so ago that got good customer reviews.

    I think the general feeling is that it is an average device. Although the price has dropped significantly since it first came out.

     

    If you want something better, look into the Roku Soundbridge. I was able to pick one up (M1000 model) at Best Buy for $149 a few months ago, but it's still sitting in the box cause I haven't had time to play with it yet.

  5. What cards would you suggest instead? How much and is it worth it to upgrade to MCE? Wouldn't Sage (and others) be a better option?

    The stanard WinTV-PVR150 cards are basically the same as this model - just with one tuner (and FM, IIRC).

    Note the differences between the regular and MCE versions. If you are going to use MCE, then stick with the MCE versions, otherwise you might want to go with the "regular" versions since they come with remote and more software.
