Bluetooth is not a feature of your phone. The headset would be useless till you bought a new phone. Your phone: http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/phone.php?p=649

Reviews on a Westy 27" LCD HDTV: http://www.epinions.com/Westinghouse_LTV_27W2_Television/display_~reviews People seem to like it.

iTunes giftcards are available at many convenience stores, drug stores, etc. (and www.apple.com, of course). They are always at "face value" though.

Apples never seem to go on sale. Here's the best deal around: http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=32DAAC51&nclm=Certified $149 for 4GB refurbs w/ one-year Apple warranty & free ship

Yeah, if you are using the shopping list feature don't wait to print it out last minute! http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileys/ok.gif

I wouldn't recommend a Kodak camera personally. I'm not happy with the focus on mine. Kodak's are known to have their focus get fuzzier as the camera gets used. This is not the case with most digital cameras. But to answer your question, I'd try to get in to Best Buy on Friday afternoon if at all possible (I'm assuming you don't want to go join the BF morning madness).

Mad Dash! http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Sad%20Upset/millan_whatdidimiss.gif Tickets are only for the Early Bird items in very limited quantities (big TVs, laptops, desktops, etc.)

Be sure you read the reviews before you purchase it! It's a mixed bag, for sure!

I had problems yesterday and today. It's sporadic.

1) That would be a non-standard hookup. In my experience, I've never heard of someone hooking up a wired and a wireless router together. The wireless router will REPLACE your wired router. If you need more wired ports on your router, you'll hook up a wired switch to your wireless router. Switches are "dumb" products, by that I mean that they don't have an internal processor and ram like routers have. At it's most basic level, a router is a mini-computer. This wiki-article does a good job of explaining routers: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Router I would imagine the wired and wireless router duking it out. http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Sports%20Exercise/box.gif 2) Wal-Mart and other box stores will only match PRE-REBATE prices. In your price-matching example, Wal-Mart or Staples will be charging you $79.99 ("pre-rebate" price at Circuit City) or their standard shelf price whichever is lower.

If items (or the page they appear on) aren't specifically marked as being Early Bird items, then it's safe to assume they are offered at that price all day. DO NOT assume that they'll be available all day though --- if they sell out, you are outta luck! Hope that helps. http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Non-Smiling/Wipe-Glasses.gif

You'll love the linksys. I've tried Netgear and D-Link, they were both awful. With Linksys, you'll have to unplug/replug it every two months or so to reset it, but other then that, it's smooth sailing. I had to unplug/replug my Netgear 3-5 times PER DAY! And it wasn't a defective router, I returned two of them as RMAs. I finally got stuck owning the thing.... No more Netgear in this house!

Oh, for anyone reading this looking for a gift for someone in my age-group, a gift subscription to Your Music would be a great gift: http://www.yourmusic.com/gift_subscriptions/ Every month they'll get a new CD of their choosing! Costs: 3 months ($17.97), 6 months ($35.94), 9 months ($53.91) or 12 months ($71.88) increments. The service is run by BMG music so the catalog of selections if pretty extensive! My wife and I both have subscriptions already.

A nice pair of leather gloves is a possibility. I already have two different sized pocket knives (very handy though!) Too many magazines, no time for books. However, that Gameboy looks really cool -- I would've never thought of that! Are all the games in the $25-$30 price range? (That's what I saw on Amazon). I know NOTHING about the Gameboys... http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Non-Smiling/ththinking.gif

Hmmmmm.... Amazon.com has the whole box set for $139.99 w/free shipping. http://www.amazon.com/M-Martinis-Medicine-Complete-Collection/dp/B000HT3P5Q/sr=8-2/qid=1163174392/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2/002-2135086-9180822?ie=UTF8&s=dvd It includes the movie "Mash", all 255 episodes, and some behind-the-scenes stuff. That's probably less than $1/hour of entertainment!

Yes, but the OP was asking about the new second-generation ipod shuffle. It just came out in October - it has a built-in clip function: http://images.apple.com/ipodshuffle/images/indexsleeveguy20060912.jpg

There are a few places that have the new iPod Shuffle (MA564LL/A) for $74.00, but once you pay for shipping, it ends up being $6-8 more than buying it right from Apple (since Apple currently offers free shipping for orders over $50). Here are the searches I did: http://gottadeal.pricegrabber.com/search_getprod.php?masterid=26035856&search=MA564LL%2FA http://froogle.google.com/froogle?q=MA564LL%2FA Right from the Apple Store: http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wo/StoreReentry.wo?cid=AOSA10000007849&cpncode=10-28506372-2&srccode=cii_5784816&family=iPodshuffle

Finally found one!!! Refurbished, but it's the only one I've found for under $100. RCA RBDRC-8310 REFURB DVD/VCR Recorder Combo -- $79.00 http://shop1.outpost.com/product/5017735
