Consumer Electronics - 14 June 2006

I'm somewhat fimiliar w/ SLR cameras growning up on a Pentax K1000 since I was about 12yo. I'm ready for a digital camera, but I'm lucky if my husband ever takes pictures. I'm trying to decide between Sony Cybershot dsc-h5 and Cannon power shot s3IS. I know I want Image stabilizer, 8 to 10 optical zoom, a decent sized lcd screen & rechargeable vs AA/A batteries--- we have 5 kids and are going to WDW in Oct--- I want to catch the whole experience w/o having to carry alot of equipt. & not intimidate my husband so he will take pics w/ me too. Trip of a life time dont want to miss a thing for the scrap "box" (with 5 kids and a ft job who books) hahaha can anyone help me decide? I'd like to stay under 400 for the entire package-- I'd like to use it beyond the trip too so I don't mind having variable features. Any other suggestions on which caamera to go for would be great. I like the idea of staying w/ a co that make cameras- I have looked at Olympus-limitedly in stores though.

You know what I mean, hopefully. There is a difference in the way something that you filmed in your garage to something filmed on a set, and not just the lighting, etc. I think it may have something do do with the speed of the film of the fps, but I'm not sure.

I've heard Thanksgiving is the best time to find good deals on Plasma TVs. Is there any other big sale besides that?

My son's coming home from Iraq for some r&r early next month, and this morning as I was IM'ing him, he said he needed or wanted a new ipod. I have only a vague idea of what an ipod is. Can someone help me understand what it is he's asking for. I know I can go to Best Buy or somesuch place and get one, but . . . what is it?

So i accidently dropped my creative zen touch about 2 months ago. All of the other buttons work except for the scroll in the middle. Any suggestions on what i can do to fix this if anything? I have reset it several times and reformatted it as well to no avail.

Not really a computer smart person as I am new at this. Any suggestions for a simple yet good scanner.

For instance, rather than buying a new CD deck for my car, would it be smarter to just buy a portable DVD player, and record my music to DVD (in order to hold much more songs per disc). Do most portable DVD systems play audio-only discs? or am i way off track? lol
