Was wanting to pick up something that my hubby can use out on the job site to run a small microwave from the truck. The microwave is 120v 60Mhz What do I need to get for him to be able to do that? And would it just get plugged into the lighter plug or should I get a battery for it to hook to? I would love for my hubby to be able to have a hot meal at lunch when it's cold out.

Okay, i've posted the same type of thing at least 3 or 4 times ( lol ) and i still can not get it.

Okay, i burned a dvd from my computer and yes, i have a dvd burner on there. When i went into my room to play it on my dvd player, it wouldn't work and said "disc read error. Playback may not be available on this disc."

So after 10 minutes of looking for the stupid owners manual, i found out that my dvd player only plays dvd-video, dvd-rw, dvd-r, dvd+rw, and dvd+r; Lucky for me, i used a dvd+r disc and for some reason, it didn't work.

When i began looking through the manual, it says something about "not playing discs recorded in vr (video recording) format." and i have no idea what that means.

SO, if someone can help me out, i'd finally be able to stop wasting points by asking a hundred questions :)

I have my Sony 42" widescreen TV and the DVD player connected to it via the S-Video cable. I've been buying almost all of my dvds in the widescreen format if the choice is given. My problem now is that when i play my dvds i still have to use the zoom feature to get these to fill the screen or else I'd have the 2 bars on the right and left sides of the picture. I dont think that is right so do i need to buy the component video cables to get the true widescreen? at this point its hard for me to tell if the image is stretched or not when i set it to fill the screen..

I have a Minolta DiMage 7Hi Digital Camera in which the Sony CCD (sensor) has failed. I am lead to understand that this was a problem with these sensors but that this has been resolved. My concern is that my camera has now been in the hands of a company reputed to be able to undertake the replacement free of charge for 16 weeks. The last information I received from the company was on the 16th September to say that because of the shortage of these sensors it was going to take months before I could expect the return of my camera. My concern is that after a month of hearing nothing I e-mailed them on Monday last i.e. 16th asking for an update of the situation. They in turn have not had the curtisy of replying. Has enyone out there suffered the same problem?

Where can I find good hidden cameras (that look like alarm clocks or other benign objects) that I can put in my bedroom to see if my girlfriend is seeing someone behind my back. I'd like it to be digital and beam the signal wirelessly to a harddrive elsewhere in the house. Tape is too old school and wires might look...err suspicious. Feel free to tell me I'm a bad person for not trusting, etc as long as you can also tell me where to get the camera (s) and peripherals. Thanks.

Mainly I want a small, portable means of keeping track of my finances. I dont carry my checkbook and notebooks get all warped and gross in my pocket. I would like to be able to ditch my giant planner as well. Whats a good, small PDA, around the 500 dollar range. I'll look at ones that cost more or less, but that range is my general goal.
