ok. i know this had to have been a crank call..i have two cell phones. some jerk off just called me with a computerized a voice and said they were my alter ego and to get off of my lazy azz blah blah blah. but the kicker is that on the caller ID, it listed my OTHER cell phone number. so basically they had some code where they could do this. am i just old and out of the loop? how did they do it? it had to have been someone i knew b/c they used specific details and my name.

The volume on my home telephone is too low. I have just bought a new phone and the volume is still low! This is with the volume turned up too the max. I have to strain to hear. Do I have bad wiring?

I have 3 new flashlights from Innovage Products Inc Brand new out of box and not one of them work (new batteries in them). They are metal 9X (meaning they have 9 led bulbs in them) and are about 4-5 inches long (about the size of a roll of quarters). Can someone please provide me with an address or phone number to the company, as I can not find anything on the web referencing this company.

We're in a dispute over the time someone arrived for a service. Our caller id, still shows one call but not the one we need. We have the number, date, and time of day, seems like on Law and Order they do this just wondering it the technology is there, and easily available. Wish they would have called my cell, since that does keep a log.

Has anyone seen that commercial with a business man sitting at his desk, a Fairy on a plant and a leprechaun on his desk and he takes a picture while he shakes the camera back and forth and it comes out perfect? He shows it to the other guy in the office and says that his camera takes perfect pictures like that all the time. Does anyone know the make and model of that camera, I really wanted to get it but I wasn't sure who made it and the model name.

I noticed the camera can suddenly powered off on its own and I had to press the power on button again.
This is despite using new batteries from reputable brands.

Is this a defect in the camera ?

The main feature I'm looking for in a digital camera (for regular use--nothing too fancy) is the speed in which it actually shoots the picture. I hate getting a great pose from little kids or a great smile and pressing the button and having the shot happen 3 seconds AFTER that great opportunity. Is your camera one of those really quick ones? I'm also not looking to spend over $250, btw.

When I say dim light enviroment I mean a club. I don't like the infrared effect! And I can't use a light bulb to lighten the scene that I'm shooting because it will ruin the club atmosphere... Any suggestions?

When the Tivo dual tuners first came out I bought one from Tivo directly, the problem I had was the unit strecthed the picture to 16/9 even thought I had it set for 4/3, I've had a "series 2" single tuner unit for 4 years and never had that problem, one Tivo tech told me that was normal and another told me it was not so I returned the unit.
I was wondering if anybody else has had this problem, both Tivo units where hooked up the same way, they are wired to my Yamaha receiver and then to a 50" Sony LCD 16/9 tv. Thanks for any help, Joe
