Consumer Electronics - 9 July 2007

What a pathetic excuse ,not only they are trailing behind Nintedo Wii and Xbox ,but they are the most expencive consol on the bleeding market ,they have reduced the price by $100 ? Is that the best Sony can do ? I think the best will be to sell the consol half price !!! The games are extremly expencive even second hand ,Sony give up you are outruned, beaten by your competitors left with the crums .

I have a standard sky box in my lounge with 2 RF aerial outlets via an amplifier/splitter (1 to a bedroom, 1 to a family room). In both additional rooms I have a 'sky eye' which allows the changing of channel in either room, this has always worked fine as the two additional TV's are standard.
I have since purchased an LCD TV for my family room but the picture is often distorted by the appearance of ghosting/dragging lines when characters move. I have tried an attenuator to weaken the RF aerial signal and the addition of another booster but neither seems to improve the picture. Any ideas on how to achieve a clear picture - would the answer be an AV wireless signal sender which apparently transmits through wall etc.

I listen to English, Chinese, Korean and Japanese mp3/wma songs. But I'm frustrated that my $50 Sandisk Sansa player can display all my song info, and yet nothing in the car (that I know of) will do it. Besides having to fly to Hong Kong or trying to get someone to send me one from there, where can I buy a car stereo that is able to do this in the US?

I just recently bought a yamaha yht-170 but havnt hooked it up yet. I just found an ONKYO HTS680 for about 70 more dollars though. Would it be worth it returning the yamaha and getting the onkyo? I am not extremely into home theater so im not looking for what has better sound qualitly, just as long as its good. I usually have friends over and we put the music vifeo channel on so what would have better and louder bass?? Thank you,
Justin

I recently saw the new LG Chocolate Mint Blue on verizonwireless.com.... I've looked, but all I can find is the price with a new 2 year contract. I already have a contract, so I'm looking for the price it would cost without getting a new contract. Any help? x] Also, does anyone know of any sites where I could find one to buy, besides verizon? Thanks. =]

ISO (which is from 100 to 1250)
Burst (H, L and Infinity)
Slow Shutter (1/8- to 1-)
AutoBracket

Also, I have options like Macro, Normal Picture, Intelligent ISO, and Scene Mode. So how can I make optimum use of these...

And how can I set these options so I get the best pictures? (I have a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX30)
Help.

Clueless.

I want to buy a new cell phone off ebay, but I'm unsure if I can use it to replace my current cell phone that's under a Telus plan. Will they let me switch phones, even though I did not purchase it from them?

I want to play a British game on a NA PS2 with a NA TV.

I heard that regions codes are different than the NSTC & PAL distinction...

So, if I want to play a PAL game I'll need an PAL -> NSTC adaptor, a TV with a vertical hold, a mod chip or boot disk for the region.

Can anyone confirm from experience?

Thanks!
