Will the ps3's @HOME add the ability to chat during online game play, when the game itself dose not have that feature? I am pondering this because of HOME they will have to have a server for it so I was wondering if it would let us chat online while playing. Its something I really want in my games. Idk what I am going to do if it in-fact does not. P.S. The Ps3 is the ONLY next-gen system I would own.

The max. manual exposure on the camera is 8 seconds. I would love to push that up to 30 seconds or more.
Is there any way possible (either software/firmware or hardware tweaking) to do this?
Please do not reply unless it can be done. Thanks.

have a 4g ipod mini. problem just recently.

what works:
the center button, and wheel scroll sensor.

what does not work:
the wheel buttons - menu, play, << and >>.

i can scroll and play songs using center button, change volume, but cant go "back" to the lists or menu because of those buttons not working.
should i open it up and see the problem. i've changed the battery last year.
if you say to exchange.. then how?

thanks for reading.

I've collected a bunch of lenses for my EOS 30D, but now I'm taking an intro photography class that works entirely in film. Will my lenses be backward compatible with a 35mm Canon Rebel?

Sales people claim that the RCA/phono cable labeled "audio" will not work for carrying video a very short distance (less than a foot). The "audio" cable will be used to interconnect two yellow-colored "video" RCA/phono cables. My concern is video picture quality will look much worse than if expensive cables labeled "video" are used.

Requirements:

1. Easy to use; hopefully fairly intuitive.

2. MUST take closeups, preferally 12" or closer.

3. Will do most things automatically if desired but does allow user to set certain functions such as flash (on or off), various simplified light settings (cloudy day, dark room, etc.).

4. Must have Shake Reduction or other feature which counteracts shaky hands.

5. Must not cost more than $150; closer to $100 would be better.

6. I am considering a Samsung S730. Anyone have any experience with this camera?

Also: How important is the number of megapixels? For the amateur photographer who takes primarily photos of family, vacation scenery, etc., what would be adequate and what would be overkill?

We have an older (1995 or so) Sony TV. Recently it has been getting more vibration with bass. Today there was a power surge and boom, no sound. Is it toast?

I was thinking of upgrading to the Palm Treo 680 but I have heard mixed reviews on it's performance. I heard that it is not uncommon for them to break down. Just wondering if anyone out there had one and can give there opinions.

I don't get why this happens, is this the electric company trying to play jokes?
Well this is the second time in a 6 day period this happened, the power went out. For no reason, it was not because of anything in the house, I don't know if anyone near by had the same problem. Then soon the power came back, I was relieved for 3 seconds, then it goes out, then on again. Then today at like 9:01pm, the power goes out, then a few minutes later, back on again, then out, then on, then out, then now fully on.What is wrong?
