Hi All,

I have a Canon PowerShot S1 IS. I happened to drop it on floor (in my defence, on a soft floor :-)).

Now it does not work anymore. When i switch it on, it shows the blank screen. If I take a photo, it captures the image all blank (black). So basically I can’t take any photos anymore.

Has anybody faced such problem; any remedies? Or is it the same known issue of CCD? http://www.canon-asia.com/index.jsp?fuseaction=image-phenomena_notice

Additional Information: All other functions like erase, etc. do work well and appear properly on the screen. I also can see the Canon logo when I turn on the camera. I guess that means that the LCD display is working properly.

Canon offers digital cameras such as the EOS 5D, my question is, why have a single lens reflex when there is no film present?. Secondly, is there features such as X-synch mode, B=bulb mode or multiframe mode with a digital camera?.
Lastly, a brief explanation on megapixels.

I thank all for your time and interest.

Credentials are:

1: 2 medium format cameras owned
2: Canon Elan
3: Out of date, and I'm 28 (need some info).
3: Trying to catch up; out of date obviously.

I have both an ps3 and 360. I like them both. But I've noticed a tread that the same 360 games get better rating then PS3 games. When will the PS3 games get better. Haze and Unreal 3 looks awsome on PS3 but I just found out that its coming out on 360...should I just wait for it on the xbox?

I am talking of course of electronic bugs that transmit audio surveillance. What do they look like typically? How can you find them if they are placed in something you own or where you live? If someone's car is bugged where would you look to see where the bug is located? Would the bug be connected to the car battery or would it be independent of any wiring from the car's electronic interface itself? Without expensive equipment how would I find these devices?

I'm interested in knowing whether speakers in 1987 are really better than today's typical sony panasonic logitech speakers. By 1987 I mean a top of the line CD Audio player that's pretty big and bulky and speakers that cost $10,000 or more. By today I mean the speaker systems you buy at BestBuy for less than $500.

My question has to do with curiosity. Back in the 80s people were using audio cassette tape. Charlie Sheen's character in the 1987 movie Wall Street had a CD player in his pad.

Are we really lucky now? Any mp3 player (of today) is better than cassette (of yore), but what about 1987 CD audio system with the best speakers of its time?

I received an iTouch today as a gift. It has 8 gig, my current iPod works flawlessly and hold 30 gigs, plus my music already takes up 9 gigs. On Target's website, it says that with a receipt I can get store credit. I'm sorry, but I don't want to spend $300 at Target. I would prefer the cash. I can't get the person to return the iTouch and so I have to return it myself?!!? Talk to management? I'd prefer cash or maybe a $100 store credit, $200 cash. Can I barter? Please help me!?!?!!?

Right now I use prepay and I'm getting sick of it. I need a really good plan that cost no more than $50 a month. I live in Alabama. I text a lot and have friends with long distant phone numbers. Any good deals? I've tried looking online and stuff but I can't find anything. Any information with the source would be awesome but you don't have to.

i just bought a VGA cable so i could hook up my 360 to my monitor. everything was fine hooking it up to the monitor it's just that i can't hook up the sound. i bought the Microsoft VGA cable, so it came with the jack to plug the red and white wires into. the only thing is that i can' t plug the jack into the back of my speakers because theres know where to plug it in and i wanted to plug the jack into my sound card, but i don't which color to plug it into. i have the colors pink, green, light blue, yellow, and black. where would i plug the jack into or should i just buy different speakers?

I know that Metal Gear Solid 4 and GTA 4 are scheduled to come out within the same time frame and not on the same day, but if GTA 4 and Metal Gear Solid 4 came out on the same day and you only had enough money in your wallet to buy one of the games which game would you buy?

It would be a hard decision for me, but even though I've already pre-ordered the Special Edition GTA 4, I would pick-up Metal Gear Solid 4 because it's a PS3 exclusive and it's probably the most anticipated PS3 game of 2008. Which one would you buy first?
