@hardeho: It's definitely possible, but in this case they have a Chase savings as well. Ah, well... I'm sure it's just a fake, representative account for display purposes. Cheers!

It's definitely a bit discomforting to know so many people can see us plainly when we're trying to catch a flight... but I'm not much bothered by it. So long as no-one makes me strip I'm not going to let someone I'm unlikely to see much again, if ever, ruin my day.

@JeremytheIndian: It's definitely a very worthy device. I'm just keen on the improved browser and UI that the Nook Color is packing... either one would be a fine ereader, though. Cheers!

@br3wsky: As I mentioned in the other comment, it's the 46EX7. I prefer the 46EX5, but one thing to consider with both sets... the input lag is not minimal. It's definitely manageable and hasn't interfered with my gaming at all, but if you're the sort who's deeply concerned with it, proceed with caution. AVSForum…

@lonemoose: It's the 46EX7. It's an OK model, but it was being badly outsold by the 46EX5 which is not an LED-lit panel (but is in nearly every other regard identical, they sharing the same housing, bezel, speakers, and so forth The internet-enabled 46EX6 does as well). Earlier in the year Sony actually temporarily…

I'm just not seeing anything great. I'm not in the market for a lower-end, bargain HDTV (I've got a much-better-than-any-of-these-models Bravia EX5, so I'm set for a few years) and none of the actual game deals are real compelling. Why are people willing to risk the cold and the crowds to get their hands on this…

@UnknownCorpse: Yeah... there are a couple of those tricks. It's just unfortunate that without using them the game is essentially broken.

Those aren't great deals. I'll be passing GameStop by on my holiday shopping spree... it's like they're resigned to not-competing with other, agressive retailers (not to mention the deal you'll find online).

@Cobaltios: The Witcher 2 is an RPG.

@Mister_CrazyGuy: Yeah, last year's holiday sales were ridiculous. My wallet is still bruised from that... and don't get me started on the Perils of Summer sale. I added so many things to my backlog that I doubt I'll ever crawl out of it.

@Boibi: Mercs 2 is just terrible. It's all resource management and no fun. I don't know why Pandemic tried to market that game as a free-for-all, but it's practically a spreadsheet simulator.

@Gregsvo: I'm less confused by them possessing $19,000 than I am by the fact they have nineteen times as much money in checking as they do in savings.

@JeremytheIndian: With all due respect, I disagree. In roughly the same price range I'd rather grab a Kindle... the Nook Color is my target of choice, though, because it would more or less fit the needs I have for a very simple tablet.

@beowulf716: It's a nice price, but it's very hard to justify the Nook with the color model coming out...

@dotsync: I wouldn't say iOS is too glittery... but I do think iOS buries way too much information within a labyrinth of menus. It took me a while, but I think I've got a really functional Froyo setup going now.

I like Steve Wiebe— admittedly it's very hard not to like anyone who's managed to take Billy Mitchell down a peg— but I'm always amused that he looks like a fat Major Nelson.

@dotsync: I've tried MIUI and I actually walked away— it's too much eye candy for me. I prefer a heavily customised Fresh ROM, or pretty much standard Myn's Warm Treat... I just hope Cyanogen get the WiMax radio finished soon. I know they're working hard on it.

@az060693: Yeah, but my point is that the Galaxy Tab, by all accounts, chugs horribly when it encounters Flash content... it's not at all optimised for it like the Evo, Droid X, or even the proper Galaxy S phones (save for the supposedly optimised Nexus S). And really, at 7" (against 10" for the iPad), the Galaxy Tab…

@Helba: Hubris is Humorous.: Don't know if I agree. I'm not a huge fan of the iPad— wish it could do more, really— but I think the Galaxy Tab is all hype and no substance. Give me a proper tablet like the Adam or such, and I'd jump. Not going to pay the slightly ridiculous on-contract prices for the Galaxy Tab when…

This is an absolutely random place to find an iPad. And yeah, it's hellaciously cheap. Kudos to TJMaxx and Marshall's for the score.
