There are some region free firmwares out there that work with Pioneer drives, I don't know about other brands.

Here is a good tripod guide: http://www.bythom.com/support.htm
A month ago I picked up a Gitzo GT-2531 (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/567542-REG/Gitzo_GT2531_GT_2531_Mountaineer_6X_Carbon.html) from B&H Photo and Video and am very happy with it. I also considered Induro and Manfrotto tripods, but nothing came close to the Gitzo in terms of specs for the money. So far I have taken it on one trip to the Collegiate Peaks (https://picasaweb.google.com/jabbott0/StElmoAndTheCollegiatePeaks?authkey=Gv1sRgCLz9scjryrjcSg#) in Colorado. It has also proven to be very good for long exposures (http://monogon.org/gfx/iss.html). I am using it with a Slik panhead that I plan to replace someday with a Really Right Stuff BH-40. The tripod is very solid compared to everything I've used before. I honestly don't think I will ever need anything else, as long as this one doesn't break.
Phrasikleia was the starter of the Let's Talk Tripods thread, and she unfortunately ended up with a Gitzo GT-1932 (series 1) that broke after one year. Here (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1085825) is another thread that has follow-up information from her and others. She ended up getting a GT-2531 (series 2) as well to replace it.
Gitzo just ended an $80 rebate program for a many of their tripods, including the GT-2531... if you are looking for the best deal on a new one, you may have to wait until they have another rebate program. I'm not sure how often they do these however.

Yeah, for sure...any chance you can make it to the Northbrook Court store? if not.. I' could probably get to the Woodfield store. Either way, I can't wait to get my hands on that puppy.

someone gave me this theory one time, I don't buy it. I can't imagine that you aerodynamics would be afected by opening the SIDE windows. There is no air that flys into it (maybe something to do with pressure flowing across it), but I can't imagne that it would be a big deal. I would assume, certainly not as much of a mileage user as an air conditioning system would be.
Without a doubt, opening your side windows creates drag. It disrupts the flow of air around the vehicle. Any disruption like that can create drag. A/C is pretty efficient now, so there is not a big benefit to turning it off.
The best benefit to fuel economy is to slow down. I read somewhere that you gain 10-15% fuel economy buy driving 60mph instead of 70mph.

I have a general rule... If I can't figure out what the site is for/about in under 30 seconds, I close the window or go back to where I came from.
I'm not wasting my time on pretty if there is no usability/understandability.

Hi All,
Anyone seen this before? Time machine is a complete and utter PAIN IN THE REAR!
I have several problems with it:
1) why isn't mail time machine enabled?
2) why isn't itunes time machine enabled?
3) why isn't iPhoto time machine enabled?
Half a$$ed implementation if you ask me, but anyway.
I have a new problem, everytime my mac backups I get a non removable floating finder window showing me the progress.... I DONT CARE, i can't get rid of it, no system prefs that i've found can get rid of it, and it's REALLY annoying, like MS Office 97 Paper clip annoying!
Anyone else come across this? i've tried googling and searching the forums but 'Time Machine Finder Window' returns lot about enabling Time Machine on Windows! :)
Thanks!

Fixed :p
I'm not gonna bother posting my full genre list, as there are nearly 200 different ones in my iTunes (including different types of metal, different eras and types of "classical", and some made-up ones).

Every Friday, Engadgetmobile.com posts the most recent FCC filings for wireless phones. Until something like an iPhone comes through the FCC, it won't happen in the United States. I imagine that other countries have similar regulatory comittees with similar public filings. Wanna find the iPhone? Keep your eyes peeled there.
Consequently, I'm not sure how His Steveness will be able to keep this thing a secret since FCC filings are public. Most likely, it'll be filed under Apple, and we'll all know about it before it's formally introduced. Or else it'll be filed under the name of another manufacturer, in an attempt to keep it secret. Either way, anyone watching the FCC filings like a hawk should be able to spot anything even remotely Appleish in terms of it's design aesthetic.
It doesn't have to go through the FCC until it's ready to be produced. If Apple wants to keep it secret, they can announce it @ MacWorld and release it a couple of months later.

That eMac will be great, the faster hard drive will help it eat your iBook for breakfast speed wise.
A faster Hard Drive really does that much? Interesting. Thanks

Adding TEXT to printed form-
This is my first query- hope I am in the 'right' place ;)
I have several forms to fill in - Husband just admitted to Rest Home :(
I wish to scan form and then add text - tried in iphoto - lovely copy but can't edit.
This is my first Mac - after years of PC. Do I need to 'buy' a special programme?
grateful thanks to all

I'm trying queensgate. They've got 20 or so of the black 32GB and about 10 of the white 32GB. (Thats all I asked, sorry!)
They're not expecting much demand in comparison to last years as they're not offering any early upgrades. :P

I had not seen this one so thank you for suggesting it. I may get it for exactly what it is, a reminder program. I read the website and the FAQ and they clearly state they will not make it into a to do list so I am still looking for that. But I used to use a shareware program on my mac called 'reminder pro' and I loved it for those things you don't want to forget like 'pay property taxes' which just happens to need to happen by Saturday here. :rolleyes:
I'll check back for any other suggestions.
Thanks again.
Have you checked out "Due"?

I've got a 5th generation Nano (and a mint 1st gen which still works a treat).
I love the scroll wheel, as it's perfect for operating in your pocket. Also the 5th gen has the video camera and video playback. OK it's not the most amazing video camera, but it's perfectly adequate for YouTube.
Unfortunately Apple are expected to update their products regularly, and the 5th gen was pretty much optimised, so they had to resort to a radical redesign.

Count me in! I'm still thinking about what Apple store to head to though, I usually try to avoid the Fashion Valley one because it's always so crowded there. I'll probably end up a Fashion though. I'll be in line by 3 or 4 depending on how long the line is. :)
64GB 3G iPad here I come.
