I'm looking at picking up a Gigaset 2415 or the Panasonic Gigarange Extreme SST CID/Answering machine. There's a substancial difference in price between the two (about $75). I've heard some bad comments on the Panasonic, like that it's SST features aren't even secure and it doesn't even send...

The maxtor is the fastest STR (throughput) of any ATA/100 drives, but the IBM 75GXP still beats it in any access speed pattern, which actually determines the feel of your drive 99% of the time.

Don't pick based on the phone, picked based on the coverage, which is more important to 99.9% of the people. The 8290 is a GSM1900 phone, and the coverage for that network is extremely limited when compared to the TDMA 8260. People like VoiceStream, PacBell, and Nevada Bell sell the 8290...

For anyone who cares, The 8290 is the GSM version of the 8260. The 8890 is the GSM version of the 8860. The 8890 is not meant to be compared to the 8260. They are different series. Keep the 88xx and 82xx to themselves. As far as the 8860 vs 8260, the 8260 is FAR superior in everything...

To clear up any confusion, if we're talking US based carriers (primarily ATT here) then the following phones ONLY can use logos: 5160i 5165 6160m 8260 7160(when released) The 5100 and 6100's have a cable available. The 8260 is done via e-mail as there is no cable yet. The 7160 would use the...

Out of the box, the C20 isn't network ready. The NC20 >IS<. That's why the NC20 is $500 and the C20 is $150 (as well as the NC20 has 24megs of RAM, the C20 only 8megs of RAM). Other then that, C20 and NC20 are identical.

The C20 is a nice little printer, but it DOES NOT go for $450. I don't know what's up with those prices. Only thing I can sayis people are mixing their pricing with the NC20 which is a 24MB Networked version of the C20 (via Ethernet). The C20 can be had for $117 here...

The 3Com HomeConnect, which is a Vista Imaging cam (www.vistaimaging.com) DOES true 640x480 and the 3Com HomeConnect is probably the best CCD webcam out there, but it does cost you $120(-20 rebate). I'm buying a QC Pro USB frm these people for my g/f to see how well the Logitech compares, but...

WiRED sent me a free CueCat jobbie and I messed around with it. It actualls has some stuff in their DB in reference to magazines and what not. And if a code isnt in the DB, you provide info on it and they'll probably add it. The idea is to get everyone to use one (hence it being free) and...
