    Video Editing Codecs

    i tried using the divx 6.1 codec and the video wouldn't work. i would export it compressing it w/ that and the first title would work, and then it would just smear and no go after that =-\

    Logitech Keyboard $3.99 + shipping

    well I am typing on the keyboard right now and I love it. I just upgraded from my MX Duo because it was literally falling apart. for $11, you cannot get better. I returned my LX500 and Microsoft Digial Media Pro (or something like that) that were all WAY more expensive. Definitely is a good deal!
