    New $20 off $50 @ Staples.com

    << You get free shipping if your order is $50 before coupons >> True. I just hope it's not some computer mix-up what I believe Staples is famous for. I just paid $39.95 for the VTech 900MHz Cordless Phone, Model 1922 (comes with $20 rebate, thanks galionman!), with free shipping!

    Domains: $8.95 down to $6.95/year for 10 years at Go Daddy

    I don't understand why you'd wnat to pay a $49 set-up fee. Do you have any idea how much it costs these companies to set up hosting for you? About $1, max! I just registred a domain with Joker.com for 12 Euros per year, about 10 bucks. If you're looking for a really cheap host...

    Mods, can we have a thread about the AccessMicro deal to find out what's going on with it??

    << When are they going to cancel our orders? >> They are not going to cancel your order. They just won't ship you anything and your cc won't be charged, but they won't officially cancel your order. That's my experience with AccessMicro.

    Free Hangover Relief

    My brother and I both have extremely bad hangovers, must be something genetic. What works best for me is: - when you get home, take 2 tablets of Alka Seltzer - drink at least 5 glasses of water and go to bed - wake up, pee and take another 2 tablets of Alka Seltzer McDonalds and Burger King...

    HOT! $100 Free Bonus from WingspanBank.com

    So... this is not a good deal anymore?!? Wingspanbank.com has had deals like this for years now. Any idea when they will come up with a similar deal? Other online banks OK too.

    MCI $150 Giftcertificate

    Don't worry, you'll probably get in tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. It took them 2 weeks to send me mine, and then another week and a half to send the correct welcome package (they 'accidently' signed me up for Residential LD after I explicitly said Small Business about 34 times.

    PM Deal HandSpring Visor $110

    2KooL, would you be so kind to explain to me how you managed to get a Handspring Prism from Staples for only $120 ??? Do you have a $349 off $469 coupon? I don't even see it in stock, but maybe that's just because they don't have it where I live (53703).

    PM Deal HandSpring Visor $110

    Thanks for the URL. Yes, the Palm OS will be upgradeable through Springboard Modules, but once you take out that module to insert your indispensable GPS module, you loose your OS and are back to OS 3.1. And patches are just patches, not a complete upgrade. But that?s basically what you just...

    PM Deal HandSpring Visor $110

    Thank you for your reply av1998, but you're wrong about the Visor Deluxe: it's OS is NOT upgradable. You can hack it, and apply patches etc., but you can't flash the ROM, so you're stuck with OS 3.1 forever. The Palm IIIxe however, is upgradable by flashing the 2MB ROM. What did you mean by...

    PM Deal HandSpring Visor $110

    I totally agree with you that expandability is the issue here, but unfortunately we have to make a choice between 2 different kinds of expandability: 1) Palm IIIxe's OS is upgradable 2) Visor Deluxe has slot for Springboard Modules Which of these features do you consider to be the most valuable?
