    USB Scale - Weighs Up to 11 Pounds or 5kG - $25. at the Shack

    Thanks for this nice post OP. An atomic clock watch can usually be told to reset itself anytime you are worried about it's accuracy. The manufacturers don't have to use accurate movements to make these watches, so they should be cheap. My next watch will be one of these. You can get a Casio...

    Prepaid Cellphone Deals

    No news, but let's keep it alive. There's lots of good info here. After reading about other people's complaints about STI phones, and their 4 month rebate waiting period, I'm leaning toward Virgin Mobile or T-Mobile-To-Go.

    Sandisk 512 mb Mini-Cruzer USB drive $17.95 AR w/free ship

    NO. It's $17.95 after a $15 Sandisk rebate and a $7 Buy.com rebate. It's the $7 buy.com rebate that worries me.

    Free IM, Voip from Google: google talk.

    Skype has a nice IM feature that allows you to change your status to "invisible". No one can tell if you're online, but they can still send you messages and you can respond. That's the ONLY thing I like about Skype IM. Do you know if any other IM clients have that feature?

    Better take advantage of Dell deals while they last...

    If Dell wants to continue selling a wide range of products, they need market share. Low prices are the only way to get it. Otherwise they will be forgotten like so many other dot coms.

    You can format any drive to FAT or NTFS. Use Quick Format to get it done fast. With FAT, you will need to use smaller partitions, or you will be squandering space with large cluster sizes.
