    Espresso maker question

    I did a little more researching on coffeegeek and wholelattelove and decided that eventhough i want the silvia for its brass boiler that has huge capacity, i will stick with the gaggia from costco just for the return policy and it's also $250 cheaper.

    Q for those with EVDO service for their computers

    don't worry about the 230k setting on your PC. it doesn't affect the speed of your card. I've got Sprint's Novatel S720 and i've seen speeds ranging from 400kbps to 1.3Mbps downloads. Uploads speeds are in the 300 - 400kbps. But this also depends on network loading, you may be at a high...

    YACT: Recommend me an old (1970-1980) car as a second car.

    Something that's below 10K. I did look at a 1976 Porsche 911 Targe that looks sweet. Corvette's are nice too.

    Need Digital Camera recommendations

    www.costco.com has a Panasonic Lumix LZ2 for 149. I read the reviews on dpreview.com and saw that it had better picture quality than the CanonSD500. And for 149.99 from Costco, you can't beat it. It has 6xOptical Zoom and 5MP.

    What's the Best Cell Phone Carrier

    Coming from VZW, you have been accustomed to the CDMA quality, switch to GSM and you could be dropping because of coverage, interference, capacity.. and the list goes on. Sprint = VZW. I would stick to either one of them.. If your friends say they have crappy service with Sprint they...

    Sirius or XM

    I like the latest rock music, Chevelle, Shinedown, Perfect Circle and i also like the good old stuff. Love the new Roady2 for XM but i think XM lacks in rock. They need to add a hard rock station or i might go to Sirius. Wish they had a good tuner for Sirius.
