As mentioned below, the Ski Boy and I were at CompUSA this morning. After we returned our Wireless Bridge, Peter made the mistake (not just a mistake but a BIG mistake) of asking if CompUSA might have the Sony Clie PEG-NX70V - the Slat Rat's dream PDA. CompUSA did have one left and guess who walked out with it?! That's right, a very happy Slat Rat. What a great Valentine's Day present from the Ski Boy!

So my little Clie is upstairs charging up as I type. The dream PDA comes with following features:

  • PalmOS 5.0.
  • 802.11b wireless card slot (I need to order the card)
  • A 310K pixel camera (how James Bond cool!)
  • An MP3 player.
  • A built-in keyboard.
  • And it does video-clips.

I am sooooooooooo excited! I am such a geek! And the Ski Boy is the best Ski Boy in the whole wide world!

This morning, Peter and I were at CompUSA returning the now-no-longer-needed Wireless Bridge (we were going to use it for TiVo in conjunction with a USB-to-ethernet adapter and our wireless router but we solved our dial-up problems with the wireless modem jack instead).

Anyhoo, while the Ski Boy and I were in the Returns line, who should walk by but Dr. Wald (aka Dr L.). An Un-geek like Dr. L., should have a protective escort when they visit Uber-geek places like CompUSA. If they go in alone, they may not come alive.

Dr. Wald, by the way, here are some reviews and ratings of 3 megapixel digital cameras. That funny looking Fuji camera actually has a pretty decent rating. And here's what to look for when selecting a digital camera
