I don't know if a gamming mouse would be helpful in that game or not--I simply don't have time for it. :cry: But I just found out that Microsoft just revealed their new mouse. And I found out my brother was one of the people working on it! He couldn't say before what he was working on because he sig...

It looks really nice, and would be convienant. However, the cost is extreemly high. You can get a top-of-the-line 30 gig MP3 player for that price and have change.

So you can turn, say, 100 pages at a time and then turn others more slowely? That would work for me, I think.

I looked into those. I really like the look, but not the price. As I understand it, there is no search ability which comes in handy with dictionaries and such. I also understand Amazon.com has one out, but I don't know the price or if it is any better. Do you know if you can download a dictionairy a...

I agree with thistlechick. Listening to the book is much the same. ...Unless you are only half listening while doing other things, in which case you don't get much. But generally reading and listening have the same effect. I like listening to a book, but in the end, curling up with a good book is th...

Here is a science question... or perhaps engineering.

Why don't they have the hydrogen cars-of-the-future people have been saying (for the past 20 years) are just around the corner?

Yes, but where would you find one?
I've only seen PDAs do that, and they are too small.

I am :shock: speechless.

This would be a wonderful thing.

I am sorry that I don't have time for a more detailed answer, but here goes. I have no desire to offend. Neither the cover or title of your book catch my attention. I often look at a title and picture, but usually go by reccommendations. If someone recommended it, I would probably read it. I actuall...

Which MP3 Player is the Best?

I am looking into purchasing a new MP3 player. I want one that is inexpensive, has easy-to-use controls, and has expandable memory--that is, it should have a slot for putting in an SD card or micro SD card.

Any suggestions?

We had some Italian dish I don't know the real name of (but it included good chicken) and some steamed veggies.

I'm not sure about that egg dish you mentioned. Not my cup of tea. :lol:
