What's great about it: Explosive action with a real storyline
What's not so great: Nothing
People who said there are not enough joker extras, I hope you know and understand WHY.. A lot of those extras are made after filming.

What's great about it: price
What's not so great: quality
Ok, someone commented about it mixing stations, I dont know if you can really blame that on this. That person lived in orange country cali, where the stations are close and in high numbers.
Anyway, this dynex one does the job but it doesnt sound as good as my old belkin, I will be returning it and forking out some more dough for a different one.
The price was great, and most people probably wouldn't even notice the quality,it depends on the car speakers and car stereo/radio quality.

What's great about it: Sounds great
What's not so great: Careful, this may not be for you!
A lot of people do not understand that mics need to be preamped, if you use a converter to turn it into a headphone jack, it wont work with a computer mic input. You need a mixer with phantom power or a PA etc... With that said, this mic is a great value. Its sturdy, sensitive yet can take overpowering noise without distorting. I haven't gotten to compare this to the other samson mics, but I would say this line could easily be used professionally. If you want to use this on a computer, consider the M-audio products with USB output that Best Buy sells.

What's great about it: Handy for real drumset
What's not so great: none
I dont understand why this is on here, but I have a real drumset, so with a purpose this is a great bag to keep it all organized. I dont think people have multiple sets of sticks for rockband, but you never know! Its very durable, and will last for many years to come.

What's great about it: Powerful at grabbing grease and dust/dirt particles
What's not so great: Left a smear on one screen
This product has worked beautifully on my laptop, desktop screen and TV. It has failed me once, on a friends older laptop without that gloss coating. After cleaning I could not get a streak free shine no matter how much a buffed it. It looked worse than before!! I had to take a tissue afterwards to get it clean. otherwise, the cloth it comes with feels soft, yet when rubbed against the skin it grips and grabs! Its highly effective at grabbing stuck on dirt so you dont have to use your fingernails. Only complaint about this package is it doesn't come with something small to clean the corners of a screen.

What's great about it: ITs great that they released this!
What's not so great: Price?
Im just glad they decided to release some of the songs for the PS2 owners out there. The price is reasonable considering there is no other way for us to get new content. It will definitly help hold me over till rock band 2 comes out.

What's great about it: Sound
What's not so great: cannot take advertised wattage
I think it might be that I have an old receiver, but I cannot turn it up past 30% on a 100watt system. The woofers move easily and a lot, but this set will shake your walls and made a picture fall off the wall in my home. Normal bass, these are great at, too low and they wont respond as well. their BIGGEST weakness is actually the lack of treble. I replaced a set of philips speakers with these and I miss the highs that dont exist on the sony pair. If you want a full range of sound look elsewhere, or buy a second set to go with these.

This guy I can tell is underpowered for the software it runs. It does what it needs to, it just isnt the smoothest out there. Garmins are much harder to update than the Tom Toms, but Garmin has much better tech support.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl - Nintendo Wii
They may look cute, but there's nothing nice about the characters in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. This fighting frenzy will have you inflicting painful KO's on familiar opponents you thought were your friends. Take your frustrations out on Link, Mario and other characters from throughout the gaming world. Shoot spaceships out of the sky in the Lylat System from the Star Fox games and deal out killer blows in Rumble Falls based on the look and feel of Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat.Hit opponent after opponent to build up your damage meter, then knock your enemies clear off the screen. Rely on weapons that are silly but very effective, such as banana peels, pitfalls, gooey bombs and many more. Hurl old-school crates and barrels or select from Assist Trophies and Poke Balls to strike fear in the hearts of your foes. Combine Standard, Strong and Smash attacks to bash your way to victory. There are so many ways to smash, you'll get lost in the melees for hours on end.
Finally!

Canon - 31 Standard Capacity - Color (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow) Ink Cartridge - Multicolor
Canon has poured all the Know How of its extraordinary history of developing innovative office machines into each of its copiers, printers, and networked office systems. The same superiority of design and manufacture goes into all of the Canon-branded consumable imaging supplies and parts for this equipment. Naturally, no one makes better parts and supplies for Canon products than Canon. Using genuine Canon parts and supplies is your best insurance against equipment damage, and possibly voiding your equipment warranty.

What's great about it: Quality
What's not so great: Price per ink
THis is the stock cartridge in the IP1800, however even though it says high yield, this is the half cartridge.
The 41 is the full size which costs only a few collars more for much more ink. I got about 10 photos worth on my 31 but my 41 in my ip1800 has done well over 15 and is still half full.

Gibhunter's Questions
Gibhunter has not submitted any questions.
Do you service and clean Canon EOS Rebel 35mm cameras?
If you bought your camera at a best buy and purchased black tie protection you can have your local geek squad send it out for cleaning. Expect 2-4 weeks turn around time at this time of year (which may not be convenient for xmas).
I recommend a lens cleaning kit to use in the meantime. Best buy carries the monster LCD cleaning kit, the cloth would be great for the lenses and the LCD. The liquid is safe on glass. The microfiber cloth grabs stuff of my screens much easier than rubbing with a cotton cloth.

advice on what to buy
i want a digital camera that can be used for outdoor activities such as hunting and snowboarding, something durable, waterproof and has a clear long distance shot and good in low light (hunting is around dusk and dawn)
I havent come across a waterproof camera with a large enough lens to do well in low light. I have 2 models for you to consider though,
1. Panasonic DMC-TS1 - waterproof/shockproof 12MP and DOES 720p HD video.
2.Olympus - Stylus Tough 8000 12MP camera.
The panasonic will blow away the olympus in video quality and it also has a larger pens to collect more light. The panasonic also has 4.6x Optical zoom vs. 3.6, so long distance shots will be clearer.
I would say both are poor choices for low light, your best option is a D-SLR camera, they are sensitive to low light and can zoom much farther with telephoto lenses, however they are expensive and are not waterproof.

Which digital cameras do you carry that are both waterproof and shock resistent?
Olympus makes the best water/shock proof cameras that best buy sells. I recently bought a panasonic DMC-TS1 which also takes 720p HD video and is shock/waterproof, best buy might carry it soon as it was just released.

which brand is considered the "best"?
Sony has always put great lenses in their cameras. I like kodak also though. No brand is the best though, all the companies make a low end camera and a nice camera. Google your favorites and check out others reviews (youtube the model too for video reviews) and narrow it down!

does the xbox 360 arcade have enough memory
for online
it has 256Mb which is just enough memory for the new and large xbox update some save games and maybe an arcade game.
You can play online, but dont expect to be able to stream netflix or rent movies. It really would be worth the extra money to get one with a hard drive.

do i need a modem or a router to use go online?
you need a high speed internet connection first.
If you are the only one who needs internet access, plug the xbox directly in with the provided cable. If you want to share access with another computer you need a router.
If you want to be wireless, you need a wireless router AND a wireless access point for the xbox.

which GPS unit tells the names of lakes and streams
I am pretty certain the Garmin nuvi 200 will IF and only IF you purchase the topo-map software which is sold separate from the device.
I dont know of any that come with that software out of box.
There are the hand held (not for car) GPS devices also, they might have that instead of roads installed out of box.

What does Mapping Software do for you? Can i download a trip and plug it to the GPS instead of paying for map updates?
You should re-ask this question and specify if this is a tom tom or garmin or something else becasue it is different.
As far as my understanding goes, Tom Toms you can plug in and run an updater from the computer. (the updater us normally found on the tom tom accessed through the PC in "My Computer" )
Garmin, you will need to buy Streets 2009 for upgrading the maps. Its a bit more complicated, but if you get lost Geek Squad can do it for you. For some people $30 or so is worth the trouble saved. But it might go smooth for you. It took me a few tries to figure it all out.
Good luck! Happy Driving!
