OT Paul and thread, if you like hardware gadgets, I found a really nifty phone.

It's made out of clear plastic so you can see all of the components on the inside - capacitors, OpAmps, resistors, etc.

And you can see the PCB !!! Neat!

Great way for kids to have visual access to see what parts do what. It's really neat. It also has a bright color on the ear piece to make it appealing for kids.

It's great for adults too - I bought one : ) I found it at Walgreens for $11.99. I had a plastic play phone when I was a kid which was a lot of fun - it sort of reminded me of that. I'm going to bring this phone into work and show my colleagues this new gadget.

Best, Amy J

>>These seem to be the best TV's with the largest picture that I can find.

our 35" xbr is great. not as flat as the wega but close. i predict you will be buying it soon. here in socal, pacific sales were selling the 36" wega for 1999 about four months ago. enjoy.

i saw great game at rose bowl saturday with my two daughters. front row sideline seats on the end where the penalty kicks decided the outcome.

Was in Best Buy today and noticed the best picture was on a $900 35" Sony. Next best picture was on another Sony, I think a couple hundred less.

I don't care for the projection TV either, get a little off center and you can't see the show.
