Rand and other posters, Everyone may be aware of it but Kitco offers a free email service providing updates of the price of Silver. This allows you to keep up with what is going on without surfing the net all day. You decide what price change is significant to you and they will send you an email whenever such a change occurs. To subscribe to the service, go to their Home Page and click "Market Update and Current History" then click "get Kitco price updates direct to you via email". Larry Smith

Thanks, Larry. Indeed, I check out his Global Market View and other web site info frequently. Photography is one of my hobbies, and I myself think it'll be a long time before digital can match or exceed the resolution of today's finest 35mm films and 35mm cameras for the same price. On the other hand, most consumers are not too concerned about picture quality and purchase inexpensive films and point and shoot cameras. APS (they call it 24mm as well) uses film that's only about 1/2 the surface area of 35mm film, and it's starting to become popular. Currently, HP has placed ads in Popular Photo touting a digital camera-printer system for home use and includes an actual print. The picture quality resembles that of current polaroid instant cameras, but I expect improvements over time. But digital certainly won't replace film by 2003, which is when Marty believes PMs will make their highs for this cycle. Regards, Rand
