Portable Carry
Is a 15.4 inch widescreen laptop portable enough to carry around a lot or should i get a 14.1 inch?

I am going into high school and am looking to spend 1,000 dollars from graduation/b-day/christmas $$$

If you’re carrying it around lot go for the 14.1 inch. 15.1 can be a bit heavier and bulky. When you buy, go to Dell.com you can get a great laptop with lots of goodies for under $1000. You start off with a basic model and then customize it as you go. They also have some great discounts on select new models. I bought my Dell Inspiron 1501 with a dual core processor, 2GB Ram, 256 MB Graphics card and 8 x DVD Burner for $849 after discount. You can also pick between Vista or XP for the OS.

Portable DVD Player Buying Guide

Portable DVD Players are becoming very popular these days because they give you the ability to take all of your favorite movies, music, and pictures while you’re on the go. With a Portable DVD Player you’ll never have to be stuck in a car, airplane, or hotel room bored again!

It’s important that you know what you will be using your Portable DVD Player for before you buy it so that your all of your needs are met. Many people buy Portable DVD Players based on a single attribute, such as the screen size of the player. Though buying the biggest screen size can enhance your viewing experience, what good is a Portable DVD Player if you can’t carry it around with ease?

Below you will find a few things that our product specialists recommend our customers to look for in before buying a Portable DVD Player.

Screen Size: The screen size of a Portable DVD Player can make a significant impact on the viewing experience. If the screen is too small you won’t be able to see details that might play a big role in the movie. On the other hand, if the screen is too big the DVD Player might loose its “portability”, making it difficult to carry around.

Battery Life: If you plan on using the Portable DVD Player for long periods of time without being on charge, you may want to consider the amount of playback time the battery provides. If the battery life isn’t longer than two hours, then you probably wont be able to watch a movie from beginning to end. Try to get a portable DVD player that can offer more than two hours of playback time (so it lasts longer than the length of an average movie).

Disc Compatibility: You may want to consider the types of discs that the Portable DVD Player is compatible with before making your purchasing decision. For example, if you want to burn DVD’s from your computer, make sure that the Portable DVD Player can play the DVD-R or DVD-RW formats.

Portability: You may want to consider how “Portable” the DVD Player is before making a purchasing decision. If the DVD Player is too big and bulky, it might be difficult for you to carry around. Though as technology advances, even Portable DVD Players with large screen sizes are becoming extremely compact.

Included Accessories: The accessories that come with the Portable DVD Player should have a big impact on your purchasing decision. If you find a Portable DVD Player at a great price, but lacks many of the accessories that other Portable DVD Players come with you might just end up having to pay more in the long run. Consider accessories such as AC/DC Adapters, Remote Controls, AV Cables, S-Video Cables, Car Adapters, Car Mounts, Headphones, etc.

Definitions:

AC Adapter: An external power supply for your camera or other electronic device that converts AC (alternating current) from a wall plug to DC (direct current). Some AC adapters also double as rechargers.

AV Cables: Audio and Video Cables, which transfer the audio and video information from one electronic device to another.

S-Video (Separated Video): An analog video signal that carries the video data as two separate signals.

What are the best portable speakers for the iPod Mini?

I want speakers to play my iPod mini. They need to be lightweight and portable so i can carry them around like when i go camping or on trips with my friends. They should be able to go pretty loud, and have pretty good sound quality (its okay if the sound quailty isnt super great, but it needs to be pretty good). Also they should last for as long as possible.

Desperation: Sounds like the ticket for you is the sonic i-fusion. Sound quality with great portability. You can store your ipod in it with a set of headphones. It can be plugged into the wall, charges from the wall with 15 hours of playing time afterwards. And it is totally compact. Then if you so desire you can pick up an apple ipod universal remote for it if you like that as a feature. Circuit City is a great source with Amazon.com or Ebay as alternatives for purchasing. Altec Lansing’s IM3C & IM9 can also be great alternatives as battery sources if you want that.

Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort. There’s considerable variety here; the heavy progressive-rock of “I Am I” and the ballad “Bridge” were hit singles, but there’s also the funk-inflected “Disconnected”, the edgy, spooky “Lady Jane”, and the piano-and-vocals “Someone Else?”. The title track is probably the stronge…
