    What is the best phone with wifi for $200?

    Have you looked at the g1? I think they are under $200 with a 2 year contract, and it meets all of your requirements. I've had mine for a couple of weeks and am very happy with it.

    Phone Financing?

    t-mobile is starting something up to finance phones. They aren't actually financing them, they will just spread the cost of the phone out over the next 3 months with no interest charges.

    GHIII Wireless Guitar X360

    Yeah, I used the rock band guitar for about 5 minutes before I switched back to the gh3 wireless guitar. Whenever someone else plays they always us the gh2 guitar. The rock band guitar just sits around collecting dust.

    dumb x360 question

    The older 360's do not have hdmi out. If its more than a few months old, it will be component only.

    New Gears Maps this Thursday

    500 points costs $6.25, so 800 points is $10. You can't really buy just 800 points, so it will cost you $12.50 then you'll have 200 points left over if you don't already have 300 in your account.

    XBOX 360 is toast. Anybody send one back here??

    I had a nov 2005 unit that died about a month ago. They will fix it and get it back to you pretty quickly. I think I received mine back about 10 days after shipping it out. You can get a 2 year warranty on the repaired console for $50

    Guitar Hero 2 patch causes problems

    It seems like everyone on the xbox forums is 10 years old. I can barely read those forums due to rampant stupidity. I got the patch and it hasn't caused me any problems yet. I can't see the thread from work, but when I saw it yesterday it looked like there were just a few reports of problems.

    Whats going on with the 360, why have I sent 20 back in the last 2 weeks?

    My console was out of warranty, so they did not drop a box off at my door. I was told not to use the original box, and that I was responsible for shipping costs. The numbers sound high, but Louisville is a big city. The UPC center nearest me is very inconveniently located. I always ship...

    I'd guess that a price drop will hit this fall in time for the holiday shopping season.

    Whats going on with the 360, why have I sent 20 back in the last 2 weeks?

    Louisville is a big city. It's in the top 20 or 30, population wise, in the country. He said he worked at a UPS Store, not at the distribution center. People bring boxes in that aren't taped shut or bring stuff in and buy boxes and packing materials there all of the time. They also asked me...

    Guitar Hero 2 360 Available YMMV

    They had them out on the floor at the cc here. I picked up mine that I ordered online with no problem. A guy at the checkout got one, but the manager had to do something because it wouldn't ring up. I guess they figured it out because a friend of mine just ordered online and they told him he...

    My 360 Died!

    I just called microsoft and was told that the warranty was only extended to one year. Does anyone have a link to an actual microsoft press release about an indefinite warranty for launch consoles? The gamespot article doesn't seem to carry much weight. It looks like I may be screwed since I...

    I guess I'll try to contact them to get my money back since I just paid for this three weeks ago.

    My 360 Died!

    They fixed mine, but they cracked the case in the process. I'd like to see this announcement if anyone can find it. If this is true microsoft owes me some money.

    My 360 Died!

    I believe the replacement consoles come with 90 day or 1 year warranties. If you had a launch machine that failed within a year and then that one failed within the new warranty period, you could get it replaced a bunch of times at no cost.

    My 360 Died!

    They don't. Microsoft extended the 90 day warranty to 1 year, but launch units are now out of warranty. Mine was purchased december 2005, and died 2 weeks ago. I had to pay $140 to get it replaced.

    Shipping was on me. I'm not sure if I even want to put up with the hassle of dealing with them. I may just order the black case or something.

    360 Back from Repairs with a Cracked Case

    I just got my 360 back from microsoft yesterday, and I noticed that they cracked the case getting it opened. It's not that big of a deal, but I paid $140 to get it repaired so it pisses me off. I'm sure microsoft will tell me to send it back in or something after I talk to an indian guy for 30...

    PC won't turn on

    My pc stopped working last week. I tested the power supply connecting pins 14 and 15 and the power supply turned on ok. I switched the reset switch connector with the power switch connector and still couldn't get it to turn on. I replaced the motherboard and it still won't turn on. I tried...

    Xbox 360 premium price drop, core cancelled, black with hdmi

    299 euros is $395. The 360 is currently selling for considerably more, dollar for dollar, in europe right now. I think most people are thinking that if they drop the price in europe, we will see a price drop of similar magnitude here in the states.

    Xbox 360 premium price drop, core cancelled, black with hdmi

    I don't think they can just add a cable. I think an actual hardware change needs to be made to support hdmi.

    Gears of War and Crackdown Bricked my 360

    I had no problems until I got the latest GOW patch a couple of weeks ago. Games started freezing, then when I got the latest Rainbow 6: vegas and madden patches on friday everything quit working. Mine was a launch console, so it was out of warranty.

    GoW + 360.

    It's not just with the vga cable. It's the way the game loads textures. I think it was mentioned in the review on the hard console site.

    New Xbox 360 (w/ larger HDD and HDMI) PIC!

    I don't see how this screws over anyone. If you wanted one with an hdmi connection, you should have waited. I have mine since last christmas, and it doesn't bother me. I've been playing it for over a year already. I wanted a 1080p tv, but when I bought my tv they were too expensive...

    Good place to buy XBox or X360 games?

    I think most places sell the games at the same price. I have seen them cheaper at amazon before, and shipping usually costs about the same as tax would. Circuit city and target sometimes have games listed in their sunday ads that are cheaper than normal. Usually when I decide to get a game, I...

    xcm fps for Xbox 360

    Probably the same as the keyboard mouse adapter that came out for xbox. I think it just converted mouse movements into analog stick movements, so it was essentially worthless from what i heard.

    Laptop DVD Audio Problem

    Everything works fine using windvd. I tried wmp10 and wmp11 and the sound is bad. I guess wmp is doing something with the 5.1 track that isn't good for laptop sound.
