Gotta do it, Phil. Lots of options!...Especially with your new shoes!

drexappeal

Hahaha...Thanks, bro. Funny, cuz someone sang the B.E.P. song last night..."Bebot, Bebot, Beh!"

drexappeal

Oh man, Doug. You guys are driving me more and more in that direction (even though I do like the sidemarker lights (which could always be re-located with custom work).

drexappeal

Flip, you're makin' it worse, dawg!...Gotta keep my priorities though, dawg. Looks like I'm gonna be getting my new "shoes" before Christmas...hopefully. Gotta order them first...then, just maybe.

btw...Not goin' up to the Bay this weekend, bro. Gotta help my Tito and Tita move into their new place.

Damn, it's too bad too, cuz I was gonna invite all you bay area heads to my homegirl's party. Well, there's always other opportunities that'll come up.

Thanks, Mikey. Dude, I've still got a hangover.

Much thanks, bro. Nah, you guys don't have to set up a fund for me. I appreciate the sentiment though. ...

but, like I said in one of my posts, if someone has hookups on sony digital camers, well...I won't mind that

Good Guys is closing out, you may want to check them out. I think the digital cameras are now 20% - 30% off.

btw, nice spoiler.

actually i have a friend whos dad works for sony in san diego. i got my 36" WEGA TV at a huge discount like 5 years ago. ill call him and ask about a cam.

drexappeal

Thanks, man! Imma roll over there after work to check it out!

drexappeal

Thanks, Doug. I really appreciate it. That'd be ideal.

i called him, they are only allocated so many discounts per year. what kind of cam, model etc. are you looking for.

Still reading some reviews, so I'll have to get back to you on that. I was looking into the Sony DSC-T7, but most of the reviews I've read have been mediocre to bad. The newer one, Sony DSC-T5 got better reviews, but supposedly the picture quality is not very good (although, as long as the picture is clear, I'm not sure if it'll make a difference for me). Doesn't have to be a "perfect" picture, but as long as it's clear enough where it doesn't look smeared, I'll be cool. The Sony DSC-N1 is the next to come out and is 8.1 Megapixels, but I don't think I need that. So right now, it's between the DSC-T7 and DSC-T5. All comes down to size of the camera and actual clarity of the pictures. If the pictures really come out blurry, then I'll probably look into other cameras.

ok, ill call my friend and give him those two model numbers and PM you the cost.

I would totally go for the N-1! but, I don't think I'll go Sony again... My DSC-P150 is acting funny, and I think I would rather have the Canon Powershot S550.

drexappeal

Sweet! Thanks so much, Doug.

drexappeal

Yeah, I really like Canon digi-cameras, but the main reason I'm thinking purely Sony right now is because of the extra memory sticks I'll have available to me (from my parents video camera).

Drex,

A couple of things to think about. One, you might get a good deal at Goodguys. However, once they close down all there stores, I'm not sure how warranty goes if something goes wrong with your camera.
Two, my brother got his Sony digital camera along with other gadgets at the Sony Store (outlet). You can definitely get some good deals, especially if you know someone there. Salespeople do have a limit as to how much they can buy a year. Also, make sure it's not a refurbished one. Check with the warranties. He does have problems with it now too.
Three, I personally believe that Canons are by far the best digital cameras out there. Check out the reviews of them. I have the powershot S400 for compactness and the Canon Digital Rebel SLR for quality, flexibility, and quick shutter speed to capture action shots.
Lastly, check out Costco to see what they have. I'm sure you know about their outstanding return policy. If something goes wrong, you can always exchange it even after years go by. They won't tell you that, but you can return just about anything at anytime. Keep your receipt though. The only exception would be computers and software as those change way to quickly.
I have had friends had camcorders breakdown after 2+ years gone by. Even though the model was no longer available, they were able to exchange it a better model and got full value of what they paid.
Something to think about.....
