@Dale -

Al Gore is American.

Office Depot has had these for a few weeks. The 4GB and 8GB are selling there for less than the prices listed in the article.

To be honest, this was supposed to be a reply to Newone, but we all know how that goes.

That's what she said!

As someone with relatively no electrics background -- can you induce through an insolator (rubber)?

I actually just went looking around through the read link and some googling. And, while the 6$ a year cost more on a CFL bulb from the BetterBulb.com figures doesn't seem enough to justify the cost, it gets worse:

This bulb replaces a 25W incandescent bulb at the consumption of 4W. Guess how many watts a CFL 25W equivalent uses from some quick Googling? 4 or 5 Watts. So that's a saving of roughly....zilch over a CFL. Soooo why are these better exactly?

Anyone got a comparison for how much a traditional incandescent and CCFL cost in electricity per year & upfront?

Samsung makes a bunch of models that do 1080p in a low-mid 20's range. Check out the 2223HD and the Touch of Color 24".

I'd like to thank you all for missing the sarcasm. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that the original comment was made in reference to the preview shot which is obviously blurry and distorted due the water.

Defensiveness ftw?
