1. And the DSi is STILL selling well, even now. 2. Does this explain the huge difference? 3. The old DS lite is still being sold now, and doing well enough. Also, you're overlooking the fact that the Go ditched the media, and Sony is the one who set the price. The DSi also ditched the media, but only the older GB media. 4. And this doesn't apply to the PSP-Go? Actually, Asian markets tend to prefer units from HK or SG, since they're more internationally oriented. This applies to all consoles/handhelds.
You can try to hash it in any way you like, or bring up a ton of excuses. But like or not, the PSP-Go just doesn't ring a bell for the majority of people, compared to the older models.
I find it amusing how people try to act smart by making snap decisions on why people say what they say, even though it may not be anywhere near the actual truth.
If you can afford a PSP-anything, along with the games, then you most probably can afford a PSP-Go.
That pretty much sums it up. A wireless system that doesn't sound like crap is going to be way too expensive, and much, much more expensive than just running speaker wires. It's also still going to have to be powered.
Just run the wires, unless it's impossible. If just not feasible, run the wires, and make it feasible. Usually when someone says that putting wired speakers is not feasible, it's still very doable, it's just that he hasn't gotten creative.
Actually I think that it's not too far fetched that you could make a similar designed compact folding bicycle, perhaps with some electric assistance. Pedals and a crank could be placed around where the foot rests are now, which could drive the front wheel directly. I also don't see why they can't put the handlebars in the front of the rider, something that would feel a lot more familiar and safer to most. But then again, a lot of folding bikes are about the same size as this when folded, so there's probably not much point to it.
It looks to be nearly all carbon, and I bet it's one thing that drives the price up. Could be aluminum or just reinforced plastic, and the price would drop like a rock.
Incidentally, it looks a lot like what the first generation of bikes were like, large front wheel and tiny rear wheel. It's come around full circle, then?
If I'm not mistaken, the chart combined the Batman:AA sales of the PS3 and 360, vs the single platform sales of Wii Sports Resort. So, on a per platform basis, Wii Sports Resort still wins.
Nikon D700s, which have been out for a long time, can do ISO 25,600, with ISO 6400 about max for usability. Crazy ISO is usually pointless, except for those times when you're forced to use available light, and getting *some* picture is better than getting *no* picture.
Hmm, no video? Perhaps Sony is still afraid that it'll encroach on camcorder sales, unlike Canon. That and the fact that lenses for this mount are not plentiful (Minolta) or way expensive (Sony), makes it a real questionable investment, compared to its competitors. And it's a Sony for crying out loud... you'll be gouged on every single purchase.
And remember this guys, Apple only charges the operators around $300 for each iPhone 3GS. So Apple's making a real killing on this (like on almost all their products). They could afford to sell it for a lot less, even for the same as the 5800's, but then it wouldn't be Apple, would it?
Yeah, the iPhone is great. Hail to the iPhone, with all its wonderful features, and inexplicable lack of features.
But.
The iPhone 3GS 16GB costs around US$800-$900 in most parts of the world, unlocked (which is how much of the world operates, with unlocked phones). Buy it on contract, and in the end you're paying even more than that. The 3G costs only a bit less (around US$700-800). That's a lot to pay for a phone, no matter how wonderful it is.
The Nokia 5800 costs a bit over US$300 unlocked. Yes, it's not as cool, or as refined, or as stylish, or as (non-)functional as the iPhone. But that price tag is a *lot* easier to swallow. You still get around 80-90% of the iPhone, without having to dish out 80-90% of the iPhone's price tag.
I hope it addresses the issues with the EP-1, especially the poor AF speed. Given that Panasonic has the GH1 which has exceptional AF (nearly as fast as a DSLR), this should be found in the GF1, along with the outstanding high-speed EVF (in LCD format, perhaps). Also, given Panny's track record vs Olympus's, I'm expecting that this will trump the EP-1 in many areas.
To anyone in the market for something like this and tempted to get the Olympus pen, you'd best wait for this to come out first.
"I have a MacBook Pro and an Xbox 360 and I would like to get a 20- to 24-inch display that will support both devices. The speakers should be inbuilt, or there should be an aux out on the display to hook up external speakers. Help! Please!"
