...or buy that extended warranty that Sony has mailed out. $300 for the extended (3 year warranty) and $150-$200 for the lamp. I know what I did. ;-)
LOL!!! Very good!

This should put a stake in the heart of this topic.

;-)
To those complaining, are your really serious or are you just practicing your debating skills?

Betas end and then, if the product is commercial, you pay if you want to continue to use it. If the product is not a "for fee" product then a general release comes out (at no charge) but the earlier beta still goes away. No vendor wants a beta to be out there forever. It is an inherent exposure that the vendor does not need. This model typically applies to business software, personal software, game software... just about all software.

Come on now. Debate something important, not the pulling of a beta program.
You go right ahead and compare the new Zen to the iPod Touch and or the new Nano and conclude that the iPod sucks. It is a free country. Someone has to buy these things. Good to keep Creative in business. Good to keep some (however small) pressure on Apple so that they will continue to push the envelope on development.

I will stick with my iPods. They just work and work well. Lots of demand on eBay when I sell and upgrade.
Tanner,

You are 100% correct. 'Nuff said.

Man, you really do hate Apple, don't you. Good thing that you live in a free country so that you can ensure that none of your hard earned money goes to the Rotten Apple. LOL.

(As an aside... Like Bill Gates/MS, Dell, HP are not a marketing beasts.)

Every company makes mistakes. Enjoy your PC (which I assume never has any hardware or software problems). You are a very lucky guy, if so.

Come on, live in peace.
Huh?!?

Just because Apple does not assemble it's products in the US does not mean it does not "make" anything. They design, plan and produce the vast majority of their Macs and iPods. Come on... they are not just a "reseller". LOL!

One of the funnier things that I have read today.
Man, the comment above sure raises the bar on intelligent discourse, doesn't it?!?
I know that there are certainly Apple fanboys (hell, if I think about it, I just may be one)... but is there such a thing as a Microsoft fanboy? ;-)

PS, Anyone know where I can get an Apple fanboy t-shirt?
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm pretty much a complete noob when it comes to camera stuff. My wife loves to take pictures, though. So much so that she literally wore out her first point and shoot camera, and the Kodak Z712 I bought for her less than two years ago is starting to act up as well. To compound the matter, we are expecting our first born sometime next year. I fear the Kodak just isn't going to cut it any longer. What would be the best starter DSLR to get? She hates missing photo opportunities due to camera 'lag' so speed would definitely be at the top of the list. Photo quality and features would be next. Price should be no more than $800. I'm not interested in video capabilities."
