I love my MiFi. Had it since August '09 & use it with my MacBook Pro and iPad. I work for a government agency that puts significant internet blocks on our computers, so I bring my MiFi to work with the iPad when I need to get to sites the blocking software will not let me go. Frequently, these...

Ron- I, too, have had an iPad since day one. I flew to Denver on 7/20 whipped that sucker out as soon as electronics were permitted. I wanted to re-watch a film I am reviewing for the forum. I never got to it. Luckily, I had one seatmate & an empty in the middle. We were in the last row. My...

David, Southpaw: I'll give the restaurant sequence another listen. Perhaps I should save '5/5' for reference discs. Still learning what the membership needs in a BD review. I will say I thought the gun chatter, at times, was more realistic than typical movie cannons. I found Wax's silenced...

Prom Night in Mississippi The Film 4.5/5 Charleston, Mississippi, population 2100, is a small, Bible Belt community where racism hangs on in subtle ways. In 1970, 16 years after the U.S. Supreme Court decided Brown v. Board of Education, Charleston integrated its high school. However, the...

Rick- Do you know where I can buy some 2 disc BD blanks? You were reading my mind about Cast Away. I got the BD at Best Buy for $9.99 and I want to pull my SD extras disc and store it with the BD feature. Whoops! I found them on eBay! What I also need is a couple of the multi-disc cases. The...

Yes, Cameron, considering that Lost 5 just streeted over a month ago, that's an excellent price. I don't have 1 & 2 on BD and might pick 'em up. Of course, $24.99 would be even nicer !

Bones Seasons 1 & 3 Victory at Sea True Blood Season 1 (BD)

My first BD player, from Panasonic, and my Toshiba HD DVD player both came with 3' HDMI cables. I was shocked in both instances to find the cables included.

Here in NJ, we are getting so much snow that I might not make it to BB and Target tomorrow, which is very unusual for me when thare are sales to be had!! Hopefully, we can still make it to AVATAR in the afternoon. In any case, thanks to you, Mike, for another year of service to all of us...

This special has been running for some time. The titles frequently change, so it's worth a look each time I go in.

Mike- A visit to my Union, NJ Costco this morning showed the Terminator Salvation BD Director's Cut at $18.99. The standard edition is only $2 less. A good deal on a mediocre movie. Thanks for continuing to do a great job. I never shop until I consult the Roundup.

Okay...When Warners set up the Red2Blu program, I sent them 24 qualifying HD DVD sleeves and, to date, received three Harry Potter films. I jumped on this program as soon as it was announced and ended up with nearly zippity-do-dah. I wish I could get more excited about the new program...

I was pleasantly surprised yesterday, as I wandered the racks at Best Buy, and found one lonely copy of John Adams-BD for $24.99. I also nearly had a heart attack as I realized it was an HBO product that was being significantly discounted!!

Jason-I was a bit surprised to see the notice. While Amazon always notifies, it never is as early as this one was. I was HOPING that it might show up a day or two early, but no such luck. I am sure it will be resting comfortably inside my storm door when I get home today.

Got my shipping notice from Amazon yesterday. I can't wait to get my hands on this, both for the feature and the extras!

Dave- No Battlestar on BD yet. Universal released Season 1 on HD DVD. That's all we've seen on hi-def to date.

I think the pool of BD buyers is still too small to consider a dual release. Why not a 2 disc set with the extended cut + extras on disc 1 and the theatrical cut on disc 2?

Got the Potters on HD DVD for $32 in the last BOGO sale. That was still 2007 & I got the additional 10%. This time I picked up 28 Days/Weeks Later on BD for $28. Got the Amazon Prime shipping, but I sure wish Amazon would offer 10% off hi-def again. With that discount I always checked the site...
