    is the "s-word" allowed on tv now?

    I think the biggest problem wtih the v-chip is that many don't even know it exists or what it can do. When was the last time a salesperson told you about it? I am in the process of buying a new tv right now and I haven't had ANY of them mention it and each visit I've made I've had our young...

    So, Does Anyone Want to Talk About the SpongeBob Movie?

    Movie was okay - I went in with low expectations and came away pleasantly surprized. As said above, IMHO tv episodes work better. FWIW I was also surprised at the number of people there without kids lol!

    Breaking News: XM to raise rates but include extras for subscribers

    As a consumer, I am always leary of "lifetime" memberships as they usually represent a HUGE risk for the busiess offering them [one time cash inflow vs ongoing outflow]. That said, it would work for SAT radio if they work it into OEM units and charge the fees with the sale of a vechicle. For...

    Hi All; Well - after searching the forums for a couple of weeks Ive decided to go with a Toshiba 51" RPTV as my next set. Now - I have to decide between the 51H83 and the 51HX83. Problem is - no one has really been able to explain the difference to me. The "sales rep's" at Future Shop and...
