Hear what others are saying about this system:

A Gamer from Phoenix, AZ

"Buy this if for only the up-sampling of DVDs. Apparently processing power is the key to this, and normal DVDs look so good, that one wonders why you even need any high definition ones. I formerly had an up sampling Sony player - everything looked grainy and washed out, with the PS3 even the oldest DVDs now look like HD. Using it with a new Panasonic 50" Plasma - the one "check rated" as the best TV ever tested - so when I say the PS3 is good, I mean really good. Add to this the games, the wireless internet, the photo viewer, the card reader, and the best sounding CD playback I have ever heard (I compare this to Krell CD player,it simply blows the multi thousand dollar Krell away) - its a major bargain. Only minor issue I have had, is that it does not like some videos on DVD-Rs, but this is not enough of an issue to not give it 5 stars in every category. Also you must use it with an HDMI connection - they should really include the cable."

Ken from Seattle, Washington

"I decided to get an 80GB PS3 over a 40GB because I wanted to plan for future where having a hard drive with more memory might be nice. What I am glad about (that I didn't know until after the purchase) is that the 80GB PS3 is backwards compatible with PS2 games. Costco has the 40GB with a nice overall package (extra controller, one game, blu-ray remote control) but the lack of backwards compatibility was the deal breaker. Blu-ray DVDs look fantastic on my Sony XBR 46' LCD TV from the PS3. The Internet Web Browser is a nice additional feature on the PS3, but I wish that it was compatible with my Hotmail account. It is still not as good as IE or Firefox browsers. My overall experience with Buy.com has been favorable. I would do it again."

jacknewby@comcast.net from JAX, FL

"I wanted a Blu-ray player so why not this one. I love this thing! Has all the digital connections you need to hook up to your receiver, DVR etc. DVD's look awesome and there's games to boot. I got the remote to go with, please note that if want to use the remote you'll need to update the console and to do that you need to connect it to the Internet. Not a big deal and what most will do anyhow, but thought I should mention."

With all this excitement don't you think you should check it out for yourself and see what you have been letting slide by!

Before deciding on a bandwidth solution for your business there's basic fundamental questions you must be aware of. Not just what they are but also how the answers will impact your network application(s)... and most importantly the impact on potential cost of implementing that network.

Part of any business plan for installing or upgrading a computer network infrastructure is estimating potential costs .... with bandwidth requirements an obvious big chunk of the deliberation. To do this appropriately you need to know what you're getting into first. Overlook these factors ..... or make assumptions on their affect to network installation, management, and performance costs means you may end up paying more than you expected.

Here's a scenario to illustrate the message .....

You are intending to upgrade your company's computer network in the coming months basing the infrastructure on DS3 bandwidth. You are getting several quotes for adding another upstream provider, as well as trying to price new accounts. You want to know what are average costs of a DS-3's (full 45 Mbps)to end users and 100 Mbps connections?

First, there are three components of cost for upstream bandwidth that you must be aware of...

1. access, sometimes called the local loop, is the circuit between your physical location and the carrier POP (Point Of Presence)

2. port speed, which is essentially how many megs you're buying

3. equipment to interconnect between the carrier and your network.

Access price will depend on your various locations and where you can take delivery of the service. Some carriers will have "lit" buildings that will be less costly for them to serve. Generally, the farther any location you want serviced is from a POP the more your loop cost will be. The closer it is the less your cost will be. This is the most often overlooked component of any pricing exercise .... and the one that can up your costs quickly and drastically. Here's a tip ..... if you're within a reasonable distance for their POP many providers will waive the loop cost. So make sure you ask about that.

Port speed will vary by carrier, by product type, and by any specific vendor promotions ongoing at the moment. These costs are generally on the decrease overall so you should make out here .... but still ensure you compare multiple providers and negotiate for the best cost. Also make sure that provider port speed promises include a SLA (Service Level Agreement) and QoS (Quality of Service) commitment which penalizes the provider for non-compliance and protects your financial investment. Getting less bandwidth reliability than you need will impact on the performance of your intended application(s). If you learn this too late you will end up paying more through the lost productivity to your business.

Equipment costs turns to zero if you take an Ethernet connection, but typically you have to be in a "lit" building to take advantage of that. Otherwise to hang a router on a DS-3 the carrier may charge a few extra hundred dollars per month. If Ethernet connectivity is available .... grab it. It will cut your expenses dramatically. Also ask if the provider will "give" you a free router. Many do so today as sales incentive.

There you have it. The basics of what to ensure is incorporated into any deliberations on your computer network bandwidth requirements. Gloss over any of these and you will end up paying more than necessary. There are of course some more complicated and technical considerations your IT staff will ponder. But to make business sense at least the above must be your starting point.

Should you like to save even more in the deliberation process (time, effort and money) I suggest using the services of a no cost consultant such as DS3-Bandwidth.com who can navigate the maze on your behalf. They'll do all the research and negotiations for you .... and simplify your involvement to a less stressful approve/disapprove. That just makes even more business sense.

The Nintendo Wii is hot property these days. You might have expected the excitement to have died down well over a year after its launch. But no, they are still as hard to get as ever.

The retail selling price for the basic Nintendo Wii console of $250 makes it by far the cheapest gaming machine on the market. However, actually finding a Wii at this price these days takes a combination of luck, perseverance and ruthlessness. Of course, there are Wii's available easily if you are willing to pay inflated prices. If not, here are some tips to help you get your Wii at retail.

Monitor websites

Do your research. Find out the online stores that stock Wii's such as Amazon.com and bookmark them on your browser. Monitor them at least once a day to see if they have a new shipment in. Also, try to get news of when websites are expecting shipments. You will have to be quick here. It is rumored that one recent shipment of Wii's at Amazon sold out in ten minutes.

Check local stores

Find out which stores stock Wii's in your local area. Visit them and see if you can find a friendly assistant or manager who can tell you when a new shipment may be coming in. If you are lucky, you might be able to get some valuable information and beat the crowds on the 'big day'. If you do get a date, get to the store early. At least two hours before opening time is recommended.

Tracker sites and forums

Keep your ear to the ground. Searching for Wiis is now bordering on a national pastime so there are all kinds of tips, tricks and rumors circulating on the internet and on the streets. Keep an eye on tracker sites and forums, but beware of misinformation!
