  1. Sounds like fun!! Suprised that you don't have a kerosene heater and 10 gallons of kerosene for a time like this. When I lived on the east coast, that was required equipment. Now out here in California, the required equipment is Flashlights and water - for EARTHQUAKES!! I don't think I've seen a kerosene heater since I've been out here - 20+ years. LOL Butthead: Whoa!

  2. Wow, they upped the price another $25 in two days ? I called them two days ago and they told me the upgrade to NTSC was only $50. Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah! Cool! bellyflier on the dz.com hybrid record jump
  3. Well it arrived this afternoon as expected and promised. NTSC model and US warranty. Woohoo!! Now to get some play time with it before I strap that baby to my noggin. Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah! Cool! bellyflier on the dz.com hybrid record jump
  4. Ok, got my attention. Where's this? How do I contact? Thanks. Nathan FYI - The one from Broadway is PAL and it is $639 now I just spoke to them in the last couple days when I was ordering mine. The NTSC version is $50 more. Two things to look for - One that it's NTSC, if you're going to be using it in the US, and also that it carries a US MFG warranty - not a "ship to Thailand for repairs" warranty. You're going to be hard pressed to find on on an Internet web site for less than 680 that is NTSC and carries the US warranty. I just went through this - see my other thread. Butthead: Whoa!

  5. You're the second person to ask me that. Here's the link: http://www.amphotoworld.com/product.asp?id=sndcrpc105 Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah! Cool! bellyflier on the dz.com hybrid record jump
  6. Yeah, e-bay does have some good deals on it. I frequent that site occaisionally. However, I did want to get a rush on this as we're going away this weekend and wanted the camera at the lowest price I could find online with overnite delivery. I found it. It was cheap, but I'm sure I could have found cheaper if I wanted to wait a week for shipping, or other considerations. Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah!

  7. Ed, are the washers necessary? Say for instance someone forgot or did not install them. Would this cause problems and he/she should install them ? So it goes like this: neptune washer strap plate screw or neptune strap washer plate screw or ?? Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah!

  8. Holy CRAP, I've been scammed!!! J/k - yeah, I thought that too when I went to just digitaldirect.com hehe Try this one... http://www2.buydigitaldirect.com/shop/product.aspx?ref=cnet&sku=DCR-PC105 Butthead: Whoa!

  9. Well, after carefully shopping around, I chose digitaldirect.com. They sell the camera for $688, plus I got the basic accessory pack $129 and rapid charger $59 with overnite delivery $59 all for the low low price of $931.00.
  10. Uncle Sam sent me a bonus this year, so I plan on buying the PC105. First I scan the web and e-bay looking for the best deals. Ebay has some OK deals, but I'm not quite comfortable buying that camera thru an auction. so I look online and found some really good deals (or so I thought.) The first company has the "PC-105" at $569.00. OMG - Put in an order right away since this is the lowest price I've seen so far. I get an e-mail asking for me to call them for order confirmation. I do and they tell me that it's going to be 3-4 weeks for delivery. WTF ?? I ask why and they tell me that this is the PAL version. WTF ?? I looked on their web page... nothing about PAL or for that matter - NTSC. I cancel the order and e-mail a complaint to their order and support aliases telling them that their web page is misleading and they should change it. I look up #2 on the low price list - $599 and place an order with them. This time I called before and made sure that it was NTSC. They said yes, I said ok, let me think about it and I'll order it online. So I order it, and get the usual confirmation (would you like any accessories?) e-mail from them. I call them back and they say that it is NTSC, however it is not a US model and if I have any problems with it, I gotta ship it back to Thailand as the US Sony repair shop won't warranty it. WTF ?? I ask about the US model and they tell me that it's $780. No thanks, I'll keep looking. So I looked at the old faithful that you guys all recommend (dbuys.com) and they sell it for $744. So is this the US version, and repairable in the US ? Any other cheaper places (websites ?) to get this camera ? I'm strongly looking at e-bay now... Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast!

  11. so I held $1,000,000 today its not such a big deal. but now I can say I did it Uhuh....SURE you did. Got pics or video ? Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah! Cool! bellyflier on the dz.com hybrid record jump
  12. BULLSHIT!! That's what my g/f and I said last night watching the end stunt. The 90lb wonder with 20lb tits should not have won the prize. Why ? Because dude helped her up onto the platform to reach the flag. They should have lost that on that specific technicality. She should have climbed up by herself without any help to win. utter BULLSHIT... I think I'm going to write a letter to the producers and tell them. I have to agree the tarantula stunt was probably the best "gross and weird" stunt I have seen to date. Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah!

  16. Both my g/f and I really don't care too much for v-day for different reasons, so we just kind of blow the day off as nothing special. Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah! Cool! bellyflier on the dz.com hybrid record jump
  17. Yo, I got some bandwidth and space for ya (up to 5 GB/day transfer) PM me if interested. Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah! Cool! bellyflier on the dz.com hybrid record jump
  18. Way to go Jeff on your first! I thought you had other cutaways before this one. It was actually very entertaining on the ground.... " uh-oh, that doesn't look good. cutaway! " " Damn, that looks harsh.... oh good - cutaway and reserve is out. " I saw the whole thing from the ground, and it looked like you handled it pretty good and pretty fast. Butthead: Whoa!

  19. Yeah, you biotches - buy the video!! I did... I watched it... It's fucking cool. Yeah, I said fucking cool. Definitely worth the 25 clams that I shelled out for it, although I didn't have to pay the shipping fee since I got it hand delivered yesterday. Good job for your first video, JP. It sure doesn't look like your first one - maybe your second. Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah! Cool! bellyflier on the dz.com hybrid record jump
  20. That's pretty damn funny! I also have to confess that I thought the words to that song were different until watching that thing. Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah! Cool! bellyflier on the dz.com hybrid record jump
  21. Cool! Save one for me unless I'm not there by the Sunset load. I'll be driving back from some snow-fun at Kirkwood tomorrow (edit) AND hope to get in a jump or two before sunset.. Thanks!
