DVP FX820 vs FX811 from Sams? So do you think this is just a model that was packaged just for Sam's but are essentially just the same (albeit $20 cheaper)?

I think I have to agree with Carl Peluso. The Sam's DVP FX811 boasts an 800x480 resolution. The buttons at the bottom of the screen are identical - they're round and placed exactly the same as the FX820. The FX810 has a chrome hinge for the screen, the FX811 is black. If the manual for the two models is word for word identical and they look identical I'd say they're the same. I may get the FX811 and save the $20.

I have the 18-200 and have enjoyed it. If you are absolutely sure you will never go FX, the 18-200 is a good choice. For less money, I would prefer the 28-300 instead of 18-300, if you ever want to move to FX.

James, Don't buy anything other than genuine GE filters which in my case are the FX12P and FX12M. Anything else will not give you satisfactory results in terms of capacity, taste, purity, etc. Anything else is just junk and I'm going to replace the cheap ones with the genuine ones at the first opportunity.

Tech Geek, appreciate your view. How is SR11 working for you ? Junior Piquito, I noticed that AbesOfMaine is selling it for 730 (plus free bag). I've been following prices on various web sites for 4-5 weeks now. At one point, Amazon.com dropped to 790. I don't know why it shot back up. I've never bought anything from AbesOfMaine before and have had a wonderful experience with Amazon.com shipping and customer service so far. I am going to wait out another week and if it doesn't drop, will buy it from the other place. I hope amazon can offer competitive price.

No!! For the CPU from VT-STAR. Its OEM ver. which is cool....like 30% off the BOX price and the FAN from AMD is not as good as the Generic Fan outside.This CPU was EOL like 2yrs ago...LUCKY I still can find it here.

Just FYI, I recently acquired both the VAR-A2 and VAR-G8 through Akinaiblog Japan Shop. They've added it to their regular list of items as well, so others from outside of Japan can order them. The price is a little high, about $100 shipped, but I did get both components through them. They were very good with communication and very professional. As of this writing, they have three sets of components left. Here's the link: http://www.akinaiblog.com/product/2638 -- both items for 7031 YEN and it cost me 3000 YEN shipping to the USA. They shipped it out on a Thursday and it got here Saturday... just two days! If anyone is looking for a reliable source for these two components, I recommend them.

Somebody has to be kidding. Discontinued or not! The replacement is the M570 (I think it is still available) for about a 10% of that price. I have both and they both work very, very well.

if you are talking about using LME49720NA on board. I have never done that. Although I can perform component level repair I never thought I had to up grade the fx card. Sorry I cant help, either you have high criteria for sound quality or you are like I used to be loved messing with electronics. you must be thinking maybe they are mono.be ware the total design of the card. good luck. I FOUND THIS IN WEB. There are 4 sockets that require no de-soldering/soldering. Two of them are single DIP LME49710's, which is what I replaced. The dual DIP NJM2411D's are pretty good, and shouldn't need to be upgraded. Creative made them customizable for the Titanium HD. I was able to pry them off with my fingers, but if you don't have strong fingers, just use a flathead and pry them loose. http://support.creative.com/kb/ShowArticle.aspx?sid=85621

I honestly don't know our plans for Arrandale on our UL series. I think there are two options coming from Intel (4 threads and 8) and they are probably much more expensive than the SU7300. Those might be processors for a $1400 ultra-niche model; not sure what we're going to do (really!). We are extremely pleased with the positive reviews from the SU7300 cpu models (spec/price balance) so I wouldn't want to see us mess with success too soon.

Not sure what responders are talking about here. The X1204USB does indeed built in FX but the 1204USB model doesn't (and is $30 cheaper).. Just look at the top right of the board where it lists all the preset effects... reverb, chorus, delay, etc...

Contact the manufacturer, I don't know. Sams club has the best prices on the whole thing.

It's the same, with the addition of the branding. It also comes with a mousepad, but it's been folded in the box for a very long time. I've had mine for a few months, and it's still not flat. Still, it's ~$30 cheaper than the unbranded model, who cares if it comes with a bent mousepad that the more expensive model doesn't even have. Throw it away and you're still way ahead of the game. I don't play Modern Warfare and didn't care one way or the other about the markings, I just liked saving $30. Plus, the Modern Warfare markings look pretty good, even if I don't play.

Guess what? I had the same "debate" in Sam's 2 days ago. I ended up buying the FX820, the difference isn't that much ($20), and I won't have any surprises! I bought one for my daughter on June 12th (HUGE SUCCESS) and ended up getting another one for my son 2 days ago! I'd say go with the FX820! GOOD LUCK!

There's a promotion going for the LN46B750. Amazon is currently selling it for $1,999.99. Input coupon code, "SAMTV300" and it drops to $1,699.99. I'm pissed because yesterday I picked up an LN46A860 from Crutchfield for $1,579.99 with 1% FW cashback. It already shipped, bleh.Specs wise, seems like everything is the same except that the LN46B750 introduces 240Hz motion and Internet@TV (Yahoo!, YouTube, Flickr, etc.). Also, the LN46B750 has a charcoal ToC while the LN46A860 has a dark blue one. Moreover, I haven't come across a review that details the performance of the 240Hz motion.

I know its ridiculous. I had been trying to hunt one down also and finally got my hands on one. My suggestion would be to try Newegg and J&R because both have options to request an automatic notification when the product comes in stock. Both retailers had units in stock last week but sold out very quickly. Last I checked Newegg had an ETA of 11/22 and J&R told me last week they'd be getting more within 1-2 weeks but they allow you to add it to cart and pre-purchase now which will ensure one of the units in that next shipment will be yours. Between these two choices I'd go with J&R if at all possible only because there'll be no tax and free shipping and as a bonus you can use Amex points if you happen to have any and purchase through shopamex.com. The strategy that worked for me was to signup for auto-alerts from both of these retailers and I also created a Google alert to be e-mailed anytime a new post appeared that included "Aspire Timeline AS1810T" as well as a Bountii alert. I know it sounds like overkill but I was concerned it would only get more difficult to get one the closer we got to X-Mas so I chose to cover all possible bases and it worked-got one of these puppies in my hands in less than a week. Anyway best of luck - I assure you its worth the wait it's a great little machine.
