  1. We have had a garmin Nuvi for a long time now(6+ years?). We have loved it.. but its dying a slow death.. takes forever to grab the satalites now, and isnt as quick on the ball as it used to be at finding locations.. I am going to NYC soon, driving, and would like one with traffic updates and lifetime maps. No TomTom. I dont like them, dont want them. Garmin has always made me happy, but wouldnt be upset at looking at a Magellen. I will not use my phone for GPS. Budget 150. I dont mind a previous model either, as long as the two features above are listed..
  2. oh and which processer is in this?

  9. I'm sorry I misunderstood. Usually looking for the 2.5gt leads me to think of 05+ Good luck in ir search
  10. Good luck finding a 2.5GT for 5K or less. my outback is 2005 with 140K on it and still worth 8. Minimum 6K minimum for FAIR condition. One in good to excellent is still around 8-9K There is a NON turbo 05-06 for sale over on Trabue at a small dealership that i passed today. http://www.sharpinmotors.com/directions.aspx Its not on thier website, and today is the first time i have seen it there.

    audio books

    Games of thrones books on audio are pretty good, we also listened to the chronicles of narnia, as well as any of Neil gaimems books, or the dark tower series, by Stephen king

  15. Haha frank the HP+ are a track pad, of course they are noisy, hehe. Nathan loves his HP+, but only has them in for Mid-Ohio.
  16. Ive had HPS's on all my cars and have been pretty happy with them. Dusting has never been terrible, that I couldn't just wash off with a sponge during a car wash
  17. The biggest thing for me is when you see them zoomed in, and see where the detail actually is, which is more prevalent when you printing an image. Ill be honest, i dont do techincal jargon the way Tim Does. The easiest way for me explain is to show you. This is the D700's Histogram, as well as a side by side of the two images (the d700 is on the right) http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8003/6961174204_d4c9730b32_b.jpg d700histogram by Lucky Lola Studios, on Flickr This is the D90's Histogram (D90 image is on left) http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8155/7107241253_aeaa81be45_b.jpg D90historgram by Lucky Lola Studios, on Flickr Lightroom Histogram explanation if you arent familiar. http://i.imgur.com/HnyuF.jpg
  18. Tim has pretty much said anything and everthing i have thought. I feel like the EVIL's are just that. They are a glorified point and shoot for pros who dont want to carry thier equipment everywhere, or for camera enthusiests who dont want bulky equipment. They will never be the norm, IMHO, for proffessionals. I see no reason for you to start at the very bottom of the entry level cameras. Theoretically you could keep your camera for as long as your lenses. My D90, is still a pretty nice camera, even though its almost 5 years old. Sure its been supersceded by the D5100, but between my D700 and my D90, im still pretty happy with teh quality of shots it takes, but i have always coupled it with Nikons higher end lenses. Get a few cheap primes (35mm 1.8 is my fave, as well as the 50mm 1.8) i feel like these should be in ANY photographers kit, but thats just me. As far as the lenses go. I opted to buy a Tamron 28-75 (new 400, used 300) over the nikon 24-70(new 1800, used 1750). Reasons? They have INCREDIBLE quality vs Price to the Nikon. Same thing goes with the Tamron 70-200 2.8. Ultimately, yes, i would LOVE to have the nikon equivalents, and one day will, but cost/quality/ and needs, ill stick with the Tamrons for now.
