can't you log into me(dot)com and click "find my phone"? and do it via web?

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Never mind--amych tried to help, but I apparently don't have mine set up right--I was hoping to find it if it's lost/stolen and make it make noise, etc.
you can do that via the web at www.me.com/find
I just did it to my phone. Works like a charm.
Apparently not, OA--it has to be set up for that, and I didn't. (I think when it came out you had to set it up using an iphone4 to do it on a 3gs (which mine is), so I never got around to bothering a friend with a 4 to do that)
you want I should call your phone (e-mail your # if you want)
Thanks--I've already tried calling it a couple times (from my home number, which I'm pretty sure isn't in the phone), and there was no answer. I'm really hoping I somehow find it--it seems odd someone at the gym would've taken the phone but nothing else, but I suppose it's possible and maybe easier.
meara will whoever your plan is with trace it for you? If it is on, they can do it, but "will" is another matter.
I bought a HDTV last fall, HDTiVo a few months ago, and have been thinking about upgrading the rest of my system for a while. I have an old all-in-one Panasonic DVD player-home theater system I bought... I dunno, something like 7-8 years ago. Very basic -- it cost about $250 back then. As basic as it is, it's served me well, but I've been thinking about upgrading the DVD player to a Blu-Ray player, and my current system has the DVD player integrated with the sound system (the power cord actually goes into the subwoofer). So if I wanted to upgrade, I'd need to jettison the whole thing.
My option would be: 1) Get an all-in-one blu-ray home theater system. Like this one. [link]
2) Get a blu-ray player + a sound bar
3) A blue-ray player + separate full audio system.
I love music but not a huge audiophile or anything. I have a decent-sized living room (13x27 ish) in my condo. Surround sounds would be nice but not a must. It would be fabulous if it has the capacity to play the digital media on my computer (I have a home network) without the intermediary step like me having to burn a DVD or use an USB stick -- a capacity my TV currently lacks. Err, whadayacallit, DLNA-compatible? I'm thinking of spending maybe around $500 in total, although I can go up a bit if needed.
Anyone has a set up similar to mine, and if so, any advice on which set-up to go to / any models you particularly like?
Thanks!
Wow, I had no idea home theatre Blu-Ray systems were that cheap. Hmmmm....
I would not order one online without seeing it in a store to make sure it has all the inputs/outputs you need to integrate with the rest of your system.
You don't need to see it to be sure it has the inputs and outputs, do you? You just need to read the specs.
I am in general averse to all-in-one systems. I think it's more freeing to be able to upgrade one piece without regard for the other. Starting off with a sound bar means you can later upgrade to a full system if you want the more complete experience.
