I'm sure we can work something out. Let me check what the going rate on machines of that vintage are.

Daniel, it looks like similar machines are going for $700 to $850 on ebay. This one pretty much just came back from an Apple Care visit to fix any problems and then I replaced it with my MacBook Pro and it's been sitting on the shelf ever since. How does $650 sound?

Just in time for Halloween: I got a rock.

To wind a string around?

This is why I hate shopping almost anywhere in North Texas save Neimans.

Hi hive mind. Crazy question. Comes mostly from frugality. I mentioned in Bitches last night. I'm traveling to FLA next month for a family gathering. 5 days without internet... with family. Plus roundtrip cross country flights with mother. Love her. really.

So the question. I was wanting some sort of entertainment/internet browser thingie. I was looking at trying to get a wifi card for my old PDA, but it's too old. I was looking at some Sony thing, but it's wifi ONLY, and I got to thinking, what if my sisters place doesn't have wi-fi, and I'm kinda sick of Sony (my Clie is blah, and expansion is SONY ONLY parts). So then I'm thinking upgrading my phone to a data package. Which would mean getting the iPhone. Which is cool and all, but a bit pricey. So, is there a *good* item that gives ya browsing (even if it's JUST wi-fi), plays some videos, check e-mails, B.org, and maybe some games and stuff? And less expensive than the iPhone, but easy and cool? (wow, I'm not asking too much, am I?)
