There's new iPhone firmware out. It appears to fix the randomly crashing Safari issue finally! Huzzah!

Other than that, it doesn't appear to do anything. And it's, like, a 200mb download. Don't get an iPhone if you don't have broadband.

I'm going to finally start using the digital camera I got last month. First, however, I'm going to replace the 16mb memory card that came with the thing, so I can store up lots of photos on my trip to Florida in April.

Any suggestions for which card I should get that'll give me the best bang for the buck?

(FYI, my camera is a Canon PowerShow A720 IS, if that makes any difference to which card I should buy.)

Kathy, you have a metric buttload of choices. I've used SanDisk, Kingston, and PNY brands with no problems to date.

Yeah, you can get a pretty big one for not too much money, these days--my sister and I bought a digital camera for our brother for Christmas, and I was surprised to see how cheap all the memory cards were! Though I suppose as all the cameras get bigger you need a bigger card, but...

I know some people prefer to have just one big card, on the "I'm never going to bother switching it in or out or losing anything" theory, and others prefer to have a few (possibly smaller) cards, on the "what if something happened to one of them/the camera got stolen and all my good pictures from this trip were on it" theory.

A card bigger than 2GB might not work in your camera, though.

The 720 supports SDHC cards, so she can at least go to 4GB.

This was my main concern, and my instruction book gives precious little info on memory cards, other than how to format one, insert it, handle it, and how many photos cards from 16mb to 512mb will take.

Thanks for the help, everyone! I'll probably spring for either a 2gb or a 4gb since they're both pretty cheap.

edited to change the 2/4mb to a gb--big difference!

Has anybody else played around with the Firefox 3 beta? It seems MUCH faster on OS X than previous versions. I've never been able to handle Firefox for extended periods before because Camino and Safari seemed so much snappier, but this version is rocking my world.

Nope.

IOSomewhatRelatedN, I just read yesterday that OS X has some hidden API calls that Safari uses that makes it much faster than other browsers (where, of course, the developers don't know those API calls). So non-Apple programmers have been reverse engineering those APIs.

I wonder if this is part of the reason Firefox 3 seems faster?

Anyone have any recommendations for printers? I've had a Canon for about three years and it makes me crazy because about half the time it can't feed the paper and I have to restart it a couple times. Makes me nuts. I don't use it a lot, but really, it shouldn't be that hard to get a reasonably reliable home printer that doesn't cost $500.
