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!

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Doesn't that ROCK. I love it so much. When I'm traveling a lot, I just load up the laptop, and then watch old TV in the hotel or on planes.

Oh? How do you do that? (I mean, I burn DVDs, I do, but...I"m curious...though I suppose it involves getting a wireless thingum for my TiVo, I may just keep putting it off, since that costs...)

Go wireless, Meara, it's worth the dough (and it's not that expensive). Once you're wireless, it's easy to transfer stuff through tivo-to-go or any other number of ways.

AA NiMH batteries that are at least 2200 mAh work great in digital cameras and in my old Canon A40 used to give me almost 200 additional shots over Alkaline.
2200, eh? Thanks. Because, yeah, regular AA seems to poop out after, like, nothing. I put in new batteries this weekend, and a little over 60 shots later, it was telling me my battery was low. That's bullshit.
So NiMH rather than lithium?
