Gudanov, Cashmere was using a Flip at the Madison F2F, and it did pretty well.

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!
My DVD player has been acting up -- skipping and pausing randomly. I tried the lens cleaner thing -- the disk with little brushes on the bottom -- and it seemed to fix it for about eight hours of playback, but then it started skipping again. I've tried running it again, and each time I run it, the DVD plays cleanly for less and less time -- it's now down to about five minutes. Any ideas for other things I could try, or is it time to just admit that it's broken and get a new DVD player?
I got my new MacBook Pro!
I named it “vanderrohe”, because it’s sleek and of metal and glass, but I’m not sure the name will stick.
My desk has two tower PCs on it, one LCD monitor, an 8.5x11 or so flatbed scanner, and a keyboard. And stuff I can't convince myself to move away.
I need a printer. Enough that I'm considering buying one when I have no income. There's no desk space for it, even when I finally move one of the towers. I don't want to put anything on the floor if I don't have to, because of the cable snarls and the dust issue.
Looking at the Office Max page omnis linked to, there are no just inkjet printers for sale from Brother. Which made me think about a flatbed MFC, so I could lose the scanner too. And it can't hurt to have fax capabilities...
Anyone have MFC recs? It's either that or a small photo inkjet printer. Which I'm off to go look for.
My HP inkjet/photo printer does good scanning action, so you could repurpose the scanner footprint if you replaced it with one of those. I never had a dual-purpose one before (it will also make copies, so bonus) and I'm wondering why I waited so long.
What's the model #?
I have the Brother MFC240C and really like it.
C3180 All-in-One
OK. I'm finally admitting that my DVD player is really most sincerely dead. Any recommendations for a new one? I'm not really looking for anything fancy, just a good balance of cheap and reliable. Any recommendations of brands or features to look for or avoid?
I like the look of this Brother MFC465. It has an ethernet port...
