Only The Hottest Deals And Free Stuff!
This ultra-compact GPS navigator has an internal antenna, and (unlike the 200-250 series’ of Nuvi’s) it does have the critical text-to-speech feature, so street and highway names will be spoken aloud.
Having tried out literally dozens of GPS units I can say confidently that the Garmin Nuvis are far and away the best performing and easiest to use GPS systems on the market today.
I’ve always been of the opinion that Macs (as well as most of Apple’s toys) are overhyped and overpriced.
Steve Jobs has just unveiled the MacBook Air.
At its thickest point it is 0.76″, it tapers down to just 0.16″
It has a full-size keyboard, a high-res 13.1″ LCD, and it runs on a Core 2 Duo processor.
At $1,799 it’s actually priced lower than comparable ultra-portable notebooks.
It lacks an optical drive, but get this, it will supposedly be able to wirelessly use the optical drive of any nearby Mac or PC!
Is it time to switch to the dark side?

“Well, I called and they “miraculously” found a contract that’s $10 cheaper than the last time I called… so it saves me $120 a year! Thanks Dan.”
Nobody ever said that you have to cancel, and a $120/year (plus tax!) bribe in order not to cancel would probably make most people stay put! Was this with Verizon or Sprint?
David wrote in a comment on the “Get out of Sprint or Verizon for free” post,
“I canceled verizon and I have a text messaging plan. I canceled within 5 minutes. I called from my other cell phone and refused to give them my name or cell number so they would not be able to notate my account. The CSR knew what i was trying to do and said it had no affect on me. I hung up and redialed and spoke to someone another nicer CSR.
1) I asked her if she was aware about the price increase. She said yes!
2) I asked her if she was aware that this was a breach in my contract and that i would be allowed to cancel my service with no ETF. She put me on hold and came back 3 minutes later and said i was correct.
THEN, i gave her my phone number and and she canceled my service.
Good luck to you all!!!”

Getting Out Of A Cell Phone Contract?
According to the terms of Sprint and Verizon’s service contracts if they change your rates, you have the right to cancel without paying an early termination fee.
You must actually cancel the service, you can’t just cancel your contract and keep the service on a month-to-month basis. You should be able to get a representative to allow you to port your number to another provider, just be sure that they notate the account that the ETF should be waived.
There is a blackout period with all carriers after you cancel service, so you won’t be able to cancel and then resign with the same company just to get a free phone.
It may take repeated calls to customer service until you find a rep willing to release you from your contract.
Be sure to make note of the rep’s ID number in case there are any problems after your service is canceled.
Sprint:
“Beginning January 1, 2008 Sprint will asses 2 new monthly charges per line. An administrative charge of $.75 and a regulatory charge of $.20 to help defray the cost on us that other telecommunications carriers charge Sprint…The Administrative Charge is not a tax and is not an amount we are required to collect from you by law.”
Verizon:
“If you are not currently subscribed to a Messaging Package, beginning March 2, 2008, the price for sending Text Messages to the U.S., Puerto Rico, Canada and Mexico – as well as the price for receiving Text Messages from anywhere – will increase from $0.15 to $0.20 per message per recipient….If you do subscribe to a Messaging Package, your package rates will stay the same.”

Skybus is a low-cost carrier that only sells nonstop tickets. In other words if you want to get from Los Angeles to NYC you have to buy a ticket from LA to Columbus, and another ticket from Columbus to NYC.
Additionally they generally fly into smaller, secondary airports.
They sell a minimum of 10 seats on every single flight for just $10.
All of the new routes/flights currently have $10 seats available.
Within the next couple months they will be opening their summer schedule, stay tuned and you’ll be able to land yourself some $10 tickets for the peak summer travel season as well!
