I've been waiting for Coded Arms for..umm...so very long...and...ummmm...WHOO HOO!

After a botched shipment (USPS said it was delivered...but I never got it) I finally got Boxwave Screen Protectors for my and my gf's DSs. Here's what I've decided after installing two of them and spent a little over a week playing with it installed: It's a quality product, but it takes some...

Yeah, they apparently sold out of the Pink this week. But last week I emailed them and asked if they were going to restock (I was afraid they'd sell out before I had the money to place my order) and they said that yes, they planned to restock immediately. They haven't had pink listed for three...

Less than a week. I ordered last Thursday, got them yesterday (Tuesday). US games work just fine. Other than the Japanes manual, it's identicle to the US version once you switch the language to English.

Got'em! They look great! It tooka few minutes for me to figure out how to make them speak English, but luckily the steps it forces you through on first boot-up are pretty obvious. After that, it was just a matter of finding the right menu (hint: look for the Globe). I'm very satisfied.

They're selling the import colors for $144.99 and the Titanium for $147.99. They don't currently list the Electric Blue color at the site. Shipping on a single DS would be about $7.50. On my entire order of two DSs + two games, the shipping was about $8.50. Compare that to the aforementioned...

Check it: I placed the order this morning and it has already shipped. And that's with three of the four items listed as shipping within "1-2 days" and only one at "within 24 hours." That's pretty damn impressive.

I'd rather have the color I wanted without the game than a color I didn't want and the hassle of selling a game to make back a few bucks . Even if this way had been a little more expensive, I would likely have done it. The money isn't much of an issue really, but the fact that this way did turn...

I don't have espeially easy access to a digital camera, but if you just want to see pics, check here: http://www.gameexpress.com/product_detail.cfm?UPC=JB4902370509

Yep. Memphis.

One graphite and one pink, both cheaper than I could buy a Titanium locally (9.25% sales tax here) even after shipping. I'm losing out on the free Mario 64, but I don't like platformers, so no big deal. I'll let y'all know how gameexpress does on shipping speed, etc., just for future reference...

It's not the bottom dolar soultion, but you can get some really great deal in the clearance section at Crutchfield.com. I got the outgoing model of the Blaupunkt Casablance, which was normally $300+ for $129. Like I said, it's more than $60, certainly, but still some good deals to be had.

I've been looking to import a graphite DS and they seem to have the lowest price (with reasonable shipping rates too) but I've never heard of them. The ratings I've found online for them are good, but I've known some unsavory businesses to pad those with fake reviews before, so I'm looking for...

Damn. Wish I had seen that before I ended up buying a wheel on eBay. BTW, for anyone interested, the best deal on the DFP I found was at NewEgg: $109+$9 Shipping. That's lower than many of the eBay auctions I found (since so many of them were charging $20 or $25 for shipping). If you're looking...

Anyone know where the best deal currently is on a riving Force Pro wheel, either by itself or bundled with Gran Turismo 4?
