Have used on 700 and 55, not 99 - there is vignetting at 11mm with two filters so you have to remove UV if you use a PL, but it's a good lens for the money.

G Nerd Boy G,Wow! So your order was placed on the 13th too. Wonder what you did to get yours so soon? Also I cant seem to get the a9 pi discount to show up. Any tips?

I know its ridiculous. I had been trying to hunt one down also and finally got my hands on one. My suggestion would be to try Newegg and J&R because both have options to request an automatic notification when the product comes in stock. Both retailers had units in stock last week but sold out very quickly. Last I checked Newegg had an ETA of 11/22 and J&R told me last week they'd be getting more within 1-2 weeks but they allow you to add it to cart and pre-purchase now which will ensure one of the units in that next shipment will be yours. Between these two choices I'd go with J&R if at all possible only because there'll be no tax and free shipping and as a bonus you can use Amex points if you happen to have any and purchase through shopamex.com. The strategy that worked for me was to signup for auto-alerts from both of these retailers and I also created a Google alert to be e-mailed anytime a new post appeared that included "Aspire Timeline AS1810T" as well as a Bountii alert. I know it sounds like overkill but I was concerned it would only get more difficult to get one the closer we got to X-Mas so I chose to cover all possible bases and it worked-got one of these puppies in my hands in less than a week. Anyway best of luck - I assure you its worth the wait it's a great little machine.

I went ahead and put in my pre-order for the 554 a few days ago. Seems like a good bet that they'll start to flow along the system in the next few days. I may even spring for some 3D specs, just to try it out.

So far it's been pretty smooth...any time it's looked jagged, it's been a connection speed issue more than the camera. I agree with a previous answer, if you're looking for something with a lot of movement, there's probably a better camera out there, but for basic Skype, etc, I've been really happy with it!

Marie, have you heard when the Cowon A3 will be released in the U.S.?I've tried looking for information on the official cowon site, but there isn't any mention of an upcoming A3.

How can you tell which firmware you currently have? I bought my A3 on ebay, used.No problems. I did some tentative poking around in the menus, but can find no obvious way to see the current firmware version. Thanks

No, I can't argue with that and now i see it's down to 119. I'd still probably go with the A570IS for 198 though over this tempting deal. It has the Image Stabilization, upgraded Digic III and you get a 2GB card included for the next week or so which essentially knocks 20 bucks off the price.

Thanks for the feedback Aero. I'm in the same boat: ordered mine mid-June and waiting (not) patiently.

The 24-70mm f2.8 Sony/CZ is a full frame lens and will complement your A99 very well. I used the 28-75 SAM and can't believe the clarity moving to the 24-70CZ with my A99. You will capture native high resolution 24MP images, not the cropped lower resolution images you are most likely seeing now. The clarity of the 24-70CZ is so amazing and the MP has allowed me to capture images and crop like I am using a 70-200mm lens. Very versatile lens, primary lens my on A99. If you can afford this lens, you won't regret it.

Shad, since I have only used the 999 I really cannot compare it to the 899, but suspect some of the features I have found useful on the 999 most likely do not exist on the 899. There are some very good features driven by what I believe has to be complex software programing that I am sure do not exist on the 899.

I just got my asus eee 1000h, installed sl.Lowest settings, before I start doing any tweaks, I'm getting about 7fps.Haven't got to try out the slvoice yet, but I can click on things inside the enviroment, which I couldn't ever get to work on the org hp mini note, I think that was becuase the hp mini note had a via chipset, which just wasn't that widely apectedI have a 2 gig ram card coming in soon, and I hope that gets me a few more fps out of my system.Will try to post again when I get that installed and tested

Had mine over 6 months, I am gamer on a flight sim and F-1 sim and I run it hard on a Radeon R9 280X, no problems. I love it.

Hmmm, now I can't find any mention of a release date. I've been looking at a ton of tablets, so I could be wrong about Feb, but I'm pretty sure it was "early next year". Maybe I read it on one of the replies to questions on about the current version. Were you able to cancel your order for the one that's available now? I wish I would have ordered it when it was $199.

I have an a6000 and now I just bought the RX10, used from Amazon Warehouse deals for under $800 and it's so much better image quality wise then say, an a6000 with kit lens or 16mm F2.8 pancake lens. I have both cameras now and love them both but if you needed to pick just one, here is my recommendations... If you are a VIDEO person, get the RX10. If still image quality with fast accurate AF is your deal breaker, an a6000 with the 18-105 F4 G lens is a killer combo. NEX-7 vs a6000??? I sold my a77 and didn't like the NEX-7 or a65 becuase of horrible low light, high ISO image results. The a6000 with same 24megapixels + new bionz-x processor = excellent low light camera, close to a99's low light performance in stills. No mic input (stay with NEX-7) if that's a deal breaker but overall the a6000 is better than the NEX-7 in almost every way, including the new alpha style menu structure.

I can only speak for the AMD Graphics Card version of this laptop. This laptop exceeds my expectation when it comes to games. With some graphics options twist you can get a really good experience and fps with your games. You won't be getting 60fps but a stable 30fps in a lot of games. You will see some lag if there is more going on but that quickly goes away. In regards to multimedia use this machine is a beast. You can do everything from gaming, movies, word-processing, and online use all at once, seriously. I do not know how the NVIDIA performs but I can say I am more than satisfied with how AMD's switchable graphics performs. I would recommend, if possible, to upgrade to a faster hard drive. I found that load times can take a little longer than you want them to but you will get used it. I would recommend looking at this version of the laptop which has a dedicated graphics card and may improve your gaming experience. http://www.amazon.com/Acer-Aspire-V5-552G-X414-15-6-inch-Laptop/dp/B00DKFFLMY/ref=pd_sim_pc_5
