Miller Park - Brewer's in Legos - With Retractable Roof!

Rainbow Six Vegas 2 is out!




I love this game! Can't wait to get the new one!
Anyway, I have attached some screenshots of the original version on the 360.
You can scan your face and map it onto your character for multiplayer fun!

New Gadget! - Apple iPod Touch

 What can I say...  I love this thing! This is my first Apple product, and I am completely impressed. I purchased the 32 Gig version. My new little media monster holds all 3,000 photos, and my entire CD library. I sure am glad I did that cd to mp3 project a few years ago!


I also purchased the video out cable. Fantastic! The quality is near DVD, certainly good enough for my video podcasts that I watch! I have converted a few DVDs onto the iPod too.  I can't believe the amount of use I am getting out of this thing.

The WIFI is great too. Although battery life is a bit to be desired when you are on the net! The safari web browser beats my Verizon WM5 phone hands down! Having a real web browser instead of the fake one Microsoft gives you is a real treat.

If you decide to get one for yourself, check out the web apps. So far I have web apps for Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. Also found a neat space app called iSkyGaze!

You've probably seen the videos about the user interface of the Touch, but I have to say it is better than I thought it would be. It is fast, and clean! I can find my music easily!

My youngest daughter grabbed it from me (she is 5)! She rotated it around a few times then took her finger and swiped across the screen. Within a few seconds she found her Hanna Montana CD and began playing it! This says a lot about the usability. It was the first time she had it in her cute little hands! 

Completely amazing!
