When it comes to all-in-one home theater, the HT-SR800 has made a clean break from the pack.

Ably supported by component video switching, the HT-SR800 will handle most of the A/V components or formats currently available, as well as the spectacular quality of high-definition discs. Also, reinforcing the convenience of matched components, this package is the first to use an Audyssey room-correction technology specifically designed for integrated systems. The options - XM Radio (including 5.1 surround sound radio with Neural Surround decoding) and iPod integration-can really extend your reach, making the HT-SR800 one of the more complete home theater packages available.

Flip Video CameraI decided I wanted to step up in the techno world and start doing some video blogging, so bought the Flip Video Camcorder from Amazon for around $100 buck-a-roos.  Well, I haven’t had a chance to use it because my kids took it over instantly!  They have been making short videos faster than I can upload them to youtube.  If my nine-year-old can use it, anyone can!
