I need to get on MEM-AMS before it goes away.

I've already stated that I'll just connect to the A330, wherever it may depart (a positive component of not being hub-based).

I've now seen the replay. I do not think that the angle they had was conclusive enough to overturn the call, but I'd say it was fan interference. Just like I thought it was was when I saw it live from 300 feet away.

Nicely done. ^^

I really do like the concept.

Thanks. It was really fun to do.

I have enjoyed my experiences on the NW 330s, both upfront and in back.

Back at IAH for a flight to LAX for work. Glad it's so gorgeous here today, and all flights are on time. What a pleasant change from my flights last Monday, Friday, and yesterday. And with a B-up on a 753 and double EQMs, I have nothing to complain about.

Any update on Box Hibachi? Are we still shooting for the 30th?

So, do you like the Sony more than the Toshiba?

We got a 32" 1080 Sony for the bedroom and it is more than fine. We have a high-end home theater store in Houston (I think they are in DFW too) Modia, that has an outlet store near my office. I got the Sony there for about $300 less than Best Buy.

(Oh, and they didn't physically stop me from leaving the building like Best Buy does to some boxers. :p)

I kind of like the Sony deal because Sony components are "aware" of each other.

Who has an all-in-one remote? Comments, complaints, smart remarks?

Did you fly back to ATL before going back to IAH?

No. Was in the Houston area for a family event today.

I haven't sat in Y in a 330 and doing so would violate my newly-implemented "no more than four-hour stage length in Y rule".

The Logitech Harmony line of remotes is quite lovely. They are somewhat pricey but they tend to be awesome. Lots of reviews online for each model.

Is there bluetooth capability for the PS3 on any of the remotes?

He wants his wife to quit calling him at work asking "which remote do I need to . . . ?" I have at least figured out how to use the Wii all by myself ;) I still have issues with our hddvd player on our big tv which can be challenging once the nanny leaves (and it took her months). I don't consider myself that tech challenged but having five remotes for said tv tends to overwhelm me and I don't use it enough to figure it all out :o

It was great to see you last night and glad you made it! Enjoy hot LA!

One remote that controls a box and a big screen is enough to throw my mother for a loop - overall great human being that she is, the CABLE and TV selector buttons throw her off. A second remote for the DVD just gums up the works.

Don't feel bad about non-techness. This very afternoon my mother called me and said that she had a problem with her email. OK, fine. Problem? No pictures displaying. OK, I told her it was a Comcast problem and not anything to do with her computer...to which I get the response of....


wait for it...


"I'm not on Comcast; I'm on Outlook." :rolleyes:
