My product of the year award goes to one amazing Tool... The Sony GT and it is a Paradigm... it is a Digital Camera with a Computer attached.  At only Two Pounds it can out perform a room full of computer gear. It has the worlds first Tripod mount on a Laptop and that can speak volumes. It has a 680,000 CCD camera head built in and it has some state of the art software that can make any computer illiterate a geek or Video Editor... your choice! Read through all that has been posted and ask for the in depth feed backs and first owners reports and pricing information.  cm

Santa-meister's new GT with "Special" FireWire/USB UFO Hub
Plug this GT puppy into a favorite wireless keyboard, wireless
mouse, 17" .22 pitch monitor, USB scanner, USB printer, USB
sub-woofer audio system and FireWire Camcorder... and then;
You Will REALLY Be In The 21st Century.

I am willing to predict Here & Now that sometime during  
2001 we will see Flat THIN monitors under
$500, maybe  
even Under
$300 !  Imagine That... OK, back to my GT...

This Laptop at Two Pounds and about 1.3" thin is a Video Editing  Miracle... why lug around 8 pounds of brick, err notebook anymore?  

For some first owner feed back of the Sony PCG-
GT, some even using the new DCR-PC110 Zeiss Lens and 256MB Memory Stick just e-mail me for new 2001 Holiday in Depth DV Report: HERE            


I have a Heads Up;  Supplies Are Now Back In My Arkansas Source,  I'm doing my best to find more dealers here.   Too many of you decided one trial set of cables was not enough  and the re-orders are depleting inventories as fast as they come in.  This is a 3 piece set the Millennium FireWire Cable

 

and Yes they work just great with USA NTSC  and European PAL systems and with Computers, Printers, Scanners and the rest that have the new 6 pin  connection & will change on either or even both ends to fit ALL of the Video  4 Pin connections like Pana, Canon, Sony, Sharp and JVC equipment.  They are Ultra Deluxe clear heavy vinyl in appearance much like High End Audio Cables and are also very soft and pliable like phone cords... not TV coaxial! 4 Types: 14 Feet Long; also 100 Foot Long & NEW  mini 12" Foot Longs and a VERY Special Order 164' Long Lines IEEE1394 Millennium FireWire. There is Now Available a Six (6) port In/Out FireWire Hub/Repeater...just ask. They can ship second day US Priority Mail COD.  If you're interested contact HERE for Who, When, Where & How Much.
