Other than the occasional hurricane that destroys all in its path, I loved living in South Florida. It was warm, pretty cheap, lots to do, and other than some cranky old people, t…

rural areas have cheap cost of living, try one of those.

Have you thought about Omaha? It's really a great city. Not too small, but not overly huge. (about 450,000 when you add in all the suburbs (Millard, Bellevue, Papillion, LaVist…

I lived in Omaha for 6 years. It is not a bad place to live and I would consider moving back there if I ever lost my job. Clean, friendly, relatively low cost of living...

RE: Omaha My brother went to school there, met his now-wife there, and currently lives there. He loves the place, and I do enjoy visiting. I would recommend it to anyone who wan…

Look north of Austin in the Interstate 35 (I35) corridor around Temple, TX to south of Waco if you are considering Central Texas. The Austin commuting area is forever expanding plu…

I live in Austin and love it. I've lived here since 1999, and I'm a freshman at UT. Perhaps my views are a bit biased since I'm a college guy in a college town; but regardless, we …

You should definitely think about Compton, Ca.

A few thoughts: 1. In these red state/blue state times, I'd live closer to your peeps. 2. Cost of living is an illusion. Where cheaper homes can be found, fewer jobs as well. …

In December 2004, I received my second iPod grudgingly by Apple's service dept. But between then and now, it has acted oddly at times. On three or four occasions, the most recent b…

I recently installed an Alpine CDA-9830 with an iPod adapter in my car. it's okay. Not real thrilled with it. The file management system of the Alpine units go to pieces when there…

I ordered my adapter and have not received it for my pioneer Avic-N1... I really can't wait to install it and find out how everthing works out. I hope I don't get the 255 songs lim…

I have the alpine ipod adapter as well... I tried using it, but the interface was not planned out very well, it's slow and difficult to use... Hopefully version 2 of the adapter wi…

What's this "255 song limit" that you guys are talking about? I love Alpine's stuff, and have grown to more or less despise Pioneer's car audio equipment. I really don't want to …

Just to throw out another possibility, Kenwood released their iPod controller. It may not be the most feature rich one out there, but it does the easy simple stuff well. It displ…

Now that the shuffle is out and hanging around peoples necks I was wondering what I would do with the headphones when not in use. Looks like I found a hand and cool solution: http…

my shuffle has a silicon case that grips the cord so it works well as a cord minder. i call it a smarter wrap since i didn't waste more money on yet another ipod accessory.
