Oh, a few sites to check out:

Still thinking about how the digital camera is going to work over there. Not sure how I'm going to be able to charge it. I'd like to be able to take pics and post them on Ofoto or some other website, but just not sure if it's practical. Researching a camera, and MUST buy an iPod, don't think that I could survive without the music to keep me alive..........
