A portable video player? You can't be serious.



If by target market, you mean ....



Thanks to Shrub's administration, not only am I not allowed on a commercial airline flight, I'm not allowed on an Amtrack train either, so no I haven't. I also don't have the money to waste on a PSP. My PS2 works just fine at home, thanks.





I neither want, nor do I need a camera, so that's $100 back to me.

I mentioned the MP3/I-pod thing above, so that's another $150 back to me.

Same for the portable DVD player, which is another $100.

As for dial up internet service, I most certainly did mention it, but where I live it's included with a land line, they don't fuck you twice with your pants on.



1) You can't use the actual phone in your hotel room because, why exactly? It's not like it's a long distance call to the fucking airport to check on flight times or to the airline itself.
2) ...
3) Any halfway decent hotel will this thing called a concierge, who is a person whose sole job is to help people who stay at the hotel, whether it's calling an airline and checking flight times for them (See #1), making restaurant recommendations and reservations, giving directions (See #3), acquiring escorts/prostitutes.
4) Whatever.
5) So you're going to base a photoshoot around some shit pictures you took with a crappy camera phone? Whatever dude, your bosses must have REALLY low standards

Ok well I may be new here, but I just needed to say something about some parts of this. First of all, your arguing that you need not be online constantly, but your doing it online. That's entirely redundant. Secondly, hurray, you personally do not require a portable DVD player, iPod, or camera. Some people do. Sure we could all use our discmans, but lets be honest, they seem to weigh a metric fucking ton in comparison to a nice iPod. I have a 4 gig Nano personally, and without it I probably wouldn't be listening to music on the go. Plus, I am allowed on trains and planes, and there's no way I am going to spend an entire 8 or 12 hour trip twiddling my fucking thumbs, when I could be watching a movie or surfing the interweb. Save your opinions for yourself, don't try and project them onto the entire consumer population.
