DVD review: Releases have been slow during the past few weeks (and I've been
short of time!) but I've posted my look at the legal drama, A Civil Action,
starring John Travolta.
Silver Pronto: A common question asked by folks who have visited
the new Philips Pronto web site is "Is that really a silver Pronto -- and
where can I get it". Well, the answer is yes, that really is a silver
Pronto. When the Pronto is launched in Europe this September it'll be
available only in silver, along with a slightly modified CCF file including
a few new button labels. Unlike North America which seems stuck on the
color Black (or "midnight" or "charcoal" or "graphite" or any other impressive
marketing monkier), overseas consumer electronics companies have been
providing their equipment in either silver or gold. While I personally
detest shiny metal colors glinting in my eyes, I suppose I'm in the
minority.
Pronto contest: Don't forget to enter this month's contest -- you could
win a Pronto Desktop Charger. Just answer five easy questions
and it could be yours!
File updates: Also available, updated system CCF files
from Chris Bain, DJ Garcia and
Paul Leppart.
