Be sure to also check out the bags from Think Tank Photo... they are made by a group of two bag designers and two photographers and are rather innovative. A bag like their Rotation 360 might be a nice choice since you could get your camera out of it without having to take the pack off. It's also...

I'm currently considering the purchase of an EarthRoamer and have talked to three couples that own them. All three said they can go for up to four days with two people on the cassette. One said he would vastly prefer the cassette since he can dump at any toilet. You can also carry a second...

FYI: I just received an e-mail from EarthRoamer announcing that they will now offer the XV-LT on a Dodge 5500 chassis as a special order item. That means you can get a Cummins diesel setup.

Sorry, I couldn't read a rant that long... that writer needs to know how to get to the point. I teach photographers Photoshop all the time and am amazed how how ****ty of shots people come up with who have the best gear... 1Ds MarkII's with great class... but the photo isn't worth printing...

Here's the only review I've found that really describes what it's like to use an iPhone... all the others don't really get to the point of having you know what the device is really like (other than compared to existing devices). If you're on the fence about the iPhone, then this might help you...

If anyone is thinking of an iPhone, here are a few things you might want to read before you run out and get one: 10 things to know before you buy And here's a list of reviews from major sources. (be sure to read PCmag's review because it is the most in-depth and makes some good points about...

Scott, this post claims to have a method to use an iPhone on a prepaid setup. Here's the text: How to use prepaid service with the iPhone: Getting functionality without a contract TUAW has instructions for using prepaid service with the iPhone. Essentially, connect a just-purchased iPhone (or...

I just ran into this online today: http://www.campausa.com/

Grim... what is UMTS? SOCALFJ... sell 500K+ of an item in a weekend and you're bound to have some problems. AT&T said they are making adjustments to the activation process. Mine activated on the first try and was the easiest sync I've ever done to get my contacts, calendar, photos, tunes...

I think it was PCWorld that put the iPhone through a stress test... they put it in a zip lock bag with a bunch of car keys and jingled it around, then mashed the keys into it (since the earlier test left if looking brand new). they also tried to manually "key" the screen by scratching back and...

I also bought an iPhone last night. I called the nearest store at 11pm and they said they still had them and that there was no line. You can check to see if you local Apple store still has them in stock at this page All the stores in Colorado, California and New York still had them (those are...

Dave Said: But other than emissions and performance modification, a diesel engine itself probably will burn whatever you dump in the tank. I wonder if there are ways to work around the emissions systems? I'd rather keep the vehicle street legal in the U.S. and modifying emissions systems is...

It sounds like many (most/all?) 2008 diesel powered trucks sold in the U.S. require the new Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel that is now available across the country. This change is designed to reduce emissions and I'm sure it a good thing for the environment. Availability of the fuel in the...

Mark... thanks for those extra shots... would love to see the interior of one of those. KMR- I haven't found a vehicle I could live on quality and space-wise that will fit in a container... a unimog with pop-up top would be great, but it's also overly tall. I'm going to be talking to someone...

I replied to this post earlier today, but don't know why my post didn't show up. Lightroom is a separate product from Photoshop and you do not get it free with Photoshop. They had to make it a separate product to support the development costs and justify settings up a separate team to design...

im currentley using cs2 on my intel mac and will be upgrading soon so we can use lightroom again. i loved lightroom which is included in cs3 so it is worth it to us since my wife is a photographer. Ligthroom does not come bundled with Photoshop... they are two separate products. Worth it...

I just finished reading the book called "The 4-hour Work Week" (it should be named something more like "Lifestyle Design") and have found it to be life changing. I am now investigating the idea of selling my bus and jeep and living full-time on an Earthroamer XV-LT. I just received the brochure...

I live full-time and love it. I've been living a mobile lifestyle for over a year now. I didn't take the route you mentioned though. I live on a 40' Prevost bus and pull a Jeep Liberty behind it. I can park the bus and then take the jeep into a more remote area. I like the layout of the Earth...
