Arlington Row in England Photo and enhancement by Chris duffy
Like I said before, I’m getting excited about our upcoming trip to England, hence the picture of Arlington Row from our previous trip there. I went out this week end and purchased another 128MB media card and 2 extra camera batteries. I also was looking for something (had to be smaller than a laptop, because I don’t want to lug my laptop to England) that I could plug in my media card from the camera each day and download the pictures on so that I’d then have an empty media card for pictures the next day. In addition I thought it would be great if that gismo had an LCD screen for viewing the pictures somewhat larger than the 7/8″ x 1 1/4″ display on my digital camera. I was beginning to think they didn’t exist and that I would suggest that to our R&D department for a future product. But alas, someone had already beat me to inventing it. They DO exist, they’re just too expensive for me to get one. They’re a portable hard drive. They make them with and without LCD displays. The ones without the LCD displays are around $250 and the ones with them start at $500. Needless to say, I opted to buy an extra media card instead.

I vote that you take the laptop..that way, you can log on and update us on your trip….almost as good as being there…
I am looking to buy a good camera……can you suggest one? I would like to sell some things onEbay. Have any tips?
I have a feeling when you get back you are going to post England pictures for months to come… wink Okay by me. That way I’ll get to see England too. That’s a great one today. :goodjob:
Such a great little cottage picture again. I could use some more picture cards and batteries myself. Hoping for some additional this summer.
:sunny:Can’t wait to hear about and s@@ all of it! :coolman:
Media cards are cheap compared to laptops and those hard disk devices. Looking forward to your new bevvy of photos.
