Unfortunately in order to match the online prices Best Buy's customer service staff is required to log onto the website from the store cash registers to verify the price. A printed version of the website isn't enough to guarantee the price.
What I want to know is when can we play something other than WMV files on the 360 media center. I realize there are tricks to do so, but my modded original xbox can play pretty much anything I throw at it without issue. Why can't a machine significantly more powerful do so?
I must say, Wizards did an incredible job improving D&D with the changes they made going from advanced to 3.0 and then eventually 3.5. I began to play advanced d&d only about a year before the 3.0 launch and got to witness the new life that was injected into the industry. A much more streamlined ruleset and (fairly) well playtested books made me into the RPG addict I am today.
It's an interesting idea, but what happens to our biological clocks when we are exposed to sunlight 24hrs a day. People with seasonal affective dissorder would probably go nuts. And think of the tans we could get.
Finally we start down the road to the Singularity. I give it another 40 years till humans no longer exist. As I see it this (and the creation of AI) is the only way for our civilization to continue to grow without killing ourselves.

Guess I will need to get me one of these sooner than expected

I could have sworn that investors dumping money into companys with failed buisness models was something that ended years ago.
