Well said! What's the term? Built-in obsolescence? I am so very happy with my Sony 700, I just wish they would give me the dictionary feature. I would even be willing to pay for it.

Staying married to the same person? Sadly, it doesn't seem to be the norm in our disposable society. Your spouse is blessed, as are you!
