Enjoy DVD and video with your new Motorola mobile phone: CLIQ, Droid and so

For the declining aristocracy MOTOROLA, any small profit has belongs to rare good. So when the company recently posted surprise third-quarter profits, Motorola stuffs are filled with happy. Namely the MOTOROLA finally successfully achieved the quarter profit. MOTOROLA has revealed the company is expected to launch less mobile phone in the fourth quarter of the year, this basically to get rid of some "cannot profit" failure. So, armed with Cliq, Droid and the MotoBlur interface, it just might be a new day for Motorola.
The Droid phone, codenamed Sholes — named for the inventor of the typewriter — was expected to arrive at Verizon this month, and now has become the focus of attention. Meanwhile T-Mobile is offering Motorola’s CLIQ, an Android-based, MOTOBLUR-running, physical keyboard phone. It is available now for $199 (for current T-Mobile customers).

Transferring Cine film to DVD HELP!

Hello,

I have fired up the family 8mm cine projector (Bell & Howell 1956 vintage) and am trying to video family films to put on DVD before the film falls to bits!

I have the video camera about 2 metres from the screen and have used the zoom to fill the frame (Panasonic NV DA1B, old but OK!) but the results when recorded on my DVD recorder( Panasonic DMR EX77) although watchable are darker than the cine image and twilight scenes almost completely black.

I had the camera set to AUTO.

I know there are firms that convert but the prices are way above what we would like to spend.

Can anyone suggest how I can record a better picture or raise the light level?

Thanks.

Brian

11 Miles to Paradise

Hey everyone, a buddy of mind, Joe Trivigno, has been working on this documentary for some time now titled " 11 Miles to Paradise" After 2 years in the making It's finally going to be released tomorrow Oct 16. I'm not sure if it's coming to all theaters but it will be in major cities soon. Also the DVD is coming out shortly. He tells the story of the legendary Kalalau Valley in Kauai,HI. I have not yet hiked the 11 mile trail along the Na Pali coast to the valley but plan to in May. Take a look at this trailer, you may just start making travel plans today. I have lots information available about the trail that can be tricky to find so don't hesitate to ask.

Vantastic Video Entry- Please vote and comment!

Hi everyone, I write a travel blog Pommie Travels and I have just entered the Vantastic Adventures competition with World Nomads. The idea is simple, they choose 7 couples to do seven 'legs' of the Vantastic tour. You get a campervan, money for fuel and a video camera and have 6 weeks to shoot a video of your travels. Whoever wins gets 10,000 AUD.

Please take a look at my 2-minute entry video here and if you like it go to the World Nomads group on Youtube and vote for it!!

Thanks,

Victoria
