You would probably have to be as OCD as myself to appreciate this little gem. The plastic "cord" on the OEM caddy gas cap is too short and stiff and keeps falling off the holder when putting gas in the car. Voila', replace the gas cap with the Stant cap which stays in place and has a built in retractable flap. It seals tight enough to allow pressurized systems to remain leak-proof. Probably the best $16 I've spent on this car so far:

I picked up a inexpensive set of noise canceling headphones for a few plane trips that I have coming up. I got them half off for $50 and they aren't too bad. The sound quality is nothing to write home about but with my few tests of the noise canceling capabilities of them they should work well on the plane.

I traded my Sony BDP-S570 for the BDP-S770 BD player. Total price difference = $65 Canadian. Did I strike a good deal? ...I don't have a single clue! Experts only allowed to reply. ...And sorry for the typos and all that Jazz...

Sweet, but those mirrors are all but useless.
Bob, no comment as I am no expert.

Experts only allowed to reply. ...And sorry for the typos and all that Jazz... Sony CD player experts or just experts in general. It is very tough to find out the differences between these two players... Of course, the main ones are easy: The BDP-S770 includes a lighted remote control (not needed with an Harmony one), a better build player with a cleaner front face (cosmetics only), and from several reports the 570 and 770 are the exact same after that. BUT! From a UK review, the 770 has a slight edge on Audio and Video quality. Plus it is the faster player by few more seconds at loading discs, and also at accessing Internet streaming features(AVS forums). HERE => Sony BDP-S770 Review From What Hi*Fi?- I knew that I was asking quite a bit here at the Lounge to the members on this tough subject; and only people with knowledge based on extensive research, or first hand experience on these two players could have answered my question. But this is home to me, so I went ahead and asked! Now, I guess I'll be the one to truly evaluate that question myself! But so far I can honestly say that at $169 US for the 770 and $138 US for the 570, people should get the 770, I think! And the newer 80 series are inferior! _____________________________ * When you play an SACD from these players, through the HDMI output, the DSD stream is output at a sampling frequency rate of 176.4 Khz (twice the Oppo BD players); but when you use a receiver or a pre/pro that can accept the DSD stream at this sampling rate, it says 44.1 Khz! Now, if someone here can explain this to me, I would greatly appreciate. ...Jim Milton? ...Or anyone else? ...What does your receiver or pre/pro indicate when you click on [Info]?
