    Treo 650 v 700

    My company is currently evaluating replacements for the blackberry. Well they where until the lawsuit get settled. But we looked at the treo and a number of other WinOS based PDA/Phones. I would take a look at the Motorola Q it should be coming out soon unless you use verizon since they have to screwed with it to get it locked down and working on their network. As for the difference between the 650 and the 700 well it really is a perference wether you like palm OS or WinOS.
  4. My father-in-law sells leather to the furniture and other industries...In terms of quality one of the companies he sells to has to kept a american manager over there at all times to watch over the quality...If nobody from the company was there quality was a crap shoot....also china does not produce most of the raw materials...the wood is cut down here the leather is made in italy and then transported to china made and then shipped back to the states...yet it still costs less and making it here
  5. I mostly ride at Mountain Creek.....Even though just like Jack most people would not know what an alpine board is I still lock my board up all the time
  6. Its on the way up to Hunter pass it a couple of time....I dont even think its open anymore
  7. I would go with B and C....since when I am riding on ice. I bend the board more and apply more pressure with my toes/heels. I would want the best edge where that pressure was being applied
  8. When you get that camera up and working send me a couple of pics too jdgang@gmail.com
  9. I cant remember which movie it was from either "Fear of Flat Planet" or "Riders on the Strom".....but in one of those it was "A freestyle moment with Jeff Brushie" in between all of the big mountain riding....But that clip brought back all the memories of when I first starting to ride
  10. have not done real spring riding in a long time.....but nothing better than hitting stratton where its bullet proof up top and pure slush at the bottom.....love it
  11. I use both equally write and eat lefty play all sports righty
  12. I was sitting on the snow waiting for a jump went to go rool over to push myself up and heard my knee go "POP"...
  13. MCL is the outside with the LCL..ACL is the ligament that runs inside through the knee along with the PCL. and you dont have to get surgery either...I believe it was John Elway who tore both ACL's in high school and never got either fixed...If you work it out enough the muscle on the outside is enough to hold the knee together. by the way I love google... :lol:
  14. and one more thing to add...make sure you tell your doctor that you lead an active lifestyle. He should prescribe to you a brace...mine is the donjoy defiance..its the one that all of the professional sports people use...I went to a place in denville to get it. they measure your leg and make it just for you..I most likely dont need it anymore but I still where it whenever I ride. which dr are you using..I use Dr David Feldman out of St. Claires he was really good.
  15. Did the same thing in 1998..The first couple of days totally suck. Start your physical therapy as soon as possible but dont let your phyiscal therapist push you too hard the first couple of visits. After PT keep on working out the knee yourself. I had the surgery in Jan and if I had done what the doctor told me in terms of working it out I would have been back riding by december of that year. As for the normal activities ie walking..I think it took me about a month and a half to get off the crutches. I was driving in about two weeks.
  16. I ride an old pair of Burton Outland pants and whatever the name burton gave their pants before AK but after Outland...I have found that the burton top of the line stuff (AK) gives good value for the money spent
  17. thanks for the replies....didnt realize that my spelling was really that bad.
  18. Does any have a website or store that sells boards hanger...I have to get my boards from the floor to the wall...Need to by ablke to mount ot cider blocks
  19. my friend had a volant 163 delam on him in the front he drilled three holes thourgh the board and bolted them....There is a picture of the board in one of the thread here.....
  20. I ride the creek maybe this weekend in fact...sat or sun morn...as for a board for the creek I got a speed 160 that just small enough for the mountain but I have seen alot of bigger boards on it.
  21. agree all of my last couple of burton boards where either stamped "second" or "demo" and they are all fine

  23. I just read that article and have to agree with it....anything that is judged is not a sport but a competitions since it judged subjectively by us....Here is the article Link
