Buy Lord of the Rings, get a free PDA!
http://store.palm.com/Catalog/Promotions/LOR2.asp
For $399 you can buy the DVD "Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" and get a free Palm M515. Of course, you still would need to buy a PDA you could rip the DVD to and watch it on.

Wow! $399 for Lord of the Rings? What a bargain! :roll:
Palm had better find a way to move the M1xx series before they end up with stockpiles of unwanted inventory. I say...dump them into the sea, they might make a nice artificial reef.  ukeface:
Seems rather fitting. The Lord of Declining Market Share bundles Lord of the Rings. :lol:

I wouldn't be as bad if they offered up the Platinum Series Extended Edition Collector's Gift Set instead of the boring old 2 disc version you can get at Walmart for $17.

Is that the gift set with the full trilogy? I got my Fellowship of the Ring on sale at Best Buy for 15-16 bucks (forgot to bring my 10% coupon), which came w/ some stupid rebate coupon for the gift set...

So, where currently is the best, most up to date instructions and software recomendations for ripping a DVD. Of course, these are all DVD's I own....I plan on ripping a couple to my new $12.95 Toshiba 2GB PCMCIA Card (thanks to a heads up from PocketPC Thoughts) to watch on my iPaq during a 10 hour plus flight to Fiji in early September. Or shame on me for even asking such a question? 
Thanks in advance!

parody time?
i wish i had more time this week to make some funny parodies of "free palm with purchase of x" or "free x with purchase of a palm" or "free x with pocket pc"...you get the point...
hmm, i'd also like to dig in and see if i can find some metrics on if these marketing efforts work for selling palms or kias.
cheers,
pt

Even better if I previewed the LOTR trailer and got a free Kia.
