well unfortunately both of those dates are incorrect. Nintendo said that a Fall 2006 release date is projected. Nothing more specific than that. I can assure you it wont be out before September though.

I got a cell phone last summer. It came with a two year contract. Would I still be able to get a new phone this summer without having to pay a termination fee, if I stayed with my old plan?

If it helps I'm on a Family Talk plan.

I rate high. Thanks!

Yeah. But if you wanted to get the discount of another contract, you'd have to add the 1, or 2 years or whatever to whatever your current contract is. But yeah, you could buy a new phone.

I'm confused why people come here seeking advice and then when they don't like the advice they send horrible feedback.

Just because you don't like an answer doesn't mean it's wrong or bad. Don't people ask for advice to get all the angles and then make an informed choice?

how do should we handle mean feedback?

I agree. Once I answered a question where someone had a broken keyboard. I told them maybe someone re-arranged the keys and they said "no, i dont think so" and gave me a 1. I'm glad some people dont enjoy giving out 1's like candy.

whenever i go on myspace i cant listen to the songs. they will always skip and i dont know why. any one have any clue why and what i can do so i can listen to the myspace songss?

I'm just guessing, but it might be the browser you're using. Try using internet explorer. If that doesn't work then use mozilla firefox.

It's better than internet explorer if you dont already have it.

I am thinking about getting an IRIVER instead of my ipod and i was wondering what people thought of theres, as well as how many songs do they hold? and are they compatible with my already existant itunes library?

What would I choose instead of the iPod? Well, if you were planning on forking out the full 300 bucks for that iRiver, you could go with the creative zen vision M. It plays very good video, music, stores photos, everything the newest iPod does.

The only problem is that it too is only compatible with Windows Media Player. If you buy a new device that only works with Windows Media Player then you should do what i said in my last answer and create a data CD and rip it into Windows Media Player.

How do you turn off an iPod mini? Seriously i thought they would make it really obvious. So what i do is put it on hold and push pause and it eventually turns off i think? Am i wasting battery this way?

Yeah, all you do is hold down the play/pause button, and it turns off. haha I couldn't figure this out when I first got my iPod either.

You know how on Internet Explorer, if you type like..um.. "advi" then the little thing under it will say "advicenators.com"? How do I get rid of that? I already cleared the history, and the history IS cleared, just the little thing underneath isn't. I really need to get rid of it. ASAP. 5's!!

Do what Donuthole said to do, haha. But to prevent this problem in the future you really shouldn't be using internet explorer. It is ridiculously slow, lets viruses and adware in, and things like that. You should take a hint from this site (look at the advertisement in the lower right hand corner) and use Mozilla Firefox. You can get it at www.getfirefox.com
To clear data with that browser, you just click

Since you like rap, and rock you'd probably like some stuff from the genre "rap-metal". It's my fav. kind of music. You should look for some songs by Korn, such as "make me bad", "twisted transistor". Please Rate!

How can I get ActiveX off my computer? It's keeping me from a lot of sites that use flash, and, to be honest, it's Goddamn annoy! What do I do?

What you should do is click
Start>control panel>add/remove programs
and then look in the list of programs for ActiveX, and click remove. This will remove the program.

i want to know when is the real realease date for zelda twilight princess.

Zelda Twilight Princess has a projected Fall '06 release date for Nintendo Gamecube. However it is now officially confirmed that if you buy a Revolution (Nintendo's next console also scheduled for a fall release) Zelda TP will be playable on the revolution with the revolution's new controller. In my opinion Zelda TP will not be delayed anymore, since they already had plenty of time to work on it and they want the holiday season sales.

I got an eletric gutar last weekend and my mom said she would pay for lessons later but in the mean time i can try to find somthing on the internet that will help me learn. Any ideas?

The tabs and things on the internet aren't very helpful since usually they don't teach you how to read music, or play the instrument correctly. They tell you how to play a few songs (incorrectly), and that's about it. So wait for the lessons.

how do i make my hair grow faster?

A good way to make your hair grow faster is to give it a trim every once in a while. If you cut your hair just a tiny amount it will make it grow faster.

well, if you don't already have one you should get an iPod. they're 300 bucks, so you'd have more than enough. Or you could get a new cell phone like a RAZR, ROKR, or SLIVR. you can see these phones at motorola.com. Please rate!
