Hi Paul,

Sounds like "life" is crazy busy for you. Did you get your e-mail address to Tracy (winotracy) for the newsletter? It has all the meat & potatoes of everything...really an outstanding resource. If not, send Tracy an e-mail and she'll add you to her list. Also, I'll bet Renee' (piglet33) would be willing to make nametags for you. She is a dear, and so creative. Consider asking her in a PM.

Hang in there, hoping for quieter times for you and yours soon!

Barbara

Save it for the upcoming Exchange!LOL

Geez, you guys are so lucky to get this stuff!

If I tried to order, my government would zing me for the Duty and Taxes so that I would end up paying thru the nose!

Scratch

The problem is everyone will have this stuff! Can you see us passing it back and forth?

My cousin died today so may make the trek to Boston...he lived in NH but worked in Boston and all the relatives are still in that area. Memorial service on Wed.

Barbara, how far in advance can priority seating arrangements be made for DL? We're thinking of making them in advance of the May trip. Thanks!

Bonnie, so sorry for your loss. Our thoughts are with you.

Tracy and Bill

Anyone have these phones? From another site:

Motorola is running a special where you get a 2-pack of the Disney 2.4 ghz cordless phones (39.99 each on amazon.com list price of 59.99) for $15! You have an option of 3 different style packs:

2 Classic (Red) Models http://commerce.motorola.com/cgi-bi...410&prmenbr=126&deals_cgrfnbr=237337&zipcode=

2 Princess (Pink) Models http://commerce.motorola.com/cgi-bi...412&prmenbr=126&deals_cgrfnbr=237337&zipcode=

1 Regular and 1 Princess Phone http://commerce.motorola.com/cgi-bi...414&prmenbr=126&deals_cgrfnbr=237337&zipcode=

This seems like a really good deal and our main 900MHz cordless phone is dying, so the timing is perfect!

I thought I had read in a magazine or on the net or somewhere that the 2.4GHz band intereferes with wireless internet connections. Can anyone confirm? These Disney phones are analog; maybe just 2.4 digital intereferes with wireless? I hope someone can answer - I'd sure appreciate any help!

I just asked DH (he's a computer guy). He said they do interfere because they run on the same frequency. He said you have to change the channel that you phone runs on. It might fix it. It didn't with ours...maybe that's the problem with chat???

There's some discussion of this on the DL board. The CM info states 60 days in advance for all PS, however people have called for a PS and been told that the ones inside the parks can only be made 6 weeks not 60 days. This is actually the next article I'm working on for the other site is restuarants and dining options.

On another thread a May repo cruiser said Disney has told them 2 formal and 1 semi formal nights.

You can also change the channel that your wireless router uses. Though we just finally got fed up with our POS belkin and broke down and bought a linksys and have had NO problems with the phones interfering with the wireless. Anyone want a belkin router?

There is a 5 dollar off coupon code at Mousesavers.com, but I can't get the order to go through. eep getting server busy or unable to connect. I had the 2.4MHZ discussion on the CB a couple of months ago, there was an EXPERT who told me I was wrong, there is no interference, how dare I give this information out. I was just repeating what I was told by the guy in bestbut when I bought the wireless router and cards. I am going to try to order them anyway, they match my 2 way radios, and they are very cute.

DH has made it to ATL and should be about ready to take off for San Diego. I hope he has nice weather and that we do to.

DD, I am sorry for your loss. Take care getting up heah, maybe the white stuff will stay south and you will leave it behind. I hope the family has good memories of this man.

Bonnie, So sorry for your loss. If you do make it up to our fair state, we'll probably just be digging out from the latest deluge of snow. Boston has nowhere to put the stuff. Hopefully, they've enjoyed the brief period of meliting that we've had so they now has some room for it. Thank goodness it's almost March 1. Only one more month of this stuff.

Bonnie,
My deepest sympathy!

Hi Paul,

Also, I'll bet Renee' (piglet33) would be willing to make nametags for you. She is a dear, and so creative. Consider asking her in a PM.

Barbara

Paul - Barbara is right. I have no problem making name tags for you and whoever is travelling with you. Just PM me with the first names of everyone you want name tags for, their DIS names (if they don't have any, I will use yours) and your mailing info so I can mail them to you.

Thanks,

Reneé
