What are the regulations on taking electronics in hand baggage onto a plane?

Q. I wanted to take a digital camera, an MP3 player, a mobile phone, a Nintendo DS and a battery recharger (recharges AA batteries). But are these things allowed to be taken on board an aircraft in hand luggage?

A. Hi,

I travel extensively all over the world and this is what my carry on baggage consists of:-
1 laptop with charger and accesories like portable hard drive
1 cannon rebel digital Camera with batteries inside the camera
4 AA rechargeable batteries along with the charger
1 PSP
i also carry 2 cellphones on me one of which is an iphone.

i have never been stopped at any of the airports. i have travelled through the following airports in the past one year.

Amsterdam, Paris, Singapore, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Cebu, Manila, Newark(EWR), Costa Rica, Houston, Westpalm beach, Tampa, Orlando, barcelona, La Coruna and from all major airports in India.

i am scheduled to travel to mauritius and johannesburg and intend to use the same carry on.

you only have to take your laptop out of the bag and nothing else for security check. In india you may have to take your camera out at certain times.

Regards,

What is the difference between Nintendo DSi and PSP? Which one would you prefer?
Q. I am deciding on getting either one of these game console, I'd would like to know what are the differences between them. Which do you think is better? Which would you prefer?

A. Well it depends whether you like to go on the internet, listen to many music, play games. Or if you rather just play games, take pictures, and record sounds. The PSP is a really good console for people who want to play a game with really good graphics. (i.e. God of War or Call of Duty) The PSP is very portable, but the con is that it wont be able to fit in your pocket. The internet speed on the PSP is quite good, so good that it seems as if you are on your computer's internet! The PSP uses two 333 MHz MIPS32 R4000-based CPUs [97], a GPU with 2 MB onboard VRAM running at 166 MHz, and includes 32 MB main RAM and 4 MB embedded DRAM in total.[98][7] The hardware was originally forced to run more slowly than it was capable of and most games ran at 222 MHz.[99] However, with firmware update 3.50 on May 31, 2007, Sony removed this limit and allowed new games to run at a full 333 MHz.[100]


The Nintendo DSi is really good, but to some it might not be the best. The camera on here is 0.3 megapixels, though it shows up absolutely clear on the DSi. The games are really expensive in my opinnion, for the good games they are about $30-40 US. The sound recorder is great, you will probably play with it for about 2 minutes and then it gets boring. There is a DSi shop though for games and accesories for your DSi (i.e. clock, calculator) The internet has to be downloaded in the DSi shop, but im sure it is free. The internet laggs which would be another con to the DSi, the speed of this internet would be the speed of your phone's internet. (not including the IPhone) There is an SD Card slot in which you can upload sounds or songs to your computer and put them into the SD and listen to them in your DSi. The sounds all have to be in AAC format. I know that you cant take pictures from your other camera and then put them in the DSi (i have already tried it.) Though the DSi will save photos you made in the DSi camera and save them on to the SD Card. So you probably can view them in your computer! But on the other hand the pictures may become pixelated due to the "not so good" camera. The DSi has a big screen (3.25 inch. length) as to the DS Lite. The DSi is more meant for gaming rather than multimedia. Kind of like a Gameboy Advance.


DS Lite is as good as the DSi, but for more of the old school gamers. The DS Lite plays Game Boy Advance games, the dsi cant. The screen cover (front when the DS Lite is closed) is very glossy, which in meaning you will get your fingerprints all over. :( This DS Lite and DSi have a thing called Pictochat which is a chat room for people who also have any kind of DS and can talk to you. (they have to be in a household or close by. about 3 football fields away) The battery lasts incredibly long (14-16 hours on the lowest setting) unlike the DSi and PSP. (DSi: 14-15 hours lowest; PSP: 4-6 hours) This again is meant for gaming people and not so much multimedia. This console does not have a SD Card slot either.



Hope i helped

what should i get my boyfriend for christmas?
Q. december 26 will be our 4 month-er. so it's gonna be a christmas/fourth monthiversary gift. i'm fifteen, he's fourteen (obviously, we're not having sex). he loves gaming, he has an iphone, and he's a huge dork who loves all the youtube stuff. his favourite flavor is apple, his favourite color is green, and he's just silly. my budget is 25-ish dollars. so im prolly gonna try to find him something during black friday at walmart.

A. idk if he has a iphone case but thats a possibility. If he plays any computer games you could get him membership cards (or Xbox LIVE card). Really anything along those lines. If he likes hats/belts/any accesories you could get him that. Walk through the Walmart electronic section if you really don't know wat to get him and im sure ull find sumthin hell like good luck
