Epson Stylus 1400 Photo Printer Latest Price
“The good: High-quality color photo printing; long-lived prints; CD- and DVD-label printing; many paper options. The bad: Black-and-white prints not perfectly neutral; large footprint; no card reader. The bottom line: Epson’s new dye-based 13-inch printer has style and prints large photos, but its black-and-white prints are less than perfect.”

Lowepro SlingShot 300 AW Latest Price & User Reviews
“Putting the SlingShot on is akin to strapping on a Gibson Les Paul guitar, but infinitely less cool. Getting it off is a bit more difficult, and if you wear glasses, 8 times out of 10 the strap will snatch them off your face. But other than that the bag works well….In use over some long days of walking around and shooting this pack is at least as comfortable as any standard backpack I have used, and it was a lot more comfortable and manageable than any equally loaded shoulder bag I’ve tried.”
