Installing MP3 Player / Cell Phone

I find this problem when someone has posted a picture that will not fit on the screen. Because the image is too wide, it causes you to scroll side to side to see the entire image.
One option might be to change your screen resolution from, say 800x600 to 1024x768 (which is what I use). The print is smaller, but more information is able to fit the screen and reduces a lot of those problems.

XM Radio
Hey Folks! Early on in this thread Russ mentioned that he was using XM radio and loves it. I just got the "go anywhere" XM MyFi unit for Christmas and I have to echo what Russ said.
The really cool thing for me is that the MyFI is completely portable so I take from the car to the plane to headphones in the FBO (just about anywhere that the sat signal doesn't get completely blocked). It even has the ability to record up to 5 hours of content for playback when you can't get a sat signal. I've also tried MP3 players, but I found I didn't have a whole lot of time to mess with collecting different MP3s and downloading them to the player, etc.... With XM you just pick what kind of music you're in the mood for at the time and they mix it up for you.
I also had the problems with MP3 players not really being loud enough when patched into an aircraft intercomm system, the MyFI must have a more power because I don't have that issue and don't need any type of booster. I probably sound like an XM salesmen or something, but I'm just really impressed. And let me tell you, listening to music while flying circles and looking at cars (I fly traffic watch) can sure make the hours go by.
