I second that. This is a great resource. It will help many of us. We probably should come up with something like this for headphones and stuff like that, too. I know I was trying to give someone links for bluetooth headphones once, and I found several threads on that . . .
Anyway, thanks Sassafras. Great job.

I've added a few to the list. Read the one about battery life even if you already know everything about batteries, I guarantee you'll learn something.
