Patrick asked:


I’m interested in buying a fully weighted electronic piano. I’m just starting out and am interested in doing contemporary piano pieces as well as the option to hook up to an apple computer to work with certain music applications. A lot of people recommend yamaha pianos, though I’m not sure what to look for. I’m looking for a full range of price points from starter pianos as well as ones that would last me longer.

betty_boop783 asked:


Does anyone know of something like that where a teen’s job would be to take detailed notes in their journal while caring for and testing out an electronic baby like Baby Think It Over?
I have already done this in middle school and know what it is, I would just like to know if people need teens for testing out new ones or something where they get paid or not.
Not to be rude but I don’t want to know about people’s experiences with the baby. Thank you

I’m looking for sources of close-outs and excess inventory liquidations of consumer electronics goods in the U.S. In particular, looking for sources that move top tier and second tier consumer electronic brands in lots (few hundred, low thousands). Basically, I’m looking for sources that supply the likes of woot.com B-).

I’d like to understand how this part of the supply chain works; who these suppliers are; and what typical business terms are.

Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.
I can google and find things like liquidation.com ;-) What I am looking for is a contact at the WHOLESALE level.

Dan M asked:


Internet has become indispensable nowadays but we can’t take our PCs or laptops everywhere. So, there should be a small electronic device by means of which we can access internet. I understand such type of electronic instruments exist.

Could you suggest an electronic device on which I can access internet without connecting my mobile to it?

It will be great if I could have mobile phone functions on it also. Thanks
