Re: the rice cooker, check out the reviews, sounds like a “you couldn’t pay me to use this” product.
I trust no rice cookers other than Zojirushi. I guess that makes me a bit of a “brand loyalist”, but I challenge anyone to prove me otherwise.
Re: Starter SLR
You posted earlier about a great deal on a Nikon D40. I just picked one up at my local camera retailer and the price had dropped from $499 to $479. This price drop came from Nikon, so anyone looking for a great starter dslr should consider the D40. Plus, the 18-55mm lens is pretty great.
