Now, to figure out how to watch it without my parents walking in and wondering why I'm getting so worked up about a film...
I think HD movies in the iTunes store are 720p. But that's still amazing quality. My computer and current HDTV are only 720p and HD looks awesome on them.

Definitely. The extra pixels come in handy when I'm using my computer and need more stuff open, but given that I've been happily watching DVDs for the last decade I'll be more than happy with a 720p video.

By the way -- what's Tapatalk?

^^^ THIS!

I'd been a little (well, okay...VERY) envious of our EU family members who were going to receive all kinds of bonus goodies with their Avatar Steelbook Combi-Pack, but when I read about THIS, ohhhhh...I JUMPED at it.

In the space to designate to whom Dr. Frommer should autograph the disk, I put in my real first name and my ToS user name. The only drawback: grammatically, I don't think Na'vi Taw'ite is the PROPER way to say "daughter of the Na'vi Sky", but I'm hoping he'll correct it.

Tapatalk is an app for the iPhone/iPod touch that allows you to browse many (thousands) of forums and log into your account on that forum.

AF and ToS are both supported by Tapatalk so you can log in and post on each site. It's all formated nicely so you don't have to do any zooming etc. It's a great app to have and costs $2.99, (might be different in the US iTunes app store)

Neat! I'll have to practice my iPhone touch-typing before I invest in this particular application, though.

Yea, I can type pretty fast on my iPhone.

Oh and also: 3 more days until Avatar comes out!

Had I seen this before I MIGHT have done it. I don't know I am not into signed stuff like this, I would be too worried about messing it up

Well, what I'm doing is, before I found out about this, I had already pre-ordered it and paid it off at a local store.

I then ordered it with an auto-graph. My mom's friend then suggested that I still get my pre-ordered copy and keep the auto-graphed one as a collectors item and never open it.

That's what I'm doing.

That's basically what I'm doing. Except I pre-ordered mine at a store. What I'm going to do is never open the auto-graphed copy and only use the copy that I'm getting at the store.

Keeping the auto-graphed one as a collectors item.

It says on the site that you have until Sunday April 18th to order it. BUT the links are still up on the site to order one.
