Editor,

I am a Gambian living in the United States and I love looking at your "week in pictures". I wanted to ask if you could add a few sentences to tell the story behind each picture. Thanks for adding pictures to your website. It makes a lot of difference. Hopefully you will add videos too. Thank you.

Thanks Buyai. We do our best for our readers. And of course, as you can see we make it possible for all of you out there to copy and keep the pictures. We will try to cover areas of interest to you all, Serrekunda and Buckle Street markets, etc. If readers have suggestions of areas which should photograph and upload, let us know and we will see what we can do.

Due to a standoff between NBC Universal and Apple Inc. regarding pricing of NBC shows on iTunes, Apple Inc. has canceled NBC's lineup of new shows. Currently, NBC shows can be downloaded for $1.99. If Apple were to continue having the new season NBC shows available, NBC would require a download fee of $4.99, an increase of $3 per download. This is something that Apple is simply not willing to do to its customers.

The rift, encompassing all NBC news, entertainment and sports programming requires that Apple no longer offer NBC's videos on iTunes after the current contract expires in December. In an effort to prevent disappointing iTunes customers, Apple has decided not to offer any of the NBC shows in September because they would have to pull the shows mid-season when the contract expires in December.

“We are disappointed to see NBC leave iTunes because we would not agree to their dramatic price increase,” said Eddy Cue, Apple’s vice president of iTunes. “We hope they will change their minds and offer their TV shows to the tens of millions of iTunes customers.”

The PSP is the ultimate in handheld gaming platforms. What you hold in your hands with the Sony PSP is a superb gaming platform with incredible graphics, pinpoint clear details and a large, hi-def widescreen of 4.3 inches.

The PSP has so many incredible functions, making it the only toy you might want or need.

The obvious function it has is superb gaming abilities, with the great graphics and audio. The console is also very user friendly, with comfortable handholds and easy use of controls. There are so many games to choose from, not only to beg, borrow or buy, but also to download. An example of a great download site is the PSPBlender.

The PSP has many other download capabilities such as music, videos, DVDs, photos, text, and even your favorite tv shows. You can even download movie trailers to view with your friends. It's a great way to figure out what movie to go to on a Friday night.

Downloading to the PSP is an easy thing to do. Mant of the download sites give you easy instructions, thousands of downloads to choose from and great technical support. Make sure you use a reputable site, preferably one that charges a one-time fee for endless downloads. It's important to make sure they have the helpful technical support, often 24/7.

Another way to download is directly from your PC. You can download and view your favorite photos, free wallpapers, videos and your favorite music, with only a few extra items neede such as a USB cable with a mini-B connector. You may also want to get o Pro-duo memory stick. A great place to buy these extras is from eBay.

With the many functions, superb visuals and audio, easy downloads and comfort in use, it is a no brainer that the Sony PSP far outshines anything else on the market.
