[Coco] RadioShack price matches Amazon in stores.

[Michael Graham]

Ooh, neat!

I didn't price match with them because I didn't know that was going on, 
but after looking in a couple of other stores a couple of days ago, 
Radio Shack somehow managed to have the cheapest USB WiFi adapter 
available in my town.  It was $25 versus the next cheapest at Wal-Mart 
for $30.  And since my local Radio Shack does a 10% student discount, I 
actually got it for $22.50 (though it was still nearly $25 after tax).

Also, they had HDMI to composite video and HDMI to component video 
converters for $30 each a while back.  I bought the component one first, 
but then realized it wouldn't do 480i SD (yes, I have an SD CRT TV with 
component video inputs), so I took it back and got the composite one.  I 
remember I had been looking at similar adapters online for $40 before I 
found these, so Radio Shack actually is getting competitive on some of 
their items.

I believe Best Buy was going to try this last year since they were doing so poorly competing against online (our local BB moved down the strip mall to a smaller location in past years). I may have to pop in for a memory card for the CoCoSDC...
