My trackball has been sticking lately - though minor 'surgery' helped (ie taking it all apart and cleaning the wheels), I fear condition will worsen and eventually prove fatal. Thanks!

I was planning on going to see the Canada-USA hockey game tonight but alas I've come down with the worst cold, am completely sick and even after resting all day, it was too draining an option to go. So we're watching it online... and still kind of craving some pub food. Or any food! Any...

Any suggestions on fun places to go for the day, be it to do a bit of tourism/walking around, photography - or just chilling somewhere different (eg day resorts with pools or near water). Have heard of some places around Tigre - any others ...?

Looking for haircolourist love here. Highlights. No caps, foil only. Would love Redken colour products although Aveda could be ok, too. Full-service salon (mani/pedi for my friend/guest). No problem paying for quality - quite confident even pricier places in BA will be a deal compared to home...

Any suggestions for where to get Peruvian food ? Both nicer and casual places, please. Extra points for one in San Telmo (we're craving ceviche tonight) but in general, anywhere around town. Thanks!

Does anyone know if one can simply buy tickets for once the Teatro Colon reopens May 25th ? (and if so, where) I'd like to see La Bohème, preferably in that first week or so. http://www.teatrocolon.org.ar/imagenes/pdf/TEMPORADA%202010.pdf On the site it discusses memberships but no mention of...

I have heard about services that deliver a certain number of bottles of water to your house weekly for low cost, does anyone have any information on providers, prices, etc. Also, do you know if they also collect the empty bottles (and reuse them) ? Part of the reason that we are interested in...

Ok. There are a lot of threads and posts about New Year's Eve and all that there is.....n't to do in BA. Voila. It's been made abundantly clear that it is not the place to party it up but the fact remains, such an occasion requires some festivities. Particularly if you are a) definitely going...

About to leave on my final shopping trip in preparation for BA and still not entirely sure what I should be buying for use with my laptop. What is everyone using ? Should I bother to hunt around Best Buy for them or wait until I get there. Surge protectors, converters, voltage spikes and...

Not sure what to pack for April/May/June in Buenos Aires (I will likely be out of town/traveling in July-August). Mainly in terms of a coat - I have some light sweaters / long-sleeved tops, jeans, etc. Just not sure if a rain-proof coat (similar in style to a trench, though warmer than a trench...

I'm arriving on the 30th and would like to set about stocking up right away, given that I'm sure not too much will be available on the 1st (when my roommate/friend arrives). I will be living in San Telmo. Is there some sort of WalMart in the area (to buy a hairdryer, perhaps some cables, a mini...

I'm a super straightforward BlackBerry user - email, BBM, sms, msn, gmail, facebook. However I think once in BA it could be useful to have some apps (city map, currency converter, spanish translator). Does anyone have any suggestions of ones they like in particular ?

Last time I was in BA, I was completely assaulted by those stupid mosquitos. I am slightly allergic to them here and luckily we have almost none, but my reactions are minor: swelling and majorly itchy for about 15 minutes, then nothing. But in Argentina I am really quite allergic to them - they...

I will be arriving mere hours before the big day (on the 30th) and am wondering what in the world one does for New Year's Eve, particularly when there is a good chance they will know (almost) NO ONE in town! Family friends will be off at their place on the beach (along with half of the city)...

I will be arriving in BA in December and am wrapping up the packing/renting of my place here and starting the packing/prep for BA :) I have read several previous threads about what to bring and while I will probably make do with whatever knives and kitchen pots come with our flat, I will be...

I'm looking for to make contact with experienced individuals in the events industry in the following disciplines: photography graphic design printing catering venue managers (anything from restaurants to theatres that could be rented out for small private events) meeting coordinators And any...

Thinking of renting an apartment through them and just wondering if anyone had any feedback about their service, apartments, prices, etc. http://www.inmogestionrent.com.ar I find it bizarre that they are asking the client (renters) to pay the rental fee and not the apartment owner (as is...
