Great site for Comparative Shopping of Consumer Electronics: Shopper.cnet.com is a site that allows you to price shop for consumer electronics and PC products from various third party web retailers. The power of the cnet shop is in it's ability to present you with the best price based on one of the member shops that partners with CNet. Also, as this site is affiliated with CNet the depth of product reviews is fantastic. You get both the CNet staff reviews as well as customer reviews that are posted on CNet. Given the technical nature of CNet's user base this makes for solid and in depth reviews, which really assist in making a purchasing decision. The one drawback is that the expertise of this reviewer base often means they are overly critical of features that the average user may not be concerned with and so sometimes it's hard to find a review from someone who has a lower level of technical expertise.
