But it seems for things like birthdays, or the Oilers schedule for example that I downloaded from their website, I can't create notifications for them.

There is a way. The problem is that the birthday calendar is a subscription calendar. Why those won't allow alerts I have no idea, but they don't. All you need to do is export the calendar (which gimps it into being a regular calendar). When you reimport it you will be able to apply alerts. The obvious downside is that it removes the "live updating" aspect of the calendar, so if you add birthdays to contacts periodically over time, you'll have to repeat this step each time. Personally I've just stopped adding birthdays to my contacts and have started adding them directly to iCal.
The invisibleshield (also sold at the uofc microstore) is awesome, but the install process is intense. I have a cat, so while I was very cautious, I ended up with a giant hair across my screen. I tried to fix it but when the case came off it was pretty much destroyed. To be fair they were awesome about giving me my money back. The best tip I heard came after I borked the install: put it on in the bathroom after running a hot shower for 5 minutes. The air will be thick and there will be less dust/hair floating around.
I have the iskin revo2 and I adore it. Yes it adds a little bulk, but I really like the look of it. Had to order from them directly though as I wanted the black case and all the apple store carries are fugly and loud.
