Good cable
They seem to work just as well as my thirty dollar cable. I can see no difference. I don't have any $100 1.3 cables to compare to though. | 45 stars

Well worth the money
I bought this camera about 2 months before my son was born. I knew little about Digital SLRs, but after research I found that this was the one for me. This camera is well constructed and durable. The pictures are excellent. I have blown a few of my pictures up to 11X17 without any problem. Also, if you are going to be doing any editing of photos on your computer, this camera would be great. I would recommend purchasing the newest version of Photoshop or Photoshop elements (when I bought mine it only came with Elements 2.0 and 3.0 was already on the market). Also, if you want your pictures to turn out, you MUST purchase a larger flash. The onboard flash is weak, will leave shadows and it does not allow you to do any type of "bounce" flash. On the whole, this is the best camera I have ever had in my life and it would be great for anyone who has previous experience with SLR cameras. | 45 stars

Two Great Performing Drives in One
The HP 9900CI is a great CD Burner and DVD Player Combined. This internal drive is easy to install (HP provides a large poster to help with installation along with the manual.) it is also very easy to use after installation thanks to the great software included. HP My CD is a great way to quickly copy a CD or burn some files off your hard drive. Roxio CD allows the CD to be used like any other drive by dragging and dropping files onto the CD. This drive also comes with music generating software (ACID) and a photo, video editing package, and I'm likely leaving something else out as well. The Burner performs great, completing a full 700MB CD in under 7 minutes (when copying from the hard drive). And the DVD drive is complimented by a very nice software DVD Player. All in all this is two great products put into one. Highly Recommended. | 45 stars

Terrible penetration after they changed the tips
I had some of the old style Arrow T50 Staples (same model number) which have diagonal cut points on the tips. Those work great for numerous applications. I had to get some more and guess what they changed the style of penetration tips to something that does NOT work. These will not go through heavy cloth or mesh. Avoid!Arrow should have had the decency to change the model numbers on their T50 lines to indicate that they were gimping them down to be less effective (and force one to use more staples?). | 01 star

Fragile clasp
Everything about this case is great except for one thing. After two months of use, the clasp that holds it shut broke apart from both sides. The case is still usable, but I just have to be even more carful now. | 12 stars

Excelent sound quality for the price
All mp3 or media players come with awefull headphones, this cans is like a madatory replacement for all mp3/cell-phones headphones.Sound quiality is geat, but in noisy ambients like city traffic or gym you have to pump it to highger levels, and thee is no isolation at all.The construcction of thist babys is solid, don't feel cheap at all, but because of the folding system the cables tend to twist and sometimes i think it can broken.These are very confortable to use, at least you are a glass guy, like me, in that case you will fell a little pain in your ears for mediun time using it.I bough the white version of this, but the earbuds get dirty very easy, so after a year of use, i bouth the black version.Next step in quality sound for me, the AKG 81dj. | 34 stars

Kindle Cover Sucks
Listen I love my overpriced Kindle, but I am ticked off EVERYTIME I use it when I see the junk that Amazon threw on at the last minute on the Kindle and call it a cover. It is flimsy, it does not stand up to average use of Kindle - which in my case is not even every day but rather several times a week. I have had my Kindle for a few months and the flimsy cardboard bracket for the cover has broken. Honestly Amazon the cover makes me feel like you were just out for the money for the Kindle and as an afterthought or to cut cost you figured okay we'll cut cost with the cover. I really am ticked off about this because I feel like the cover alone takes away a sense of value for the money. Amazon needs to offer a better quality cover to all current Kindle owners without incurring any additional cost because when it comes to the Kindle cover, what we got for the money is a bunch of junk!DO NOT PAY MONEY FOR THIS PIECE OF JUNK IT NEEDS TO BE GIVEN TO YOU FOR FREE!!! | 01 star

Need older style, but new CD-R discs?
I have an older Phillips CD-R recorder, and found the newer CD-R discs would not initialize in it. Looked everywhere for what I needed, then remembered Amazon. Found brand new TDK CD-R disc, at the ready from J&R Music, on Amazon. Ordered them, received them in a jiffy, and back in business with my old Phillips. Very pleased. | 45 stars

the tv tuner is great. But the dvd player is bad. If there is even a thumb print on the dvd it won't play well. And you will get a no signal message on a blank screen every five minutes. | 23 stars

Outstanding image quality, slow image preview
If image quality is your number one requirement, you will be happy with this camera. The user interface is well designed.My only complains would be around the battery life and slow preview.I would also like to see more Sigma lens with image stabilization. | 34 stars

Terrific Printer For Text and Printing Photos For the Price
I've been using my Epson 880 printer for 10 years now, and so far it hasn't disappointed. Actually, the reliability and print quality of this printer has exceeded my expectations, especially considering the reasonable price. I mostly use it to print pictures of photos I've taken that I think my family will enjoy. I have prints of my photos hanging in the family room and the living room. Sizes range from 8.5" by 11" down to 4" by 6", all framed with mattes. Professional quality? No. But easily good enough for my home and for sending to relatives as gifts.The Epson software has options that will allow you to print up to 2880dpi while also allowing you to control hues, RGB and variations, adjust for digital photos, draft quality, size, print speed (faster for lower quality, slower for higher quality) etc. Printing an 8 by 10 color photo at 2880dpi and slow speed for highest quality can take 4 to 5 minutes.I've found that when the blinking light comes on warning me that it's time to replace the ink cartridge I still have enough ink left for another 20 or so black text pages, and 6 to 10, 8 by 10 color prints. The graphics display showing how much ink is left in the cartridges is useful as a guide but isn't precise regarding exactly how much ink is left. This hasn't been a problem for me in 10 years of use. When the graphics show the ink is getting low, and the light on the printer starts to blink at me, I just keep in mind that it's getting close to time to change a cartridge.The only con I can think of is when I haven't used the printer for several months the ink jets can become clogged with dry ink and print quality deteriorates. When this happens I run Epson's print head cleaning utilities, and then print a couple of pages to clear out any residual dried ink in the jets. This always restores the original print quality.Finally, just today my wife and I were looking at new printers that copy, print, and scan. My wife said that she would like to get one so she could make safe copies of documents at home. I told her "Sure, go ahead and get one". Then she said "Now you can get rid of that old printer you've had for so many years and use this new one". My response was "Forget it. I'm not getting rid my old printer. If you want to use the new one for copies, fine, but I'm keeping my old Epson 880." Not exactly sure what she's going to do at this point, but I'm keeping my 10 year old Epson 880. | 45 stars

Not what it seems
I was using an Epson 890 for a couple of years and began to run into paper handling problems. Believing I had worn it out I was attracted to the R800 as a quality replacement.How very frustrating to find that, after a few months of use, this expensive inkjet can only print on glossy photo paper and basic 80/100gsm matt stock. It will not handle matt art papers of any substantial thickness, will not feed matt greetings cards and is a huge disappointment. Epson Support are very unhelpful, just saying you must use Epson papers which leaves you with very limited possibilties.I bought this printer because it has the potential to produce sunlight resistant prints from original art works but its paper handing problems negate this possibilty. It also guzzles hard to find and very expensive inks at an alarming rate.At this price and after all these years of development I expect perfection from Epson but I find my $60 Canon is a dream to use compared with the R800 | 01 star

I love it! (Okay, a slightly different version, but still..)
I have the Belkin TuneCast I Mobile FM Transmitter (which is basically the same as this, but doesn't have the screen on front and what not). And I have to say, for those that say it doesn't work at all or has crappy sound quality. It has worked wonderfully for me.I have a '99 Chevy Cavalier (it doesn't even have a tape deck, just a basic radio) and I wanted to figure out some way of listening to cds in the car and came across the FM transmitter. After buying it, I was a little worried that I was wasting my money but I got it, tried out a few cds while riding around town and it works great. Ever since, I'm in love with it... I'm very pleased with this product and would highly recommend it. | 45 stars

I just received this product and like everybody said a couple screw holes on the covers were broke. No big deal because that's what super glue is for 99c. All and all the Carpet on the box is clean,no box issues, and subs work-look fine. Sub and Subs $85 Learning how to read a tape measure priceless..... : p | 34 stars

Look NO more. This receiver is GREAT !!!
I have been shopping around for the last 6 months for a THX receiver. I went back and forth on the SR806 and SR706 for awhile, but their price keeps on going up. My budget was no more than $500. I was very lucky that I was able to buy this for $410 minus the $30 when you sign up for the Amazon CC. So for $380 I thought it was a STEAL ! It was SILVER in color but this was not an issue for me. Besides, I can't see the dusts on this color. It took me no more than 45 minutes to set up via HDMI cables. The sound on this was AMAZING. The system I have hooked on this: 42" Panasonic Plasma, Definitive BP7004 (front), CLR 2000 (center), Definitive BP7006 (back) and a 12" Velodyne sub. My speaker wires are all Audioquest Type 4. It's a 5.1 set-up but there's room for up to 7.1 set up. For now though, I'm good. This receiver has a clear/clean amp power.Video upscaling is a "pass-through". 9/10 reviews via the magazine or internet were all positive. Enough said...buy it under $500 and you won't be sorry. | 45 stars

Check compatibility before buying
This UPS uses delivers a step approximated sine wave on battery mode, but computers such as Dell Studio XPS 9000, have an active PFC load, which means it needs a pure sine wave for successful operation. In this case, a BRxx00LCD UPS simply will not work. You need a higher end APC SmartUPS series (SMT750, SMT1000 or SMX1000). | 23 stars

crappy wire (NOT 12 gauge)
I just got this speaker wire alonge with Pyramid's so called 8 gauge power wire and was disappointed in both. This is not 12 gauge wire (closer to 16 gauge)and there 8 gauge power wire is actualy 12 gauge according to standard wire strippers. I do not recommend this wire ,it is way thinner than advertised. | 01 star

recommend the printer
I received the printer promptly, and it was in good condition. The setup was fairly easy; I had difficulty setting it as default printer. After many attempts it finally accepted my directions. The printing is very good; color photos print quite nicely on ordinary printer paper. It will not print material that I have scanned on an HP scanner; I learned from Okidata tech support that this printer will not perform this function. Tech help is very good, and they speak English | 34 stars

Very Big
this looked like a good idea to keep people on our bike rides together if we got separated. However, as soon as they were put on the team captains we all started to laugh. I would never wear this in public. It would be a cool idea if you were alone and wanted someone to talk to (which we did) but the speakers on mine stopped working after two weeks. Thinks twice before buying. | 12 stars

Stuttering Problem?
I have the XV-N40bk and had a similar stuttering problem during fast pans. I believe this is caused by the 'picture source' option setting. Try adjusting these settings. (IE On DVDs of video taped programing, set to 'video-active' and if it's a film, set to 'film' mode.) Like the XV-N40, I believe this player plays PAL discs (region 0) as well as NTSC. This is a great feature. | 45 stars

Bag still stinks after 3 yrs, but...
It is a good size for my 13" MacBook. Protection is not the best with this material in general. Bought it because it is stylish looking. The strap is very comfortable and stretches to defray the weight. The connection still worries me that it looks fragile. But so far not showing signs of breaking off. I only use this maybe once or twice a month in the past 3 yrs. for quick transport to a church meeting or work. if I need to carry more, I use a North Face Recon backpack for school and research days. Now I use it to mostly tuck my iPad3 and some books for a leisure break to Starbucks. | 34 stars

Excellent phone, has been working great for over a year, 5 days a week, and over 10 hours a day.Update on this review, today is April 17th 2012. 4 years and 2 batteries later this phone is still going strong. Excellent phone, well worth the price. | 45 stars

Perfect for Macbook Air
This is perfect for connecting bulky USB devices to the Macbook Air. We use it with an SD card reader that is a little too large for the cramped USB connector and the short length makes it convenient to carry around.This cable is only useful for extending the reach of a USB port and is functionally the same as USB extension cables included with USB memory sticks. | 45 stars

Cam Corder & Digital Cam, what else do you need?
I bought this recently because of the good reviews on here so far and I must say I'm not disappointed. It looked quite big when I viewed the picture but trust me this baby is so tiny and looks really cute. It's very easy to use and much better if you buy a lets say 1GB SD card since you can record longer, obviously and take more pics but like the previous reviewer said, you can by a multimedia storage and store them in it if you're on holiday.The quality of the images are very good and the video cam isn't too bad either. You can play around with the quality and obviously the lesser quality the more you can store in the SD.Only thing I have to say is that if you are looking for a cam corder more than a digital than this isn't your best option and vice versa for Digital cam as there are so many now and some better in quality but this baby is great and has both in one package so it's like best of both worlds. | 45 stars

Reliable, Range, No Resets: Still works 3 years later.
Replaced a Belkin N1 Vision, which started out nice, but eventually needed constant restarts. The Belkin had replaced a fried Netgear Gigabit Mimo (which fried in about 9 months, apparently a common problem with that router). Now I am back to DLink. First DLink I had was great but replaced because it became outdated. This one works well with more than one wireless computer on at a time. So far, no resets required. Good range, always connects, no drops. Installed quickly on Motorola SB modem on Comcast internet.Update: March 2012. Still going strong! Longest life of any router yet. | 45 stars

THIS THING IS AWSOME!!!!!!!
I am 13 years old.I just received this wonderful handheld tv for a birthday present,and I love it!!!It is so lightweight that I take it almost everywhere with me.And I have wanted this item for a long time now, because my bigger brother and sister are always hogging the tv, and I never get a chance to watch what I want.I was so releived when I got this for my birthday.Now I can just run up to my room and grab my tiny tv.And unlike most other hanheld tv's, it has perfectly clear color picture.I am very glad my parents discovered Amazon.com , its there source for all are gifts. | 45 stars

An Impressive MP3 Player
I searched all over for an alternative to the way overpriced and overrated iPod, and I fortuantly came across the Zen. I had been impressed earlier by the Creative's soundcards, so I ordered one. I love this thing. You don't need any applications to use it. All you have to do is put the CD in, and say do not install applications. However, the bundled applications are much worth it. ZENcast is an awesome podcast receiver, and Creative Media Explorer is great for not so computer savvy people. The device feels firm in your hand, and all the buttons are easily excessable. I would recomend picking up a skin though, because you will drop this thing occasionaly. Strangly enough, I have dropped this thing about 10 times without a skin, and the thing has never changed. Another thing you may want to get is another pair of earbuds. The ones included outstrip the iPod ones by about a mile, but to really enjoy the awesome sound quality you need new ones. The E4s are oaky, but the ones that sync the best with it are the V MODA'S. They are the best for it's sound.Overall a great product, and I would reccomend it to people who would rather not pay outragous iPod prices. | 45 stars

Great Little PDA
I have had the Areo 1550 for just a few days and am very pleased with it. Everyone who has seen it is amazed at all it can do. The Pocket Word is perfect for school and syncs up seamlessly with my desktop at home and work. I highly recomend it, you get a great bargain for the price. | 45 stars

If you need a starter head or a light weight quality basic head this is the way to go.
For a simple basic head, it doesn't get much better than this. The 3025 3D Junior Head is another quality product by Manfrotto. The light weight sturdy black aluminum construction is built to last.This head adjusts in three separate ways. The panoramic adjustment allows for a full 360 degrees of rotation on both the vertical and horizontal plane. The adjustment includes a dial on the top to indicate how far you have moved the head. Keep in mind this is a simple head, there is no adjustments for nodal points. The vertical and horizontal adjustments are controlled with a screw locking mechanism. Each adjustment works separately from the rest.The camera attachment uses a 1/4" screw and attaches to a 3/8" screw. I use this head with both theBogen-Manfrotto 3021BPRO tripodand aBogen 3231 Monopod with deatchable legs. I also added aquick release platewith leveling bubbles.When it comes to panoramic shots, I find this uncomplicated head too basic. For that reason I use the Bogen 303SPH. Other than panoramic shots, this head has served its purpose well. If you need a starter head or a light weight quality basic head this is the way to go.PROS:Compact and simple to useLight but sturdy constructionFlexible positioningCONS:Basic, no frills headNo leveling bubbles | 34 stars

Gets The Job Done
Does exactly what it's supposed to do and in a compact fashion.The only gripe i have about it is that when you unplug it from your iPod, the iPod keeps playing unlike my old 3.5-to-3.5 which pauses the music when you unplug. | 34 stars

Sound - Good; Features - Lacking
I agree with other reviewers that the sound is quite good with the player. For this price, however, I am disappointed in the shortness of the headphone wire, and the lack of an armband or belt clip with this player. I do not have a "pocket" to put this in when I work out or am listening. It is quite frustrating that cheaper players thought ahead of the mobile need for "attaching" the player on your belt, and this design did not. | 23 stars

Suprisingly good multifunctional gadget for the price
I found this unit while looking for a combination webcam digital camera. I had also desired to purchase a compact flash MP3 player. Double bonus, and a audio recorder to boot, what a deal.. The pictures are suprisingly detailed and with accurate color reproduction, something I would expect in a higher echlon camera. It is not a multi-megapixel unit, but can hold its own in its class. Detail on images taken inches away lacks resolution, but anything taken with more than a foot has enough definition and will suprise you. The USB connection transfers images quickly and the TV display connection is nice. It does not have a LCD screen on the unit, but its price is enticing to say the least. The mp3 player works great. Another bonus that both pictures and mp3 songs exist on the same memory card. The camera creates a folder on the card for its images. Triple mega bonus, both the mp3 songs and jpeg pictures are immediately accessible on my Windows CE PDA!!!! Unbelievable... My friend just spent $300 for a Sony mp3 player and an absorbant amount on a Sony maciva digital camera and is disappointed that the memory sticks are not readable by both and his files are not transferable to his PDA.If have the need for a digital camera, mp3 player and webcam look not further as this is the unit for your. It will work great in capturing moments and memories while providing countless hours of music entertainment.If you are looking for a digital camera to produce high quality prints to display and frame, you will need a higher end mega pixel unit and some good digital imaging software. | 34 stars

Out of Sight, Out of Mind
I will keep this short and to the point. The Iogear GBU311 installed easily on my Windows XP desktop system and has performed flawlessly since then. I use it to sync data to my cell phone/PDA as well as for wireless lan and haven't had a single problem. Coverage is good in both distance and quality. If you want Bluetooth that works and won't give you a problem, in my opinion this is the way to go. And no, I don't work for Iogear. | 45 stars

Best MP3 Buy
This is an amazing product. It's so much better than the ipod it's not even funny. All my friends have ipods, and when i got my zen, they all wanted one! It's way better, even if there's thousands of things out there that are compatible with ipods, nothing compares to the zen. I love that i can have the picture of my family or boyfriend as my background and it's not just plain white like ipod. It also stores a lot of music and battery lasts long. i love it. BUY IT! | 45 stars

Does not burn Blu-ray discs, SATA cable not included
Pioneer BDC-2202 this is currently the cheapest Blu-ray drive, but it does not burn Blu-ray discs. It burns DVDs and CDs only, and reads Blu-ray discs, DVDs, and CDs. For some people that may be enough, since Blu-ray burning is still impractically slow and expensive.The drive requires serial ATA (SATA) interface, but does not come with a SATA cable, which you need to connect the drive to your motherboard.Pioneer's web site has a list of compatible motherboards for this drive, which you may want to see before buying the drive. Mine is on the list, but I still had to update its SATA drivers before I can burn successfully.Bundled software includes WinDVD 8 LE (which plays Blu-ray movie discs), Ulead VideoStudio 11 SE, and Ulead Burn.Now SE.I tested with seven Blu-ray movie discs -- "Flightplan," "Memento," "Apocalypto," "Descent," "Basic Instincts," "The Untouchables," and "Dog Day Afternoon" -- and this drive played them all successfully on PowerDVD Ultra.To play Blu-ray movies (and HD DVDs, for that matter), your PC needs to be fast enough and equipped with HDCP-compliant graphic card and monitor.I can burn CDs and single layer DVDs with no problem. But I cannot burn dual layer DVD+R ("Matrix" brand bought from shop4tech), not even with Nero Buring Rom. I'll have to try other brands of media.EDIT 8/11/09:Last year I found 2 brands of dual-layer discs that I could burn with this drive:Verbatim 95310 8.5 GB 2.4X Dual-Layer DVD+R, bought at Amazon, andMatrix DVD+R Media 8.5G 8X Dual Layer Bulk (Item SKU: MATDL+R8X/B), bought at [...]. | 23 stars

A "Miracle" Lens
The Canon EF-S 10-22mm ultra-wide zoom lens is an optical miracle - or at least so it seems to older photographers who had to carry several lenses to do what this one does and even then could get have the near perfection of edge to edge sharpness and (especially after RAW correction) low linear distortion.Many users will find that the EF-S 10-22 becomes one of their most used lenses. In some cases because it allows them to "get more in." But -- better yet! -- because it allows such interesting compositions with its great depth of field.Some have complained about the cost of this lens. But considering what it does and how well it does it that cost is really quite reasonable.Could it be better yet? Sometimes I have wished for a faster aperture. But considering what that would have done to the weight (and cost) of the lens the trade off is a good one. And although wide lenses allow for slow shutter speeds inherently, motion compensation would have been a nice addition to allow for even longer hand-held exposures.In summary: A super-sharp, moderately sized, zoom lens for Canon's 'small sensor' DSLRs with a very useable range of wide to ultra-wide focal lengths. | 45 stars

Geocaching with eTrex
We are new to geocaching, and the etrex was recommended to us. We have never owned a GPS before, so this was all new to us. The unit is easy to use, the screens are easy to see, and the light makes things easy at night. The accuracy is usually within 12 feet. The higher priced models, we are told, have a smaller accuracy, but for the price and fun, this etrex is well within our needs. Awsome. | 45 stars

LOVE THIS FOR MY DAUGHTER!!!!!
I bought this for my 4-1/2 yr old daughter because she kept bugging me to listen to my mp3 player. Well, I must say it is a life saver. It's easy to operate, she had it for only 5 minutes and said "Mommy, I can do it." I bought rechargeable batteries so that I wouldn't have to spend a fortune on batteries and those last a good 10-12 hours. I love the fact that it has the external speakers, but my daughter prefers the earbuds, it's makes her feel more grown up listening to her own music. Now I had to buy 2 more Shakers for her 9 and 10 yr old uncles because they thought it was so cool! Really I got a good deal, under $20 with shipping and handling, normally they sell at stores for $24-$35 each. You just can't go wrong for the price and I would say this is perfect for 4-12 year olds. | 45 stars

Great HD LCD TV
I bought this TV back in September 2007 and I am very pleased with it. Such a good price too, I felt like I was getting a steal for 600$. Seems to have gone up a bit, probably because of Xmas.It is very easily wall mountable, has 3 HDMI ports, plus a PC monitor jack so you can use it as a monitor for your computer.Picture quality is great. Really no technical complaints at all... easy setup from the start. Very user friendly interface as well.I would say my only regret is not getting the 1080i HDTV... but honestly I can't really note difference between the 480 and the 1080 that much. You can definitely tell the difference in the price however.If your looking for something that has is a good price, excellent quality, and not titanic in size this is for you. | 45 stars

Great potential if used properly - even 3D-games!
The device comes with high-quality Duracell batteries which will last a good while so YOu have plenty of time to experiment. The pre-installed programs of the device are pretty basic and good only for very simple use, but this device can do so much more - if You get (available for free!) sketchbook or painter applications You can use it as portable art tablet and converter software will turn Your work on it to bmp files and vice versa. The real surprise was that it is even possible to play 3D games on it - I was almost shocked seeing a framerate of abour 10fps playing a game with an engine better then Doom.Still there is some things You should know - while connected to the PC the PDA will create lags every now and then so if You draw while it is connected or play realtime games it might not be very pleasant, but once its disconnected its perfectly fast (took me time to find out - especially for drawing its important not to mess up the lines). Also You should make sure that while the PDA is connected to the PC You see the lightling symbol on the lower left so the PC provides the power. Also every time the PDA shuts down while connected to the PC switching it back on costs battery power so get one of the many software tools on the net to stop auto-off while being connected to the PC.I could say more but I dont want to flood You - I hope this review is useful and I strongly recommend this most flexible and powerful device that can easily compete with most devices that are twice as expensive :)b | 45 stars

Great storage
I have been looking for some type of storage case for my CF cards, when I am out shooting I usually have them scattered in my bag or pockets, not good! This little case is perfect, holds 4 cards very securely, I can have the case open and turn upside down and cards will not fall out. The case is built really sturdy as well, feels good in the hands and appears it could take a beating, like being dropped etc. I purchased 2 of these to see how I would like them, as I was originally looking at a more expensive case but after getting these I will probably get one more to carry in my pocket while shooting, these are about as big as a phone so they fit perfectly in a pocket, very handy protection for your cards at a reaqsonable price. | 45 stars

I Took 6,000 pictures with this camera!
I've had this DX3500 for a little over a year and have worked with it several times a week, under many different conditions. I absolutely love it and have had no trouble whatsoever. I print up to 8x10 on a Lexmark printer and it is still going strong after 6,000 shots. I did not purchase dock, and use Kodak rechargeable battery pack that came with accessory kit. The Energizer blue and silver AA batteries also give dependable use. I also used Kodak's customer service for advice and they were very helpful. | 45 stars

Good starter telescope
Gift for my 5 year old son. He loves it! You can see the moon really well. It is a little difficult to adjust it and keep everything lined up where you can see what you are aimed at. Would be nice to have it lock or something. Overall, it is good for beginning. | 34 stars

Pretty good so far
I have two iomega drives, one for more than a year and this one for a month or two now.They both work fine.The noise level is acceptable, since the drives are quiter than my laptop's fan itself.However, be aware of what you are buying:It is a DESKTOP external hard drive, so do not complain that it is too big to carry around, moreover including the power cord.And more important: you are probably buying it for a backup purpose, so use it as such and do not keep your files ONLY in it. | 34 stars

BAD COMPATIBILITY ISSUES
I do audio restoration and conversion for a living, therefore, when I burn CD's they are played by my clients on MANY different brands of CD players. I have had COUNTLESS complaints that these things won't play on SO MANY CD players, that I can't use them. They play on my $3200.00 Sony ES777, and on my OPPO Universal Disc Player, but they won't play on my brand new Alpine car deck. They also won't play on COUNTLESS other CD players that my clients use, and I have had TONS of complaints and have had to do TONS of work over again for them. This NEVER happens with ALL the other brands I have used. ALSO, don't let the cool black look of these CD's fool you. They are flimsy in nature, and they peel. Can't believe Memorex would put a product like this on the market. If they work on YOUR CD player, fine, but if you plan on burning CDs to give as presents or to clients, if you are a professional, don't take the chance that these CDs will be compatible with their CD player. | 01 star

Its Fiber Optics - yep it works
I find no difference between this Monster Optical cable and the ones my wife picked up for me at Target (I think they were Sony). Point being it is an Optical cable made of fiber optics. For these short runs, a cable is a cable is a cable, if it passes light - it works. Unlike copper where conductivity matters and the many technologies behind wire twists, oxygen free copper, and so on, an Optical cable is simply a piece of silicon wrapped in fancy sheathing, good packaging and aesthetically pleasing colors. If it passes light - it works.Point being is that this cable did what it was supposed to do - it passed light transmission from one piece of A/V gear to another and does its job well. One major issue I did have was the connector end stays in the unit if I unplug it, I have to reassemble the cable/connector before inserting it again, otherwise it works just fine. | 45 stars

Excellent LCD
Extremely satisfied. Purchased this for our kitchen and the picture just jumps out at you! Especially in HD. Its bright, sharp, and detailed. The silver frame and stand also matches our stainless steel kitchen appliances.We have a Panasonic 50" plasma for the living room which we've been satisfied with as well.Conducted lots of research on this LCD purchase and the reviews were high. You need to consider this one if you are looking at LCDs. I'd highly recommend this, you can't go wrong. | 45 stars

Marriage Lifeline
My husband and I were days away from divorce. We were each given a copy of this book the night before our court appearance by a dear friend. He could see how much pain both of us were in and wanted desperately to help us. He had already attended The Arbinger Institutes training and had read all of their books; most recently, this book. He knew how powerful its message is to the right heart.There was a lot that transpired during the 18 hours preceding the court hearing. A lot of this book was read. Hearts were softened & changed and two prideful, selfish individuals became new people. I don't use this lightly when I say it helped facilitate a miracle in our lives. We have a long ways to go, but at least we will be traveling it together and we now have hope for ourselves, and for our marriage and "The Anatomy of Peace" has much to do with it. | 45 stars

Great idea - poor execution
The L7680 looks impressive, well documented, and easy to use. When it works the print quality and scan quality is excellent. Unfortunately the software does not execute as it should and gives errors during setup. After several install - fail - delete - re-install episodes (another 8 hours in the trash) I finally got it to work. However, only when hooked straight to pc. Just gave up on the ethernet connection. The program is nag-ware and is not light on the system resources when running in pc tray as designed. The printer is suppossed to print both sides - a major reason I got this. Spent another half day on phone with annoying tech support and not much to show for it. It jams most of the time - even with dry time set for as long as possible. Jams equally well with either HP or Xerox branded papers - so not a paper issue! It is a poor printer design issue. HP should be made to issue a re-call of these. Note the abysmal rating it has earned - too bad I got mine before all this came to light! What good are the nice features, etc. if it doesn't work? I would NOT recommend to a friend. | 01 star

Never go out with out your Kodak CX7530 camera
I am very happy to say that I bought this camera over two months ago. I was not going to get into digital photography because I have a minolta qtsi 35mm camera that I just love. I take any where from 100-400 pictures a month, not only of my daughter, every event, but also semi professional. I have a camera on me at all times (in search of the perfect picture) Not only have I actually put down my slr camera I have put down all its attachments as well. I have been using this camera alone and I love it. It takes crisp pictures, and is very detailed. I actually had a 8x10 show water dropplets that you would have never picked up on my Minolta. I even bought the easy share printer dock (its a must) to print pictures at home. This is great for quick prints. I even found it to print better than snap fish, and walmart photo centers. You will not be let down with this camera! Just shoot,print and enjoy! | 45 stars

This is a single purpose lens but ....
it does it really really really well.The lens is expensive, you can buy 5 85 f/1.8 for 1 85 f/1.2.The lens is heavy and fat.You could use it as an indoor sport lens since it a f/1.2, but the 70-200 f/2.8 IS is more useful, since it focuses quicker and the range is more useful.You can use it as a walking around lens, but 24-70 f/2.8 is a better choice.Macro, the 100 f/2.8 macro is more suitable and only 1/5 of the price.Is it worth the money?It depends.It's a difficult lens to work with.As others have noted, the DOF is incredibly thing.Most don't really need f/1.2.No you buy this lens for only one purpose.Bar none it is the best portrait lens out there.The bokeh and sharpness is stunning. | 45 stars

Great value with a great function!
I use this flash for my Nikon D300, it is a good flash with all kind of functions that I need.I been use it when I shot some wedding pictures and for most indoor use with my 24-70mm lens. Compare to the SB-800 speedlight, the price of the SB-600 speedlight is more than great and the function is enough. It is just like you buy a 50mm f1.8 when you want to buy the 50mm f1.4 lens. | 34 stars

Sorely lacking in product description
These little speakers really aren't that bad, especially given the price. But the seller tells us almost nothing about them to let us make an informed buying decision. There were two major flaws (to me) that would have prevented my purchasing these speakers if they had been adequately described in the listing:1) The connection cable to the iPod is only 7 inches long. If you plan to have it anywhere other than in the semi-dock the speakers provide, this cable is worthless.2) The description says that the speakers come with an AC adapter. This is only partially true. They come with an adapter that will let you get power from a USB input. So to get actually get AC power, you need more than just this unit. You will either need your computer or another adapter that changes a USB input into a wall input plug.As I said, these speakers are likely perfect for many people. But they fail for my intended use. I'd hoped to keep them in the bathroom so I could use them in the shower. I could connect them to my iPod, which would remain safely *outside* of the bathroom. I may be able to work around the various cable failings, but it bothers me that the merchant failed to describe his product properly. Hence the two star review. | 12 stars

Not terribly impressive.
I ordered the Tribeca 2 GB flash drive to supplement a 1 GB flash drive, used primarily for photo back up. Because of its thickness, I had to remove my other USB devices from the over/under USB ports on the front of my machine. The rubber casing is a bit too long and the drive does not stay connected all that well. While copying over the pics, the data became completely scrambled. I ran a check disk against it, and found some bad sectors, which had caused the problem. | 12 stars

Great Digital Video Camera for under $75
There is nothing that compares to this camera for the money. It is the lightest video camera I have ever seen. The quality is good in both camera and video modes. This is great for tranfer to DVD, as it includes all the cables to hook-up to a burner. Overall, Polaroid has hit a homerun with this small wonder! | 45 stars

Not White
I'm sure the technical aspects of this computer are on par with any Sony laptop. I'm just unhappy that it's labeled a "white" laptop. Or, I'm unhappy with my decision to purchase this laptop from a retailer that didn't have very good images of the product the way Amazon does.We are setting up an all-white showroom, and needed a laptop (non-Macintosh) in a color to compliment the design. We ordered this Sony "White" laptop and...It's not white at all. Funny, the "Pink" one is pink. The "Grey" one is grey. But the "White" one is silver.?? | 23 stars

I went with the SD750 when I found it under $200. I had great luck with it over the holidays; very compact and yikes; I dropped in in the ladies room.

More than Pleased
It took a period of 10 days from ordering this to it being delivered to me in Iraq. This alone will have me ordering from them in the future for any more hardware needs. The battery is a perfect fit.

Samsung Digimax S800 Digital Camera Review
The Bad* After owning the camera for roughly one month I noticed that half of the lens shield occasionally did not close. I was forced to take the camera back to Sam's Club to exchange it for an identical model.* The camera does not have a "hold" button and is very easy to accidentally turn on by pressing one of several buttons. Don't even think about carrying this camera around lose in your pocket or purse as it will turn on and attempt to extend its lens when you are least expecting it. If the lens cannot be fully extended, such as in a pocket, the camera will beep but will not attempt to retract the lens. You'll have to stop the car on the side of the highway and get out so that you can stand up to carefully wiggle the camera with partially extended lens out of your pocket. I had no problems keeping my previous digital camera in my pocket for years. You'll need to carry this camera inside a hard case or special camera bag. You might also get away with removing the batteries and placing the batteries back in later but this kind of work removes a lot of spontaneity from your photography.* The camera comes with a 256 MB SD card. The cost of the 256 MB SD card (as of the date of camera manufacture) is factored into the camera price. I already own a 1 GB SD card, a 256 MB SD card, and a 128 MB SD card. I resent having to pay for this 256 MB SD card which I will never use. Perhaps I could spend some time reselling the 256 MB SD card but it's hardly worth it and I wouldn't be able to return the camera if the lens cover ever acted up again.* The camera claims to work with up to a 1 GB SD card. As of May, 2006 you could purchase a 1 GB SD card online for $20 USD from Buy.com. Why won't my $300 camera accept more than $20 worth of memory at a time? At the time I purchased the camera I was intending to purchase a 4 GB SD card for it until I read the manual. I suppose I could spend $75 to buy 3 more 1 GB SD cards memory cards but I don't want to keep up with which ones I have used and which ones I haven't, swap them out in the middle of taking photos, tell my computer to download images four times instead of just one, etc, etc. I also feel that the stack of 1 GB SD cards will end up collecting dust (like my 128 MB card) a good 12-18 months before a single 4 GB SD card would.* To connect the camera to your USB port on your computer you need a special proprietary cord instead of one of the standard USB cords available locally. I use my camera for both business and personal purposes which means I have to keep dragging this special cord around between my home computer and work computer. Think of taking the cord back and forth as roughly a doubling of camera size. Of course I could shell out for an additional cord but I refuse to monetarily reward this sort of nonsense.* There is no way to enter personal information into the camera so that if an honest party discovered the camera they could contact you. The serial number is on an easily removed sticker and does not appear on any of the menu screens. If my camera was stolen, and I knew where it was, I don't think there is any way I would be able to prove it was "my camera" to the police.* When taking video the camera stops recording sound if the zoom feature is used for the duration of the time the lens is extending or retracting.* There is no "raw" uncompressed photo mode.* The camera does not have a viewfinder, which I would not mind except there is no way to turn off the screen to conserve battery life or increase stealth.* The camera image files names are numbered. When I purchased the camera I wanted to start my image numbers where my old camera left off but could not. When I exchanged the camera I was again forced to reset my image numbering scheme.The Good* Most importantly the camera is "8.1 mega pixels" with a cost of less than $300.00 and does not use proprietary or built-in batteries and memory. It runs well on two AA NiMH batteries and accepts standard SD Memory Cards. These attributes were the major deciding factors in my purchasing decision.* The camera captures sound and video, albeit only at VGA resolution (640x480).* Transferring files between the camera and Fedora Linux was effortless.A special note: This review contains a large number of "Bad" points in comparison to the number of "Good" points. Please do not let that fool you into thinking that I give the camera a poor overall review. On the contrary, I think the Samsung camera is MUCH better than the Sony POS that I have previous experience with and would highly recommend it to anyone giving it an overall rating of 4 out of 5 stars. | 34 stars

Good transmitter--no issues yet w/poor signal
I purchased this transmitter online for $16.99 and it was $50....I was worried because it was marked down so much. I got it after paying $10 shipping which I thought was outragous! It works well the only complaint I have is that the cords are so long they are cluttering up my console area in my car. A few twist ties will solve that...I just need to get around to doing it. A retractable cord would be more user-convenient and friendly. | 34 stars

Seducted by an iTouch.
Purchased an iPod nano 4 GB for the 2006 holidays. Throughout the year, it provided consistent functionality, without so much as a day off. Plugged it into my car audio system with a simple cassette/cable connection. No problems with syncing, downloading music and photos. This little green media pod was perfect.In September, 2007, the iTouch caught my 'i'. I looked at her sleek lines, read about her functions and capabilities and decided that she was the one for me. My wife asked "why?" I replied: "it's a guy thing". I scoped out ways of funding the vixen.I sold my iPod nano and a Samsung cellular for $112. I figured I'd receive the remaining $188. from Christmas cash gifts.Decided upon the 8GB model which I received from Amazon in two days. The look and especially the sleek feel of the iTouch are amazing. I plugged it into my computer for its initial sync. The iTunes software recognized the new machine, eradicating the last bit of reference to my beloved iPod nano. The 3.3GB sync took about 2 hours start to finish. The Touch's basic set-up and operation are fairly intuitive and all was well until I attempted a wifi connection. My home LAN is wired, but with the advise of a friend, I purchased a wireless router for my personal wifi access (don't get me started, puchasing equipment for a wireless LAN is a MAD story unto itself). I got the wifi working. I punched numbers and letters into the iTouch. I pushed the Safari, You Tube, and iTunes areas on the Touch. Her response: "cannot connect to ______, can't find server".In the interim, I purchased theUniversal Apple iPod USB Charger Kit - USB Retractable Hotsync Cable - USB Home Travel Charger - USB 12V Cigarette Lighter Chargerand theDLO HipCase Leather Folio for iPod touch (Black)). Both are very nice by the way.I began to have syncing problems with the iTouch to the point where I returned it to Amazon for a replacement.Initially, I had syncing and drive recognition problems with the new machine but I finally resolved same.The iTouch Information Manual provided as a PDF download from the iStore was ineffective in solving my wifi problems. The router's information on the net was very helpful and I now have access to Safari, You Tube, and iTunes which is really cool.In summary, the iPod nano 4GB cost about $200 ($175. for the set and $25. for a case) and a couple of setup hours. She operated flawlessly.The iTouch cost (so far) is $370: ($279. + 60. + 20. + 6.) and many hours learning about iSyncing and setting up a wireless LAN. Why?It's a guy thing. | 34 stars

Router fails at 3 months
I bought this router for its wireless and wired capabilities and price.But after 2 months started losing connection intermittently. I did the troubleshooting and work a few times more... a month later:Again to start the same:- lose connection- automatic test in the router is activated- connection is still lost- connection is restored (1 or 2 minutes)I checked for firmware upgrade, I did this, and reset router and other config detailsbut the problem still continue and as the 3months warranty expired.It is router is gone...And customer service completely hides their email address.I would not buy a Netgear product again | 01 star

Incredible sound! Tiny but powerpacked!
This is the first MP3 player I have ever purchased and I am new to the whole business. But, I recorded our Easter Vigil Mass from the choir loft by setting it on top of the organ base and the entire Mass came out fabulous! Even the singing of the Exultet by the Associate pastor! The sound is great! Now, if I can just figure out how to transfer it to a CD so I can burn it for everyone in the choir!!! | 34 stars

Good Product for the money.
I got Garmin I2 after extensive research online and feedback from friends who use GPS. I narrowed it down to Garmin I2 or I3 for the reasons1.That you can get a 1gb transflash card for $45 and load the enitre map of USA and Canada and never have to go to your PC to load anything for the rest of the products lifetime.2.I wanted a GPS unit to navigate, i.e some of the newer and more expensive units have options of loading pictures and MP3(I got myself an Ipod for the money i saved getting by getting an I2)and yes some of the units have a remote control.3. Touch screen was one of the tougher decision I had to make. Its faster than the scroll wheel on Garmin I2, the cheapest garmin unit with a touchscreen was more than twice the price of Garmin I2(about $300 more). But they are bigger, i can slide I2 in my trouser pocket. Well, the trade off is it takes 30 seconds longer to type an address.Now that I had it down to two units(took me two weeks of research!), I chose Garmin I2 over I3 bcz(a) Its cheaper by about $85.(b) I had problems reading the color screen with my sunglasses on in a friends car, he told me the same too.(c) I think the battery might last longer on monochrome screen(not 100% sure).(d) The pixel count is higher on garmin I2 monochrome screen when compared to I3 color screen.(240 x 176 pixel VS 176 by 220 pixels)Pros of Garmin I2:1. Its small.2. Its as accurate as more expensive GPS units out there(it uses the same map software as other Garmin units use and its got pretty descent reception)3. The speaker is pretty clear and loud. You can hear it with windows down at 65 miles an hour and listening to music.4. Screen is very clear, I love the monochrome screen. It dosent fade in sunlight.5. Very easy to use, its one of the few electronic gadgets you dont need a manual to operate.Cons:1. I wish they had a rechargable battery, this thing sucks up AA's.I am forced to use 12 volte adapter cable(comes along), and i dont like wires running around.2.The suction cup is lousy, it keeps falling off the windsheild. Now i have it mounted on dash, its not so bad anymore.Overall its one of the better purchases I have made in years. Its got the value and looks good. | 34 stars

Perfect for a cool look in the garage
Great product overall. Love the mounting kit and how sturdy the strip stays. I hung mine vertically and it still stayed in nicely. Long cord was also good. I do wish, however, that it had a bit better spacing as too many large adapters will make it impossible to stack next to each other. | 34 stars

Cheap, but not spectacular.
Some mp3 players come with terrible earphones, making these a good value. Otherwise, they're pretty average--I'd probably go with the Koss Plug earphones instead. | 23 stars

Better than I expected
Initially, I was very skeptical of this lens because of the low price and certain bad reviews. After I received this, I was surprised to find that the exterior construction appears to be quite all right. Of course, this is not made of titanium, and you should always handle your camera with great care. However, the plastic surface and design are quit consistent with Canon's style. If you take care of your lens, I don't see how this will mysteriously fall apart with normal usage unless you purposely drop it on the floor. The photos are very satisfying as well. As the 50mm focal view is similar to what our natural eyes see, it's a great tool for me to practice my composition skill. I use this on my EOS 20D. The lens does not look that `cheap' as some people claimed. | 34 stars

Inexpensive & Working
I bought a couple of these to extend a stereo mini-plug line attached to a VGA cable (that also had to be extended) under a floor to the back of a room. They work just fine, with no noticeable loss in signal quality. They're simple and cheap enough to buy some extra for when you'll inevitably need another. | 45 stars

I can hear music, but I can also hear gears...
We bought one of those FM transmitters for our iPod. The transmit power was quite weak, so we thought we'd give the tape solution a shot. This one is definitely better than the FM transmitter. With the cassette adapter, we don't have to put the volume on the iPod or the stereo as loud as we would with the transmitter.The gears on the cassette adapter are pretty loud. When the iPod is at a reasonable volume, the adapter noise is very noticeable. | 23 stars
