and the tech writers have made the installation process so easy for people lick my aunt to follow .

however , its 3x optical setting is acceptable for 70 % of the shots that i take .

one downside though is that autofocus does not work well when battery is low .

i did not conduct a rigorous test , but just took some identical shots in identical lighting with both cameras , and the canon won hands down .

i also wanted to switch to broad com hardware ( which the linksys uses ) because my wifi menisci card in my dell laptop with lucien silicon in it used 70 % of my 1 . 2ghz laptop 's cpu when using the wireless at full speed .

the sound quality is also nice . . . after i hooked up my sony headphones instead of those factory earbuds it comes with .

2 . battery life is over 4 . 5 hours , compared to about 2 . 5 hours for the g2 or the 2 hours for most nikon 's .

with all its complicated features , the menus are easily accessible and the quality of the features is great .

this was possible due to the variable speed settings for any sized bit .

less than a cheap cordless drill or a laminate trimmer .

the file ripping/transfering software that comes with the player is easy to use .

the blue backlight is pretty cool .

i have to say that i am very happy with it so far .

i originally gave this camera 5 stars . when i had windows 98 it was wonderful but i got a new computer last november with xp the usb software is soho . . . not compatible with xp

after some consideration i chose the 40gb nomad zen xtra from creative , and i have not been disappointed .

i occasionally flip songs while working out as i accidently hit the pad even lightly ( yes i have it in maximum desensitized mode ) .

third , creative software allows you to keep two windows open to look at both the content on the player and the computer .

it ain 't cutting edge ( no pun intended ) state of the art with all the latest bells & whistles & it definitely ain 't pretty .

we 've purchased 3 universal remotes so far-all claiming to work `` apex `` dvd players and none worked .

the bass is deep and the treble is clear .

it can not be the computer or the owner , since i purchased mcgee anti-virus 8 and it installs and works fine with no problems .

to use the creative zen player with a subscription service , you need to go to creative 's web site , and download new software for your pc .

my sd500 focuses flawlessly , does not `` whine `` during video , and my pictures are razor sharp .

initially , i was very impressed , after loading 180 songs it seemed to function very well but then it would lock up on me and a battery removal remedied this , i then downloaded the upgrades and everything seemed to be alright .

as the 6600 uses 900mhz , it operates in more countries than the 6620 .

we keep the diaper champ in our daughter 's nursery and her room definitely does not smell like dirty diapers .

before you run out and buy an ipod , understand something : there are reasons the zen is worth encountering this kind of hassle , principally excellent ( for mp3 ) sound quality .

as far as dealing with network access of other computers this router is pretty good given the price- remember this router is the same one that was released right when the g standard was introduced to the market .

the unit seems to play all formats that i have put in it ( jpeg , kodak pic 's and dvd-r ) i have read other reviews and some good and so om not so good , but my feeling at this time is `` two thumbs up `` ! .

i just wished that it didn 't fill up so fast ! .

you can move the focus range to almost anywhere in the scene with the push of a button , and it has an on-screen manual focus mode that would be really helpful if shooting a scene that is tough to automatically focus .

the games are decent , but u only get 2 to start off with .

recent price drops have made the g3 the best bargain in digital cameras currently available .

it comes with a rechargable battery that does not seem to last all that long , especially if you use the flash a lot .

once again it won 't reinstall , even with online and email assistance from symantect technicians .

so much safer than the others that require a two handed operation ! .

especially the lcd is big and the camera quality is among the very best around .

it is crystal clear .

big lcd screen - at least for me , 2 `` is enough

finally the software used to put all the songs into it is vastly inferior to itunes on two levels , first it is poorly integrated into the overall player and clunky to use especially with tagging and second the wma audio format sucks , flat out sucks in terms of sound quality compared with the vastly superior aac format the apple ipod uses and it sticks you with one of the sub par paid music services such as napster instead of allowing to use the itunes store , which , if you ever plan to pay for your music , is by far the best .

has a great helpline .

am so glad i bought this camera .

placement of the buttons and software user interface is near perfect .

warning ! . the windows `` remove program `` feature does not do a good job of this , and neither does norton 's own removal program .

i was using the cheaper pail . . . and it worked ok until the opening device fell apart .

- the top that covered the battery kept poping off without much of a touch near the bottom latch .

5 ) the cheap , user-replaceable battery ( $ 50 from creative ) is a great advantage over the ipod 's battery which costs $ 100 to replace .

the hitachi m12v is a dream to work with , smooth starts , adjustable speeds , micro-adjustable depth , and plenty of power to spare .

i did not want to have high expectations for this apex player because of the price but it is definitely working out much better than what i would expect from an expensive high-end player .

the two biggest things is the excellent working speakerphone `` unlike the nokia 3650 `` and the superb reception nokia is known for in the gsm phones they make . . .

a larger memory card and extra battery are good things to buy .

very easy to use for someone like me who 's just hopping on the digital camera bandwagon .

seriously ! . i love it ! .

the wrt54g plus the hga7t is a perfect solution if you need wireless coverage in a wider area or for a hard-walled house as was my case .

as a portable player , it should feel a bit more durable .

the controls are somewhat harder to use , and there are some oddities about the software tagging system , but most people can live with this .

i can use it as a modem for my computer , connect with clients and friends , the possibilities are endless .

so , you might inquire , why don 't they make it a first priority to carefully , simply explain how download music from your music library to their device ? . ? . ? . this seems academic to me .

i think this is it 's biggest flaw .

it fits comfortably in my hand and pocket .

but if you use all bluetooth accessories , as i do , its really not an issue .

i must say , this one is quite slow to open an application .

in fact , i 'd have to rate it among the worst i 've ever encountered .

using your own bags is much cheaper and convenient .

reliability & build i dropped the player once from about 4 ft , and it fell hard , but kept on playing .

i have sent my ad2600 back to apex because it wo n 't play certain disney and other dvd movies ( no disc message ) .

with the automatic settings , i really have n 't taken a bad picture yet .

t610 supports only midi files .

i love my dark blue zen micro and would definitely recommend it .

i 'm sure i don 't use it to the degree of some of the other purchasers , but i really like it ! .

playlists can be generated on the fly ( which is a bit clunky but still a really nice bonus ) or by using the software , and there are a bevy of eq options .

getting the program to install properly has been a living hell experience .

a decent camera phone for taking quick pictures , movies , and having general all around fun with .

thankfully , creative has come through with a product that puts the ipod back in its place .

overall , the micro is a solid device and i haven 't fell into a problem with it yet *knocks on wood* .

i love this pail ! .

when i opened the box , i was shocked by the size of this thing . . . it 's tiny ! .

to install that version you have to uninstall from the window registery anything called symantec or nortron , . . . also from the common files in the program folder the symantec folder has to be deleted .

the menu allows you to search for files by artist , genre , and album quite easily .

it works great .

overall build quality , good macros-results , impressive video-quality , good pictures with flash ( good colours , sharp results ) , excellent auto white balance .

i tried to contact apex to return it ( i missed the amazon return period ) and it took 3 months to get through to their customer service dept .

this phone is great as a whole and is not like others with one or two good qualities .

i think the interface is great .

anything this phone does , it does perfectly .

however , this ultracompact allows the photographer to personalize his or her shooting preferences through a variety of preset and user definable modes .

i can tell using the phone that it feels a little flimsier than motorola 's do , but as long as i 'm not planning on dropping the phone or running over it with my car it should be just fine .

if you can get one with all the accessories and a cheap extended warranty , this is the player to get ! . highly recommended .

with a quick spin of the dial you can select shutter priority ( for high speed subjects ) , aperture priority ( for focal length ) or full program mode where the camera selects both for ideal photo quality .

i 've had nokia 's for years , and while this one is packed with whiz bang features it is disappointing for its primary use - a phone .

this is enough capacity and capability to do a complete household inventory , for example .

im able to keep my phone on for about a week ( mostly stand by ) to three days ( regular use )

another great feature for me anyway is the ability to load . wav sounds as ringers .

if you bring up an album , but absolutely hate some of the tracks , the zen will allow you to delete that from the playing order .

power for the tech-savvy , ease of use for the less fortunate .

one neat thing - i have taken some pictures in what i thought would be impossible lighting conditions pitch black rooms - no problem for the camera - rooms looked like they had ample lighting .

for the price and size and features , you can 't beat the price .

the ipod mini is smaller and sexier , albeit limited in supported formats and the rio karma is a far better value .

the main issue now is that this new zen micro seems to be the best on the market at least temporarily .

very sleek & stylish as well as the screen options and visuals it has .
