Good quality and meets my expectation
I think you need this air blaster before trying to apply screen protector film to the screen， it is really useful. | 1positive

HP delivers
Very happy so far with our purchase of the HP L7680 all-in-one. It does more than my old HP R80 Office Jet did at half the price. Time will tell as to durability but having the ink jet nozzles seperate from the ink cartridges makes more sense and lowers the ink $$'s. | 1positive

Ugly Shelving abilities...
This equalizer is like most on the market, it doesn't actually have the abilities one wants for an shelvable eq in a vehicle. It's muddy and overdrives it's inputs at even the lowest of input voltages. The output is unstable and loses the ability to be balanced, therefore cancelling out it's outputs. I would recommend a trunk mount equalizer from Alpine or JL. | 0negative

Decent TV for the price
I bought this since I needed something basic, small (under 15"), and inexpensive to replace a 20 year old 13" Sony CRT TV whose tube just went out. Since I couldn't find a Sony with a small size and didn't want to spend nearly 3x's the amount for a 15" flat screen LCD TV, I looked for a Toshiba next since I've had sets from them before which lasted over 10 years.The picture tube quality of the Toshiba is about as good as the Trinitron which is good enough for me. After having read other reviews about the sound quality and volume on this particular television, my own experience is that there are no issues with the set I received with low volume (I have it at 7-8 which is about just 1/8th of the max level and it is pretty loud at this lower setting) or buzzing with the volume nearly off. The side firing speakers are decent enough since I'm not looking for this to be a home theater experience (I just set the bass all the way to the max to make it sound "fuller" instead of tinny).I tested all video inputs (3) including the composite video connectors and also had no issues with buzzing. The nice thing about this set is it also has an S-Video port on the back (most cheaper tv's have just one set of inputs and no S-Video).The side firing speakers do take up some space but the set is still compact enough to fit in the space that my 13" Sony was in. Weight wise, this unit is also very light. Setup is naturally pretty easy. The remote is decent and functional.As for negatives, the text label for the onscreen channel info is sort of thin and ugly and the light blue color can make the information difficult to see depending what is on the screen (the fatter green labels on my Sony stood out). The other negative is editing channel labels and manually "erasing" channels (so they can be skipped). On the Sony, you could just use the channel selector to move to the previous/next channel with the menu options remaining onscreen to allow easy changing. With the Toshiba, you have to exit completely out of the menu screen, change the channel, re-display the menu screen, and select the option you want to change (i.e. it requires much more input on the remote). This however is just a minor annoyance since this isn't done often.Overall, I'm pleasantly surprised by the value of the product since it is actually better than what I expected. Regarding reliability, time will tell if this television lives up to prior Toshiba sets. | 1positive

Not for action, disappointing
This case does not work well for running or other vigorous activity. Case attaches to armband with belt clip, the result is high profile and unstable and looks way un-cool overall. Maybe not bad to use with the belt clip while walking. Adds a lot of bulk to what is already a bulky player. Note that case does not look like the main photo on Amazon. | 0negative

Hoya slips up!
I purchased two of these filters; one for a Canon Vixia HF G10 camcorder and the other for my wife's Canon Powershot G9. The filters appear to be well manufactured with a very smooth movement. They can be a little tight when trying to remove. There is enough depth on them to affix a lens cap which is a plus. What greatly annoyed me is that both filters showed areas where the coating was missing. One of them appears to have a superficial scratch where the coating is missing, but there is no actual damage to the glass. Because my G10 has a filter mount much greater than the front lens element diameter, I am keeping the least damaged filter because the blemish is very close to the edge and seems unlikely to cause a problem. The other one is being returned. These problems do not appear to be any fault of the vendor because the filter packages are sealed, so I blame Hoya who should be ashamed of themselves. I've used Hoya with great satisfaction for 40 years, and this is the first problem I have ever encountered. Disgraceful. | 0negative

Read the Reviews, Don't Waste Your Money
I read the reviews, often stating these were an inferior product, but wanted to believe they would work. They do, one time. Then they dry up and your printer will give you an error message. Absolutely wasted my money on these, and would never do business with this outfit again. | 0negative

Wow..!! What a deal!
Paid $136 for this machine... and its amazing. I'm an experienced computer type.. and while, yes, its a tad bigger than your average laser or inkjet printer machine its WELL worth the minor extra space it takes. Its fast, quiet and produces perfect black and white printed pages. Its color printing skills are as good as my neighborhood Walgreens photo print service. I've used the copy function which is fast and with perfect results and finally have used the flatbed scan feature to scan documents to attach to emails to send to friends etc (don't have a fax machine at home so this is the perfect substitute. The machine was originally designed for Windows XP computers and sets up automatically for them. However, if you have the New WIndows VISTA (as I do) then just follow the simple attached directions to access the Windows site and download the appropriate Driver... really quite easy and quick. Bottom line.. this has to be the best value in the history of the world for a multifuntion machine which does ALL of its functions just as well as a bunch of dedicated machines (printer, photo printer, scanner, copier etc) | 1positive

I reviewed this item already????????????????
I starting to believe that amazon.com doesn't publish scathing reviews because I reviewed this purchase already. If I have to do this one more time I will be thru with amazon.com. This company charged me a restocking fee of 20% and took 3 days to charge back my credit card after I called them. What do I think? Don't waste your time your gonna loose money in the process.....and by the way the engenius antenna did not work at all!!!! | 0negative

Expensive but works great
The option is expensive, but works really well - exacly as advertised. Very easy and straight forward to setup and delivers the contents well. The complaint I have is a philosphical one - why not allow the standard HDMI connector / connections instead of the proprietary gadget for HD contents? It seems Sling Media just wants to nickel and dime us. However, this is their platform and they have the right to do it the way they want. What I can indeed say is that the gadget, albiet a bit expensive as comapred to perhaps just using a std HDMI option, works really well. If you can use it and can afford it, get... | 1positive

Horrible
Doesn't work with my PSP, makes it freeze. I have another 8GB stick that works but is slow, this was supposed to fix that....Also this was supposed to be for a brand new stick, this came loose in something that looked like a sandwich bag. Not happy with this purchase at all. Oh, and then when I reply back to that company that sold it to me to try and get some resolution, they pawn me off to someone else....very frustrating....will definatley think twice before buying through Amazon or it affilates again.... | 0negative

works as advertised
incredible stuff. since the suction cup isn't feasible nor legal for my car, I settled for this product. works really well, my garmin does not slide at all even through sharp turns.i gave it 4-stars because it takes up so much room and it's not exactly the best eye-candy. | 1positive

Cant Get It To Work

Solar Molar
I have purchased these before. They are quite adequate in doing their job - scaring off the moles. I used to find holes all over my flower beds and when I have one of these operational outside, this eliminated the problem. Only reason for 4/5 stars is they often die after a year or so and then I have to purchase another. | 1positive

SONY DVD/VCR Combo - PIECE O' CRAP!
We have yet to have a Sony that is reliable and works appropriately. This one is a Sony PIECE O' CRAP as usual. Should have learned our lesson with the first one but no, we had to get this one, and we've been SORRY since. When it does actually write the information to disc, the disc usually skips during playback. If it does write the information to disc, it will NOT finalize the disc, will, thus, corrupt the disc, and then eject with DISC CANNOT BE PLAYED OR WRITTEN! There is no meaningful way to clean it; in fact, manual states DON'T CLEAN so after only 60 days, the machine is UNUSABLE as a DVD recorder and unreliable as a DVD player. Sony remedies to NUMEROUS errors? Turn it off, don't operate in humidity, unplug it completely and wait and wait and try again, don't operate when too cold, don't operate when too hold. When trying to transfer home VHS to DVD, will stop every 2 minutes creating another title. If you want ours, it will be in on top of our garbage can this Thursday trash pickup! | 0negative

Wasted Money, Time and DVDs
This unit was great, for a few months. Then it decided it wasn't going to accept any DVDs, pre-recorded, blank, or it's own recordings.My story is pretty much the same as the majority of the reviews I've read on this unit, here or on other review sites.Wish I had read them first. Don't buy this unit, don't even use it for free. If you do, make sure you finalize every recording you make immediately.Otherwise you've just wasted your time and DVD. | 0negative

Bad quality pictures and bad quality camera
I bought this camera because it was small, light and pretty cheap, but I soon regretted it. The pictures at first were all right, although it took forever to recharge the flash, and it's really annoying. Then another thing happened, there were some pictures where some color were changed, specially red turned into purple, making very odd pictures. Although, it only happened a few times so I though I could live with it. Finally, less than six months after I bought the camera, it went nuts! The LCD screen is blurry and the lens protector won't close after a turn it down. I have taken good care of it. Good thing I still have the warranty, but still I don't recommend anybody buying this camera, go fo the other brands: Olympus, Sony, etc. I have not had problems with those | 0negative

Lots of sound but no picture!
I bought this for my dad for Christmas. When I hooked it up it only produced sound - a cd played fine, but with a dvd I only got the audio - NO PICTURE!! Let's face it - when you want to watch a movie you want to see a picture. As I travelled internationally and didn't want to haul it back on a plane with me it was an expensive addition to the recycling bin. Had to buy my dad a different dvd player locally (Panasonic) which worked just fine. Save your cash - go for a brand that actually cares about their reputation. | 0negative

I really like it
A roller that's Easy to carry as well as pretty, and very light. I am a 122 lb woman with neck and shoulder pain, this is just about perfect for me because it eliminates difficult carrying (via rolling) and even if I have to carry, it's well designed for that. I really recommend it. One minus, I had hopes of using it as an overnight bag for the airplane but, Unless you just had a pair of underwear and a toothbrush, it is too small. Not really room for a change of clothes unless you are extremely ingenious. Well maybe. | 1positive

Overpriced
I cannot get over how much Apple is asking for this device. I was looking at the Ipod and the RioRiot. And it came down to this: 10 gig player: 500$ 20 gig player: 300$The size factor and apple chic factor is nice, but not worth 200 dollars more for half the storage.As for transfer speed: how often are you going to be transferring a large number of files to it? I loaded mine once and am set.If you are willing to carry a portable that is a little larger you can save alot of money and carry twice as much music with you. | 0negative

wish it didnt stick
I got the 7" for christmas and 7 new dvd's. only 2 would play without STICKING. i played them in a regular dvd player and they were fine. one person called it FREEZING, because of heat build up. mine did it within one miniute of first use. So I dont think it is just heat. I am taking it back,,and havnt decided to give another unit a try yet. The more times I tried to get some dvd's to work, the more problems accured, started to not load,wouldnt shut off, wide screen dvd.s went to a smaller size,,it just went haywire. I am wondering ifitis one someone brought back,as it was trouble from the beginning. Great picture and sound when it did play without stopping | 0negative

Don't bother if you have a LCD
I work for a company and sell this on a regular basis. After using this product at home on my LCD I feel bad for ripping so many people off. If you have a plasma this works just as well as windex. If you have a LCD don't bother using this stuff as it leaves streaks all over your TV. Don't use anything with alcohol either but I would say a damp cloth with water is a better choice than another rip off product from Monster. MONSTER BULL$%@T | 0negative

Cowon A2
I waited awhile before posting this review. As my tagline states.. I am very fickle about my tech devices.[Pro's]I got the device, configuration was a snap. I got everything on the product list in the box.What can I say folks.. it works![Con's]1. Features could be more flexible.2. You can't change the clock from military time to 24h format.. there is simply no option for it on this device or any device in this series. I checked.. no dice!3. I STRONGLY! suggest that you load your music to the device before!!! trying to use the lyric software (which you have to download separately). then use the program on the device and not your music folder. If you make this mistake the software will destroy whatever lyrics you have in the music files when it inserts the [cowon a2] tag into the lyric header.4. If you are "not" a video gaming GURU! with lightning fast reflexes and the ability to change the shape of your thumbs at will let alone contort them to bizarre angles.... I highly suggest that you practice using the control toggle. The one thing I recalled from another review was the user claimed the toggle broke after a short while and wouldn't do certain things. I cant say if that was the case with that user, but with me.. that was not the case. The toggle is very sensitive to movement so you have to develop the "right touch" for it. The pause/select feature is very fickle, you have to press straight down with a solid CLICK to make it work... you cant jiggle it in any other direction or it wont work as it should.5. the carry case has no type of belt clip.. you get a wrist strap... the weight and size of the device and the angle at which it hands make using it very awkward with headphones. I suggest getting a reinforced neck lanyard instead. This will keep it from flopping all over the place. Otherwise it slips nicely into a "standard" back pocket.. I just run the headphone cable underneath my shirt to keep it out of the way. If you need to sit down just slip the device back out of the pocket as it makes sitting tricky.overall I did get what I paid for.. the device has good sound and great video.. learning the device took minutes.. nothing complex... PLEASE allow the device to charge for the first 15hrs before loading. the company suggests this and I recommend it. | 1positive

Terrible CD-R CD-RW compatibility
I make lot of home video in VCD format on CD-R & CD-RW discs, this unit has terrible compatiblity when reading these discs, it play the slow rated 8X or slower CD-R/RW OK, but virtually all the blank CD-R/RW disc are high speed rated like 32X to 40X, the player just won't read those disk at all half the time, those it reads but skipps a lot. So if you want just play commercial type DVD movie, it's a great player, but for home made CD-R/RW recordings, forget it. Get an APEX DVD player, it reads them all. | 0negative

GREAT sound and video quality
I have had this camcorder for about a month and have really been empressed.Though you cannot transfer this to your computer well, connecting it to your TV is chrystal! It does not have the static sound to it. It is a great cam for those who are just wanting the best for their money. | 1positive

Month then flop
After a month to the date of purchase the USB stopped working. Maybe it's just the quality of the product. The service from the seller however was EXCEPTIONAL!!! With very FAST shipping/delivery. I will definitely look for other products from this seller but may look to buy a new USB through a retailer for longer warranty!! | 0negative

Not reliable
I bought two of this hard drive at the end of 2006. They both died within one month interval after two years. A quote I got for recovering each hard drive was $1800 (based on the specific problem). I could not reach the technical support of Acomdata at all.My other hard drives do not have such failure so far. | 0negative

Unreliable -- not worth it
I've been using USB transfer cables every day for years to keep my desktop and laptop synchronized. This is the first time I've used one with JetLan (PCLinq2) software and the experience has been horrible. I can't transfer more than one small file at a time without the software locking up. I've been trying for an hour now and anything bigger than about 20 MB just won't go across (smaller files do fine). This is under WinXP SP2. Also, the software defaults to the C:\ root drive and doesn't seem to have a way to override the default starting directory for transfers. Do yourself a favor and find a cable with better software. | 0negative

Wireless vs. corded mice
After owning this mouse for a while now, I can justifiably say, it's still the Greatest Mouse I have ever owned. It uses only one AA battery, and has a removable USB plug that fits into the bottom when not in use, shutting the mouse off, and saving the battery life. I use rechargable batteries and replace a recharged battery in it once a month. I use my computer 16-19 hours a day too. By far the greatest cordless mouse I own. | 1positive

The best hub out there!
I recently bought a Dell laptop and it does not send enough power down the USB line to drive my scanner. Technical support recommended a powered USB hub.I tried just about all the major brands (Belkin, D-Link, Linksys, etc.) and none of them worked. Some wouldn't power the scanner at all. Others would, but then if I re-booted the computer, the scanner would no longer be recognized. I would have to unplug the scanner, re-boot, and then plug it back in so that the OS (WinXP) would recognize it.I must have tried 1/2 dozen hubs and I was pretty much ready to give up when I finally bought this Aten model from Amazon. It works great!I highly recommend this as it does everything a hub is supposed to do and much more than all the others. It's also very small (the image above makes it look bigger than it really is) which is great because it hardly takes up any space. I love it! | 1positive

VCR Has Problems
I had the unit just over a year and only used the VCR ten times or so. It started rejecting and eating tapes. I called Panasonic, described the problem, and told them of the many people on-line who reported problems with the unit. Since it is out of warranty, Panasonic was unsympathic. They do not seem to care that they manufactured a faulty device, and are not going to do more than their warranty obligates them.When I had problems with a Sharp Camcorder that was out of warranty, and Sharp knew that they were at fault, they sent me a new model free.Panasonic knows this is a faulty unit, and is hoping that customers won't use it enough to discover the problem within the warranty period. | 0negative

Samsung P721 : Definite Buy !!
Samsung P721 DVD Player has once again proved the technical creativity/competance of Samsung as a Consumer Electronics leader.This player has a very unique feature set that complies with the conventional DVD feature set and add several next generation features that are bridging the gap between PC's and consumer electronic boxes.The P721 offers superior Progressive scan output and supports DVD/CD-DA/CD-R/MP3/VCD formats and has added support for Memory stick interface.There are no other DVD models with support for memory stick. With this player, you can simply insert a memory stick from a digital camera and view thumbnails or full screen images on your TV set that is hooked to the P721. Additionally, you can copy MP3 files on a memory stick using a PC and the P721 will decode the files on the Memory stick and plays them back with perfection!.The GUI on this player is totally superb and very simple to follow thru. Overall the player has more to offer when compared to other players that are in the same price range. | 1positive

Not good.
If you're even considering buying this product, think otherwise. I bought it when it was $1,000, a year later laptops from HP & Dell from the same generation that run about $600 blow it out of the water. By far, it is the worst machine I have ever used trying to play games. Games like, Counter Strike 1.6, it gets a very very very very low FPS rate of about 10-20. Vista runs like death on it and everything runs slower and becomes intolerable over time. Battery life is ok for me at least, probably the only PRO to it. Currently, software is falling apart and Microsoft Explorer locks up every few minutes, harddrive is failing and data is being lost. It almost never updates, problems with its own drivers. Hardware wise, for some reason, my DVD-RW drive that's in it, does not want to read DVDs anymore. For some other reason, a piece (not sure what it is, but it's small) broke off and not movement of the laptop turns it into a very expensive morocco. The most annoying part is that any obtuse angle in movement of the screen results in weird green banding/lines spreading across the screen.I've done nothing but major web browsing and (tried to) do some mild gaming with this laptop. I've always taken care of it and know my way around computers. It's just an awful product. Don't buy it, at any price. | 0negative

You get what you pay for.
I purchased another VisionTek video card (model 5564) just 8 months ago, and I have to say that I'm not terribly pleased with the company's committment to customers. When I installed Microsoft Flight Simulator, it wouldn't detect my video card; so like any well-trained consumer, I went to VisionTek's site to download the latest drivers. But lo and behold! VisionTek's site offers no drivers or support for any model prior to the 9100, when they switched from Nvidia chips to ATI chips. The support that _is_ available is sketchy at best--two FAQs and a forum, where strangely, there's no place to post questions on any earlier product either. When I wrote their customer service organization for help, the advice I received was a one-line response suggesting I update the drivers. Thanks, VisionTek. Before you purchase this, or any, VisionTek product, make sure you check their website and find out more about their ongoing support. My advice? Spend a little more and buy a card from a company with a better reputation. I hope this was helpful! | 0negative

Love it! Love it!
I got this wireless mouse for my laptop. It was resonably priced. Received in the mail pretty fast. I did read most of the reviews before purchasing this item. Im glad I made the investment. It fits very comfortably in my hand. Even though the USB port is on the left side of my laptop and I am a right handed mouser it never lost connection, skipped or paused while in operation. Some reviewers were not crazy about the speed of scrolling but I am quite pleased with it. The scrolling nob in the middle of the right and left click does have a little bit of a bumpy feel when scrolling up and down, like if you rubbed your finger across corderoy. | 1positive

feels like a child's toy; mirror breaks
If you have ever held a real SLR (Canon, Fuji, Olympus, etc.) SLR film camera in your hands, don't WASTE YOUR MONEY on this thing. It feels like it is made of the same plastic used at to make the toy cameras at the dollar store. The battery cover will break after a few battery changes; the lens rattles like it is going to fall out. It is smaller and less professional looking that you might imagine.After flipping from LCD to viewfinder about 10 times, the mirror on the one I ordered began to stick.Do youself a favor...if you are considering this camera, go to W..mart and pick one up and see how it feels. Then if you still like it, come back to amazon and order it. (It is about $80 cheaper at Amazon!). | 0negative

Good Card, Bad Fan
I bought one of these, was very happy with the performance of the card itself, however, the fan died and by the time the source of the problem was found the card was damaged beyond repair. So, thinking this was a fluke I again bought the same card, but lo and behold the fan died AGAIN, this time I've hopefully caught it before the damage is permanent and have replaced the fan, but I will never buy a Radeon again. | 0negative

Fair.
They look neat, sound fair, and tangle quite easily. Despite their appearance, they really are not well designed for active people. While running, sweat somehow manages to run down the plastic clips and "flood" the ear buds. It did not long before they started to sound weak, and lose bass response. Finally my right side blew, even though my MP3 player has a pretty mild sound output.I got a few months of use out of them, and am debating getting a new pair. I don't like the idea of disposable hardware; I expected much better from Sony. | 0negative

I ordered the i320 Canon printer because I used one for 7 years till it quit feeding paper. The 1st one I ordered was re-furbished and would not feed the paper The seller gave me my money back and did not want the printer returned as they had another one & tested it & it did not feed paper either.So I ordered a 2nd i320 from another seller that was brand new & cost way too much. It arrived still in it's original box and packing, removed all packing set it up and paper would not feed. I contacted seller they do not want to refund my money. I checked with Canon and they said these printers are no longer fixable & they sent me a 20% off coupon.I am in Canada and had to pay shipping even though it was advertised as free shipping plus $68.00 for duty fees. I can not afford to send it back. The company is The Quick Ship Warehouse. | 0negative

Won't work in Dimage 7i
Inserting this card in my new Minolta Dimage 7i (digital camera), I get an "Unable to use card" error. The card is evidently incompatible with the 7i. Others have had the same experience. See the digital camera forums.Check the compatibility chart at minoltausa.com before you buy! | 0negative

Great item
I bought this item for my band rather than spend $549.00 for a Furman line voltage regulator that does the same exact thing. The APC LE1200 Line-R 1200VA Automatic Voltage Regulator does exactly what is supposed to do - regulate high and low voltage line currents to a steady 120 volts. When I turn on my power amplifiers the voltage drops (indicated by the lights on the LE1200) then in about 3 to 5 seconds, the voltage comes back up to 120 volts (again indicated by the lights on the LE1200 and an audible click you can hear). Prior to buying this product, we were having problems with feedback due to the low voltage not letting our electronic equipment work at the proper voltage level. This is now a thing of the past. I would highly recomend the APC LE1200 Line-R 1200VA Automatic Voltage Regulator to anyone in a band. Because, almost every club or venue where your band will play has low voltage issues. | 1positive

A perfect match with my Olympus VN-4100PC.
I decided to purchase the Olympus ME52W microphone to use with my Olympus VN-4100PC digital recorder. I am very glad that I did because it really seems to be a perfect match. The sound quality and sound pickup of the Olympus VN-4100PC recorder is very good with the built in mic, but matched with the Olympus ME52W microphone is simply outstanding. I just recieved the microphone yesterday from AMAZON and I have only made about a dozen or so test recordings. The sound pickup and clarity with the microphone in actually sounds twice as good, and I am very happy to say the least with this product. I also must say that AMAZON did a great job getting it to me really fast and in perfect NEW condition. If you happen to have an Olympus VN-4100PC recorder you should really consider the Olympus ME52W microphone,I know you will be very happy that you did. | 1positive

very poor build quality
I am really frustrated with Sony and my Alpha DSLR, a product with inferior build quality and a customer service that lays the blame on me instead of acknowledging quality problems. I have bought it sometime in 2007 and only had problems with it. After some weeks it just wouldn't turn on anymore and it took Sony several weeks to get it repaired and back to me. Now when I take pictures the resulting file shows a different field of vision than what the viewfinder showed me. Even worse, there is a black right upper corner in every one of my picture. After several tries to get to the right person to help me, Sony told me that any repair would cost a fixed amount of 114.56. Without even knowing what is wrong with my camera. Asking if this functional failure is normal for a Sony product after three years, I was told that this is normal "wear and tear". For me a camera that is expected by the producer not to last longer than the guarantee period of one year, is not worth paying for. My next camera, or any electronics product for that matter, will for sure not be a Sony product. I recommend for everyone planning to buy one of their products to think hard about how long he/she plans to use it for. | 0negative

so far, so good
The setup was easy with windows 7. Photo printing and plain paper printing are both excellent. Photo printing is surprisingly fast. The feeder for the copy function is nice. I don't use the fax feature so have not set it up. I especially like paying half of what I paid for ink for my old printer. As a home user I don't place heavy demands on a printer so it will be some time before I really know how well the printer holds up and if the ink will not dry out when the printer is left idle for a month or two while I travel. | 1positive

The best low cost earbuds
These are the most comfortable earbuds I've ever used. The form fitting foam inserts are the best on the market and the frequency response is exemplary. Great bass and exceptional hights. For the price, there isn't a better set of personal earphones and even when price is considered, they rank near the topKoss pioneered headphones way back when and they continue to be the standard for this type of device | 1positive

Amazing! You won't be disappointed...
This laptop stand is very practical, easy to use, rugged, portable, inexpensive, lightweight, elevates your laptop for better viewing and keeps it cool all at the same time. I did a lot of research into the different types of stands available (iGo Notebook Stand, Xbrand Cool Travel, StandIt, iCurve, Koolsink, Macally Ice Pad desk etc etc) and this was by far the best solution for sitting my 15.4" laptop on while I'm working at my desk.The genius of this product lies it's simplicity. Amazon hasn't put a picture here (at the time of writing) but the stand basically functions as 2 plastic rods joined with a pin that can be expanded to make an X shape (rather like a pair of scissors) elevating the laptop and allowing airflow underneath. They're taller at one end to create a 15 degree angle and can be snapped together in a nanosecond to fit in your laptop case (making something that looks like 2 giant chopsticks, about 14 inches or 40cm long, 2 inches or 5 cm wide at one end and 1 inch or 2.5 cm at the other).I also use a Dexia Rack (which is more of a true stand, also highly recommended!) when I need to bring my laptop up to eye-level for doing digital illustration with my wacom tablet or sitting on the couch while websurfing (to keep my gonads from being irradiated). But for everything pretty much everything else that I do at a desk (Actionscript programming, Graphic Design with Photoshop/Illustrator, Gaming etc) my laptop sits on top of this! | 1positive

Buy with Confidence
Amazon sells this SVGA Cable made by cables unlimited, a quick search on the manufacturers website will give you a little more information on the premium quality material they use. I was afraid the cables would be too thick at first from looking at other types of VGA/Audio combo but this wasn't bad. The audio cable is about 1 feet long so it should reach across your laptop on any side with no problems. Audio sounds good, video looks good and costs a couple bucks more but it's sold directly from Amazon, so buy with confidence! | 1positive

DO NOT BUY THIS ROUTER!!!
I got this thing as a replacement for my Belkin Pre-N. MAJOR MISTAKE!If you only need the Internet to check your email occasionally, this router is fine for you. However, if you count on your router for your business or need a consistent, reliable router this one should be ABSOLUTELY avoided.It's like a kid's toy.It worked fine for the first month, AND when it works, it works fine. BUT, as is well documented here on Amazon and on other sites (like CNET), this router WILL DROP THE MODEM'S SIGNAL AT LEAST ONCE A DAY.I will set my computer to run tasks at night and wake up to find the signal had been lost in the night, then forced to tell my employer I did not finish my job because of "internet problems"-- sounds like a weak excuse. VERY EMBARRASSING.And now it happens everyday. My employer is learning that I am NOT someone who can be counted on.This is the first router I have ever owned that has COST ME MONEY.If you are a working professional who depends on your computer system for your livelihood this router WILL MAKE YOU LOOK BAD, AND WILL CAUSE YOU DAILY PROBLEMS. THIS ROUTER WILL DAMAGE YOUR REPUTATION.But hey, if you just want to check out the latest stories on TMZ and don't need reliability, go for it. On the occasions it works, it works great. Strong signal throughout the house AND the idiot lights on the front are genius. Why doesn't every router have those lights? | 0negative

Pleasant surprise
I was a little skeptical about this mount, but have been VERY pleasantly surprised. I use my GPS mostly in a Toyota Prius and wanted to avoid mounting on the windshield. Have had absolutely no problems with it sliding or changing positions. A great accessory. | 1positive

Limited usage
The Action Jacket fits snug but covers the data port on the bottom. The plastic film covers the wheel and makes it difficult work the controls as you lose the "feel" of the wheel. The belt clip is not removable.Bottom line, I took it back. | 0negative

A nice buy...
This was a great buy for me. I work for the county of El Paso and every device has access codes. It is very inconvient for a contractor like myself to use office equipment. This is why I purchased a portable scanner. This scanner is light, compact, fast, and super ease to use. The software is clear and to the point. You can preview the scan as it is happening and gives you the option to rescan that particular page without altering the whole document. I can scan pictures but I haven't tried it. The only reason I did not give it 5 rating was when you feed the document sometimes it pulls the paper in a weird way and makes the scan look awkward, I gues this is why it has a rescan document feature. Another big thing was that it used the power from the laptop not a dedicated power supply. Overall I recommend it and rate it 4.75 stars. Make sure you shop around for the best price. Happy hunting. | 1positive

Review of SanDisk 1 GB Ultra II S/D Memory Card
I installed the card as soon as I received it to check it out. I've used SanDisk products before and always been satisfied. This was no exception, it preforms flawlessly. Now it is all ready nearly full and I am in the market for another. Where do you think I am going to go? The only difference is that I'm going to get a bigger one.It came two days early and the packaging had more protection then factory shipment. I am genuinely impressed with the service and the product. | 1positive

precise sound
I have been listening to my analogue sound system for over 30 years and decided to come into the new century with new equipment. I was afraid that the Sonys would sound a little tinny and sharp like so much of what I hear nowadays. The speakers are much warmer, and precise, than I expected. They have melded with my loudspeakers very well. I use them as my rear surround. They do a very adequate job, and at a very good price. I am pleasantly suprised. | 1positive

Great starter Tablet. Confusing setup.
The setup is confusing. Once you get it going it is fantastic. The pen pressure feature makes it feel like you are actually using pencil & paper. It opens and closes other programs you can choose. Overall it was well worth the sale price. | 1positive

Garbage..
This item worked well for the first three days and then quickly turned to garbage. Started dropping the signal on about the fourth day and just kept getting worse. After a week I went back to a hard wired system, I dont recommend this product and will never purchase again.. | 0negative

Very short life
I bought this for my Epson WorkForce 40 Wireless Color Printer (C11CA27201) as a replacement when the printer reported having low ink. It lasted for maybe two uses. We had made sure to that the printer was clean and that it was properly installed, but we soon got a message that the ink was out. We're now purchasing a different brand because either this cartridge was defective or Epson is simply gouging customers. On another note, our printer itself is frustrating and doesn't work. It seems that Epson isn't high-quality, like we had thought. If this next ink cartridge doesn't work, we'll be purchasing a new printer.Edit: We've since bought a different set of cartridges and have had no problems. It's been used many times in the past weeks and is still churning out pages. | 0negative

Make sure one of the three presets is station free where you want to use this device!
Item is basically useless to me. I took a shot at ~15 bux and oh well. Money down the drain. It has only has 3 settings for stations, and for 95% of my commute, all 3 stations (88.5, 88.7, 88.9) have something on them. Of course I checked before I bought and in my DRIVEWAY I can use any of them. As soon as I turn off my street, this item is useless as even the most static-y station will override the transmitter. I guess you get what you pay for, or in this case, you don't even get that. | 0negative

The Garmin Mount
Once you place this on your dash board you will notice it is very hard to slide around if you can even make it slide. It is a heavy pad that seems to stick to the dash board without any kind of glues or adhesives. The rubber pad and the weight make it kind of freeze into place. If you have a Garmin, this is not a bad item to get. The mount that comes with a Garmin mounts to the front windwhield, the problem with that is, you either leave it in place telling criminals that you have a Garmin or it leaves a ring on the glass telling them the same thing. Criminals will break into your car just because they think you have one in the car. | 1positive

Ow ow ow ow ow
First off let me say that these earphones provide great sound, BUT you can't use them for more than 5 minutes without your ears being split in two. I wore them for about 15 minutes and my ears were red for the rest of the day. I fixed this problem by cutting sections out of the plastic tubes and then melting them back together. After this they fit perfectly, but I still had a problem with them slipping out of my ears. Overall these are great earphones if you want to spend time modifying them, but I would reccomend something else... | 0negative

Stay away from this piece of junk
I've had this for a few months now. The installation was reasonably easy, and I have the same complaints about mionet that everyone else has. However, the device simply goes offline intermittently for no reason. When this happens the front on/off switch also stops responding so the only way to reset it is to unplug and the plug it back in. Now it is useless to me as a backup or storage device. My only actions of recourse now are to return the unit or find another SATA NAS enclosure and use the drives that came in it. If I had to buy this device again I never would have. | 0negative

not recommended
Buying this camera I learned that ISO 3600 is more a con than a pro. Any picture with ISO superior than 400 or 800 is way too grainy. Also Super steady shot is just not enough, pictures with low light (not dark) do still look shaky. Sony should try harder.One more thing, the edition effects that the cammera offers (i.e. colorizing) are much worst than in other brands (like cannon). | 0negative

Great for two minutes
This printer was great the first few times I used it, then the NIGHTMARE! IT IS NOT RELIABLE!! Each print quality is extremely different from the previous. I'm a graphic designer and CAN NOT have this happen. Then it uses up SO MUCH INK that when I simply need it to print a text document it refuses to. Why? Even though the document is simply black text on white paper, it will NOT BUDGE if the light cyan ink is finished. This has been the biggest waste of money in my arsenal. It is waayy too expensive to be so problematic. | 0negative

Great Choice for your Center Channel
I've completed several DIY speaker and sub projects so I'm familiar with driver / speaker construction.The drivers on these appear to have a rubber surround - this is good b/c it's a very long-lasting material unlike foam. The drivers themselves appear to be of (very) high quality. I haven't examined the crossover network (the electronics within the speaker box) so I can't report on that.The cabinet is also of pleasing quality, nicely finished black wood grain, doesn't look cheap, and the compact size is a big plus because it is as unobtrusive as you could ask for and still get a quality sound.Speaking of sound - it's very nice. I use it for movies only and it was a welcome improvement over an old 80's center channel that lacked high frequencies and often made dialog difficult to follow.I made sure I owned this a while before I reviewed it, about a month and maybe 10 movies, got this unit on sale 5-08 but I'd buy it again at twice the price and possibly more. | 1positive

misleading product description
This product labeled as a 4x dvd-r is incorrectly labeled. I ordered it and returned it twice because Amazon sent me the 8x dvd-r. If they don't have a 4x in stock they should NEVER substitute with another format. These do NOT work in all DVD burners. Very inconvenient and a waste of time waiting for the item | 0negative

Close but not close enough to perfect
They could have been the most perfect 2.1 speakers, but when the unwanted pops and clicks started I just wanted to give them away to get rid of the noise. They are very powerful the wired remote is a plus for me, because my children tend to loose my remotes. They are easy to setup and I have no problem with the size and placement of the speakers in my computer setup. But the poping and clicking is driving me crazy. I must turn the speakers off when not using them or the poping and clicking will remind me to trun them off. It's not the speakers I have switched from right to left and the noise is still there. I have shut down the computer and detatched the speaker cord fromt the soundcard and the noise is still there. The problem is with the amp itself. I will contact tech support and see if I can RMA them. It's a shame that this set of speakers are rated THX and they suffer from a poor electrical design. Now I must spend more money and purchase another pair of speakers from another manufactor. | 0negative

Terrible warranty and support - Cannot recommend any ATP Products
This review would be for the ATP Pro Max 4GB card. However, after 3 attempts, I have yet to receive a working card. I purchased this as part of a camera package from another vendor, and received the ATP card.Out of the box, the card does not format with 2 different cameras, nor a laptop. After contacting ATP and paying for shipping back to them, they sent another card, which again does not work. Third time is the charm, but alas, the card did format and I was able to take pictures, but now it is frozen and I cannot view, retrieve, browse the pictures, nor can I format the card. Again, I need to spend money on shipping to send them a defective product back.This is extremely low quality memory from a company that offers poor support and has an awful warranty policy. | 0negative

5 STARS
This mic sits beautifully on my Canon T2i. It looks professional, has amazing sound quality, and for the price it is AMAZING. I ordered this item on December 22, and I received it on December 23. I didn't even order overnight shipping, but I was so excited to see the product come 24 hours after I ordered it. This mic is not too heavy, nor too light. It is right for any camera, even DSLRs. | 1positive

STICKY
After reading other reviews, I was not convinced it would work. After getting to put it through my driving test, it works, good. I did not check it on a race track, but if you are driving not to attract attention, it never moved. If you hit some bumps while driving turning/braking... , it will slide, but anything not stuck down will do that.It is bigger than I expected it to be, and does not do anything for your dash aesthetically; but I could not find another way to portably mount my GPS. I would definitely recommend this. | 1positive

wish I had gotten a bigger one.
I like it, but I wish the cable was a little bit longer so I could reach for tools that are not on the mat and such. But it does its job wonderfully and I thank it for that, but I wish I had gotten a bigger one. That way I can work on a large computer build and still have room to have the parts laying around. I am deducting a star for the cable. I should have checked the measurements before I purchased so that is on me. But Still satisfied with it. | 1positive

quality stinks
the picture quality is really bad, and you can only adjust the hugh of the color with red or blue. the focus is not as sharp as *actual* photograph on the box. Installation was real easy, but so what, I needed the quality as promised, not ease. and that was just for the teleconferencing. For the video it look like something out of a science fiction space film alot of newton rings and special effects, way cool if I wanted them , no way to correct this, lord knows we tried. | 0negative

it went back to the store
I was dazzled by the quality of the still images produced by this camera. But it had problems I could not work through. I deemed it defective and returned it promptly. First; the camera would freeze intermittently during recording. Similar to a computer freeze. I had to remove the batteries to 're-boot' the camera. Not good! Second; the shutter response was slow and unpredictable, so actually taking pictures was not simple. The camera would take the image when it was good and ready to go, so the spontaniety went out of photography. Not good! Third; despite literature suggesting otherwise, the camera did not record sound and motion simultaneously. Movies were silent. Fourth; I found the toggle switch overly fussy and programming simple things like time and date took multiple tries. Fifth; when played back on my computer (and through 3 different media players) obnoxious advertisements were superimposed top and bottom on the movie images .... No instructions were given for removing this unwanted advertisement.I really wanted this camera to work. The images really were beautiful. I think Samsung products are great, but this camera was a bad match with my needs. | 0negative

Great for music, less spectacular in noise cancellation
These headphones work great for music but seem to work only okay for the noise cancellation feature. I was looking for a replacement pair of headphones for travel that could be used to block out the noise like my old pair of noise cancellation headphones from Brookstone. When turned on and not listening to music it sounds like white noise or static. Comfortable to wear and fit small heads well unlike some headsets. | 1positive

Almost as good as my old Rotel
I purchased this to replace an old Rotel 840 Amp, which in it's day supplied incredible sound quality at a price I could afford (in the 90s).

For those who have 2 ears and 1 brain this is a great Stereo Amp at any price. | 1positive
