Bought Them 14 Months Ago, And I'm Shopping For New Ones
I'm part of the group that has had no luck with these. They worked in the beginning...then something fried inside the sub...returned them, got new ones...Same thing happened...now they are unuseable. They start to go when you hear the light crackling...then it moves into the bass distortion mode...now they just hum loudly with intermitent loud crackling. I'm now shopping for new speaker and when I saw that they were still available I just wanted to see what other folks were saying about them...WOW, I'm not alone! They look cool but they have a quality issue for sure...hit or miss I guess, a gamble for sure! | 0negative

Compact and Effective Power Strip
This is one compact and useful power strip. I bought this power strip based on all the positive reviews I read on this site. I bought it for carrying it on my India trip. I am currently using the power strip for charging my laptop (100-240 V adapter). I'm using it with the Belkin F8E449 Universal AC Travel Adapter in India (with 220 Volt outlets). The blue light faded after a few days, but I wouldn't care less, because otherwise it seems to work very well. It has 4 outlets that are spaced wide apart even to accommodate bulky adapters. It also has a built-in circuit-breaker with a reset button. It does not have an ON/OFF switch but I didn't need one for my kind of use. The build quality is excellent, and the cord is heavy duty. It is light and the foot long cord wraps around and fits nicely into any laptop bag. I would strongly recommend this for all travelers (domestic or international). | 1positive

Great at first but the screen cracked without warning!
I bought this TV 2 years ago from another store (their initials are BB) and was very happy with the picture and sound. Last week I had to take the TV off my wall to hook up another HDMI for my Blu-Ray player. When I turned the TV back on the screen was cracked and the picture was out. I have a 4 year extended warranty with "BB," but they told me that the warranty doesn't cover cracked screens. I now have a $2200 paperweight.Bottom line: The TV has a great picture but is obviously very fragile. DO NOT get an extended warranty from BB. This and probably most any other "extended" warranty will only cover very technical problems, not easily cracked screens. | 0negative

Good, when it works
Bought this player a few months ago, and it's crashed on me several times. Now it's locked up, apparently for good. When it worked, I really liked the sound quality when I used some better earphones than what it came with. The random play is a good function, but they all have that now. The touch screen concept is cool, but sometimes a bit hard if there's a specific song you want while driving or jogging. I've purchased several creative products in the past, including the Nomad II series, which eventually broke. Creative apparently does not have good quality control, although they are pretty innovative with the designs. Got a few months of good use out of this thing and the earlier crashes were fixed using the Creative website so I will give it two stars. I also highly recommend the napster service, unlimited downloads for $15 a month, which is great for these 5gb players. Time to buy a Rio... | 0negative

Kensington Expert Optic Trackball
I decided to give this a try based on other reviews from this site. Overall I am satisfied. I do a lot of video editing in Final Cut Pro on multiple screens, and my favorite feature is I no longer run out of mouse pad for long moves. Second best is the programmable buttons. They really save some time. The hardest part is deciding what combination you want. My only complaint was also mentioned by another review - for some reason they designed this with a tiny magnet underneath the ball inside the case. All it seems to do is make fine motion adjustments really touchy. REMOVE THE MAGNET and that "stickiness" will vanish. I would recommend this to anyone with large and/or multiple screens. | 1positive

A real kick in the butt
I bought two of these shakers to give me some nice feedback while playing the videogame "Dirt-2", an off-road driving simulator. I wired them in series giving me a total of 8 ohms which matched the resistance of my existing surround sound's subwoofer. This made wiring very simple. I simply took the wires running to my subwoofer and sent them to the two shakers mounted underneath my couch. This means I didn't have to buy any separate amplifier. My Kenwood surround sound amplifier allows me to adjust the volume to the subwoofer separate from the other speakers so I am able to fine tune the system to my liking. I am very pleased with the results. For under $100 it's a very nice enhancement to my existing surround sound system. | 1positive

Get Professional Picture/Video
I don't usually write reviews, but this lens is outstanding for the price. Perfect for portraits and closeups. I have an older Nikon 50mm and the Canon's build quality is not as sturdy, which is a con. But the picture quality is outstanding and it's very cheap. Highly recommended | 1positive

This mouse is no good.
I have owned this mouse for over a month now. I had previously owned a Logitech wireless mouse for 3 years. It was worn out and I needed to replace it. The Microsoft mouse does not track correctly on the screen. I have updated the software to the latest version, twiddled with the settings, placed the transciever right next to the mouse ( defeats the purpose of having a wirelss mouse doesn't it) and still am having problems. This is a waste of my money. I have problems with :1. The accuracy of the device. I repeatly can not click on icons or menu items. The mouse seems to get close to the item on the screen, and the either stops or jumps over it.2. Drag and drop is painfull. I pick up items to drag and drop, and guess what, the mouse seems to think that I want to drop it else where. I have had issues with putting items in the wrong folders, on the desktop, everywhere but where I want to place them.3. Productivity stinks. I have to repeatly do the same motion till I get it right. Come on, I have been using mice, on different systems now for 20+ years. I am not a idiot at this.I am being generous at giving this item 1 star. It should be taken off the shelves and not sold. | 0negative

Exactly What I Needed for a Mac Pro Blu-ray Drive Installation
After purchasing an Asus Blu-ray drive to install in my Mac Pro 2.8 GHz's second bay, I discovered that the computer's cable would not connect with the drive. As I soon learned, I needed an adapter…and after some research, I chose this adapter.It was exactly what I needed to complete the installation, and it has worked flawlessly with the BD drive. | 1positive

Need more cowbell in your music?
I am an audiophile only in the sense that I enjoy music and sound. I couldn't give you an in depth report on the relationship between Hz and dB but I can give you an average Joe review about these headphones.I notice that a lot of people reviewing these headphones put them through the rigors of travel by train and plane; noisy environments for sure. I put them through the motions slightly differently. I use them to combat gym chatter and the overbearing Nouveau Euro techno music that emanates from the gym room dedicated to aerobic and cycling classes as well as the tard metal stylings of Disturbed and Limp Bizkit that are being pumped over the gym loudspeakers.I'm happy to report that once these headphones are in my ears securely there is no unwanted noise penetrating my ears. I hear only what I want to hear. Except for one small surprise - I also hear MORE than I thought I would hear. Previously unheard instruments pop up in the mix. Formerly muddled background vocals are intelligible, and previously absent parts break though the mix like a ray of sunshine. Imagine having listened to a Rolling Stones CD for years and years and now, out of nowhere, you hear things that you haven't before. And with the preponderance of remastered Cds having hit the market and more on the way, the experience is bound to get richer and richer.So, in effect, these aren't just noise canceling headphones - they are superior quality headphones that deliver the goods not only in the noise canceling department, but in the audiophile department as well - you will now hear that cowbell that was meant to be there while keeping the outside world at bay.P.S. - don't be afraid to really shove these headphones in your ears. If you don't do that, they will sound tinny and metallic and if you happen to like bands like Wire, Gang Of Four and The Hives, your ears will bleed since the mix is already viciously thin and lacking in bass. Read the directions the headphones come with and you'll be well on your way to enjoying your headphones. | 1positive

You get what you pay for
These ink cartridges cost more than I'd like to pay, but I've tried cutting costs by buying competitors' ink cartridges that fit my Canon i70 printer.....They are cheap but short-lasting. It took me awhile to learn that I wasn't saving any money because I had to buy 2 or 3 cartridges to equal one of Canon's. | 1positive

Finally, a good low cost DVD Player

Not for anything other than the most popular consumer films
The first step in scanning either film or slides is to select the type of film used. NONE of the films in my library are included on the selection lists. The small print on the last page of the manual also says that it does not scan Kodachrome slides well. About 90% of my film library is Kodachrome 64 slides. It WON'T handle any film with an ASA of less than 100 or any very high speed films (some of mine are 800 and 1600 speed). When I say it won't handle them - technically, it can, but it takes at least an hour to fudge with the settings to get the scan to turn out like the original picture. This one's going back. | 0negative

My display had a reddish tint after using it
After receiving the Huey Pro I set it up as indicated by the manual. The process was very easy to follow and soon enough I was done with it.But...my screen now had a strong reddish tint. I repeated the process several times, but I got the same result. The system did not provide any method for tweaking the results, so it's either use the faulty profile or just turn it off, which I did.After consulting the Pantone website, I found that there's a known problem with the product. I submitted a problem report and I was sent a replacement unit free of charge.I have no received it yet so I don't know if it solves the problem or not, but in retrospect I wish I tried the Spyder instead. | 0negative

Bushnell Tripod Adapter
Poorly designed - won't securely fasten to binoculars - have to remove it to get binoculars back into case. Get yourself a Giottos Ball Head adapter instead - works perfectly - and a couple of bucks cheaper. Would return this Bushnell thing, but I have found another use for it. Nothing against Bushnell binoculars - have a couple of pair - and they are terrific. | 0negative

Very Attractive Drive...but.
The Cruzer Micro is a great usb drive but I has one glaring defect that brings the entire drive down. The drive holds alot. I was able to put my service pack 2 update on it which I would normally have to burn a CD for. Back up my pictures, my documents, my videos and some programs. Very handy for holding that bit of critical data that you cannot afford to lose.When you plug it in it has a glowing soft blue light. This is good on the eyes. Much better than the red of my previous flash drive.It is amazingly very small. It looks like an elite flash drive as it is metal encased by solid plastic. It does not feel cheap but very, very sturdy. And it looks nice also, pretty stylish. Some people think it is a bit slow but I say no more than a few seconds than the cruzer mini.The one terrble defect I can tell everyone to watch out for is the cap that covers the USB connector. The thing is soooooo slack it is not funny. I could not beleive that after spending so much money on a flash drive that such a defect could actually be manufactured. The cover ALWAYS comes off very easily. You'll find yourself as I did, hunting all over for the cover which is transparent to add more worries. I had to heat up the cover near a fire and compress it a bit so that it could have a nice, proper fit. Of course this means that the cover is 'scarred for life'.If you are not into 'plastic welding' I suggest you get a 512mb cruzer mini version of this drive or add a bit more and pick up the titanium which is a massive improvement in design and speed. | 1positive

Very good camera.
Very good product. Works with my iMac intel dual core system (OS X) even though it is USB 2.0 (vs. mac version which only utilizes FireWire). The only downside: it is a little slow, which causes a little bit of a blur when you move around during a video conference. Overall, it is a very good camera. | 1positive

Great little set of speakers
I just wanted something that I could plug my iPod Shuffle into soI could listen to music while working in the garage. Don't likebeing attached to those earphones all the time.Anyway, for the money, this little box can't be beat in my opinion.Runs on AC or battery. Does just what it says it does.Comes with a small pouch and the audio cable to connect directlyto the iPod. | 1positive

Very Pleased with Garmin 340
I recently did a 1700 mile trip in my Motor Home and the Garmin worked very well. We went through Canada, Vermont, NY, etc. What I really like is the street name call out and the fact that it tells you to stay right or left, etc. after you make a merge or come upon a turn. Visibility was good, accuracy was also good. I do wish it was capable of putting more than one via in the system...if you want that, you have to spend more. | 1positive

Great product!
This antenna improved my AM reception by 50% or more. Well worth the purchase. Please note that you may need to experiment with dialing in the freequency. Some stations are on or near the corresponding frequency setting on the antenna, others not so much. For example, to pick up the strongest signal for AM 850, I have to set the antenna at about 920. You may also need to experiment with the actual physical positioning of the unit. There really is not much you can do about atmospheric conditions, especially at night. A station's broadcast signal strength is what it is. Finally, I must point out that I have not tried this unit out on a portable radio, so my review may not apply to that situation. The two units I purchased are both connected to modular AM/FM reciever/amplifiers. In closing, if your an AM radio junkie like I am, this is a must-have product! | 1positive

Nothing but grief
I bought this for my small home office after my ever faithful C80 died after 3 years. I wanted the newer model because it was good for printing out decent photos and I have a lot of images of artwork to print out. As I am writing this I am on my third replacement printer, now the C88+ and I've gotten nothing but trouble from the C88 and the C88+Sometimes the machine will not print at all, so i had my assistant check it out. First she made sure the driver was set in Page Setup, but after a while it became even more pickier and the driver setting would change the driver setting on its own.Then after we got that fixed the printouts came out faded, even after a NEW BLACK INK CARTRIDGE WAS INSTALLED! We called Epson and they sent us the newer C88+ and still we're getting grief. The first one they sent over died after about a week and a half, it just refused to print and kept saying the ink was out immediately after we put in a fresh one, and now the new one we have is doing the same thing, so we're counting down till that one refuses to print.We have to jump through hoops to get these printers to work and they still end up gving back another problem or setting itself back to the same problem and when you're trying to run a business you have no time to babysit and obsess about a printer. When you buy a piece of equipment is it too much to ask that it actually work and do the task its created for? NO!Do yourself a favor and please don't waste your precious, fleeting time and money on this plastic piece of trouble and grief. | 0negative

Does what he promises
Since I dont like to use the printer dock, this dock is great. By having the adapter when I purchased my Z740 from Kodak, the camrea fits perfectly. The rechargable battery that is supplied works great and doesnt drain down at all. Just by placing the camera back on the dock and allowing my pictures to transfer, within minutes my battery is back to full capacity. It is a great dock and I highly recommend it. | 1positive

Don't Buy Panasonic DVD-RP62 Model
I purchased the DVD-RP62 DVD player because of the company's reputation for quality. After ten months of minimal use, the DVD player became stuck on the "stop" position, with no means to go into the "play" mode. The indication "HO7" appeared on the screen. From numerous other reviews on Amazon, I have found out that this is a common problem relating to the drive motor. The Panasonic instruction book and website was not helpful. I am very disapointed and will not purchase any additional Panasonic products. | 0negative

Buyers Beware! Defects and voided warranty
I got my Canon G5 on August through Amazon. In December the LCD has stopped working, and a few days later the Camera completely stopped functioning.At the time I was travelling with my wife to Europe and Canon refused to service the Camera. Apparently you can only get US local service to it (they even don't allow shipping back to the States) and get this - I took this to Amazon customer service which warned me that by taking this Camera outside the United States, "you void the manufacturer's warranty on this item. This could make any future servicing of the item difficult and costly."Since we are due to get back to the States only in 3 months, and I need a WORKING camera to shoot while on vacation, not when I am home, I had to pay today $350 to fix it and replace the "Optical Unit".I will never buy a Canon product again.Sony gives you worldwide walk-in warranty, no matter where you are you in the world you go or call a local Sony service center and get your Camera fixed.Now, that Sony offers CF and not just MemoryStick and with the excellent reviews it gets from the user community, there is really no reason to take the risk with Canon. Their Cameras ship with defects and the service is the worst I came across so far | 0negative

very functional, nicely priced, not quite perfect
I have been tiring a bit of my iPod, do a lot of driving, and have grown to hate commercial radio stations. Commercials make me sick (guess that's why I watch a lot of HBO). Bought one of these things at Best Buy last weekend after making a commitment to try XM vs. Sirius. Right now, I'm glad that I chose XM (more channels). I love the comedy, news, and rock stations; there's plenty more to choose from.So far as the Roady2, the price is great. You can buy these things (just bought 2 more) on ebay for $20 a piece. Each unit comes with a complete car kit. I also bought the home kit which includes remote. In the car, I route the sound into Aux inputs in my car receiver; at home the FM modulator works just fine. Yes the buttons are a little small, and I agree with the reviewer who suggested the display should have more, but for $20 I can't rationalize (for right now) buying anything more expensive.Installation was a breeze. Mounted antennae on roof/side and routed wires down through weatherstrip. There are plenty of mounting options. Velcroed in the convenient stand. Several reviewers have complained about the wire mess. I love two sided velcro and so have used cable ties to wrap up the cords neatly with some excess stowed under front passenger side mat.The sound from the unit in car or home is great. I live out in the country (Chesterfield County, VA) and have had no problems with reception.I'm a pleased customer, Roady2 and XM-wise. No doubt I could buy a little more convenient and interesting unit, but at three times the price (even with rebates). | 1positive

Great camera for the money
When it comes to bang for your buck, Sony cameras in my experience have always been a great option. The Cybershot S500 6MP is easy to carry, easy to use, and has some great added features like thumbnail preview in the display. The flash could be better, though, as it doesn't really do anything for you beyond about 10 feet. As a result, if you're taking pictures in low light (like in a gothic cathedral), you have to use the longer exposure feature for which you pretty much need a tripod or your shots come out blurry. But overall it seems to be a great camera for most snapshot type photos. | 1positive

I am on my 4th unit in 6 months
My title says it all, I originally gave this product 4 stars. After 2 months of ownership, and several problems, I can't recommend it. My battery charging no longer worked. Lowrance has had this product for repair for over 2 weeks, they did not seem concerned about this common problem or offering a replacement. My bracket broke, not from use-just poor glue from the arm to the suction cups. For $[...] I do not expect to return a product so soon, and have to do without it for weeks.Update 75 days of ownership: I will be getting my 3rd unit as my 2nd one locked up. Poor product, stay away from it. The cost of shipping it back now out weighs the cost saving vs. a Garmin. Heed my warning, this is a piece of junk.Also, Amazon will not exchange it after 30 days, so buy from Best Buy or Circuit City, they want happy customers. I will never buy a pricey electronic from Amazon again.Update 2: After the update that came out 1/07, the unit shuts off when it is to navigate. At least Lowrance is paying shipping. But when the 1 yr warranty ends, I will buy a new GPS from a more reliable manufacturer. If you travel for a living, stay away from Lowrance products. | 0negative

It wont't turn on after only 2 weeks
I just received this M515 as an upgrade from M505 and I'm sorry to say that it just stopped working. It won't turn on and when I do erase all my data and get it working again, it stops working after about 30 seconds. I contacted Palm and they are sending a a REFURBISHED model as a replacement..... ...? I am very upset. If it's working, it's great but I'm not sure why something that costs so much stops working for no reason. I think it should work longer than 2 weeks. The color display is definitely better than the M505 but I never, ever had any problems with it. | 0negative

Perfect mount for the Nuvi
I was a bit skeptical about whether this mount would work without sliding around the dash. It somehow molds the 3 small feet to the dashboard and doesn't move, even in turns. It's very simple to install and you simply lift to remove from the dash and place it and your GPS outside the view of passers by. It's much lighter than I expected and can be taken on trips easily by fitting into a carry on or in a suit case. Great, functional product for a reasonable price! | 1positive

It's cheaply made
After a couple months of light use, the clasp that locks the camera in broke off. I took the tripod back to Ritz Camera where they sent it back to Quantaray for repair.

worst tracking ever
I thought this trackball would be awesome, but unfortunately the tracking is the worst I've ever seen. When you spin the ball left and right, the cursor moves up and down. When you spin the ball up and down, the cursor moves left and right. To get the tracking to work, you have to turn the trackball almost horizontal to you, which makes it impossible to use. I'll be returning this immediately. | 0negative

Cheap and easy on the eyes -- but totally unreliable
I've been using one of these for the past year or so, and really need to warn people away from them.It's nice and cheap, and it looks great and has a great user interface through its web UI -- but it has a serious bug. Heavy internet use will cause it to crash -- it won't even respond to pings from the LAN. To fix this requires a manual power cycle.This really bit me badly last weekend, when I was on the road and needed to log into my home machine via ssh -- the MR814 had crashed and the internet connection was down as a result.It's a real shame, as in most other respects, it's a perfectly good product. But the reliability problems are just too serious. | 0negative

Came with a Leak
Guess I knew we were gambling when we bought this, since about half the existing reviews said it arrived with a leak. Remind me to never to go Vegas, right? It arrived, we blew it up with the built-in pump, which worked like a charm. Seemed like it was pretty comfortable... then my son took it on a sleepover, and woke up the next morning flat on the floor. Returned it to Amazon as a defective item for a full refund. Thinking I like another reviewer's idea of just buying a regular twin-size mattress, since we would usually be using it at home anyway, then maybe get one of the pump-less airbeds for the occasional road trip, since those have better reliability stats than the ones with the built-in pump.

fits multiple brands
I lost the rear lens cap to my Canon lens. What I like about the lens cap is that it fits both my Canon and Tamron lenses. The Tamron lens cap will not fit my Canon lens. Well, it fits but will not stay on. | 1positive

Review of Sony XL-2400
Much better price than buying a new TV. Since this is my boy's TV they play their video games on I said take it and go change it (always good for them to fix things). They had it installed in less than 30 minutes. There is a line at the top of the screen and am hoping that goes away. If not will have to take it back off and see if it is an adjustment. Overall - great experience and very easy to install for the price. | 1positive

good AGP card
When I first ordered this card from Amazon, it was defective. It was overheating (even at idle), so I'm sure you can imagine how bad the temperature must have been when my system was under maximum load. I contacted PNY and they told me chances are the card was defective.I immediately contacted Amazon, and without hesitation, they shipped out a replacement within one business day. Kudos to Amazon.Anyways, on to the card. This card is one of the few AGP card which proves AGP isn't completely dead yet. With this card, I have been able to run every single game and application I've thrown at it (including Doom 3, FEAR, FarCry, Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter, etc). I'm pretty much running everything at maximum detail. At first, I was getting some lag, but once you play around with the video card settings, along with your in-game settings, you should be able to run your programs at optimal performance.Installation is really simple and quite straight-forward. This card requires external power directly to the card. Even if you don't have an available power supply cable in your case, the card comes with a Y-cable, so you can play around with your cables to give yourself an available plug.If you are also looking at any ATI cards, let me tell you that the PNY Geforce 7600GS is proven to out-perform the AGP version of the ATI X1600Pro.Overall, if you are still running AGP on your system, and aren't ready for an upgrade to PCI-e, this card is exactly what you're looking for. It is the next highest AGP card in NVidia's series (with the GeForce 7800GS at the top of the line). This card is also Vista-ready, so your computer will be set for the next 2 or 3 years. | 1positive

Canon G3 Review/Response/Recommendation
The camera's a work of art/science -- that's understood. It takes great pictures, operates quickly, and feels solid.To address two previous somewhat negative reviews:(1) Yes, the lens barrel does obstruct part of the lower left corner in the lens viewfinder; however, the LCD viewfinder is rather stunning and I find myself rarely using the lens viewfinder.(2) There are, actually, several differences between the G2 and G3, such as differences in Continuous Shooting, the Optical Lens, the Control Layout, Playback Zoom, Image Processing, and so on. ... | 1positive

Absolutely not!
When I got this it worked fairly well. 1 month later it worked 50% of the time. Two months later I can't even play a DVD from B;lockbuster in it, nevermind recording. It constantly rejects discs (no matter how many brands I try), freezes up, spits them out, etc. Called Samsung and did everything they said. Still the same problems. Checked chat rooms and everyone describes the same problem it just gets worse until it doesn't work at all. It's as if the laser is warping, melting or something. Samsung now wants $107 to fix it and in exchange i get a 30 day warranty! No thanks, in the garbage it goes. Better to buy another one (not a Samsung) for $175 with a full warranty. | 0negative

don't buy this one
This is the worst printer that I have ever used. The cartridges are too expensive and have to be exchanged far too often -- the customer service people recommended that I use the printer every day to keep the nozzle and print heads "fresh". They told me that if I was going on vacation to have someone come in and run off a sheet of print every few days! Now I've come home from the store only to find that in the week it took me to get a new cartridge, that the nozzle is clogged and my colour cartridge is too empty to perform a cleaning. Don't buy this one. I'm switching back to Canon -- better performance, cheaper ink. | 0negative

These speakers are amazing.
Text cannot describe the sound quality of these speakers. At first there was a little lack of bass, and treble was pretty ear-piercing, but after about 2 weeks of breaking in, these sound epic. Bass shakes my vehicle and is audible outside the vehicle even at low volumes, and treble is no longer ear-piercing but very clear. My only complaint is with my Head unit, 17w rms pushes these, but they could be pushed a LOT harder, and I'm too cheap to get an amp. I put these in a 4dr Chevrolet Blazer and the door panels shake hard (design fault, not speaker fault) They fit in the holes almost perfectly (The screw holes don't match up perfectly, but I was able to get the speakers put into the default holes without drilling new ones) I definitely would not use these with a stock head unit unless you have a nice head unit (Ford's shaker 500/1000 perhaps, or Bose system in select vehicles) because a crap stock head unit will not do these speakers justice. | 1positive

Good Price but Questionable Reliability

do yourself a favor and keep shopping around
i bought this at a college bookstore discount less than a year ago. it was working fine for the most part, although every once in a while (after about 4-5 months) it would make a loud, ugly noise that sounded like something was scraping around on the inside. i should have replaced it then, but nothing seemed to have been damaged or lost and i didn't have the money.all of a sudden, today it dies. it turns on but won't show up in finder. files are all gone, some of them irreplaceably. suddenly i have no options for backing up my computer, which i having a few problems of its own. looking for the warranty right now, hopefully they'll just refund me the money instead of sending a new unit.it's not worth the trouble! get something else. i've heard good things about the seagate freeagent products, so i might look at those next. | 0negative

nice little toy
I bought this cd player after carefully going over all the reviews that were posted and I am not disappointed. this is one of the coolest cd players I have ever seen! There are so many features on this player that it verges on the ridiculous. The sound quality is excellent although I would recomend that you use another pair of headphones. The ones that came with this unit [were bad], but this not unusual even for high end cd players nowadays. The volume is just fine and there is 5 eq settings ( 4 preset and one user defined ) The FM tuner workes very well and is NOT just an after thought. The battery life will be very short at first, but after you have broken them in the duration should be as promised (12-15 hrs). The carrying case is a joke ( a simple velvet bag that offers no protection ). There are simply too many features on this player to list them here. It will take a couple of hours to set all of your preferences and FM presets. All of the functions are controled through the remote and the user interface can be a little difficult for some to learn ( you need an IQ of at least 90 or your in trouble). The user manual is of little help. The firmware updates are making this player even more fun to use. The newest one ( version 2.10 ) expands the available EQ settings to 7 and even enables the player to automatically select and excecute the setting to match the genre of music that is on the ID3 tag of the cd ( only mp3 or enchanced cds ). | 1positive

BEWARE, Not made to last...
Boombox was ok right of the box. The problem is the unit is poor quality. My unit has never even moved off my desk since its purchase. Here we are 7 months later and the sound has quit working. Delphi warranties the thing for a year, but its a big hassle. They should just exchange the unit right away. You just can't go turn another radio on when you using satellite. | 0negative

Superb sound, rugged, portable, decent looking too
I've owned the PX100s for two years now, and these are my main open air headphones. Over the years, I've owned Sennheiser HD 580s, Grado SR60s, Dennon C551k in ear monitors, Yuin PK3s, a FIIO portable headphone amp, and a Total Bithead portable amp from [...] + shoddy stock headphonesSOUND:So, I'd like to think I have a reasonable grasp on what decent sound quality is. The Sennheiser PX 100s give a fairly sweet, rich sound with a nice amount of bass. These are easily driven by portable players, and that's a big plus because you can get enough clarity and volume out of them. These cans are excellent for computer use, movie sound effects simply pop out and each detail is distinguishable. The PX100s are not the best headphones for highs, but it's definitely good enough. I don't why some people say the mids are recessed, but they are there. Perhaps it's not as pronounced as the Grados, but vocals come through strong. Overall, sound quality is a very strong point on the PX100s.Design:Style is a matter of individual taste, but the consensus is that these headphones are bland ( but not ugly) at worst, and fairly stylish at best. These are extremely light, the addition of a padding on the headband makes this very comfortable to wear. The earpads are sufficient, my only issue is once they get worn thin, your ears start squeezing against the hard plastic, and replacements will be needed throughout the life of the headphone. This is a minor gripe, earpads are a few dollars, unlike the grado ones.These things can fold away, and the earcups can swivel fully flat, which allows easy storage in a bag, or a large pocket. The carrying case is a hassle.I have used this headphones in the toughest conditions, but I still have an issue with the wiring near the headphone jack connector, some of the insulation came off there and I had to put electrical tape. Fortunately there was no signal problem, and it's held for months. I bought another pair in case it fails.So, if you are considering a headphone for home listening consider that the PX100 is versatile enough for home and portable use. Read below.Sennheiser PX100 vs. Grado SR60I know the Grado SR60s have the same 32 ohm impedance, but on my portables the PX100s were much clearer and more easily driven than the Grados. This is an open air headphone, it won't isolate you from the outside world, but the sound leakage is manageable if you minimize your volume enough. Unfortunately, everybody around you can hear exactly what you are listening to if you wear Grados.If you like pretty laid back sound that's not in your face, solid design, the PX100s are worth your money. | 1positive

It meets the hype . . .
I'm thoroughly impressed with the iPod. I'm using it with an ancient Dell laptop (well, 3 years old is ancient in terms of computers) running Windows 2000 Professional. My iPod works with the laptop flawlessly, and it's great being able to take my entire music collection with me on my hour-long commute each way. It's got a beautiful design, and it works very well. You'll be impressed too. | 1positive

I'm thru with Amazon!
I ordered this i-pod, "IN STOCK," a week ago and they are now telling me it won't arrive in time for Christmas?! 3 weeks to ship something that's IN STOCK! And that's with expedited shipping! (though I'll bet if I had chosen 1 or 2 day shipping... what a racket! They want more shipping $!)PLUS, I can't cancel or change the shipping on the order now! Sorry, but I don't have an extra $150 sitting around to re-buy this gift elsewhere and return the one I ordered here later (and how long would THAT take to get my money back?)How do I explain why Santa didn't bring what my child wanted? (or brings it a week late?!)THOUROUGLY disgusted with Amazon. I used to get "IN STOCK" items within a week if not a few DAYS. | 0negative

Great camera but missing the obvious
I bought this camera after several of my customers said some very good things about this camera (I am a Sony technician but this did not affect my review.) I have to agree it's a great camera...personally I have never owned a good quality camera over 1 MegaPixel. However I did have a Vivitar 3 MegaPixel once but promptly returned it due to bad pictures. This camera takes SUPERB pictures they are very clear and of high quality. I do however have a few gripes about this camera. One it is quite heavy compared to other digital camersa...another thing is Sony needs to include at LEAST a 64 MB memory stick (however I would perfer a 128 MB stick for a good price ratio). Also for such a nice camera rechargable batteries would have been a good thing to have...and also a charger to charge the batteries while they are still in the camera. I did have some NiMH rechargeable batteries from my previous digital camera so that wasn't an issue. I normally use the VGA (email) mode anyway because most of my pictures are just posted to a public site to share with my friends and family. I do however love having the option to take some great 4 MegaPixel shots of items I sell on ebay...previously the images were dull to say the least. I really love this camera it is the best I've ever owned...and 8x10 prints looks GREAT! | 1positive

SECOND time mine has broken down--'Dew Detection Error'...
I am furious.A year and a half ago I got the dew detection error after a winter weekend ski trip and figured that perhaps some snow had gotten into the camera when I was changing tapes.I called Panasonic's customer service and since it was still under warranty, I shipped the camera to someplace in Indiana and after about 5 weeks it was returned and I thought okay. All is hunky dory now. So I had to pay $25 out of pocket to ship this defective DV camera to be repaired. But now it seem to work just fine.Then a few months later, out of curiousity I logged onto Amazon to read the reviews of my camera. That was when I found out that this 'dew detection error' appears to be a common problem with this particular model (and perhaps even other Panasonic models as well.If this is indeed the case, why then hasn't Panasonic issued a recall on this model?Flash forward to ....THIS MORNING just about 3 hours ago...I get the old 'dew detection error' again when I was trying to film my twin boys in our backyard. Family friendly camera? Huh? Dew detection in the middle of a draught? It hasn't rained here in WEEKS!!! The camera is as DRY as a BONE. And the error message won't stop! I could probably aim a hairdryer at this camera for several hours and still get this error message. And there is nothing you can do. It shuts the camera off after 10 seconds and tells you to eject the tape.I am so angry right now and I KNOW that by now my warranty has run out so now i am stuck with--as another customer wrote--a very expensive paperweight. UNBELIEVABLE. I plan to phone Panasonic today and find out if there's any recourse. DO NOT BUY THIS CAMERA PEOPLE. I usually trust the Panasonic brand, but in this case I would advise going with another brand at least for a digital camera.--Bill | 0negative

High freq loss - works great for my TV
This is the second one I bought. Now both my wife and I can hear the TV much better. Even though there is good bass on this headphone, I can hear the voices with my substantial high frequency loss. I the headphones without my hearing aids but they are large enough to go over my ears and my behind-the-ear hearing aids. The earphone cups do not sit on the ear but go completely around the ear.We keep the two base units behind the flat panel TV and love the ease of just setting the headphones in the cradle to charge. Couldn't be easier.I purchased a RCA red/white audio cable with piggy back plugs so we can run audio to both base units from the single source. I am using the red/white wires of an old 3 wire video cable for the second unit.As our TV does not have audio output, so we are running the headphones directly off a LG Smart TV Blu-ray player streaming Netflix and Amazon Prime. The player hooks up to the flat panel with HDMI leaving the single red/white audio outputs on the player for the headsets. | 1positive

THE BEST SPEAKER AMZON HAS TO OFFER
Unlike its little brother, the JBL S310, which is a great speaker, JBL really turned it up a level producing the high-quality, d.j.PROFESSIONAL JBL S312BE STUDIO SERIES. THIS PUTSOUT 250 WATTS, LIKE ITS YOUNGER BROTHER, BUT MADE THE BASS 2"LARGER, ALL BUILT WITHIN A CABINET THAT STAYS STILL AT PEAK LEVELS OF PERFORMANCES! THE HIGHS, MIDRANGE, AND BASS JUST POUND OUT SUPERB QUALITY MUSIC. The price one would need to payfor a comparable speaker, would be hundreds more, and gain verylittle quality over these monsters! Serious about music and its quality? The JBL S312 STUDIO SERIES HAS IT ALL! | 1positive

DO NOT PURCHASE AN IPOD FROM THIS SELLER!!!!!!!!!!
In March 2012 I purchased a classic 80gb ipod from this seller. I received the ipod in the beginning of March 2012,and after using the ipod about 5 times the ipod froze and a big red X appeared on May 15, 20012 (only about 2 months of having the ipod). I immediately went onto apple's website and followed the instructions to fix it. Unfortunately the red X still appeared. So I took my ipod to a ipod repair shop and I was told by them and apple that the hard drive was bad and the harddrive for this ipod is $99.00 plus labor for installing the hard drive. I am very upset and feel ripped off because I paid $119.00 for an ipod from this seller, only had it for 2 months and used it 5 times. I contacted the seller about 13 days ago and seller has not responded. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE A PRODUCT FROM THIS SELLER AGAIN. I have purchased tons of items from amazon's website and this is the 1st bad review haven't had to write. | 0negative
