Question: How is the color?

I'm very happy with my new display. The colors all looked great out of the box, there were no dead or bright pixels, and the unit as a whole is very solid. I've ordered my fair share of displays through Amazon over the years and have always done so confidently as their return policy and procedure is fantastic. I am glad to say I have no reason to return this display.Again, the display is very sturdy and solid. The elevation mechanism is true and the rotation works perfectly, though I will probably be mounting it sooner or later on one of my Ergotrons. Lastly, I love the bezel. I prefer a nice thin bezel and this one looks great. Perfect for a multi-monitor set-up.FTR, I am using it with a late 2012 Mac Mini in a Dual Display configuration.EDIT: Two more things:1) As far as light bleed is concerned, when the black screensaver comes on I do see bleed on the corners as is common with this kind of monitor. During use, however, I have yet to notice anything at all. It only seems to be an issue when the screen is dark which it never is in my workflow. YMMV.2) I have a hard time using some LED-lit monitors including a Viewsonic that my wife recently got. The text is constantly shifting around and the whole thing bothers my eyes. FWIW, I am not having ANY of those problems with this monitor. I'm sure there are reasons why (that others of you are aware of), but I still wanted to put that out there.

Question: How do you get so high?

I ordered a pair of these for my dad and I about 6 months ago. My dad loves his old music and didn't think headphones were a big deal until he got these from me for x-mas. I think I accidentally turned him into a bit of an audiophile lol. As for myself, I love these things.The quality is truly amazing. The bass is VERY clean even at very high levels and not overwhelming by any means. The mids and highs are very very nice as well. You can hear so many things extra going on in your music than before making it a completely new experience even with a mobile device. I even tried these out on my FiiO e10 amp/dac and they are even more amazing!I've listened to other earbuds and found these are the best suited for me at a decent price. I can wear these all day long for days on end and not even notice them being in. By far the most comfortable I have ever had. Another great point is the noise cancelling. There is this fat redneck piece of crap that rides in the back of the bus that never ever shuts up with the most annoying girlish cackle that puts you into an instant rage when wanting to sleep. These buds with a very low volume drowns him out very well surprisingly and I sleep great! Definitely a huge bonus when I am away from home for 17 hours a day.Beats headphones are a bloody joke! It annoys me to no end to see people buying that garbage just because it's signed by an uneducated rapper. :\ I've had a lot of earbuds to know those things don't even compare to the cheapest plastic ear ripping garbage out there. My coworkers I ride the bus with (very long ride every day ugh) are so brainwashed thinking they can somehow justify that massive price they paid. I showed them mine and I could see them lie when they said the Beaters were better. I'll enjoy my music thank you and they can continue to have an orgy of stray cats fighting over living territory in their ears.In summary, I'm far from being an audiophile. Very far. From my experience, headphones were always just that: headphones. Now I've realized they can be so much more! From my experiences, these babies pretty much alleviate any complaints of other headphones I have had in the past. Of course the quality isn't quite at audiophile levels but for the price, they are beyond exceptional. These have got to be the best value out there tailored for my tastes.

Question: How are the keys of the  keyboard?

I was reluctant to try a wireless keyboard, but due to a wire-chomping kitty, decided it was best to go wireless. I'm so glad I did. This keyboard is sleek and stylish. It has a great feel under my fingertips. I was concerned that a wireless keyboard would be "buggy" and not be efficient, but this keyboard is as good as any corded keyboard. It charges easily via USB port and holds a charge for about ten days. The illuminated keys are helpful, if, like me, your eyes aren't as young as they once were. I already had the logitech unifying plug that plugs into my computer for my mouse and touchpad. I turned the keyboard on and the Logitech plug recognized it right away. I highly recommend this keyboard.

Question: How is the speaker?

I got this Lapdesk to use while watching movies in bed with my 13" Macbook Pro. The size is great, and the speakers are much better than I had expected for a $20 usb-powered devise. They are reasonably loud - at least twice as loud as the macbook speakers - and have decent sound quality, if only a little bass heavy. The padding on the underside makes resting the laptop on your lap a bit more comfortable, although I was hoping it to be a little softer. The pad feels like a towel that had been folded a couple times, which is nice, but I have used a similar product that had small foam pellets that more evenly distributed weight over your thighs and was a bit more comfortable over long periods.Although this product does everything it claims to do very well, in retrospect, I would rather have spent a bit more to get a product that included a fan for ventilation. This product has no mechanism or design feature that dissipates heat, which is the only flaw I could find (although admittedly, it is not something the product claims to do.)4 out of 5 for a great product, especially for the price, although there are certainly some features to be desired.

Question: How is the earphone?

Note:  These have an excellent, no-hassle warranty.  Skullcandy will replace them for any reason, whenever - just go to their website, register your product, and fill out the warranty form.  You will receive CREDIT for their website that you can use on whatever you like, as well as free shipping.  The amount of credit will depend upon the current price of your product on THEIR website - so for the standard INK'D buds, you will get a $20 credit.  You do not need any proof of purchase, and it does not matter how much time has passed - just pop the broken buds into a small envelope and you're good.Firstly, I want to mention a few important tidbits that you should know.1.  Pay attention to the L and R (engraved on the stem) on these earbuds, which can be hard to see.  Do not reverse them, as doing so can affect fit and sound quality.  I find putting a piece of colored tape on the right cord makes life easier.2.  Don't assume you know which gel size will fit you best; make sure you try on all 3 gel sizes that come with these, as using the wrong size can dramatically decrease sound quality and comfort.  If your earbuds are uncomfortable or the sound quality does not meet your expectations, then you likely have the wrong size gel installed.  For myself, I automatically went with the smallest size because my ears are small, but those made the earbuds sound like cheap garbage.  It wasn't until I tried the next size up did I get the full quality of sound that these are designed for.  So pay attention to this, since it really matters.3.  These have a straight plug, not an L-shaped plug.  So you will need to be extra careful as a straight-plug design increases the amount of pressure both on the plug, and the headphone jack of your player.  This leads to frayed wires or a loosening of the headphone jack, or both, which ultimately lead to the classic problem of only one side having sound.4.  The cord is long - measures approximately 4 feet, 5 inches.5.  Burn-in works with these.  Slightly.Now, as for the build quality - I'm impressed.  They are not cheaply made earbuds, despite their low price.  The wires are nice and solid, and feel very well made - not flimsy or plastic-y.  The silicone gels (tips that go in your ear) are very soft and pliable, and even have the Skullcandy logo engraved on them.  Nice touch.They feel good, too.  Really good.  Both the material, and the way they fit my annoyingly small ears.  And they don't fall out constantly, although I do sometimes get the sensation that it's getting sucked into my left ear.And yes, these come with 3 different size gels.Sound is great.  These handle bass extremely well for mid-tier earbuds, and highs aren't so shrill and piercing as with other comparable brands.  Some of this really depends on your player, too.  Even between iPods, sound quality does differ.As far as functionality goes, I find I am able to run with these with no problem.  The wires do not get tangled, and you can easily adjust the split in them with an attached slider (that has 'Skullcandy' written on it in the corresponding colour), which I find very convenient.  I do not hear this thumping sound that others claim to hear from wire-movement, so I can't confirm that.The only things I dislike are the straight plug, and the lack of a case.  Otherwise, I am thoroughly impressed with Skullcandy.  The craftsmanship, the quality of sound, and all the little extras that Skullcandy does that really lets you know that they are paying attention, and that they care about their products and end-users.Worth every penny.UPDATE 12/31/2011 - My current pair has seen daily use for over a year now with no issues.

Question: What do you think about grip?

Owned many mice over the years and used even more on the job and school.  This is definitely in the top 5 in my opinion.  It is comfortable to use has good placement of buttons.  Scrolling is smooth, mouse pointer operations are pinpoint.  The rubberized grips are nice and much better than the plastic on cheaper mice.It unifies with other Logitech devices through a unified receiver perfectly.  The one thing to remember is if you are not using the included receiver, you'll need another pointing device until you can pair the MK510 with your existing unified receiver.

Question: How is feature?

I love this camera.  The S95 is my new everyday walking-around camera, replacing my Canon G10 (and very briefly a Nikon P7000).  The S95 produces images of wonderful quality with good noise control (for a 1/1.7 sensor camera) all the way to ISO 2000.  Operation of the menus and controls is very fast with little to no delay in selecting menu options.  The customizable front control ring allows you to quickly change frequently used settings.  Battery life could be better, but I'm getting a little more than the advertised 200 shots per charge, and the battery is small and light enough that it's easy to carry a couple of spares.

Question: What is the function of the card?

I got this card for my new low-end Android phone that I use for software and hardware testing. I just needed a basic SD card, and the 4 GB one was more than sufficient for most of my needs. It was easy to install, and more than adequate for all of my picture and video taking needs. I was able to use the included adapter to connect the card to my MacBook Air. When transferring files from the card to the computer the transfer speed was about 18 MB/s, while when uploading files to the card it was about 5 MB/s. So far the card has been reliable and I have not had any issues with corrupted or lost data.I really can't believe how cheap these cards have become. They are literally becoming too cheap to matter.

Question: How can I get some good potatoes in this hotel that bite you Get a crispy sound?

I purchased this to drive some old JBL speakers in my bedroom. I use Airplay to send audio to an Airport Express, from which I use line-out to connect to a stereo. Previously I had a compact shelf stereo system, but the sound was very muddy and lacked articulation. Weak amp, high distortion.The Lepai Amplifier is a huge improvement over what I had before. I want to set it and forget it -- set the volume and shove it under a dresser -- and this unit is perfect for that. Low idle current is important, and this unit seems to stay very cool. (I'll measure the idle wattage later.)When I first plugged it in, there seemed to be a lot of strange digital-sounding distortion, especially on higher pitches. I took the amplifier apart to see what their circuit layout and component choices were, and then reassembled and reinstalled it. Now it sounds fine. I'm not sure if I jiggled something, or it just needed to break in, or if there was a grounding issue or what.Some downsides to the product are the cheap enclosure (but at least it's metal, not plastic.) Mine came with small threads of glue all over the underside. The knobs are smooth, but plastic feeling. Mine came with a power supply, but it says "Vonage" on it. They probably got a good deal on someone else's old stock. The datasheet for the Tripath amplifier chip in this unit suggests a supply voltage of 13.5V, but the included power supply is 12V 2A. Sometime later I'll hook up a DC bench power supply and see if I can hear a difference.The biggest downside is the insanely bright blue LED that illuminates when the unit is powered on. I have the thing shoved under a dresser, and it lights up the whole floor. I'm going to replace it with a dim red one (soldering required.)For the price, however, this can't be beat. I'd recommend it to a friend or buy another if I needed another sound system.

Question: How is the model?

I bought this based on a recommendation of my local gamer store guy who is a guru for online gaming!  I bought this for my son's new laptop so that he could game.

Question: Do you have a big problem?

I've owned 4 Kindles so far and they all perform very well.  The one major drawback is the power cord connection.  It is not durable at all and you have to be very careful not to move the Kindle while it's plugged in. I had to replace 3 Kindles in the last 2 years and thankfully it was under warranty.  I don't have the the new version HDX Kindle yet so I can't comment on those.

Question: How is the quality of the noise?

I used one of these for a while in my gaming rig. Here's the basic rundown:* Pain-in-the-butt to install. For AMD it requires you to remove parts from your motherboard. It also requires access to the bottom/back of the motherboard, so make sure your case has a CPU access window!* Huge! It takes up a lot of space in your case. This thing is massive!* Loud. It's not a quiet cooling solution. It gets pretty loud. I've heard louder, but not many.* Effective cooling. While it's loud, big, and a pain to install, it does cool the CPU quite effectively and handles overclocking quite well.* Complete. Everything you need is in the box. You shouldn't need to get any extra parts.My opinion is that it's a good cooler with a lot of unfortunate negatives you'd expect for a CPU cooler of this kind. No, it's not as small, quiet, or efficient as liquid-cooling, but it's also less expensive and not as complex as liquid coolers.Advice: If you're on a budget but want to overclock, this is a good place to start. If you can spend a little more, and don't mind learning to hook up a different kind of CPU cooler, then look for liquid cooling solutions, instead.If you're not going to overclock this is more than you'll need, for sure.

Question: How is the headphone?

After returning a more expensive but terrible set of headphones (ULTRASONE iCans-Okta S-Logic Surround Sound Portable Headphones) which were extremely uncomfortable and had a too-short cord, I bought the Sennheiser HD 202 which are perfect for my purpose.I bought these very recently to use with a boombox to listen (while sitting or lying down)to Hemi-Sync and other binaural beat CDs and tapes which produce alpha, theta, and delta states for meditation and exploration. My ears are very sensitve to any pressure on them, so I love that these Sennheisers have very soft, thick padding and that the ear phones wrap AROUND the ears - not against the ears. They have a long cord of about 10', so I can sit comfortably without feeling tugged and chained to the boombox. The sound is great for the price.Years ago I had an expensive set of Sennheisers to use with my stereo set, and loved them, but I was pleasantly surprised that these inexpensive ones are so nice for $20.17 (when I purchased them; prices fluctuate at Amazon).

Question: How is the pan?

Great camera, works awesome with Vera from Mi Casa Verde and with IP camera viewers on my Google TV and Android phone. Set it up on a Mac with no problems, easy to configure with a basic understanding of networks. Configured wirelessly with no problems and transmits great to my Cisco E2500 router. Also installed SecuritySpy for Mac which is great and allows recording when there is motion on the camera (or all the time) to my Mac's HD. Night vision is pretty good, especially inside. Pan and tilt work great.

Question: How is the image quality like?

UPDATE: After a bit of research, I found that if you change the quality from high def to standard before casting a browser video from you computer - the video on the TV is pretty smooth and the audio is in sync.Overall, I am happy with the quality and functionality of this feature after all.I already have a Roku and Tivo which can stream, so Chromecast doesn't offer much more functionality.What you do get from Chromecast is the ability to use a phone/tablet as the remote. As far as I see - this has to be why you want it.If you buy a chromecast and wish it came with a remote, then you should just buy a Roku or blu-ray player with wifi apps.The ability to navigate on a tablet and queue up shows on the TV is the main draw here.If you think about it - when you imagine a millionaire watching TV, the remote you picture is probably similar to a large smartphone or tablet, right? So Chromecast allows you to use your expensive smartphone to enhance the TV navigation experience.For that, I think the price is just right.Netflix and youtube worked well. I tried casting video from my computer chrome browser and it did not work well.Choppy, and it really had the computer working hard to stream the video.If they figure out how to get the Chromecast to stream directly from a URL rather than streaming through your computer - they would have a real valuable feature. That is why I got it, but really for $35 - its cool enough to keep.

Question: Do you know film a video?

Okay we all know this isn't a replacement for a full blown camcorder and certainly not a camera, BUT it is a great product. I personally bought it for it's waterproof capabilities. It takes a DECENT still shot, more than good enough for social networks or emails. More importantly though, the video that it shoots is outstanding. Better than most I've had experience with taken by cameras, plus it's waterproof. I have mentioned that a couple of times now because I feel that is the key aspect with this product.This is a fun camera and small enough to throw in a pocket. Getting to the details on video I have to say that outdoors is where it shines. Indoor shots with normal lighting are also good but low light are viewable but somewhat grainy. Underwater video is equally good. You MUST turn that mode on. Each time the camera is turned off it resets and must be turned on again. It just compensates for the lighting underwater. I've forgotten to turn it on and the video looks good? The digital zoom is remarkably good. Usually digital zoom tends to be less than ideal but this camcorder handles it very well! Much better than expected. I don't hesitate to use it at all, even on full zoom it's good. The manual does not say what the zoom is nor does the camera. People here in the reviews have estimated and I'd GUESS 4-5x.As for the video modes 720p 30fps isn't bad. The picture is sharp and has great color. There can be some shakey almost slightly strobe light effect if you move the camera too fast. The built in image stabilization does help BUT you must turn it on. 720p 60fps is the bomb! I think this is the sweet spot and use this mode most of the time. 1080p 30fps is wonderful though you must again be careful with the camera movement. The image is just plain crisp!! Don't get me wrong this mode is great but it takes a lot of memory and isn't really practical for emailing or uploading to social networks. Looks beautiful on my 58 in. Samsung plasma.Stills as I said are good and a couple outdoor shots I took rival my better camera. Parties, walks on the beach, hanging with friends are good venues for the stills. Important parties, weddings, those moments that really mean something, no, use a dedicated real camera.Battery life is pretty decent. I shoot 30 sec. to 1 min. most of the time then power off and it has lasted through 2 serious parties 40-50 vids at each party with time to spare. Not sure if you just turned it on and let it go for like 5-10 min. vids? My guess is that it wouldn't last as long. That's the WORST way to take vids anyway!! Nothing is worse than a 5 minute or longer video to watch!! OMG, please don't ever force a vid of that length on a friend. Because you can't say anything and have to sit through the whole horrid thing. Show the same vid in 1 min or less clips and it's acceptable. Just my opinion.This has been a great purchase for me. As said the waterproof capability is what sold me. If you don't want to lug the camcorder and camera along this just pops in the pocket. It's inexpensive and FUN, buy it you won't regret itP.S. I think it's as nice or nicer than the Flip. Comparing it to my friends Flip, the vids are the same but this is WATERPROOF!

Question: How good is photo quality?

This camera is fantastic. I own the Panasonic GF-1, GX-1, LX7 and will continue to use them, however the S95 has proven over and over to be a fantastic pocket sized competitor, even outshining it's 'upgrade' S100 as THE go to camera. Even what would be considered generations past its release date, the S95 continues to show that Canon has made a solid impact on the point and shoot division by showing that it's not only DSLR's that can take stunning photos.I have purchased this camera for my girlfriend, both my sisters own the S95, and we are going to purchase yet another S95 for my mom, who loves taking photos but has an old and again Cybershot.The camera takes extremely sharp photos, works well in low-lighting conditions (with a steady hand of course), has brilliant color reproduction and some of the best video I've seen from a point and shoot. Sometimes it takes better photos than my own cameras, despite the huge price difference. For anyone looking for a compact, high quality camera, get this. New, used, whatever, if you find a bargain deal you'll have found an amazing wingman to save your memories.

Question: How did you like the set?

Yes, I have 6 set of headphones. Some are just better for special purposes. This Klipsch comes with me to the gym, the beach, and on hikes. It is very comfortable and stays put. Sound is great, although it lacks the bass from the large on ear sets. The clarity is great, never muddles anything, even when it is oversteered. My initial concerns with the thin wires has proven unfounded, as this set has endured very rough treatment without showing any signs of wear or degrading of sound. If I ever lose it; I would buy it again in a heartbeat.

Question: How is design?

I was interested in using this router to replace a DLink-655, which has been having intermittent connection failures requiring a reboot. I have a fairly large area that i want to cover. Note that unlike a typical router user, I specifically wanted to use this as an access point, thus my use case and experience are a bit different than typical.Overall, I was very pleased with this router.Because I couldn't figure out from the documentation how to set it up as an access point, i contacted tech support. I expected a response within a day or so. They responded in less than half a day with detailed instructions.Setup an install was very fast and easy. Basically, needed the router to the LAN and replace the internet connection on a computer, then access it via IP. This was all very simple to do. After that, needed to configure the two wireless band configurations and a few other settings. The overall menu system on the router is well laid out, with good explanations and has a good depth of controllable features. Responsiveness is quite fast. For the configuration i was doing i needed to do a software reboot, and that kept the connection nicely throughout.Once i setup the router, connections were strong and solid. I've used both bands without issues. Signal seems good and stable. I'm also running a number of direct lines from the router as well as the wireless connections. All is good.

Question: How is the keyboard?

Edit 4/21/14. I finally caved and purchased a Fire HDX to use with this keyboard. Absolutely love it and the case. The case has openings for the on/off and volume buttons, as well as the camera lens. The Fire stays nicely propped on the pillow on my lap and the keyboard is very easy to use, with the added plus of less hands on the screen itself = less build up needing to be wiped off. Especially after buttered popcorn...That was something that I feared, having last year's model - nothing being marketed now fits my Fire. I was sure I studied the product page carefully prior to selecting it as a vine option, and I didn't see anywhere that said *Kindle HDs will not fit this case* (I do so appreciate those manufacturers who do that), so I decided to give this a go.OK, so bummer my Fire is too big to fit in the nifty little holder (pouts). But...the keyboard still works great, I just use it as a separate piece in my lap with the Fire on the other side. The keys are very easy to strike, as opposed to how hard I have to bang on the keys on the Acer laptop to make sure I don't miss letters and have to backtrack. That said, this doesn't quite replace the typing experience from a *real* keyboard and sitting at the desktop - but then I'm from the old school of proper typing on a proper typewriter (ya'll remember IBM Selectrics?). As nice as this keyboard is, you're just not going to get the speed you're used to and using the ASDF JKL; they used to teach in school - and definitely not trying to work the keyboard on your lap whilst trying to type with both hands like I was taught. Very handy for quick comments on FB or Goodreads, etc., I like it a lot more than the Fire virtual keyboard.As for setup and the too-brief instructions, I charged the keyboard but then felt completely lost on item #2 to turn on Bluetooth. Silly me, I didn't realize that was something I had to turn on on the Fire and not a switch on the keyboard that I couldn't find. Thank goodness for Google, which led me to a very helpful video that told me where to go to get that turned on.
