Lap Desk - large book holder, cookbook stand


I cannot live without this. I looked and measured my books and deliberated and was ecstatic that I made the right choice in book stands. I use this specifically for my very very large textbooks which are difficult to hold, read and make notes all at the same time. With this I was able to implement my system of reading an upright book and typing my notes on the computer at the same time. This little tool makes studying efficiently possible. It is good quality, sturdy and very useful. The page holders are expandable and sturdy as well. Do yourself a favor and purchase one. It will make your study life easier. INP-103 Book Stand (Bookstand / Bookstands / Holder / Cookbook / Music)

I have been using this for school books and project sheets. It is very helpful. I do not have to bend over my notes and books any longer. My neck is thankful, as are my eyes. If I have the fan on or the window open the notes do not fly off the desk, with the page holder helping to hold page.

I'm a reader. No, I really mean it, I'm a reader. I spend at least four hours at my desk each day, reading and taking notes. Seems the older I get the more I realize how much I still have to learn. Well, the eyesight was getting to me reading a book 'flat'. I was propping my books up, but that got cumbersome. I ordered this product and it has really saved strain on my eyes. It doesn't take up much room, holds the book at the PERFECT angle, and it even has two little 'flippers' (for lack of a better word) on the bottom to hold the pages open, if I want them open. I so like this product, I'm ordering a second book holder, just in case something should go wrong with this one. Although my ordering a second one is probably unnecessary because this product is made extremely well. I highly recommend this item.

This is a nice bookstand. The quality is good, and the delivery speed is good. The tracking system is very accurate.

One thing I would suggest is to include an instruction in the package, so buyers do not need to spend time figuring out how to "bend" the shelf to the right angle.

Okay, you call it a Book Stand but I call it, and use it as, a Lap Desk. I do most, if not all, of my book reading in my "easy chair" (hey!, I'm 71 and that authorizes me to be comfortable). This is the only thing I have found that will comfortably hold whatever book I am reading (including large 2" loose leaf note books) at the correct angle. I love this product, wouldn't ever want to be without it and it is well worth the purchase price.

I ordered it because I plan to study for my accounting exam. I expected I would spend much on reading and studying. I think I make the right decision. I feel great when I use the book stand to hold my book. I can adjust it at multiple angles. I didn't feel back pain and neck pain after reading for 2-3 hours. Although the color came darker than I expected, I would recommend the book stand to everyone. It's sturdy and can hold heavy books. However, I wish the shipping charge is lower.

Excellent product! This book stand exceeds my expectations. This is an ideal bookstand for anyone doing serious study requiring the use of multiple volumes simultaneously. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a good sturdy bookstand.

I was a little hesitant at first after reading one of the reviews saying that it was worthless after one year. But I don't regret my purchase at all! This is a great book stand. The product description never once states that it is real wood and you can barely tell the difference. You can tell it's strong and made for even the bulkiest of books. This book stand is now one of my daily essentials. - Large Book Holder - Cookbook Stand - Book Holder - Bookstand'

Kindle Lighted Leather Cover - book light, kindle accessory


I've noticed that like myself customers have been concerned primarily with two things regarding the new lighted case from amazon. These are: 1)The weight and 2) The uneven lighting. My review will briefly discuss these two things.



1)The Weight - The lighted leather case is a nice weight, sturdy and comfortable to hold. In ounces it is about the weight of the kindle itself however don't let that concern you. With the case on it feels like a medium sized paperback, however it is far much more comfortable to hold. It's easy to hold the case open like a book (nice for couch and table type reading) or to fold the front back and close it with the bungee so that the bungee doesn't hang around (this is good for bedtime reading).Closing the front back with bungee keeps the case folded in position and you don't have to worry about it bothering you. BTW THIS CASE FOLDS BACK 100% - Very comfortable. In sum very comfortable to read with the case and very sturdy.



2) The uneven lighting - Amazon's pictures don't do this case justice. The light hits the ENTIRE screen. Yes if you look closely it's brighter in the top right corner then in the bottom left but Amazon's pics make it look the top is lighted while the bottom is dark. There is good light all over the screen. Trust me I'm fussy about these things - the lighting will not bother you, your entire screen will be lighted and it is extremely pleasant to read in the dark.



*Final Thoughts - Great case, good quality, works well, kindle feels very secure and protected (I would feel comfortable slipping this case into my backpack or suitcase and I think it would sustain some mild impact). Lastly hinges are a non-issue, casing of the kindle will not get damaged with normal or even slightly aggressive use. You could damage the kindle by trying to pull the back of the case but you'd have to really force it to cause any sort of damage to your kindle. The hinges work fine and should not be a concern to any case user.



Update 1st December 2010:



Have now been using the case for 3 months. Leather still looks impeccable. Some people expressed concern that the bungee cord might loosen with use. I have not experienced any loosening so far. Quality of the product has proven outstanding. I've occasionally spilled or messed the cover, just a wipe with a damp cloth has cleaned it up, and the case looks like new. Have to admit I enjoy the feel of the case in my hand, there's just something great about taking your kindle to a coffee shop in this case, it just looks and feels so classy. Also with regard to the hinges: I have had no scratches on my kindle or any other issues, so I remain convinced that the hinges are a non issue. Kindle Lighted Leather Cover, Black (Fits 6" Display, Latest Generation Kindle)

I was hesitant to buy this cover mostly due to the pictures in its listing, which seem to show a light that doesn't even extend to the opposite corner. The fact that I have not been impressed with the Amazon's Kindle covers in the past didn't help. I went ahead and purchased it because the cover I wanted isn't available yet and I don't like to take my Kindle out and about without a cover. Now I am glad that I went ahead and bought it.



PROS:



1. The light is much better than I thought it would be. Using it in a darkened room I found that the light did the job very well. In a pitch black room, it performs even better. While the screen corner opposite the light is a bit dimmer than other areas, there is no problem reading the page at all.



2. The light gets its power from the Kindle itself, through the gold-plated hinges which attach it to the cover, so batteries are a thing of the past. When your Kindle goes to sleep, the light will go out as well. It will also turn off when you slide it back into the case.



3. The cover is slim, well-fitted and very easy to attach and detach using the hinges. The inside has good padding. The leather outer surface has a nice pebbled texture with the exception of a smooth area along the edge of the front. While stiff enough to protect the reader, the cover is slight flexible and the front easily folds behind when reading so you can hold your Kindle with one hand if you like.



4. A great plus is that the cover has an elastic cord that fits into a groove on the front of it. This holds your cover closed (unlike the original Kindle 2 cover that would flop open in your purse & let things slide into it) and easily distinguishes the front from the back--important as many owners of the Kindle 2 cover accidentally opened it from the back, which could cause cracking along the Kindle's spine.





CONS:



I haven't found any, really. The light Is a bit hard (stiff) to pull out of the cover, but then you wouldn't want it to be flopping out when you don't want to use it so that is more of a Pro than a Con.



The one concern I do have is about pulling the light in and out--I wonder if whatever wiring or conductor that is used to get the power from the hinges to the light will eventually break. But that is something to find out down the road. Right now, the more I use this cover, the more I like it. - Book Light - Kindle Lighted Cover - Kindle Accessory - Kindle 3 Covers'

Best Yoga Mat On The Market


Yoga mats come in three basic thicknesses. At 1/4" this one tops even the thickest sticky mats. Roughly the thickness of two average mats together, this one will help cushion all those boney parts and not bunch up the way two mats together always seem to do. It's not only thicker, it's denser to boot. It's cushion without mushiness. However, this cushion comes at the price of being quite heavy -- more heavy than four average mats combined! Probably not the best choice for a mat you tote around unless you want to get in some extra strength training. This one is the kind you buy, find a place for, and leave it there. Also note that the roll this yoga mat makes is huge, something to consider if between practice storage space is an issue. The "thick" mats at 3/16" will still provide extra cushion without the hassle but if you've tried them and they're still not enough, this might be the way to go. Mats that are about one third as thick as this one (1/16") are good for travel or placing under a thicker mat to provide more traction. The average mats are about 1/8." This mat is also two inches wider than the average mat, 24" is the standard width, and three inches longer than average -- 68" is the standard length.



There are two sides to this and nearly all yoga mats. Look carefully at the 'bumps' on each side of the mat. On most mats, the larger bumps are designed to face upwards to cushion your hands, feet, and knees during poses while keeping your body from dangerously slipping out of alignment. The smaller bumps are designed to face downwards to grip the floor and keep the yoga mat from sliding. With this mat it's slightly different. Manduka's mats have a unique dotted bottom surface that holds the mat in place during your practice. It looks unlike any other mat you've ever seen. This mat also has a brand label on one end. Just like on most but not all mats with a label, it is located on the 'up' side.



You will need to wash this mat once before using it the first time to remove the coating. Instructions for this are included with the mat. This yoga mat will increase in stickiness with use. (So do most mats.) They start out mildly sticky and increase in stickiness the more they are used. If you find yours decreasing in stickiness each time you pull it out, this is the typical sign that a light coating of dust or too much body sweat has accumulated on your mat and it needs a light hand washing with very diluted soap and water. After washing, dry your mat unrolled, inside, and away from sunlight. (Hanging over the shower bar works nicely.)



When you first unroll your mat you will find one end to be a bit curled. Simply alternate the direction you roll your mat (top outside once, then bottom outside next) or the end you start from (curled end once, flat end next time) and you'll find it straightening out more or less over time.



I recommend buying your own yoga mat even if your yoga studio or gym provides them for you. I've worked in many studios and gyms over the years. Sometimes management has mats cleaned often, sometimes not. If you bring your own mat you always know where it's been. :o) Plus, owning your own mat may encourage you to begin valuable practice at home.



For my students who have trouble with their knees in some of the poses requiring the body weight to rest on a knee, I recommend temporarily folding over one end of the mat to get double cushion under the knee while still leaving one layer under the rest of the body. This saves you having to haul more than one mat out each time you practice which can be discouraging especially to the beginner. Manduka BlackMatPRO 71-Inch Yoga and Pilates Mat

First off, I've been practicing ashtanga/power yoga for about a year and a half now. I'm not an expert, but I know what works for me. My hands and feet sweat a lot during class. Most mats I've tried turn into a slip-and-slide after the first 5 minutes. From day one I've had to use a towel under my hands at the front of the mat to keep from collapsing in down dog. I've tried them all, your standard "sticky" mat, a mysore rug, etc. The sticky mat gripped until I got sweaty then it was worthless. The mysore rug needed to be so wet to grip that I ended up sitting on wet spots (not fun). The Black Mat is the only one that works. It grips perfectly and I don't even need the towel under my hands. I also love that it is so thick and dense. It doesn't "follow" me when I jump through, provides plenty of padding for my knees/arms, and is very stable for balancing poses. I even like that it's heavy...it helps tone my arms!

I bought the black mat due to great Amazon Customer reviews. Bottom line with this mat: If you are going to use the mat to constantly go to the yoga studio, buy the Purple Travel Mat from Manduka. If you are keeping this Black mat at home and not needing to travel with it, its an excellent mat. The Purple Travel mat is great for traveling, light weight enough and provided adequate yet firm padding for joints/knees. The Black Mat which I returned due to its weight and bulkiness, is better as a stationery, at home mat. Its depends on where you pratice your yoga. Both Manduka mats a wonderful products.

I have been practicing yoga for nearly 3 years. I feel that the Black Mat is the best investment I have made. Its comforatable for all the floor work, and stable for all the standing and inversions asansa.Its heavy, but no no one is perfect.

I have tight hamstrings. Down-dog is very hard for me, and my version of the asana is rather wide, creating thrust at hands and feet. I bought this mat hoping to get better grip, especially when sweating, than is possible on lighter mats. The extra weight is acceptable, and even the ridiculously high price I can handle in exchange for durability and a truly non-slip surface. Oh well. As delivered, the surface is actually the slickest of any of my four yoga mats. I have used the mat twice, and then went looking for the packaging to return it. But one of my teachers suggested that I scrub it with a stiff brush, hot water, and a little dishwashing detergent. This really helped, and now I really like this mat. I wonder why it doesn't come iwth instructions for this necessary prep-work? Or, better yet, why not ship it ready to use? After all, for $80, one expects a rectangle of rubber that is virtually perfect. Anyway, the prep-work isn't too onerous, just annoying.'

Highly Recommended - snow throwers, snow thrower


So I ordered this model even though it had no reviews at the time. I was looking at the comparable Toro and Snowjoe models, but couldn't bring myself to buy either since there were so many negative reviews in addition to the positive ones.



I went with the Greenworks for two reasons:

1) The 4-year Warranty

2) The 20" width



Well, let me say that so far I feel I absolutely made the right choice.

The unit looks great, and seems to be built with very high quality parts.

How it was packaged was also excellent. There's no way this baby's going to get damaged in delivery like I heard about with the competitors.

The only negative was that Greenworks actually went overboard with their packing... They actually put the unit together by screwing directly through the plastic covers that go on the parts so I couldn't get all the plastic off the pieces without taking some pieces apart.

I see this as no big deal as again it is their effort to make sure everything is protected for delivery but just letting everyone know about it.



Once built (very easy to do I might add), the machine is very easy to maneuver since it has quite large rubber wheels. I know there have been negative reviews about the Toro due to the cheap tiny wheels. No issue here!

The handle is adjustable to 3 levels (I'm 6'2") and I was able to make it comfortable for my height.



Well I had to wait a week until the snow came, but come it sure did! I live in northeast Ohio, so the last few days have been a downpouring of the white stuff.

I had purchased 2 50-foot outdoor cords rated at 13 amp (this unit is 12 so we're fine).

I also purchased some Snow Jet non-stick coating spray and used it per the directions prior to the first use. I had read about it as a way to avoid the snow clogging in the thrower or chute while working.

The first time I used this thrower, I noticed how easily it moved the snow. The chute is very easy to adjust in direction, and it easily shoots at leat 6-10 feet so you're able to make sure you don't shoot snow over an area you've already worked on.

Once I got used to it, I was able to do the whole driveway and walk in 15 minutes the second time. Piece of cake!

The snow was soft the first time but a mixture of wet snow and ice the second time. This made no difference it worked just as well. It also worked perfectly on the slush at the bottom of the driveway where the street plows make that big mess all the time.



The blades are steel covered with rubber, and it really hugs the ground and pulls the snow off.

I'm not going to say it will get you to bare ground in all spots, but it sure tries and it's more than good enough to get your vehicles in and out which is the main purpose right?

I mean if you want to get the bottom layer of ice completely off you'll need rock salt and a shovel anyway.

This thing did get some of the ice off, but I didn't want to push too hard to get it to do that and possibly damage the blades.



Bottom line is that I got this for $200 on Amazon and I already feel it's my top purchase of the year. I had a Snowjoe 12" snowbroom last year and it broke, then I had to do the old shovel routine. It would take me at least 2 hours to do my driveway and walk last year.

Now, with twice having at least 6 inches of snow on the driveway, I was done in 15 minutes and back in the warm house.

As long as the wind was in my favor, I didn't get too much snow on me and certainly saved my back.



You absolutely cannot go wrong with this one. I only hope its longevity matches its performance so far, but with a 4-year warranty, I can afford to take that chance.



It didn't hurt that Amazon gave me free shipping and it showed up the NEXT DAY!

I did not pay for overnight and I got this the next day after I ordered it. I still don't know how that was possible but I'm not complaining! Greenworks 26032 20-Inch 12 Amp Electric Snow Thrower

We ordered this on a Saturday and it arrived the following Wednesday. Two days later we are in the midst of a 20inch snowfall/blizzard. This machine works like a charm. We chose it for the 4 year warranty. We see now that it's a very capable machine and perfect for an old-fashioned Minnesota blizzard. It took less than 5 minutes to assemble and can be used even by someone with severe back and neck limitations. Highly recommended!!

I will start by saying I am a female and the primary user of this snow blower. I had an OLD Toro that I always fought with to start because either my arm isn't long enough or I just don't have the upper body strength to start the thing. I wanted something easy for me to start and that would help me through a Cleveland (Ohio) winter. After looking at several models - the price, size of the deck and warranty sold me on this machine.



When the machine arrived, I was able to carry it into my house to assemble it (so the machine is pretty light). I think it took me longer to unpack the machine than it did to put it together. After assembling, I was able to lift the machine back up and move it to it's spot in the garage.



When we got our first snow, I thought to put this machine into action. It took some getting used to on not to trip/unplug the cord, but I think I finally got that part down (I knew it had a cord when I ordered it, so I'm not rating this snow thrower any less because my clumsy behavior). As promised, it chewed through the snow easily! It's about as loud as a shop vac, so I don't feel TOO terrible using it at 6:00am because I doubt it'll wake my neighbors. It's easy to push and maneuver. I am overall very happy with the machine!!

I got this before the snow,so I couldn't review it.Now that we did get a few inches of snow,I can say it works very well.Throws the snow far,its more quiet then my vacuum cleaner,was packed great,all bubble wrapped,no way any thing could get scratched.Not much to put it together.I think this will be MUCH better then the shovel,and plus the gas ones are 400 to 600 just for a decent one,there is no messing with fuel,or pull starting.I'm happy!!

Edit: the shoot that directs the snow,will freeze up if its real cold!! - Snow Thrower - Electric Snow Thrower - Snow Blower - Snow Throwers'

Kickass Games - ezio, video games


Assassin's Creed Brotherhood is a fantastic game in every aspect and has brought a great amount of enjoyment. The creators put forth a great deal of work and made many improvements from previous installments. The game feels like an entirely different game even though it continues the story of Ezio. I am extremely pleased so far.



The Story

-------------------

As always, the Assassin's Creed story is exceptional. You continue the story of the battle between the Assassins and the Templars. You dive further into Ezio's life and explore the city of Rome. The story is as great as ever and the leading a group of assassins is a truly great feeling. The missions are well tied to the story. I cannot say too much about the story without spoiling it; however you will not be disappointed.



The Gameplay

-------------------

The gameplay is fantastic! It is one of the major improvements the creators made to the game. The combat system has been greatly improved to be more aggressive. No more sitting there, waiting for an opponent to make a move. Leading a group of assassins is great in combat. You can call them to aid you and watch as they assassinate, shoot, and slice your enemies along with you. Assassin's Creed Brotherhood also comes with new weapons, machines, and equipment. Now you can soar down towers using parachutes and quickly air assassinate people. Also you can now truly fight on horseback! It provides a whole new element to the game. The free climbing is as great as ever. The gameplay has been improved in too many ways to cover them all.



The Online Experience

-----------------------

Online is brilliant. It's a whole new experience that has never truly been seen before. There are several different game modes and maps to play on. Also there are over 10 characters to play as, along with unique weapons and abilities, such as the ability to sprint away, or morph into a different character. An online assassin game is truly amazing. The feeling of sweeping from the roof to an unsuspecting player is great. The online is a HUGE success and I love every minute of it. It adds a huge deal of replay to the game.



The Replay Amount

-----------------------

The game offers a great deal of replay in contrast to the past games. In Brotherhood, there is a huge amount of challenges to play through. Also, similar to previous editions, you can search for hidden items in the game. There is much more to do when you get bored of following the campaign. This isn't even including the online! The online mode makes the game have a huge amount of replay time. Brotherhood is much longer than other installments of the games due to challenges and online mode!



Conclusion

--------------

This game is truly outstanding. I love everything about it. The story, gameplay, and online make this game exceed my expectations. This game is superior to the other two Assassin's Creeds. If you even remotely enjoyed the previous Assassin's Creeds, than get Brotherhood. You will love every second of it! Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood

When I heard Brotherhood was coming out so close to AC2, at first I was over trilled and totally hyped up to get my hands on it... but as many have pointed out, a sequel in less than year is worrisome when it comes to quality.

Well, the doubts were completely answered with an amazing, full, and engaging game.



Story wise: It is finally being made a LOT more clear that Desmond is the face of Assassin's Creed. He is getting a lot more playtime and the first section you play with him as is nostalgically similar to the Assassin's Tombs in AC2 (only a lot easier and more latches and lifts.)

The Shrines of Romulus will be the new "assassin tombs" giving a armor that will give you full synchro with Ezio.

On Ezio's side you will see the return of "flags" that were in AC1 and the "feathers" in AC2, and getting all of them unlocks their own rewards.

In conclusion, as to not give any spoilers, the story is what you would expect from this franchise.... awesome. Graphics looks a lot better than what I remember (having played the ps3 version of AC@.)



Gameplay:

Combat-

Assassin's Creed is definitely evolving and I am liking it's progress. AC1 was basically spam the attack button and block... cool at first, right?

AC2 expanded on this with counter kill moves, but then we would be stuck waiting for the A.I to attack us for easy kills.

Brotherhood ADDS all of that and combines it with a stronger and smarter A.I, making the enemies attack you back to back (instead of in turns), and offensive gameplay is now a lot stronger than it was before. So the battles are quick and gory with even larger battles going on compared to previous ACs.



Additions to previous features-

>New Weapons

>New Armors (sadly the "armor" gotten for pre-ordering at Amazon is an outfit)

>Trade Items furthering the element of a role playing game

>Run your own city (in this case Rome) is back on a larger scale

> and of course, the ability to make your Brotherhood of assassins (it's the name of the game!)



Multiplayer-

Assassin's Creed Brotherhood is the first game in series with a multiplayer mode!! We asked for it, and they answered.

The animi you see at the beginning of AC2 is the back story of the multiplayer section of the game. Abstergo templars use the animi to gain the skills of assassins with the bleeding effect, and that is us.

Each player is assigned a target (some other player), now the player has to assassinate its target without losing their cover, or they will be killed by the person who was assigned to assassinate THEM!

I haven't gotten into the story mode that much yet, but apparently the multiplayer characters we will play as are in the main story, so everything is tied in nicely, right?!



Uplay points- Assassin's Creed 2 was the first to have these and of course, every new Ubisoft game has them. Brotherhood is no exception to this. If you do not know what this entails, it is basically ubisoft's version of trophies or achievements. They unlock exclusive themes and ingame media (extra bullets skins, multiplayer character, etc). Pretty nice of them.

If you have already beaten AC2 as I have you get 20 uplay points at the start of the game.



In Closing:

As a fan of Assassin's Creed, I can't help but just praise it with a perfect score. If you have seen trailers, demos, gameplay videos... just take a dive and give it a try, it at least deserves a trial run. You wont regret it. - Playstation 3 - Ps3 Games - Ezio - Video Games'

Waterproof Headphones - headphones, swimming


I bought this: Lewis N. Clark WaterSeals standard Waterproof MP3 or IPOD pouch. I've read reviews for all of the waterproof headphones available on Amazon, and I was unsatisfied by what I could obviously see were design flaws in other headphones, even in the $50 and up range. I took a chance on these, and I'm glad I did. I'll break it down by waterproofing, comfort, and sound.



The headphones come with four sets of in-ear cups. Three of those are small, medium, and large triple-sealed cups obviously for in water use. There is also a pair of regular in-ear cups for listening outside water. I used the small cups, which still seemed a little big, but they made an excellent seal. Doing things I normally did in water that might dislodge them, I was surprised to find that they stayed put and stayed sealed. Even moving my jaw, or lightly pulling on the cords, I didn't unseal them. The over-ear bendable plastic helped significantly - the phones were not pulled by drag or anything else away from my ear. I'm sure if I were to tug on them, I would dislodge them, but I try to avoid this with any waterproof headphone because doing so often compromises their waterproofing, and they can get permanently damaged in the water.



Another difference between these and the standard triple-seal phones is comfort. You can't really call anything comfortable that's lodged in your ear canal, but these come close to comfort. The plastic is soft and near-malleable, and the edges are thin, instead of thick and blunt. There are slightly noticeable mold lines (where the seam of the two molds used to create the cup come together), but these did nothing to irritate my ears. By comparison, the design of the Lewis & Clark earphones is downright sadistic. There is only one size of ear cup, and the plastic is harder and excruciatingly painful in the ear.



The sound, I was happy to find, is quite excellent. Because of the seal, I couldn't really find a perfect balance of highs and lows in my ear (I suspect it has something to do with the air pressure), but it's a price I'm very willing to pay for the great seal. I set my equalizer on my mp3 player, and everything sounded great.



Overall, I'm very satisfied with these earphones. The value for the price is amazing. Don't waste your money on those $50 and up earphones; these ones do fine. The only thing is, they're not perfectly comfortable. I can't give five stars for something that still hurts my ear to use, as I have a pair of non-waterproof Panasonic earphones that are like wearing nothing on my ears. Comfort is a big deal to me, and these are slightly painful to wear. But I suspect that the cups are shaped the way they are in order to make a seal, which they do very well.



A few words of caution: I have not taken these to any depths. I usually swim on the surface of the water, and my last pair of headphones did not respond well to being taken even three feet underwater. Because I am so satisfied with these, I didn't risk going lower than the surface. If you're a diver, or an underwater swimmer, I don't suggest listening to music underwater with any sort of earphones.



Secondly, you'll want to rinse anything you use in chlorinated or seawater thoroughly with distilled water after every use, to prolong their lifespan. Make sure they are unplugged, and make sure they are fully dry before their next use. Pyle PWPE10W Marine Sport Waterproof In-Ear Earbud Stereo Headphones for iPod/iPhone/MP3 Player (White)

I'd been looking for headphones to use while lap swimming as the ones i were using, which worked great for years, were finally coming apart and I have no idea who made them. I bought these after first trying the much more expensive RMKF headphones, which got better reviews on Amazon. RMKF Black waterproof in-ear hi-fi earphone with Black head for ipod mini nano video classic touch MP3 player iphone 3G new + extra blue earbud and + 2 sets inear-earbud + Clip on earphone

To me the hands-down best phones for lap swimming are these Pyle's. They're even better than my old ones which I loved. Why?

1. They stay in. The ear loops are really nice. I was skeptical at first, but they are comfortable and keep any small accidental tugs on the cord while swimming from pulling the phones out.

2. They sound really good

3. OMG the price! I paid a couple dollars more than the other reviewers, i guess the price went up, but it is so worth it!! The RMKF's we're 3 times as much and junk.

If you are going to swim laps and want to enjoy your music, get these first!!

I felt the need to chime in here since there was only one review for these when I was shopping and I took the plunge (so to speak) based on the one review. I'm not trying to steer anyone away, just wanted to offer another opinion based on my experience.



I had purchased a Speedo Aquabeat (which I really like), but the earphones that came with the Aquabeat where causing me some difficulties. I saw these and figured for eleven bucks, what the heck.



Compared to the Aquabeat's original earphones, these defintely do NOT sound as good. Given that these are for swimming and workout conditions, I don't expect Shure or Sennheiser quality reproduction, but these are fair to poor by comparison to the Aquabeat originals and the difference is easily discernible. The sound is useable, but it's ten dollar sound, period.



The comfort level was OK for me and I have very sensitive ear canals. I have not as yet used these in the water, but I'm sure they will do - as a spare. I'd rather put up with my originals for the sound quality difference.



The problem I have with the Aquabeat originals happens when I'm done. When I try to take them out, the rubber end pieces frequently detach from the earphone leaving them lodged in my ear and quite literally a pain to get out. These Pyles phones do not seem like they will have that problem, but again, the sound is ten dollar sound. My search continues. - Headphones - Waterproof Earphones - Swimming - In Ear Headphones'

Playstation 3 Slim


That's a nice choice, it comes with the game and also gives you a bonus code to 3 Unlock Points to use on the weapon or ability of your choice, and also includes the Killzone 3 Retro Map Pack, featuring two of the most popular maps from Killzone 2. The box is beautiful by the way. PlayStation 3 160GB Killzone 3 Bundle

I bought this for a friend of mine's birthday. It's a great deal, but I do wish the console were a special edition version like what was released for Metal Gear Solid 4 in Japan. Even if it were just a white console, that would have been cool. Oh well, this is a fantastic buy and Killzone 3 is great. Better controls than Killzone 2, decent continuing story from the Killzone universe, and an absolute graphical masterpiece. If this is your first PS3, I highly recommend Killzone 2, Resistance, Resistance2, the God of War Collection, God of War 3, Uncharted, Uncharted 2, and Metal Gear Solid 4 (only if you know and understand the Metal Gear series and don't mind a lot of cut scenes). PS3 has become my favorite console (I do own a Wii and 360) and if it weren't for the fact that I have a lot of friends on Xbox Live this would probably be my only primary console. This is still one of the best Blu-Ray players, you can watch Netflix streaming service without having to pay extra like you do with LIVE, and you can use VUDU, MLB TV, NHL gamecenter, and if you pay for the Playstation Plus service ($50 per year) you get tons of discounts and free games on the Playstation Store. I've checked and for $50 with Playstation Plus I've already saved over $200 on the Playstation store and I haven't even had the service for a year. Another great additive is that Sony now allows you to buy an extended warranty directly from them over the Playstation Store which automatically registers your PS3 with Sony and can extend their coverage up to 2 years. I have two PS3's. 120gb and an original 60gb. I had to send the 60 gb in to Sony a long time ago to have the HDMI output replaced, but that is the only time I've had a problem with this console. I've had 6 Xbox 360's. All of which failed. So which is the more dependable console? Finally the PS3 allows you to expand it's hard drive space to any size, because it simply uses a normal SATA 2.5" HDD (Laptop hard drive). I currently have 500gb HDDs in both my PS3s and it only cost me about 60 bucks for the hard drives. Long ago when the PS3 came out I was solidly against it when compared to the 360, but since then Sony has righted many wrongs and have made the PS3 my console of choice. If you disagree, cool. To each his/her own.

Great bundle with one of the best games released to date for the PS3. Would have liked to see an extra controller or at least an HDMI cable but for 299 it's still a great price because you're essentially getting the game free with some nice extras (3 unlock points) and a map pack for free as well.

If you haven't noticed yet, this bundle is price the same as the 160GB by itself PS3. You get a 160GB HDD that will last you with no worries of having to upgrade, or the use a USB flash drive like the LOL 4GB 360, so deal! Blu- Ray, deal! Dual Shock 3 controller, deal! And (drum roll) PLZ! Killzone 3 + free DLC content + free online.



Best deal ever!

This bundle is perfect. You get a 160 gigabyte slim console, and an insanely fun game, the online is addicting as ever, and I cannot wait for more map packs to release. There are 5 classes to chose from, and each has its own unlocking features, similar to Battlefield's system. The graphics are spectacular, and makes you feel as if you are watching a sci-fi war movie. The overall system and game are outstanding. Worth every penny, if you ask me. Oh, and the online gameplay is free. So that is a plus as well. I sold my xbox because live is too expensive, and I would rather drive to work then walk. Buy this if you are looking for a ps3 console, or a new console whatsoever. Blu-ray movies are amazing in 1080p resolution, watching Bladerunner has never been so amazing. Great bang for you buck!

Even if you aren't going to play Killzone 3 get this PS3 bundle if you are in the market. You get a $60 game for free that you can sell if you don't want it or trade it in for a different game. Plus, this version of Killzone 3 has the SOCOM preview code, so you will get access to the beta a week before the rest of the public. As for the console itself, this is my 4th. That should tell you that I love the PS3. Everytime I upgrade the TV in a room in my house, I get one to use to stream NetFlix, play Blu-Ray discs and of course, games. The new slim line is great, not as noticeable, and has a matte finish that hides fingerprints. My only gripe is how Sony dropped backward compatibility and dual boot.





EDIT: The price has gone up from when I wrote this review. Its now at a higher price, the same as buying both separately.

I've owned and loved my xbox 360 for several years with no problems whatsoever. But the allure of the highly touted Killzone, Resistance, Uncharted, God of War, and Metal Gear Solid 4 games finally won me over and I picked up this Killzone 3 bundle. And I think I'm in love. The bundle comes with a 160 gb PS3 slim, ps3 dualshock 3 controller with sixaxis capabilities, av component cable (just the standard red, white, yellow), the power cable, a usb-type cable for connecting the controller to the console for charging it, and a full copy of Killzone 3. No HDMI cable is included. Basic setup is very, VERY easy. Connecting the system to a surround sound system was a little more involved, but still very easy. I have a small surround sound system, where the receiver doubles as a dvd player. There aren't very many input/output options. Fortunately, the PS3 has a handy-dandy function that you'll find under "sound" under the "settings" option on the main screen that allows you to select a dual audio output (this isn't the technical term) option. It works like this: I connect an HDMI cable from the console to the TV. Then I connected the av component cable(just the red and white) from the console to the surround sound receiver. Make sure the PS3 is set to the dual audio output option and, "VOILA!", you've got sound coming out of the TV as well as the surround sound system. Just turn the tv volume to "0" and you'll just get beautiful surround sound. If I want to connect my xbox 360 to the receiver, I just unplug the red and white ps3 component cable and plug the xbox cables in. It's a little inconvenient, but it's the price you pay for having a small, simple surround sound system.

Now as for the PS3 itself, I'm loving it so far. I bought Killzone 2 as well so I could play it before Killzone 3, so I actually haven't even opened killzone 3 yet, but Killzone 2 is absolutely amazing. It's basically Call of Duty/Halo/Gears of War all in one, and it's executed spectacularly. It's so good that even half way through the campaign, I still find myself in awe of how great the graphics, gameplay, and atmosphere are. As a diehard xbox fan (never even owned a PS2), I'd go so far as to say that the killzone games alone *almost* justify buying a PS3. But when you add in the other PS3 exclusives like Resistance, God of War, Uncharted, and Metal Gear Solid 4, and an action game junky like myself is fully justified in owning both the xbox 360 and the PS3. Oh yeah, and Playstation Network is free to join. There's the cherry on top.'

Cordless Screwdriver - black and decker, cordless screwdriver


I've had this drill for about a year, and have been very happy with it. The torque settings are pretty much standard, bit with images instead of numbers. It is powerful enough for everything I've thrown at it, seems well made and sturdy, and battery life is not bad at all. It has low speed low torque through low speed high/fixed torque and high speed for drilling. It fits comfortably in the hand. The drill bit holder on the side is pretty hard to get the bit out of, and I don't really use it as a result. Great tool, would buy again. Black & Decker BD12PSK 12-Volt Smart Select Drill

This is a great "lite" power tool to have around the house. For handling screws, drilling drywall, etc, it's excellent. The battery life is really good and the multitude of torque settings are useful. However, if you're wanting to do some serious home improvement projects, you should look elsewhere. I've found it to be a bit anemic when dealing with anything other than soft wood or drywall. If you need to drill metal, concrete, or tile this definitely will not get the job done adequately. I'm happy with it for what it is, which is a great tool for small jobs at a great price.

After using this for about seven years, my old version of this drill died only becuase I drilled through my wrought iron fence which meant constant use for several minutes at a time while I put about 50 lbs of weight on it in 100 degree F heat in the sun!! What I'm saying is this drill was not made for the conditions I put it in. I sill worked for a year, though it would smell burnt becuase I had cooked the insulation.



Don't let the other reviewers who claim the battery will die in a few years fool you. As with any NiCad battery, the key to long life is simple: fully charge, then disconnect from charger. Use the drill till the battery is dead or almost dead before recharge (don't use it shortly, then put it back on charger). If you do so, it will last almost indefinitely. My battery was good as new after 7 years.



I'm going to buy a new one now and will now use my corded drill for super heavy duty work. Use it for what it's made for - light to medium duty.



-Professional Mechanical Engineer

it's exactly what i was looking for and there are a couple of things other consumers need to know ... 1. the plug- in charger is small, so keep an eye out for it.....it plugs into the back of the handle...2. this drill has NO charger indicator anywhere on it, so when you plug it in, be mindful of how long you've had it on the charger and DO NOT keep it plugged in constantly or you'll kill the battery fast. other than that, it's very stable, very well constructed and it CAN handle some heavy work!! try 1/2 inch steel with a titanium drill bit...chewed thru it like a fat man at an all you can eat buffet!! i'm very happy with this product and for what it lacks in lights, it makes up for in raw power. all the of "scrunity reviews" that a lot of people have submitted thus far for what it can and can't do?...listen, i've been a tradesman for going on 20 years and have toolboxes taller than anyone reading this and i can assure you, if this product was worthless, i would most definitely give it the heave. if you're on a budget or are looking for a good replacement for your old beat up 12-volt, this is a great start and it WILL get the job done, but be mindful, EVERY portable tool has it's limitations..as does DeWalt, Makita, Craftsman, Snap-On, Mac or any other toolmaker's products. use the right tool for the right job and you'll be amazed at just how long it will last. overall, great product in an economical package! now go buy some stuff!!

I got this drill from Lowe's for $35.00. It is about the same price at other places. Why is the advertisement here saying it is in the $150 range normally and that they are saving you $113? Also, you have to add in the (sometimes really steep) price of shipping! Something smells here!

If you are like me you are probably looking for a drill for hanging curtain rods and general use. Before buying this drill I was looking at a lot of different brands (milwaukee, dewalt). I understand that this drill is probably not cut out for hardcore construction use like other brands, but it performs the tasks I need it to. Many of the reviews I read about Black and Decker were not very promising, and after owning there electric screwdriver (total waste of money) I was nervous that I wasn't getting a quality product. I am happy with my purchase. I just spent today completing 5 or 6 tasks that I bought it for (shelves, assembly, etc). I give it a "novice drill users" thumbs up.

I mistakenly bought the 12V drill thinking it was the 18V (which I already have at another house). That said, it's perfect for what I use if for - mostly just as a screw-gun. I wouldn't want it for more heavy-duty jobs but it's fine for putting up drywall and such. I gave it four stars because the drill itself is the charger. This means I can not charge the extra battery I bought while using the drill. You can only charge batteries that are on the drill. Stupid!

A handy and useful drill. Got it for a decent price, however I feel a little deceived on that end. The "sale" price was $40. According to the original price, this drill should normally sell for $76. So, I thought I was getting a steal of a deal. Not really. This drill, although worth the $40, is NOT a $76 drill, therefore, the marked down price is deceiving. Not knowing very much about drills, I assumed it was a deep discount (got it during cyber week). This drill is actually sold on other websites at full price for $39. I should have done more research and it is ultimately my fault that I did not. However, do not be fooled by the "sale" on this item.

I bought this and have needed It 4 times already In 4 weeks just putting different things up and the smart technology really works. Sweet.

And what a great price! Unless I happened to catch a sale or deal of the day! The only thing at all. It does not have a carrying case! They really should have for this drill. It still on the original charge I gave It over 4 weeks ago, so the charge Is sure lasting. It fits well In your hand and Into tight side spaces(For the screw)as well. The 111 piece set I got at local True value on sale does have a case and have used it twice too now. So for anyone that wants a GREAT drill. I mean It's a Black & Decker! I can't reccomend enough compared to the 2 I've had to borrow before my purchase. This Is so Inexpensive. Like I said sweet deal. It does come with your standard flat head and philips on the other side that does come attached to It. So they will work for a lot. The smart technology Is great. - Black And Decker - Cordless Tools - Electric Drill - Cordless Screwdriver'

I purchased this laptop three days ago and I can't put it down. I was saving for a MacBook Pro but couldn't wait any longer. This laptop almost matches the 15.4 MacBook Pro, except of course that it isn't a Mac, but this one has more memory. The back-lit keyboard and multi-function trackpad is wonderful. I am able to run two very intense graphic programs at the same time with no lag time. Make sure to make your recovery disks as soon as you open the box since it doesn't come with any restore disks. Toshiba Satellite A665-S5184 15.6-Inch Laptop (Black)

Great machine and a great value for the money but no eSATA port. The specs indicate at least one USB 2.0/eSATA combo port. Bought one last week at Office Max with the expectation that I would be able to directly connect my older eSATA external drive. No such luck. The computer does has a USB 3.0 port so I had to buy a BYTECC eSATA to USB 3.0 adapter from Amazon (which by the way works great) to retain the speed of the eSATA connection.



The machine is noticibly faster than my 6 month old i3-350 Toshiba. I will give it 5 stars because of the outstanding value even though the lack of a direct connect eSATA port was a small problem.

This is my first Toshiba, and I'm impressed. The speed of the i7 quad core is awesome. Extended keyboard is extreamly comfortable. Multitouch pad gives you extra funcionalities. It's perfect for my need, I do computer programming and works like a charm for my environment. I don't do games neither heavy graphic intensive applications, so on board video is more than enough for me. USB 3.0/eSATA port is ultra fast, I bought also a Seagate usb 3.0 external disc, I get peaks of 100MB/s and average of 70MB/s copying big files.

Definitively I would recommend this laptop. Looks also is really nice. I can't believe I paid less than 1000 USD for these machine. Very happy customer over here :)

Gave this to my daughter as a gift. Very pleased. I set it up for her; and runs smooth. Minimal bloatware, and I liked the solid keyboard, extended battery, specifications are excellent. bought this model so the can use the wireless display with a TV. Remember though this benefit is limited because it won't streamline copyrighted DVDs. Otherwise excellent features...

User: medium to high end user. Use: video editing, word processing, web navigation, daily use (work and home).

It is a very nice laptop: delivers modern technology for a fair price. 2nd generation Core i7 quad core helps video editing as ram memory do.

Display is big enough to work daily ad yet relatively easy to carry, although it's definition could be better (1600 X 900), specially for viewing blu ray movies.

Speakers are better than most laptops I have seen so far, but still could be a bit louder (it can be difficult to listen to it in a noisier environment - if you record audio louder, is OK for laptop).

Keyboard is nice, although at the beginning it felt a little strange for typing. It has numpad which I find dispensable. A good thing is a button to disable mouse pad so as not to interfering on the typing process, but I did not have this problem with it (did not need to disable it to type my annotations at university).

Battery has an excellent performance for the display size and laptop performance: about seven to eight hours in eco mode. Other outstanding feature is having spare battery for sale (not common from others brands like MSI or Asus.

Hard disk has a good size (500 GB), but it runs at 5400 rpm: it could be faster, but maybe it would compromise battery autonomy. Maybe the new Hybrid seagate could be an option or SSD. I feel sorry this laptop does not handle two hard disks: I would give five stars. HD is placed in a separate and accessible slot that make its change very easy.

Webcam image is good. Audio recording is very good. It is not a noisy laptop nor quiet. I did not get hot so far.



Negative:

No Bluetooth

10/100 LAN port (does not bother me)

better hardware info: I could not discover the motherboard's hard disk sata interface: sata 300 (3 gbps) ou 600 (6 gbps)?

Conclusion: very nice purchase for about US$ 1000,00, but it would be outstanding if it improves display resolution, have sata 600 interface. Bluetooth would be OK. A laptop that could match this would be customized 17" HP with two HDs and good battery autonomy for about US$ 1600,00. - Toshiba - Satellite - 15'

Playstation 3 Controller


Well folks, now that the dust has settled from the Sony vs. Immersion lawsuit, Playstation 3 owners are finally able to feel the vibe again!



I purchased this controller today and I knew the only way to properly road-test it was on the game that made the Dualshock famous, Metal Gear Solid. After booting up the game, I walked down the hallway and got spotted by a guard. As he shouted, "WHO'S THAT?" the controller jumped in my hand - and I knew this was a smart purchase. As the guards shot at me, I felt the feedback of the bullets, just as I had 10 years ago on my Sony Playstation.



I picked out another old school Playstation game, Tenchu: Stealth Assassins. From Ayame's blades to Rikimaru's sword, each sword swipe and jump had excellent feedback.



Okay, so my Playstation games worked out. But what about my Playstation 2 library?



I popped in God of War, knowing I had to feel the swing of the Blades of Chaos. The controller vibrations felt a little lighter here, but the vibrations still occurred at the appropriate times.



Then I chose Incredible Hulk Ultimate Destruction. Who better to test a vibration controller than the Sultan of Smash? All the power jumps and smashes had the vibrations intact, but they still felt a little on the light side.



All right, so far I was two for two with my Playstation and Playstation 2 test subjects. But what about my Playstation 3 games? Could I possibly hit a trifecta?



I put in Uncharted: Drake's Fortune and I decided to jump right into a heated firefight. The controller gave me feedback while shooting weapons and getting hit by enemy fire, but I knew my purchase was justified when Drake was near death: I FELT THE DUALSHOCK 3 PULSING IN SYNCH WITH DRAKE'S HEARTBEAT. It's one thing to hear that noise and know he's near death, it's quite another to feel the pulse in my own hands.



Okay, so the feedback on the older games was there, but a little lighter than I remember. The reason? Well, when I decided to go wireless on my Playstation 2 system, I bought a Logitec Dualshock controller. It turns out, that controller takes two "AA" batteries, and the vibration motors inside the controller handles are slightly larger than the ones in the Dualshock 3. That's where I felt the difference.



The Dualshock 3 vibrations may be slightly less than the Logitec controller, but it doesn't require the purchase of batteries.

The Dualshock 3 may be slightly heavier than the SixAxis, but it doesn't take up any extra space at all.



Sure, the price is about $15 more than the SixAxis, but it's a worthy upgrade for the Playstation 3 gamer who kicks it old school as well as new school. The only other drawback is the lack of an additional USB cable - but we can use the one that came with the system itself.



So what's the final verdict?



Order it, plug it in, charge it up, and get ready for the inevitable downloads from the Playstation Store to make the older PS3 games Dualshock 3 compatible.



I wouldn't recommend a feedback peripheral without providing my own feedback...



Enjoy! PlayStation 3 Dualshock 3 Wireless Controller (Black)

I was already extremely happy with the Sixaxis controller, but I could not resist getting the DualShock 3. Not only do you get the rumble, but also, it feels much better in your hands, even for those games that do not use this feature. The rumble function is fun, but on top of that, it helps with gameplay, because "feeling" what is happening provides a lot more feedback than just watching how your character or car reacts to the environment.



The biggest surprise of all was that the rumble works with PS 2 games in the PS 3 system. I am currently playing through "God of War", a game which had the rumble capability in PS 2. I thought that it was unlikely that I was going to get this feature with this new controller in the PS 3, but it worked perfectly.



I know that having to buy a new controller and basically discard the one that came with the system is not the ideal situation, but I have to say this product is really worth shedding the extra bucks.

The Playstation 2's highly regarded DualShock 2 controller was considered by many to be the best videogame controller of all time. So when you've got a winning design there's no need to change anything. However, because of a legal battle with Immersion over rumble technology, Sony was forced to offer their Sixaxis controller without rumble. The Sixaxis had the same Dualshock design but it felt too lightweight and cheap. Thankfully the lawsuit has been settled and rumble has come back to the Playstation.



For the most part, the DualShock 3 is almost identical to its PS2 precessor. But it has all the features of the original Sixaxis controller in addition to rumble. The controller is still wireless, can be charged by plugging it into your PS3 (or PC), rumble is compatible with all PS1 and PS2 games, and the PS3 supports up to 7 controllers at the same time via bluetooth. Rumble in the DualShock 3 seems more responsive in regards to the location of its vibration depending on which side you get hit on during the games. I don't know if this is something in the design or if it's the developers doing it for the games but I welcome it.



All in all this is currently the best designed controller on the market right now. The PS2's DS2 was incredible so "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" applies here. I'll be enjoying rumble in my PS3 games from now on.

Do not buy the pink controller from Digistore, It is a fake, the joysticks are very stiff the buttons are taller and with dull ink, it also has a hard time syncing with console. Battery last 5 minutes tops. The sticker on the back is simply paper, not the plasticized decal on authentic sonys. Apearence-wise its a good fake, but use it and you'll know All the classic signs of a counterfeit. this isn't worth $5, much less $45 and two weeks of waiting. AVOID DIGISTORE, they are thieves who knowingly sell cheap knock offs.'

I liked the shirt. I paid 42.99 at Macy's for the white. Now the price is around 29. The sleeves are longer than other 32/33 shirts. I am 5'5" and I had to alter the sleeve length. I took one star for that. These shirts are made in Thailand. The tailoring is OK but not perfect.
