Mexican Yoga Blanket - hugger mugger, yoga blanket

Visit Store Now !!

I'm a cyclist and reasonably new to yoga (4 months). Because I spend so much time on a bike my hamstrings are tight, so I need to use a blanket or other prop to keep my hips above my knees in some sitting positions. The blankets at my yoga studio look and feel like old army blankets, but work well for this purpose. However, I decided it would be better if I had my own.



The Manduka blanket is a good bit thinner than the studio blankets, so if you need a bolster with a lot of height you might want to consider something else. That said, this blanket gives good solid support. So for me it works great - I just need a few inches of stable support. It looks nice, and feels pretty soft (compared to other yoga blankets, but obviously its still a wool blanket to it does have a little 'scratchy' feel to it).



Highly recommend it if you don't need a high bolster and you want something comfortable to keep you warm during savasana. Manduka Standard Recycled Wool Blanket (Thunder)

The color is really pretty. It doesn't smell. It's soft enough that it's not itchy or irritating like the thicker blankets that work a little better for shoulder stand. It could be thicker but, it's thick enough that two give me sufficient lift for shoulder stand. People who need a lot of height in shoulder stand may not find this blanket the most economical way to get it. However, you could less expensive ones below and put this one on top since it's comfortable to the touch. I think I paid $45 w/shipping for this. It seemed like a bit much but, I do like this blanket a lot.

soft, HUGE, just plush enough, quality stitching, not itchy



i was a little worried about how much it was shedding when i first got it, but i washed/dried it (on cool) three or four times before using it, and it's been great ever since. i also didn't have any issues with a chemical odor or anything



i might buy another one at some point when i have need for another wool blanket

I've purchased other Manduka products and been very pleased with all of them. I've only been using this blanket for a month, so not sure how it will hold up, but I"m pleased so far. It is soft, color is pleasing (Thunder--kind of a gray). The only thing I am not 100% happy with is that it is a bit thin for shoulder stands. Otherwise excellent for other poses

Another high quality product from Manduka. This blanket is great for restorative yoga or even for using at home.



I own two, one in acai and one in moss. They both wash and wear extremely well. I love Manduka and what the company stands for.



This blanket will not disappoint you. - Mexican Yoga Blanket - Yoga Blanket - Hugger Mugger - Blankets'

Holster - seidio, thunderbolt

Visit Store Now !!

I was pretty much forced to buy this case because I am going on vacation and there wasn't much else to choose from besides silicone bumper like cases with no real carrying solution. It is a nice case but definitely NOT worth the $50 I paid. It offers some protection (more than a silicone bumper) but I doubt it would protect the phone like an Otterbox or Kraken would. Unfortunately, I am sure those cases won't be available for a 1-3 months. There is no screen protection at all unless you have it in the holster so you will still need a protective film of some type.



If you can't wait and are in absolute immediate need of a case with a holster style carrying solution and you can't find anything else this will definitely work. But if you can I recommend you wait for an Otterbox or Kraken case to become available. I am sure the price point will be the same and you'll get more for your money. Seidio SURFACE Case and Holster Combo for use with HTC ThunderBolt (Black)

The case itself is good enough. It's shaped like a silcone case protecting the back and sides but it's a hard plastic. The case is very smooth making it difficult to hold a large phone like the thunderbolt. I ended up taking some sandpaper to rough it up to make the phone easier to hold. The biggest problem I have with it is the price, this thing is way to expensive. When I ordered it I thought there would be more to it to justify the price but there isn't anything special about it. This should be selling around the $20 price point.

I received my Seidio surface case w/ holster a day earlier than expected. So far this case is actually better than I thought it would be!! It gives a clean professional look, and can be worn with a suit and tie without standing out. It does give some protection, but I still wouldn't want to drop my phone!!! I purchased this to hold me over until the new Ballistic case was available. I still plan on getting the other case, but this one will will definitely get it's use!!

After about a month of use, this case seems to be holding up fine. It's a bit expensive, although, when you consider that it's a slip-on case as well as a separate belt holster/clip, it seems more cost effective. I like the screen facing in when the phone is in the holster, as it gives me some peace of mind against accidental damage, and provides some protection against accidental activation/dialing and privacy breeches. The clips (both the belt clip and the one that secure the phone) seem to be well made and holding up fine. My only gripe is that I wish the slip-case on the phone had a slightly more tactile/rubbery feel to it, a la the Body Glove type cases. The cover is slightly too slippery and at times makes holding the phone a bit like trying to cling to that bar of soap in the shower. Other than that, so far, so good.

When I initially received the case it seemed very nice. No more than 2-3 days later i noticed the outer covering of the case was beginning to peel. I have had it for about 3 weeks now, and it has became progressively worse. I expected much better given how this case is so overpriced! Will be returning this to merchant!

This is the 4th Seidio case I have purchased and I have loved them all. One did crack when I dropped the phone, but it protected the phone from damage.

I've tried to find cheaper alternatives in the past, but I always come back to the Innocase. I recommend it to everyone I know.

They fit the Thunderbolt securely, have a great feel in the hand, where I am confidant that it won't slip and the colors are great (bought 2).

I would definitely buy again for whatever my next device will be.

I had just bought the HTC Thunderbolt online and needed a holster and case for it. I was hoping to find one for it like the hard shell and holster that I had for my BlackBerry Tour, so I went into a Verizon Shop and asked if there was anything available of that type. The clerk told me that since the phone had just come out the day before, nothing had been developed for it yet, he said "Hell, I don't even have any spare batteries for the phone.

I came home and checked on Amazon and found "Seidio Innocase II Surface Case and Holster Combo for use with HTC ThunderBolt" and purchased it and an additional battery for the phone along with some clear screen protectors.

The entire order arrived within 3 days and when I opened the box up, it wasn't the extract same item, although it was close, but, much easier to use. I have been using all three items since that day and I am delighted with my purchase. If you buy the case, get the battery package combined with it. These Thunderbolts are AWESOME PHONES!! My upload and download and speed has been clocked at over 10MB each and I think but wouldn't swear to it that there might be more useful free apps for the Android then the iPhone and Blackberry combined. Anytime I think I need an app for something, I just go to the Marketplace and find one usually right out of the gate! I am thrilled with this phone, but getting to the original point, the only downside is the they suck batteries down faster than my 6 year old daughter sucks down a Vanilla Milkshake at Mickey D's so I always carry a fully charged Seidio Innocell 1600mAh Slim Extended-Life Battery. I'm not really sure that has an extended life, but, having that extra battery sure has saved my butt when I needed it saved. The battery seems to live up to the promise of providing Extended life and it is slim enough for me to keep in my wallet under needed for more Android time.

The screen protectors are no different than any that I've used in the past, just remember to carefully wet the screen down using a Windex type of product, push out the bubbles, the it dry and your good to go. The screen protectors are cut so that they perfectly cover the screen for the thunderbolt and I think they are a worthy investment.

If you decide to buy the package for about $80.00 to $90.00 it has been a great one to me!!! - Thunderbolt - Seidio'

I calculated it out, and it was actually cheaper to buy this NEW PRINTER than buy overpriced ink cartridges for my noisy ancient HP printer. (I still can't get over that!)



Pros:

1. Cost: great for price, especially considering it's functionality

2. Scanner: pretty good quality considering, but again, I'm used to my fossil of a printer... obviously wouldn't be the best for applications requiring intense scanning capabilities, but for everyday use, awesome

3. WIRELESS: Sorry, but this concept to me is still astounding. "you mean, I can have my printer on the other side of the house and still print things from it?!" Much better than keeping the printer within two feet of the computer, and it reduces the number of unmanageable tangled cords by at least one [no usb connection needed] (two [power cord] if you located the printer away from the computer)

4. Fax, though I don't use it (or have a main line for that matter) is a nice additional feature. Maybe once they (maybe they already have) figure out a way to attach cell phones or go over the internet, this will be more useful for me. Still, good feature for others needing this, as fax is still a pretty common form of communication and document sharing.

5. Separate color ink cartridges: FINALLY! I hate having my HP color cartridge run out of ONE color and then having to figure out how to use it still; there's still two colors of ink in there... but they're pretty useless for full color images (and you better hope you don't forget which one of the three it is). Now they're all separate and easy to get to (front flap folds down) and change.

6. Cheap off-brand ink cartridges: Unlike other companies (cough cough) there seems to be an abundance of off brand ink cartridges for Brother printers... which is good! Saves you a LOT of money, as long as you're willing to put up with a dud every once in a while (for the money... about $1 per cartridge... it's totally worth it). Additionally, the pages per cartridge for this printer is much higher than HP's 21 and 22 cartridges- making the price per cartridge even more enticing.

7. LCD screen: it's in color! I didn't realize when I bought- nice surprise.



Cons:

1. hidden paper tray: I was initially very excited about this feature... so tired of papers sticking out of the printer and getting bent, folded, dusty, dirty, etc. However, it doesn't hold as many sheets as I would have hoped and it gets jammed a lot. I've used the printer for three days now, and of all three times, it got jammed twice. Hey, maybe it's just user error, but I re-read the directions, just to make sure I wasn't being an idiot.

2. Wireless: Wait, yes, I did have this listed as a pro above, but I at least HAVE to mention that obviously if your internet/router/service goes down, you literally can't print unless you manually haul the thing back over to your computer and dig out a usb cord. I know, not the end of the world, but still, a bit frustrating.

3. EVERY time it gets manually connected to a wireless network, it prints out this sheet saying so... completely stupid and not very sustainable.. plus it just wasted some of your ink and a page of paper. Can you stop this? I'm sure. However, it's still frustrating... especially for a sheet of paper you're just going to throw out anyways(or cut up and recycle as notes!).

4. Footprint: I was hoping it would be a bit smaller (I realize the dimensions are listed). It's still massive on my bookshelf.

5. Noise: I was hoping for a decently quiet machine... while this is quieter than my last printer, it's still pretty loud.





Overall: Good product for the price- The pros outweigh the cons, and seriously, some of those cons aren't even much of an issue. For someone who's just looking for something that prints and not necessarily too concerned about professional prints and a little noise (aka. students, home office?, etc.), this is a good deal. Again, especially for the price. Compared to others in it's $$ range, this probably has the most bang for the buck (gadget wise and cheap ink.. if nothing else) Brother Black Compact Inkjet All-in-One with Fax and Wireless Networking (MFCJ265W)

I recently purchased a Brother MFC-J265W printer to replace my MFC-210C that stopped printing in black after four years of great service. The J265W was an outstanding value on Amazon. I have a small home office for my artwork business and this MFC does everything I ask of it quietly and efficiently. Some of the comments I read about this printer said that it did fair color printing of photos. I have printed photos and several artworks using quality photo paper and the results are superb. It scans photos and artwork better than many professional scanners. The ability to make quick easy in-house copies is also a big plus. I have not used the fax or the card reader function as yet.

A marvelous feature of Brother MFC is the inexpensive ink cartridges, the name brand cartridges are cheaper that HP, Canon, Lexmark, and others. Amazon has great non-OEM Brother cartridges at veru low prices that work flawlessly with this printer.

I highly recommend this very quiet and dependable little workhorse fax, copier, scanner, printer. - Scanner - Wireless - Inkjet Printer - All-in-one'

I bought this in a bind at the airport so I overpaid a bit, but it was highly worth it. I used it with my wife to watch a movie we rented on the plane and the individual volume controls were awesome because the 2 different headsets we use greatly vary in the amount of volume they output.

The only knock I would have on this product is the price, but I see today that Amazon has "See price in cart" Price of $15 for it which makes it much more easy to swallow.



Also, as with many Monster products, the cabling is made out of durable material. Monster iSplitter 1000 Y-Splitter with Volume Control/Mute for iPod and iPhone

I purchased this splitter at PDX ($20). I've been looking for awhile for something that offered volume control... and was originally going to settle for a pair of earbuds that did, and then set the volume on my computer/mp3 player high enough for the weaker pair. The sales guy warned me away from the cheaper splitter, claiming there'd be a lot of hiss. The volume control "slide" controls are effective and easy to use. The build quality appears to be very good/rugged. The splitter and spare Skull Candy Ink'd earbud fit in a repurposed Altoids can. Bottom line:

- Passes through audio signal very well

- Efficient enough to drive two earphones (one good, one crappy) with my computer set at 50% volume (saves battery)

- Ability for *each* individual to set the volume to *their own* preference themself

For what it does, this device performs okay. Volume control is not very good. Goes from mute to very loud. Anything in between is less than stellar, as one of the headphone speakers mutes if you adjust to mid range.

I bought this from Amazon a few days before my wife and I had to go on a cross-country flight. I wanted something that would allow us both to watch DVDs on the same computer. Overall, the iSplitter is pretty good and it does what it's supposed to. It feels very robust and well constructed. The sound quality is fine. The only complaint I have is that the the volume controls (one of the reasons I purchased this device over other splitters) can be charitably described as coarse. There is a tiny spatial difference between mute and full volume on these controllers, so even coarse volume adjustments require minute movements of the controllers. In reality, you can maybe get four or five meaningfully distinct volume settings out of this controller (0 and 100% being two of them). So, if you want a sound splitter that has SOME control over volume on each side and that feels as if it is fairly well made, buy this.

I got this splitter at an airport store before an international flight so I could watch movies on my iPhone with my wife. The first time we plugged it in we could hear nothing, even though the volume switch was set to the highest. It turns our that I have to twist and turn each headphone cable while plugged into the splitter to get any sound out of it. It does work once you turn your cable a certain way, but I will be returning this to the store once I get back from my trip.

Solid construction and the volume controls are very good too. Much better than similar no-name products that already get defective after 5 times plug / unplug. This one is build to last and i'm very happy with it. We use it with the bedroom TV-set so we can watch TV with headphones (earbuds) on.

I have used a number of earphone splitters in the past but usually find them below expectations. The problems of connection and interference are common.



But using this Monsters Splitter, I don't get any issues and audio remain loud and clear. The volume control is pretty cool too.

I'll start by saying that I later purchased a different, but equivalent version of this product from Monster and it was everything I expected (Monster 123872-00 iSplitter Shared Headphone Adapter).



This particular model is VERY touchy with the volume control. When one person adjusted their volume down the volume went up for the other person (and vice versa). Also, less than a couple months in the silver piece around the plug came loose and now slides up and down the small cord section.



It's counter-intuitive but the Monster 123872-00 iSplitter Shared Headphone Adapter is MUCH higher quality and cheaper as well. - Audio - Volume Control - Headphone Accessories - Dual'

This is my first experience with a Boss product, and I have to say that it will be the last. While it has plenty of bells and whistles, it's not what it's cracked up to be. For something that seems so nifty and extravagant, it's programming screens and everything are very generic and lackluster, like programming a Tandy TRS80 from way back in the day...The biggest pro is that there are tons of ways to play media. USB, MP3 input jack, SD card slot, cd/dvd slot (which will play MP3's, MP4's, DVD's, etc.), are all included and snazzy ideas. But the controls are clumsy and unpredictable. And as for the USB port, I was psyched. But unless you put a 256 MB drive in it, you're in for quite a wait, while it apparently has to load and read every file before starting. I have a 4 GB jumpdrive in it, which takes about 5 minutes to load. But what absolutely takes the cake is it's tendency to change sources randomly, seemingly on it's own insane schedule. In a 45 - minute trip to work, I've actually had to change the source back to radio, or cd, or jumpdrive, or whatever more than 25 times. Then, it'll work fine for an hour or two. It's really aggravating... Boss BV7300 3.2-Inch In-Dash Widescreen TFT Monitor/DVD/MP3/CD Receiver

Overall, the unit is good. Few drawbacks as mentioned below:

1. The buttons are small.

2. DVDs won't be played in cold weather, CDs are fine.

3. There are no dimmer/illumination wires. If the manufacture stereo has these wires, you must tape them carefully when connecting to prevent short circuit.

I am not a hater of this company. This dvd player got way too hot to be installed in my trailer or rv. It was sooo hot that I spit on my finger and touched the side and it sizzled. NO KIDDING. some of the wires were not shiny and were oxidized. very cheap product. Please don't waste your time and buy one. If you cannot afford a dvd player...just save your money until you can. this thing would start a fire and kill someone someday.

When I first got the radio it sat for a few weeks finally had it installed and hated it.The radio would switch from sd to cd to radio on its on. Mid song sd would cut off or worse skip. I hated this radio I was in the process of returning it when the shop who installed it recommend i change the connectors. Long story short they first installed my cd player using electrical tape to connect the wires so they went back and used Dorman connectors part # 85491 runs between 2.50 and 3.50 i believe amazon sells them but any autozone or oreilly's carry them. Since then I can finally blast my music with out the radio turning it self off. I still would not recommend this to anyone because all the issues it caused me and on top of that i can not have a cd in the cd player while listening to my sd card.

I just bought this deck.... and i have never been more dissapointed in the quality of a product. the deck keeps turning off at random times while driving, i double checked all wiring that they were good connections, still problem persisted. the screen image in the add is very deceptive also.. the playing screen looks like an old old computer moniter with 2 blue bars. when it does work, there is a loud humming noise that comes through the speakers, and it takes forever to load and play cd's. and to try and adjust the equalizer settings takes too long, the directional selector is way too touchy and i keep changing through songs trying to adjust volume.. all in all bad deck, especially for the msrp. i got it for $60, and even then not worth it!

Cd Player Does Not Work And Usb Does Not Work... Have to Hold The Reset Button Everytime you start the Car . so you can only listen to the fussey Radio . Dont WASTE YOUR TIME AND BUY THIS . Spent all day hooking it up and talking with the boss tech support and then i had to take it out and send it back.

Got this for a 2005 Jeep Liberty. All I really needed was a stereo with an AUX jack for my ipod but I found this on Amazon for a great price and I couldn't pass it up. I didn't expect it to look half as good as it does in the picture, to my surprise it looks even better!! The buttons are small, but the remote is easy to use and works great. I like that it has a USB port and a slot for an SD memory card in addition to the aux jack.



I have NO experience so I took it to a local shop and they installed it for me. It only took them 30 minutes, so I'm sure if you have a little knowledge about how these works you could do it in a few hours.

I just bought a car with one of these in it... WOW. It is in one single piece of equipment an entire argument in favor of minimalist electronic design. I have NO IDEA how to get it to do what I want, it is the least intuitive design of pretty much anything I've ever seen. Mine looks like it has been punched on more than one occasion, and it better get used to that treatment because until I can afford a new stereo I'm stuck with either eerie silence or this thing going KKKKKKKKKHHHHHHHHHHHHH when not even doing anything. And a remote? seriously? SO useful when driving at night, especially if you enjoy the sensation of wrapping your car around a tree.

Epson Workforce 610 - fax, multifunction printer

Visit Store Now !!

Just bought this today and set it up. Unfortunately didn't have time to take advantage of the great Amazon Price as I needed a work replacement ASAP. I want to let everyone know that this comes with a complete set of XL print Cartridges; which can be as much as $80, for the set; B&W and Color; so it's a no brainer good buy. Haven't had time to evaluiate color printing; but the set up yeah, takes time, but everything works perfectly when done. The fax is super easy and efficient. Quality wise, yeah! there are better items; but you have to start to move into the $300.00 range! The Salesman at Office Depot, told me he had the 600 model; and never had a problem! Testimonials folks, that why we come to Amazon. Epson WorkForce 630 Color Inkjet All-in-One (C11CB07201)

I've read a few reviews here, and let me say, if you're looking for super high quality printing, you need to look for a photo printer...not an all-in-one. If you are looking to make fancy brochures on high gloss, you will probably be disappointed...however, I think most realize it's cheaper to pay someone else to print such items.



Packaging:

Epson really packed this unit up nicely. It wasn't over the top, but they made sure moving parts (like the paper tray, scanner and top all had stickers keeping them in place (stong, but very easy to remove).



Installation:

I wasn't able to do it in one sitting due to surrounding circumstances (i.e. my children). In all, with unpacking, set up, and software installation, it took me about an hour. This includes the time it took waiting for the software to install on my desktop which is not the fastest.



I did not set this up wirelessly, so I cannot speak to that. I have it hooked up via USB.



Overview:

I purchased my WorkForce 630 from Office Max online for $80 with free shipping (best deal all around right now).



This all-in-one is slick. It is quiet, easy to set up, intuitive, and is of good quality considering it does not cost $300+.



I have used the scanner a number of times. First I scanned one page by placing it on directly over the scanner. It converted the image into pdf and went straight to "My Pictures". BTW, the graphical display and menu is fantastic. You can select how you want the image scanned right there without fumbling around with software loaded on your compy. I didn't like that default destination folder, and to my delight it was very simple to assign a new destination. The image quality of the scans is very good. After scanning 1 page, I then used the auto-feeder and scanned 3 documents. It worked *great*. Getting an effective auto-feeder can be difficult to find. Of course, I haven't tried 10 pages, that would be a better test.



Printing quality is very good. Will you want to print photos? Maybe not...then again, I never use a home printer for that. I prefer using a photo center. Will you be able to print high quality documents with bar graphs and more? Yes, and it will do it quite well. Nothing sub-par at all about it.



My impression is that this is a very high quality all-in-one. I'm pleased I got it for the price I did, but I think even at it's retail price it's a better value than other all-in-ones.



Highly recommend.

Awesome all-in-one printer for $80. I originally went to Staples to purchase the Epson WorkForce840 all in one printer for my home office. But when I saw this one for $80 ($70 off), with the basically the same features as the $180 WorkForce 840, I figured why not give the 630 a try. So far it is great. I've done printing, sanning, and faxing with no problems. The software is fine; I saw others complained the software being too basic, but not sure what they expect a printer to do? Work for them, make pizza?



In my opinion as a frugal shopper, The Epsone WorkForce 630 is a great buy for $80. Nothing on the market can beat this one for that price.

I purchased this from Sams Club for less than $100. For all the features it has it should cost at least twice that. I have been nothing but impressed with this printer. Unpacking the printer, taking off all tape, plugging it in, waiting 5 min for the initializing, and plugging in wireless settings on the printer itself took 15-20 min. Setting it up on the 4 computers in the house was quick and easy and no software was needed to find the drivers. For those that mentioned problems with the software I would recommend downloading just the printer driver off of Epson's website instead of installing the software from the CD. The biggest thing I like about this printer is the only cord that is plugged in is the power cord. This cuts down on the clutter of cables that generally accompanies any piece of electronic equipment.



FEATURES

This printer is very fast with scanning or printing. When plugging in a memory card to the printer it automatically says how many pictures are available on the card and asks if you would like to print them.



SCANNING

I like that I can either scan to a memory card on the printer or scan to a computer from the Automatic Document Feeder, scan 30 pages, walk away, come back, and it's done. Working in insurance this is a huge advantage from before where I had to manually scan each page. It also scans it to PDF for easy emailing or saving on my computer. I've found another advantage is I can now go paperless with receipts and bills. It's easy to keep track of receipts for warranty purposes and they don't take up room in a file drawer like they used to.



PRINTING

Printing is quick and easy. With wireless I can print from anywhere in the house. I don't do a lot of photo printing so I can't comment. I've printed a couple reports in color and they look comparable to my laser printer.



Overall this is a great printer. When you add in the features you get for the price you pay it's unbelievable. Based on other reviews it sounds like it's better to set this printer up without using the software and save on headaches down the road. - Multifunction Printer - All-in-one - Wireless Printer - Fax'

Iphone Charger - charger, griffin

Visit Store Now !!

This item includes a wall plug adapter, a cigarette lighter adapter, and a sync/charging cable that works with various Apple devices (such as the iPad, iPhone, and most iPod models). The advantage to this particular set is that the charging port puts out 2.1 amps, which means that it is designed to charge the iPad at the same rate as the adapter that is packaged with the iPad. Some reviewers on Amazon and elsewhere have reported that it actually charges the iPad slightly faster than the original adapter, and I confirmed with my Kill-a-Watt that the Griffin actually draws about 10% more power from the wall than the stock adapter (see details below). I do not have the tools to accurately check the current draw from the cigarette adapter, but I wouldn't be surprised if it also charges an iPad more quickly.



STOCK iPad ADAPTER:

When first plugged in: 11W

After a few seconds: 10W

Above 80% charge: 9W



GRIFFIN POWERBLOCK WALL CHARGER:

When first plugged in: 12W

After a few seconds: 11W

Above 80% charge: 10W



The cable packaged with the Griffin chargers works not only as a charging cable, but as a sync cable as well; i.e. you can use it to connect your Apple device and your computer to sync data between them. If you have an iPad, it WILL charge as well--although the iPad screen will probably say "Not charging" and the charge rate will be much slower (.5A from most USB ports, compared to 2.1A from the wall or cigarette lighter).



The Griffin chargers are light but seem well built. The wall charger, although longer than the stock iPad charger, is only slightly thicker but not as wide (see my customer image), and it also has a folding plug. So it has a nice form factor that is just as convenient for travel as the original adapter.



This set is also available at the Apple store, so obviously Apple endorses this set of Griffin chargers for their own products. However, it is considerably cheaper here on Amazon. Griffin Technology PowerDuo 2 amp Power Charger for iPad, iPhone and iPod (Black)

I have tried several of the USB wall chargers and none have been able to charge my Kindle 2. This one has charged everything I have tried it with. I really like the folding prongs on the wall charger, makes it easier to pack. I also like that this package gives you the ability to charge both in your hotel and in your car, all with the same USB cables.



I travel with a Kindle 2, a Blackberry, and a Ipod Touch. It works with them all. Additionally, one of my friends has the Ipad and I confirmed it does charge the Ipad in a reasonable time frame.



The light is not annoyingly bright like some other USB chargers, but easy to see.



My only wish is that the wall charger had multiple USB ports, but not dividing the current may be why it charges the Kindle.

Finding a decent charger for Apple's newest products is not as simple as you think. All of the products above require newer more powerful chargers and most older ones will not work at all. In addition, the cheap newer copies are hit or miss and you really can mess up your i-product. This Griffin charger works great and charges quickly with no annoying messages popping up on your device. The company is very respectable. The conversion from wall to car is handy for traveling and the cord is long but not too long. . Highly recommended.

I've gone through about half a dozen chargers for my various iDevices, and this one is the best by far.



* Charges very quickly compared to other chargers

* Works consistently with iPad and iPhone (no compatibility errors)

* Solid quality materials (superior to Apple's which I found to be quite prone to having a frayed/separated connector)



I will never again buy a cheapo charger. The quality in this one is well worth it. Highly recommended.

The product works well in the United States. The transformer specs state 100V to 220V input range. However, when it was used in Japan, where the power outlet voltage is 100V, it discharged my 4th generation iPod Touch. Fortunately, my friend had a charger made by apple; it was able to charge my iPod Touch in Japan.

Just got the product, Griffin Technology PowerDuo 2 amp Power Charge. I bought it based on the specification which states that

(1) it accepts 110-240 volt AC input:

(2) DC output is 5v 2.1A.

(3) cable length is 3.5'

The former enables me to use it in other countries such as japan, korea, and european countries. The second spec ensures that ipad, ipod touch, iphone will be charged with no problem and fast -- 2.1A is enough. The cable length is long enough as well, over 3' (3.5').



I did not test every aspect of the product yet. But, considering the price, it is good enough, if it works well according to its spec. I am happy with the product. - Griffin - Chargers - Ipad - Charger'

I was amaze at how small the box was. But overall the charger is amazing for the price. I also love that it has a ON/OFF switch on the back plus 2 extra USB to charge just about anything that uses a USB port to charge (cell phone, MP3, bluetooth,PS3 controller).Also once the controllers are fully charge the light changes blue to show that they are fully Charge. Of course the price could not better beats paying $29.99 for the charger that was release with the move which only charged 2 controllers, this one charges 4 and 2 extra USB for anything else. I would recommend this to anyone who in the market for a Move control charger.



On a note * The usb part of this product does NOT charge Apple products such as( iPod, iPhone, iPad, etc.)Since this might be a big deal for some. PS3 Move Quad Charger

The Quad combines a sleek, small form design with a low price when compared to 'the competition' and a level of functionality that exceeded my expectations.





Briefly, this is what you get for your money:



- 2 Move Motion Controller chargers

- 2 Move Navigation Controller chargers

- 2 'universal' USB Type A ports

- 120/240V AC adapter

- On/Off switch



With 'quad' standing for 'four', this is in fact more than that. Besides its ability to directly charge the Move Motion and Nav Controllers you also get 2 USB ports in the back that you could use to charge DualShock controllers, your PS3 wireless keypad, a Bluetooth headset or anything that could be charged through a USB cable (not included).



In addition, the Quad is pretty too. The red glow surrounding the base of your Motion or Nav controllers while they are charging turns to blue when the charge is complete and the black, rubberized finish allows it to integrate well within a PS/3 environment.



This is a 5 stars without any hesitation.

Unlike the Useless garbage Quad Charger by CTA that I ordered first, this one actually delivers.



Features:



Small Footprint - (Much smaller than the CTA model)

Dedicated On/Off switch on back

Ruberized feel

Lighted circles around controllers light blue when charge is complete.

Controllers fit well in their slots, don't flop around.

Faster charging than USB cabled from PS3 itself, and you don't have to leave the PS3 on, so it saves energy as well.



This does everything you want a Quad Charger to do, and there are 2 Bonus USB ports on back for most other USB devices (Not I Pod/ I Phone)

These charge my SAXIS controllers (2)



I have 2 Nav Controllers, 2 Move Controllers, and 2 SAXIS Controllers - this charges them ALL at once.



For the price - This is the best currently available- HANDS DOWN !

As far as durability - time will tell. I have only had this for 2 days, but it charged all my stuff with NO ISSUES AT ALL ...



Stay AWAY from CTA Charger- Get This !

All Move controllers have two charging contacts on their bases. They are provided so that you can drop the controller into a charger without lining up the USB port. This product does not use those contacts. Take a look at your Move controller. See those small golden contacts on the bottom? Imagine not having to fiddle around with the controller to get it to line up perfectly with the charging base. Imagine if you could just plonk it into the base and it would align itself. You don't have to imagine anymore! Get just about any Move charger other than this one and your dream can become a reality.

I can't fully review this item, which is why I gave it 3 stars (I didn't want to add or subtract undue stars). I'm just reviewing to post a word of warning: this charging can only charge what is pictured (only 2 Moves and 2 Navigators). The Navigator controller is slightly smaller than the Move, so it's impossible to charge more than 2 Move controllers (though I suppose you could do 4 Navigators). There are other products out there that allow you to charge 4 Navigators OR 4 Moves OR any combination. This is not one of them.



Delivery was great, the product itself was in good shape. I didn't even plug it in once I saw the Moves wouldn't fit, but everything seemed in fine condition. Also, make sure who you're buying the product from as prices can vary greatly even within Amazon.

I really dig the sleek, small, rubbery finish of this charger. However, my two back slots for the playstation move charging died within a month. I normally keep the charger off (it has a nice on/off swtich) and use it as a display stand when not in use and last night I attempted to recharge both move controllers and it wouldn't work. I tried to switch them back and forth and used the PS3 charging cable just to make sure they weren't broken. It's the quad dock. The front two navigation slots will still charge the navigation controller.



New one comes tomorrow, hopefully it won't break.

I was not very sure about buying a charger for my 'move' controllers, given that I could anyway charge it through the standard mini-usb cable. However, the risk there was that i never knew if the controller was fully charged, and over charging is always risky. Most standalone chargers were very costly, specially the ones from Sony. This one serves the purpose well, looks good on the eyes, and with indicative lights telling me its charged, I don't need to worry about overcharging. Excellent price, would recommend any gamer to go for this if you are looking for a charger for your move. Charges two move controllers and two motion controllers at one time.

I just received my charger and would absolutely recommend it to any Move users. It really has all the benefits of a stand alone charger but none of the disadvantages outlined by other charger reviews on Amazon. First, the controllers fit perfectly into the slots. I read a lot of the reviews of other chargers when I was trying to find a well priced, yet functionally stand alone charger. They seemed to complain of bad connections and issues maintaining a full charge, specifically with the Nav controller. The back slots are a perfect fit for the Move controller and the front two are an absolutely perfect fit for the Nav controllers. I wish they were all the same size so I could charge 4 Moves at the same time, but the guarantee of the Nav getting a perfect charge and not risking it falling to the side and becoming unconnected is worth the sacrifice. Besides, the charger gives you a full charge very quickly. I plugged both my Move controllers into the unit as well as a Dualshock controller, and when I can back two hours later, they were all fully charged (who knows if they charged faster but its a million times faster than charging while being connected to the PS3). I actually charged my first Dualshock controller that was only about half charged in about 10 mins (I only have one usb connect cable so I have to charge them one at a time). I will try to update once I drain them next time so I can determine exactly how long they take to fully charge.



I also liked the red/blue charging lights. A full charge changes the ring to blue so you know its finished. Unlike the other chargers who's reviews complained of the lights staying on regardless of whether or not a controller was connected, the rings on this charger actually turn off when nothing is connected. If you like to leave your controllers connected all the time, then there is an off switch you can flip on the back unit should the lights become bothersome. The price is great - $10 less than the official one by Sony that only charges two, not six devices - and it doesn't feel cheap. I was worried that I might have to return it if it was as cheap as some of the other chargers, but I was pleasantly surprised. Get this charger while its still in stock, I had to wait a week before mine shipped and I had preordered it.



Bottom Line - great charger with the benefits your looking for with out the disadvantages your not. - Charger - Usb Charger - Playstation 3 - Ps3 Charger'

Over the last couple of weeks I've bought all three, returned the Canon

and Panasonic. Here's my opinion (again this is mostly opinion, not

fact):



- P300 and S95 are almost the exact same size, LX5 was too big (i.e., too

thick for a pocket)

- P300 and LX5 both have direct video record buttons

- LX5 and S95 both shoot RAW (wasn't a factor for me, but may be for

you)

- All three have great picture quality (1. P300, 2. S95, 3. LX5)

- Two have great video quality, S95 is just OK (1. LX5, 2. P300, 3. S95)



Because I have an SLR for high-quality pictures, I just want a portable

p&s for when I don't feel like carrying an SLR. That factor hurt the

LX5, which I thought was the best camera, just not pocketable.



The LX5 had great video, really fast focusing (for pics and vid), and

strong build quality. It's JPEGs were the worst of the three, but third

best in this class is generally better than 1st place in a lesser class

of cameras. It felt solid. I liked the direct video record button. I

disliked the lens cap.



The S95 never did much for me, it's pics were good but not better than

the P300. It's video was definetly the worst of the three, but again,

solid for a point and shoot. The ring around the lens was cute, but felt

loose to me. The lack of a direct video record button was limiting and I

found the auto pop-up flash annoying (it pushes your finger out of the

way, both other cameras have mechanical flash pop-ups).



The P300 is great. Love the picture quality and video quality. Warning,

the video is jumpy on pans, this camera won't take the place of an HD

video camera, but it's great for a point and shoot. The direct video

button is great too. The lcd screen is beautiful. The camera turns on

and snaps very quickly. Shot to shot is excellent too. Picture quality

is great (again, I'm a JPEG user, if you're all about

RAW-post-processing-for-point-and-shoot-quality-pics you may have a

different experience).



You can slice this opinion a million different ways, all three are

awesome cameras. Pick what the most important factor or two is for you

and decide based on that. For me, the discriminators were size and video

quality (as they all took great pictures).



Update 1:

After using this camera extensively for a week or two I've come to appreciate it more. Some of my recent findings which may or may not be helpful to you the reader:

- Indoor video can take on a soft appearance and the colors can be off under certain lighting conditions in auto mode, however, it appears that manual tweaks in the program/manual modes carry over from photo to video. So you can set the AWB to a better lighting mode in one of the manual modes and simply switch modes as the lighting situation dictates. Outdoor video continues to be outstanding in auto mode.

- The creative modes (black and white, soft, etc.) can also be used for video, again you will need to be in a program/manual mode (P, A, S, M). Of these I do find the black and white to make interesting video depending on what you're shooting.

- The fast motion and slow motion modes for video are quite fun to use (they may not be all that useful, but they're fun).

- The panning motion panorama (easy mode?) combined with the Nikon software if pretty impressive. The stitched assist mode panorama works well too. It's particulary impressive in multiple monitor set ups, I can spread the picture across 3 screens and see an impressive panorama.

- Having no "welcome screen" is the way to go if you want a quick start up.

- The camera does not weigh much, it's a little off-putting at first, but light is good.

- I love being able to decide if the flash should be used by flipping the switch because I usually do not want a flash (fill flash is all I use pretty much) and it's apparent by looking at the camera if the flash is on or off, there's no digging into menus to find out.

- If you're reviewing your work (via HDMI for instance) on the camera or a tv you can press (and hold) the play button instead of power to avoid opening up the lens.

- The battery has provided a long life per charge, I haven't tested it but it may be better than advertised. Two drawbacks: it goes from fully charged to empty without much warning (icon is full, and then it's down a bar for a few minutes, then empty) and you plug the camera in to charge vs putting the battery into a charger (that's a draw back because you can't swap a fresh battery in and charge at the same time, if you buy the separate charger you can do this. I bought both an extra battery and charger to avoid any power outages).

- Applying after effects in the camera works well and the camera automatically copies the original.

- This is a piece of advice that will be obvious to some (ok, it's really for my mom): set the date and time accurately and don't have the date imprinted on your pictures. This info is part of the "meta data" that you can see on any computer. You want an accurate date so you can sort photos later if required and you don't want the date imprinted on the photo because it ruins the picture and is already in the meta data. Nikon COOLPIX P300 12.2 CMOS Digital Camera with 4.2x f/1.8 NIKKOR Wide-Angle Optical Zoom Lens and Full HD 1080p Video (Black)

"Should I buy this camera?" is like asking "Should I buy this car?" The answer to both questions is: It depends on what's most important to you. For me, I was looking for a point-and-shoot that takes good HD video as well as good still photos, and is reasonably small, light and affordable. I already have a DSLR, and wanted a camera to complement that -- one I could slip in a pocket and take to the beach or an evening out without having to worry about it.



I believe other commenters that there are P&S cameras out there that take better photos than the P300, but those models are either considerably larger and heavier, a good deal more expensive (one comment here compared a camera costing $500 with this one at slightly over $300), or the video quality is unacceptable. After a lot of research, the P300 turned out to be the camera that best met my needs.



I've only had this for a couple of days, but here's what I like so far:



* Nice ergonomics. I enjoy holding and using the camera, which isn't something I can say about my previous P&S.

* Large, bright, sharp LCD

* A good mix of manual controls for when I want them and auto settings for when I don't.

* Macro closeups are excellent

* Low-light performance is generally good for a P&S, especially with the fast 1.8 lens.

* I've been pleased so far with my outdoor shots, although I haven't really had a chance to do much with this outside yet because weather's been bad

* The flash only fires when you first pop it up, so it doesn't inadvertently ruin a shot



What I don't like so far:



* White balance in mixed indoor lighting seems worse than average

* As I read in another review, video can be jerky while panning

* Detail in distant objects doesn't look as crisp as in photos I've seen from competitors in its class

* (updated) You will hear motor noise when zooming in and out on video (at least I do)

* (updated) Focus in auto mode is limited to frame center

* (updated) Photos taken in portrait mode don't auto rotate



There are some interesting features such as in-camera HDR and one-shot panoramas I've yet to try. All in all, I'm looking forward to taking this with me when I'm going places where I don't want to take my considerably heavier and bulkier DSLR.



UPDATE: After reading the manual, now I know why I've been less than happy with some of my shots in Auto mode: Auto mode focuses on the center of your frame. If you don't always stick your subject dead center -- and most experienced photographers don't much of the time -- don't use Auto mode. If you have a P300 and are unhappy with its focus and metering, try using the program mode or auto scene selector instead, when you want to "point and shoot" instead of using the manual controls.



UPDATE 2: A few more tests and I'm a bit less happy with the camera. If I could drop this down to 3.5 stars, I would. I really like the ergonomics, the menus, the LCD. Using it is still fun. I've shot a number of comparisons with my old 8 MP Canon SD 850 and the results are mixed. Macros are way better, but that's not what I bought the camera for. I didn't bother comparing video since the P300 HD I'm sure will blow away the SD 850's SD. In other situations it was mixed, with the P300 not always better.



Like all point-and-shoots, this is a compromise and there is going to be a sacrifice in return for weight, size and affordability.



FINAL UPDATE: I took the P300 out for some serious shooting last weekend, including several hours with my friend and her new Canon S95. We tried shooting several of the same scenes (although P300 zooms out a bit wider and S95 has a bit more of a telephoto, so it often wasn't exact). I was happy with the vast majority of the P300 photos. There were some where the S95 versions were better, especially when it came to detail in the photos. But without comparing, I was pleased with the majority of photos I shot with the P300. The difference didn't seem all that massive except for a couple, and that might have been because I didn't select the best mode.



On the other hand, the P300 video was quite a bit better than the S95 video, if that matters to you. It does to me. I shot a video at an indoor party last night and was very happy with the way it came out. I didn't hear any motor noise when zooming in and out in what was a pretty loud room.



Ergonomics: I enjoyed using (and carrying) the P300 more than the S95. It's slightly lighter. I like the Nikon dials and menu setup more than Canon's -- that's just personal preference, but I've never particularly cared for the menu setup on my old Canon P&S either. I also found the mode selector dial somewhat hard to turn on the S95 compared with the P300.



Bottom line: I'm using this to post photos on the Web and occasionally make 4x6 prints, and also to shoot video from time to time. If I was looking for a primary camera to shoot serious still photos -- that is, if I didn't also have my DSLR -- I'd likely pay more and go with the S95. But as a casual supplement to a DSLR, I recommend the P300. - Nikon Coolpix'

Hand saws are still useful, but have problems.



Wooden handles crack, split, and break.



Saws are sharp and difficult to carry around. Haven't found any saw scabbards yet.



I thought this "system" with one great handle and interchangeable blades would be a solution.



A big plus was the promised protective case.



The good news is the handle and interface is great.



The bad news is:



1. There is no protective case



2. I cannot find anyone selling the other 7 blades. BTW the blades aren't marked as to what they are (obvious with 2 blades; more difficult with 9).

Iphone 3g Screen Protector

Visit Store Now !!

After spending $15 for a package of crystal film covers at the Apple store (I peeled an old, scratched one off the cover, went to use the spare that was included only to find that it had gathered dust and lint under the cover) and ruining the one screen protector that came with my new Speck Candyshell case (it had a piece of lint underneath that caused it to bubble), I figured I would take a chance on these screen protectors as I knew I didn't need anything fancy, just something to keep my keys from scratching my screen in my purse.



It was a great decision. Not only are they cheap, there are 5 of them. They are all packaged individually in their own plastic sleeve (no dust/lint collection from saving them in your desk!) and they all come with a cleaning cloth. I was initially confused by the double layer covers that you peel off the actual screen, but I actually prefer this to a regular screen protector that you peel from the backing only and apply.



I watched a great YouTube video showing you how to apply these types of screen protectors that have the dual backings. If you peel away the first layer as you apply the cover (this way your fingers do not ever have to touch the actual protector since you are touching the backing) and use a credit card to smooth out bubbles as you go, it comes out great. Then you peel off the top layer and it's perfect.



I am really glad I searched for these. Great value for what you get. Also, their customer service is great. Very responsive. 5-Pack Premium Reusable LCD Screen Protector with Lint Cleaning Cloth for Apple iPhone 3G 8GB 16GB [Accessory Export Packaging]

I've never left a review before, but wow! These are incredible! In the three months that I've had my iPhone, I've gone through 2 $24 screen protectors from Best Buy. (They assured me they were top of the line.) After that, I purchased some case mate screen protectors from Wal-Mart. There were three in the pack, and all three had flaws. Some little dot of something or other that prevented the cover from going on smoothly. I finally resorted to one of these that I'd gotten as a free gift from another purchase, and they're AWESOME! No flaws, easy to apply, perfect non-gummy protection. I love them!

Just received these, and was pleasantly surprised. I've worked with one other type of screen protector (the ones you have to cut out yourself), but don't consider myself an expert by any means.



As others have posted, the product comes as 5 separately-packaged screen protectors. I've only opened one so far, and it contained the screen protector and a piece of cloth. The cloth appears useless, so I threw it away.



The screen protector has protective film on both sides, and a tab affixed to each film, labeled 1 and 2. You simply peel off film #1, then apply the screen protector to your iPhone, then peel off film #2. Again, I'm not an expert by any means, but it worked perfectly for me on the first try. Here's what I did:



- First, I cleaned my iPhone screen completely, using the cloth that came with my phone.

- I positioned the phone horizontally on a table in front if me, so that the top of the phone was on my left, and the bottom of the phone on my right.

- I peeled off film #1, and holding it lightly by the edges with both hands, aligned the top of the film with the top of the phone, without letting it actually touch the screen yet

- Then I started with the top of the phone (my left hand), and set the first inch or so of the film down onto the phone, while keeping the rest of the protector off the surface with my right hand.

- I rubbed the bubbles out of the top section using my left hand, and then lifted my right hand up slightly and brought it towards my left a little. This curved the screen protector, and I was able to then lay it down on the phone moving slowly towards the bottom of the phone in a smooth, even manner.



Hope that makes sense, but I think the key was having the protector bend a little so that it laid down uniformly from side to side. When I was done, I just rubbed a few bubbles out of the very bottom of the phone and it was nearly perfect.



I don't see any of the rainbow effect mentioned by another reviewer, and this protector doesn't interfere with my case (CaseCrown) because my case covers the top edges of the phone. So, overall very satisfied with the protector, and should get a lot of mileage out of them since I have 4 more to use.



P.S. Those who complained about bits of glue being left behind may have tried to remove the tab from the outer film, when in fact you are supposed to remove the entire sheet of protective film using the tab. This could also explain the rainbow effect some have seen, if they inadvertently left the top layer of protective film on the screen protector.

Because you will have to try several times and waste couple protectors before having it on perfectly. The quality of the 5 protectors is not the same. The first one I tried gave me lots of air bubbles. The second protector itself is OK, but the small tab on the protector was hard to remove. It left a very visible glue goo on it. I finally had some luck with the third one, very few bubble, and small glue goo mark. The positive side is that they are so less expensive, as long as one of those protectors is good, you are OK.'

With four colors included, this is great for boys or girls. My daughter likes it alot. It's very versatile size wise. My daughter is 7, she had the disney princess toddler size headphones, but they wore out about the time she outgrew them, and she likes the pink M&M covers (the four covers are plastic and interchangable, snapping on easily and staying on well). She's had this set for a month and they work great with her mp3 player, cyberpocket, and computer. You can get matching earbuds, but earbuds are not a good idea for kids as they can lead to ear infections. Maxell M&M Kids Safe 4 in1 Headphones

Got this for my 6 year old. It bends in four spots to prevent breaking and it's proven itself. The plastic M&M covers go on easily for him and stay on. The volume is also limited so that he can't raise it too high which receives huge points in my book! Worth the purchase.

I bought these for my daughter for Christmas and the colored m&m changeable covers don't stay on. I had to super glue them on so she is stuck with only one color. Other than that, they are just cheap headphones...not worth paying whatever I paid for them (I think around $13)

I had high hopes for these headphones. We got two pairs for our daughters to use with their Leapsters. While they worked well in the house, the volume control made it impossible for them to hear their devices in the car. I wish they worked better, or that the volume control could be disabled, because it is hard to find cute headphones for kids. - Headphones - Childrens Earphones - Kids Headphones - Child Headphone'

Just got my Veebeam box this week and this is pretty addictive I must say. Install is pretty simple with the main box going into the TV (HDMI in my case) and you can even hook it up to your audio system if you have one. On the PC side, you just need to install a client. The use case is then pretty awesome as all you need to do is put the dongle to your PC and turn on your TV. The PC will immidiatly start replicating wirelessly to your TV with a bit a wireless USB magic...



The really cool thing is that you have a play mode where you can select a movie file from you laptop and play it wirelessly onto your TV while you can still do emails or else on the laptop!



I must say I was initially skeptical about the video quality but after trying it, I am sold. I have tried some 720p files of action movie and it feels like watching a blu-ray on my TV eventhough the signal is in fact wirelessly transmitted from my laptop onto the TV set. I have tried streaming HD over wifi and it's a real pain... this solves it!



Bottom line: If you have lots of movies / TV series saved on our laptop or external HD and you don't want to crawl under your TV set to connect an HDMI or else... This is the product for you. Veebeam HD | Wireless PC to TV link | 1080p

I simply can't believe how amazing Veebeam is. I have been long waiting a day where I can stream an HD signal (with sound!) wirelessly from my computer to my TV with ease. That day has now come. This is truly a great product. There is virtually no setup required at all. The install is amazingly simple, and the best part is that whenever you want to stream to the Veebeam box you just plug in the usb to your computer and it does all the work for you. Veebeam couldn't be made better at this point it is simply amazing.

First off, this product is truly remarkable as well as others of its kind that do the same thing. The ease of setup is remarkably easy. You have two options, desktop view and player view. I really wanted to have an extended desktop to play my movies and still work. Instead, this plays off of its own player view. Basically, you continue working on your desktop as you would, and the movie that you player with the Veebeam player shows up on the TV. Honestly, in my opinion, this is an awesome and much better feature than what I could ask for with extended desktop. My only complaint is that it takes Blu-Ray rips and plays them sharp but not full quality. The standard definition videos are not as sharp as they typically are. Let's face it though, standard definition isn't really that sharp as it is though. The range is quite impressive though. It does need to be within line of sight. It does work perfect in my setup where I use this on my laptop transmitting to my TV in my bedroom. No lag what so ever. Bottom line, being able to do what it does is, like I said, is remarkable in its own. The technology is growing and before too long, there will be no quality loss with future products. In fact, I have heard rumors of a wireless HDMI adapter. Very early stages of course so don't get too excited. If you can stand to sacrifice a little bit of video quality, this product is beyond cool. I can't wait to see what we are in store for after this.

I purchased v beem on the recommedation of my son-in-law. The installation took about 10 minutes. After that I was up and running. It's great No problems with the connection from the PC to the Tv. There are times when my wife and i forget we're watching an interent stream and have to remember to turn off from the computer. It's great to catch the shows you miss and really good with Netflix. With all that's accessible online there's almost no need for a DVR

This worked perfectly on a new Dell laptop and an older Dell laptop, both running Windows 7, no manual adjustments needed. Just for the heck of it I also tried it on an old, very small Sony Vaio running XP and it also worked fine except for manually adjusting the screen size on the TV. Picture quality and sound are great. I haven't found anything wrong with the VeeBeam as it all works perfectly and just as advertised so I'm completely satisfied and would highly recommend it. I did notice that the price has gone up since I bought it on Amazon two weeks ago.

I HAVE THIS FOR A MONTH NOW AND IT WORKS GREAT. I BOUGHT MY VIZIO 47 INCH AND THIS VEEBEAM HD WIRELESS PC TO TV.

PS... DONT FORGET TO BUY THE VEEBEAM HD CABLE BECAUSE IT DOESNT COME WITH ONE IT DOES COME WITH A VCR CABLE BUT IF YOU HAVE HDMI YOU WANT TO USE A HDMI CABLE AND THE CABLE IS EXCELLENT TOO. NOW...MY ONLY PROBLEM IS THIS AND ITS NOT A BIG THING BUT I WAS HOPING TO GET AWAY WITH NOT HAVING TO BUY ANOTHER VEEBEAM FOR ANOTHER TV IN ANOTHER ROOM. HERES WHAT HAPPENED, I HOOKED UP MY 47 INCH HDMI CONNECTION AND IT WORKS EXCELLENT, SO THEN I WANTED TO HOOK UP ANOTHER TV IN ANOTHER ROOM BECAUSE THE VEEBEAM HAS THE ABILITY TO USE VCR CABLES OR HDMI. SO I FIGURED ID USE VCR CABLES FOR THE OTHER TV AND HDMI FOR MY 47 INCH BUT VEEBEAM IS TO SMART TO LET THAT HAPPEN AT THE SAME TIME, LOL. SO FOR NOW TILL I GET MORE VEEBEAM MONEY I JUST SWITCH THE CABLES WHEN I GO TO THE BEDROOM TO WATCH THE OTHER TV. THATS JUST ME IM CHEAP, LOL.

BUY THIS I RECOMMEND IT HIGHLY IT WORKS GREAT, NO PROBLEMS SO FAR AT ALL. OH ONE THING I REMEMBER NOW IS THAT YOU CANT SEE YOUR MOUSE ON THE TV YOU CAN SEE IT ON YOUR LAPTOP BUT NOT ON THE TV, I DONT KNOW WHY, IF SOMEONE DOES LET ME KNOW MAYBE I HAVE SOMETHING SET UP WRONG ON MY LAPTOP PLEASE LET ME KNOW THANK YOU.
