Sabrent USB-DSC5 Serial ATA or IDE 2.5-/ 3.5-Inch to USB 2.0 Cable Converter Ada

This works, but is a hassle to set up and more than a little cumbersome. I think I'd try and find something a little easier to use the next time. read more..

6 Inch Fully Rated USB Extension Cable A-a

Exactly as advertised and just what I needed. The cables were fine. Unfortunately, shipping cost 3 X the cost of the items, $5.94 shipping for $2.00 worth of cables, for what probably cost $2.50, tops, for postage and jiffy bag. read more..

Microsoft Lifecam VX-1000

Couldn't get this to work properly on Ubuntu 8.04. Also got the QuickCam Connect which didn't work either. Finally got the QuickCam Messenger which worked including the microphone out of the box. read more..

Onkyo A-9555 Integrated Digital Stereo Amplifier (Black)

I've been listening to this amp for a couple of weeks now and it is a very good amp. I wish I could give it 3.5 stars as I like it, but it isn't great. Don't get me wrong, it is much better than 90% of AV receivers out there, but if you're looking for true audiophile sound, this amp won't quite get you there, as some professional reviews may easily lead one to believe.

Good points: read more..

Linksys WRT610N Simultaneous Dual-N Band Wireless Router

I had purchased this router to upgrade from a Linksys Vonage wireless router (Wireless G). I was having trouble in streaming content over my network using a PS3. I also had a external 500GB hard drive (Iomega) which i thought would be cool to be able to connect to the router directly than connect to my PC and then share. I also purchased a Dlink DAP 1522 Accesspoint/ bridge to utilize the N speeds read more..

Epson Stylus R2400 Photo Printer

On a good day, this printer can produce brilliant prints with excellent image quality.

On a bad day, plan to spend HOURS and LOTS of ink dealing with clogged heads, paper feed problems, and driver issues.

Image quality is 5 stars, reliability is 1 star. read more..

Fang Gamepad by Ideazon

If this had lighted keys it would be perfect. Until then, I'm sticking with the Merc Stealth Illuminated gaming keyboard. read more..

HP C7280 Photosmart All-in-One Printer (CC567A#ABA)

For the most part I really like the printer. It does everything as advertised and does it well. Photo prints are really nice. It is not the fastest but for a home user it is more than adequate. Setup on our wireless network was easy. However, in the 2 months that I have had it I have spent about 6 hours in on-line chats with the HP tech folks. Shortly after installing it I experienced run aw read more..

Monster iFreePlay Cordless Headphones for iPod shuffle 2G (Silver/ Black)

Love the idea of the wireless shuffle headphones! Earbuds don't stay in my ears, and other headphone cords tend to be too long for easy portability. These cordless headphones were great for walking/running/lawn mowing activities for about a month, but then the center hinge broke, rendering them useless. As others have commented, they felt too big for my (female) head and there was no way to adju read more..

AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core 5000+ 2.6 GHz Processor with 1024KB L2 Cache and 64-W

[...]

You can buy this if:
1. You are an AMD fan and want only an AMD processor
2. You are specifically building an AMD system or that you are upgrading a older AMD system
3. Looking for the overclocking feature at a lower price point
Otherwise, the current crop of Intel processors (core 2 duo or quad core) outdo in terms of performance as well as power usage. read more..

Audio-Technica ATH-ANC7 QuietPoint Active Noise-Cancelling Headphones

I received them today and instantly noticed strong discomfort; no matter how I adjusted them, I feel pressure on my ears and also from the top band. So, I walked to BestBuy, and after some time at Bose kiosk I walked away with Bose Around-Ear "triport" type headphones. Same price as this Audio-Technica, but much more comfortable, and sound wise similar or better. I can barely feel having Bose head read more..

V-MODA Bass Freq Earbuds - Bling Bling Black

These are amazing headphones for their price. To my knowledge their wires hold up for at least a year, but at almost exactly a year the sound stops out of the right earpiece. This is a big problem. Sure they replace it for free, but its a 1 month process from sending it back to recieving the new ones. Luckily I have an old torn up pair of sony fontopias laying around. Their Customor service i read more..

Turbo Charge iTurbo Portable Reusable iPod Charger- IP140

Well, what can you expect when you buy something like this? It's a bit of a rinky-dink device, but it does it's job, sort of. It does get quite hot when a battery is in it being drained to your iPod. For camping, this could be a handy little item.

After my iPod died, I hooked this little guy up and burned through about 3 batteries (iPod NOT in use while charging) and got about 50% of read more..

HP LaserJet P2015 Printer (CB366A#ABA)

Initially the print was way too light. Apparently this is a known problem. As HP will tell you, you simply have to print a few hundred sheets, and the print darkens up. Kinda lame, especially as it uses about 10% of the life of the expensive toner cartridge.

After that, it worked very nicely for quite some, almost a year. Then one day the "paper jam" light came on. I v read more..

Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Quad-Core Processor, 2.40 GHz, 8M L2 Cache, LGA 775

Hi,

The product shipped quickly and I had no issues with the CPU. The fan however was broken and did not register with the motherboard. Unfortunately, the $2 fan could not be replaced without shipping the entire package back. It just wasn't worth the cost and put me out for about a week until I could purchase another fan.

Overall, the company that I bought from was gr read more..

Cables To Go - 26686 - 3M (9.8ft) USB A Male to A Female Extension Cable (White)

It gets the job done, but the one I received is definitely not white which was kind of a big disappointment. It's closer to that old grey/yellow color that they used to make cases and CRT monitors out of; very ugly.

5/5 for function

Sennheiser CX300-S Earbuds (Silver)

Tried all three sizes of the interchangeable earbud sleeves, the smallest tend to work for me because they sit on the opening of my ear canal rather than hanging on loosely on the inner rimming of the antitragus like the large ones. The middle interchangeable earbud sleeves are too big for the ear canal and too small to hang on the antitragus, but hey, the bass is good. I like drum and bass or roc read more..

Targus DMC111 Digital Memory Card Case - Black (Koskin)

I purchased 2 of these to hold my many CF cards. The biggest problem I've seen is that the pockets are tight. Some of my CF cards a thicker than my other ones, and it takes a bit of effort to get them in the pockets. Other than that, they are very helpful when I'm photographing a wedding, because I can hook them to my belt loop, and feel safe knowing they are on my person at all times. read more..

Sandisk 4GB Secure Digital SD HC Memory Card (SDSDB-4096, BULK, No Reader)

APC BE550R 550VA Back-UPS ES 8-Outlet Battery Backup System

I have two APC units and one CyberPower unit - all the 6 outlet / half with battery power, protecting my computer and phone, and primarily the projection TV (so in case of a power outage I have time to turn off the projection lamp and let the fan cool it down).

I apparently have fluctuating power as well as brown- and black-outs, and after a couple of years the units started clicking read more..

UNIDEN BC-246T Compact Hand Held Scanner

For me, I wanted to be able to program some of my local frequencies and listen. It takes a bit more than this. If you have a chance, review the owners manual to different scanners before you buy. There are a number of .pdf files out there that will allow you to do this. I have never owned a scanner before and that knowledge may have led me to a a different model. Since I'm new to this arena, under read more..

Garmin MapSource US TOPO CD-ROM for Garmin GPS Units, 24K East National Parks (0

Sony BDP-S350 1080p Blu-ray Disc Player

I've had this player a little over 2 weeks, and it's my first Blu-Ray player. That being said, the picture is amazing, and I was impressed with the start-up speed. (I read many reviews, and have been waiting to get a BD player, so had expected a long wait.) Anyway...The thing won't respond to the remote anymore! I don't know if it's a lemon, or if there is some problem with the remote sensor on th read more..

Garmin GSC 10 Speed Cadence Sensor for Edge and Forerunner Series (010-10644-00)

The mounting process for the cadence sensor is fairly weak when you consider composite/carbon fiber chainstays and tapered tubes. The zip-ties aren't tight enough to keep the unit from sliding one way or the other and it eventually moves too far away from the magnets. Strong double-stick or industrial Velcro would be a better mount. read more..

Boston Acoustics Horizon Duo-I Clock Radio w/ iPod Dock (Mist)

Two days out of the box proved too much for this unit.
The volume control lock up at about mid level and would not go beyond that (22 on the units scale). I immediately wrap up the unit and return the darn thing. Before this mis-fire the sound and qulity of the product was impressive. I just got a bad pick or are there more out there? I did not want to find out and did not request a replacem read more..

Logitech Cordless TrackMan Wheel

After being a trackball user for many years I could not get used to using a standard mouse with my new laptop.
When I saw that a wireless trackball was available I ordered it.
I made the mistake of assuming the USB reciever would be the typical flash drive size. No Way. The reciever is a piece of machinery the size of the mouse itself on the end of a six foot cord. Very clunky to use w read more..

V-MODA Bass Freq Earbuds - Hot Pink

I bought these earphones for jogging, after my run-of-the-mill Ipod earphones wore out. At first, I thought I had received the wrong earphones: tinny sound, no detectable additional bass. I considered returning them, but as I fiddled with them, I realized I had to push the bud well into my ear canal to get the full effect; which does provide good bass and decent sound. The "noise cancellation" is read more..
