I must say, it's a great tablet for daily use! It has quite a high storage capacity. The actual con is that the pen damages the screen. I have updated it to android 3.2 and it's performing really well. Unlike Samsung devices you don't need Kies (or whatever) to get an android update. I got the complete package with USB-cable, charger, pen and a bit more for 230 euros. Which is extremely decent for a fast tablet!
Can i ask somthing, i bought this headset couple hours ago.. i plugged in everything and i got my gamesound left and the chat sound in both 'speakers' off the headset, How the hell can i change this ? or is my headset broke ? :s
Like most, I had the 500 watt cheapo that came with a $40 box/case, and used this until I could afford to upgrade. $79.99 is a bargain for this supply, read all the reviews around the net. As for installation, very easy, a 5 year old could do it. Really! You only need turn the computer off, pull the plug from the existing power supply, undo the 4 screws on the back while making sure to brace or hold the power supply when unscrewing the last screw so it doesn't fall down in the box, and hit something, like your motherboard! lol Sit the supply aside wherever convienient, and install the Corsair, but do not plug it in yet. Now simply attach wire for wire starting at the motherboard or wherever you wish, copying the existing wire layout. Insert the plug, flip the switch, turn on computer, your done. Took me longer to find the damn black screw I dropped than it did to install the supply, very easy. Make sure to wear an anti static wrist band or take a chance like I do when building all my computers, simply touch the case or some metal, and discharge yourself, should be good enough for the length of most builds, just tousch the case before touching each component. As a side note, the wires may be a tad confusing to some, but read the instructions, and you'll be fine. The 2 motherboard connectors are meant to work with older, and current equipment so are different in that on old boards you need a 24 pin, and a 4 pin. This supply has both, but the 24 pin also works on a 20 pin slot by simply not using the 4 pins on the end, same for the 4 pin conector, it is an 8 pin on this supply, but you simply use the 4 pins needed, and it will only fit one way so no chance of doing it wrong. This leaves the other four pins overhanging the 4 pin plug, hence not being used in your build, but allowing for upgrades, and we all want those. Great supply, only the user who has 5 HD's, 5 CD-Roms, numerous other peripherals etc. would need more power than this delivers. Great supply, of course I just installed it 3 days ago, but 3 year warranty, and Corsair name, I am set for at least 3 years. Corsair TX650 watt is an option also, and it has a 5 year warranty, probably better parts, but no blue lights, and another $20. Happy computing
As soon as I installed the scanner my Adobe Photoshop stopped working. I re-installed Photoshop without success. Has anyone else had this problem? I need both scanner and Photoshop, can't do without any of them... :-(
Well honestly THANK GOD I didn't look at these reviews prior to getting my refurbish WRT310 as with the WRT160 installation was EASY and any issues I had were easily fixed..if you see a decrease in speed check speedtest net if true then go to 192.168.1.1(basic setup screen) and under administration disable UPnp...otherwise it's fabulous it nice getting 1 gig thou most web places aren't 1 gig ready yet(most popular download upload places are I/E music/videos)...but I notice a speed increase regardless...I USE IT FOR A Wii,IPHONE 3GS AND 4, Satellite box, laptop, DS and DSi some from different levels and strong signal while still in basement....remember people when using Wifi signal depending where you place device signal will vary but on my 2nd floor I still get on my iphone 3GS and 4 an average of 15meg download/3/4 upload...when buying any Wifi router only chose one that you know works with all your devices..I give it 5 stars!
I connected a m1212nf via USb to a netbook running Windows 7 starter. I installed the software to scan and works 100%. If you switch the netbook off and on again the software to scan is not available. Don't know what to do???
I have set up many different printers in my time and this printer is the most difficult of all. You plug the USB cable in and the printer identifies itself as a CD so that you can install the software from the printer. That does not work. So you go to HP.com and download the drivers from there. It does not matter which driver you download, they don't work either. The only installation that I have been able to get this thing to print a test page from is the Full Install. But then as soon as you reboot the computer, that insatllation is lost because the printer comes back into Vista as a CD again. Don't waste your money on this poc.
Avoid this, after about 2 months, the port my modem plugs into would lock up, i.e. the network light would stay on solid, even after unplugging the modem from the switch, the light would stay on as if there was a connection, i need to unplug the switch for 5 mins and plug it back in, its as if the switch is overheating. Haven't called netgear as of yet, as i cant remember which online store i bought the @#$%@#$ thing from, so will have to chase that up. After reading the stories and i have the same problem, this will be the last netgear product i will purchase, very dissapointed.
Just got one of these and it's quite nice. It's got a good look, it's small, and it copies quite fast through Firewire 800. Matches my Macbook Pro perfectly.
Great laptop! Very easy to set up. Runs pretty fast. I have had it for about 2 weeks and i love it. I'd recommend this laptop to ANYONE. Battery life is good if you have the screen down to level 1. But if it's all the way up the battery runs down quick! [Bought this laptop from Office Depot]
The ad supported traffic is a deal killer for me. The ads show up every few minutes, a lot more than the free traffic service that comes with other units. The placement of the ad on the home screen blocks the info bar on the top of the screen and does not go away when you move. You are forced to press on the ad and it takes you the ads destination. I will not pay $60.00 a year to view ads. A real mistake on Garmin’s part. I think this will be the demise of the nulink service if they don’t remove the ads. I know mine is being returned. http://www.gizmos360.com/garmin-nuvi-1690.html
I bought this device in the 2TB version. As a hard drive it is good but as a media player it is horrible. DON'T BUY IT! The graphical User Interface (GUI) for video and music are fine but photos gets a completely different GUI. Why? It is a bunch of grey boxes that are named only for the current one selected. If you have a large collection as I do with photos separtaed into different folders, the interface is useless. I complained and try to return the box but they wouldn't take it back. Please don't be fooled as I was. This is a really bad device!
seems an excellent system with awesome sound, however i seem to have a problem, when playing music or blu ray, the skip, rewind, eject, pause light flashes on the touch control system like it has juse been touched and disturbes my viewing.......oh and no one pressed it!! nor am i sat on the remote....it is getting very annoying!! Any ideas people??
I also was extremely disappointed that it only works with itunes and not other music apps on the iphone! This should have been stated somewhere so that people know it before purchase. It just shuts off! Not cool Monster.
Unfortunately, we waited for our AV guy to set up our Onkyo TX-SR707 receiver/home theater system, and missed the 30 day return policy through JR. This unit worked for about a 1/2 hour then crapped out. No sound from the new system. Shut everything down and it came back on and worked for 5 mins, then out again for good! It's been in the repair shop for 3 weeks and waiting now 2-3 weeks more for a new HDMI board. I'm pissed. When I was researching it, I couldn't find any bad feed, however now just type in HDMI board and Onkyo for mountains of bad press! I wouldn't buy for sure.
I have the same issue now on pair 2 and so careful but yet they are cracking in the same place. Soon they will break off again just like everyone has said. They sound great but wont last no matter how careful you are. Is no wonder they are made for best buy >< Total junk!
To everyone who knows nothing about hard drives and is writing bad reviews:
Hard drive manufacturers cheat you on space. Not just Western Digital, but every company who sells hard drives. This is why you don't see every single megabyte that you should. It's not because of the software WD includes, that is all in the firmware of the drive (which is also why it can't be removed).
I'll overview on the entire hard drive situation. Everybody should know that a kilobyte is 1024 bytes. And everyone should know a megabyte is 1024 kilobytes. And the same goes for terabytes.
But hard drive companies don't use standard units for size, they use the metric system. So a kilobyte is 1000 bytes, a megabyte is 1000 kilobytes and so on.
This is why you don't see the full size, because the company sells you a drive, in this case 1TB, but their version of a terabyte is not the same as what your operating system thinks, so it shows less.
With a drive this size, there is a little over a 7% loss of storage space due to this technique. And you also have to factor in the space lost due to formatting.
I'm tired of people leaving bad reviews, just because of their lack of information. This is an amazing hard drive. It was the first pocket 1TB drive, and it still remains the smallest 1TB drive on the market.
The only flaw in this drive is the USB cable, which does not fit snugly like it should. However, WD has since fixed this problem a while ago, and all new models ship with a new cable.
WD SmartWare can hardly be considered a flaw. It's hideable. So stop complaining and hide it already.
And WD customer support? Excellent. Just tell them your USB cable doesn't fit, give them your address, and they'll have a new one at your door in a week. Broke the drive? Send it back and get a brand new one in two weeks.
Western Digital remains and most likely will remain the best solution for storage, whether portable, external, or internal. If you have any reason to say otherwise, email me at steffwiz at me dot com.
I bought these Tritton AX180 headphones Feb 5, 2010 and they broke just above the earpiece Mar 18, 2010. Less than 2 months! I was careful about handling them because I read about this complaint AFTER I bought them.
I have received an RMA # to ship them back for replacement but I DO NOT recommend these headphones and am going to see about returning them to switch to something else.
Please do not think that you can handle these carefully enough to avoid breaking them. There is a flaw in the construction. Once they snap (and they will) an earpiece will hang limply and dangle against your cheek.
Three weeks into ownership the left and right click buttons gave way. It's basically a large screen netbook with an optical drive but without a webcam. You'll get what you pay for. A cheap poorly built laptop.
I just love creative webcam! it's one of the best ones and if you want to get it but you are not having enough cash you can always go to http://www.ezwingame.com/ and get is for free! :)
I got this laptop at BestBuy for $330 and it works well. I like the colors better than most shiney black laptops today that show every finger print and spec of dust. Also, the bezel arround the disply is like textured/dimpled flat black which doesn't reflect glare or show prints. The keys are also simular flat black. The only two things I don't like is the sound is a tad weak and the SD card slot doesn't have that spring loaded click into place tactile feedback, instead it just sorta bottoms out without any indication other than whatever pops up to let you know it is in place. Both minor issues for me so much so that I almost bought another one because it runs linux very well. Everything works under linux with this laptop including the wifi and vga dual monitor output.
Office Depot sells the next two models up from this one that includes dialup modem with or without additional ram. Model: L455-S5980 and L455-S5989 I have no information about linux support for the dialup modem but everything else should work in linux.
