Just what I needed when I needed to rewire my house.
This works beautifully and would definitely buy it again. I also have a few of the 5 port of the same style.
It's too bad, you really only get 7 useable ports, as if you use uplink, one of the ports must be used for that.. but it's still more than enough.

If you're like me, and like to shoot photos and video, this is the camera for you. To be able to grab one camera for vacations, trips, or gigs...that's cool. You can read all the specs and details about this camera online (there's always somebody that dosen't like something about it), but I just want to say that once you have the camera in your hands and you learn how to use it, it's truely a great camera!
Go get one man! Especially now that Best Buy is offering 18 months with no finance charges...

As a previous D70 owner I can say the D90 is quite an upgrade. The increased continuous shooting and incredible low light/high ISO performance is really what impressed me the most. Where the D70 was getting noisy at ISO 800 (although still acceptable due to Nikon's approach to noise reduction) I find the D90 producing excellent ISO 3200 images when exposed properly. I really like the LCD compared to the lower end Nikon's it makes it so much easier to see if you have an out of focus photo or not. The video feature is more of a gimmick to me. The quality is decent and at 24fprs it looks cinematic I guess but I think a camcorder that can auto-focus will still do a much better job overall. WHere the D90 won't disappoint is image quality, there are plenty of customization settings to play with. I mainly shoot .nef and process later on the pc but you can customize this camera to produce very nice images right out of the camera with very little work. I am very pleased with the build quality of

I bought this with my Samsung LED tv and I am blown away! I have never seen a Blu-ray movie before this and I must say its better then the HYPE that was put out. The sound even sounds better! I can instantly download from net flix and blockbuster both are awesome! THIS IS A MUST HAVE if you have a HD TV!

The picture is right up there with the best LCDs available. This TV is very comparable to the 52" Samsung. I took it home and instantly felt good about the purchase, you cannot beat the quality of this TV for the price. Sure, I could have spent $200 more and got a Samsung that had a slightly better picture. But honestly, you could barely tell the difference after staring at both screens in the store for 10 minutes. Great TV, great picture, great price.

Really wasn't in the market for a Blue Ray but have been keeping an eye on them. Well my DVD player quit on my, so figured it was time. Did some research and found some very good reviews on this one. Price was right and so far I've been extremely happy with it. Awesome picture quality, and I'm running only a 720P set right now. Really wasn't sure how much improvement I'd see but it's quite noticeable. Sound seems improved too, and on top of that, my regular DVD's definitely look better somehow. Even my kids noticed it, and I hadn't even said anything...lol. Good player for a pretty decent price.

Bought Samsung BP-1600 from Best Buy two weeks ago. Same price as Amazon and saved me the waiting time for shipping. So far so good. Play both Blue-ray and regular DVD movies. Uploading time varies from a few seconds to 10 seconds maybe. Read a lot of review complaining the firmware update causing the player not functioning properly. Well, updated mine this morning and did not encounter any issue. I used Powerline adapter to connect the unit to internet via a ethernet cable. The downloading process took approximately 15 minutes and the whole updating process maybe 20 minutes. I tried both Blue-ray and regular DVD afterwards and did not have any functional problem with the player. Registered for NetFlix right away and now I am watching a movie instantly on my TV via BP-1600. Good picture quality. The only downside I experienced so far is the synchronization of my tv remote and the blue-ray player remote, both of which are from Samsung. Not sure it's because of my Fios TV DVR.

Nice clock radio, nice concept. Great screen for video playback. But suffers from another Sony engineering mis-step. This unit does NOT support video playback from the 3rd generastion iPod Touch (current generation as of Fall 2009). I thought something was wrong with my unit as I could not get video to play with my 3rd Gen Touch. Called Sony...they said video playback from 3rd gen Touch does NOT WORK and is NOT supported. Video from my iPhone 3G-S worked fine though. and video from my older 2nd gen Touch worked fine too. What was Sony thinking???
If you have a 3rd gen iPod Touch don't buy this and expect to play your videos on the screen.

I was hesitant to write a review since I am new at using a GOOD camera, I had a point and shoot but wasn't happy with the action pictures, Wow what a difference, the pictures are clear, and it's so easy to get good shots, I am happy and learning daily new things on the camera and new ways to get better shots. the one thing I didn't care for was the weight,but I am getting used to that and the quality of the pictures are sure worth it.

This unit is wonderful when it works, however..... Despite software upgrades being installed, it has a propensity to lock up. It started shortly after purchase, but was very intermittant, and seemed to get better with software upgrades - although may have been perception. Now it is much worse. When it does lockup, it will not play or eject your disc. The only soution appears to be to go away for an hour, and then you may get your disc back. When in the "lockup" mode, it will shut off, and turn on. When you select play or eject it displays the command, but does nothing. This is too bad, as when it works, it does well. Netflix was great (subject to their/cable co) bandwidth limitations; upscaling of DVDs was respectable, although not great; and overall it was an enjoyable unit. The biggest issue is that Samsung only offers a 90 labor warranty - after that you pay shipping both ways and as well as labor. This is acceptable for a $50 Walmart unit, but not for something that a full

Bought this Blu-Ray player to replace an older one that had failed. Plugged into my Samsung TV with HDMI and went through the setup. Ended up with 3 firmware upgrades in 3 weeks which could be considered a plus, but in my case the 3rd update broke Pandora (causing it to freeze up quite often).
Also many of the other features didn't quite work as they should, for instance the player would not stay in 1080p mode (keeps dropping to 1080i), playing standard DVD's with 6.1 or 7.1 get down sampled unless you change some setting within the player, but with those settings you loose out on the 6.1 audio on blu-rays...My old Sony handled this perfectly..
The movie BOLT would pause every 15-20 minutes for 10 seconds then audio would get out of sync. Also the slightest mark on a Blu ray will cause this player to freeze and at one point lock up completely also had many issues like this with multiple discs from Netflix.
Although I'm a fan of Samsung products, this player is going back

I went through two of these trying to get a good one.
Both were complete junk and should never be on the store floor.
The menu screen video would intermittently cut in and out, causing a huge crash of sound. Movies would also drop out intermittently with the latest firmware.
Tried two players with known working cables and Samsung TV.
Firmware update process takes 22 minutes even with a 6 mbps internet connection. WOW!
Don't buy this product no matter what the price.

I couldn't take it anymore, I ripped it out of my entertainment center and stomped on it. I know I can't take it back now but it was worth the $200 to watch it be destroyed by my feet.
Please don't make the same mistake I did, it's a horrible product and should not be sold.

OK ... so there's really nothing bad about the system itself. It looks great, sounds great, works great. I'm an IT guy so I had no problem setting up the wireless connection. Having read previous reviews .. yes, I could see how it would be a little difficult for those not too familiar with all the "ins and outs" of wireless technology. But if you know wireless, this isn't that hard.
Having said that .. why do I give it 1 stars overall?
Because of the acursed firmware update!!!
Beware the firmware update!!!

Here's another forum talking about this:
http://club.myce.com/f36/problem-firmware-update-samsung-ht-bd1250-301614/
Sometime around September-ish? Samsung published a firmware update that causes the head unit to simply display "LOAD" each time you turn in on. So as of this writing, I'm taking it back to Best Buy to exchange it for a new one.

I bought this product to consolidate several products (blue ray player, net flix player, youtube on my computer and pandora on my computerI have now into a simpler unit. They consolidated them very nicely with a good remote but unfortunately, the main reason I purchased this Samsung for (the sound) was very lacking.
I have an older Panasonic Home Theater unit SA-HT700. I was hoping the Samsung unit would have better sound. Unfortunately it was extremely lacking. The speakers on the Samsung are all plastic and the sound kinda hollow. It is not a full sound at all. Also, the subwoofer is not powered and lacks umph and clarity.
It was dissapointing that with such a wonderful picture, the sound did match that quality.
Besides the sound I found the rest of the unit to be very nice.
Hope this helps anyone looking at this unit. Listen very carefully to the speakers in the store and compare them to other home theater units and you will see a big difference.

Ok, I've never reviewed a product before but I used the reviews so much in making my purchase I had to list one myself. I was very hesitant to purchase a camera with this many features and at this price point considering I am new to the DSLR's. So I did alot of research on DSLR's in general. The D90 kept coming back with great reviews. When I asked a few of my collegues who are photo enthuisiast, they all had the D90. That solidified it for me. I have alot of learning to do, but this camera is suprisingly easy to just pick up and use. With the auto feature, you don't have to be intimidated. I love that I have so much to grow into as I start into my new hobby. I didn't want a camera that I would "outgrow" quickly. I think I have made a fantastic decision. And Best Buy had the best price on the camera with the 35mm lens that I couldn't find anywhere else! Plus when I picked it up at the store, they had a great bag with extra battery on sale extra cheep! I am thrilled and look forward to using

the blu ray dvd player is great! if you have an hd tv and don't have blu ray player, you have no idea what you're missing. the only weird thing is the clicking noise it makes when going through the chapters. but other than that, it's great.

I like the built in battery, you can use it all day long with no worry. Plus your not throwning down $6 every time you turn around. The smart setting will only take the pic when it recognizes a smile.

I tried to do a lot of research before buying my first digital picture frame and it all pointed to this Samsung model. Friends told me I could get a similar frame for half the price but the facts didin't bear it out. The lines of this frame are crisp and stylish, great for any decor. I have a traditional house heavy on the antiques and it fits in as well as it would in a modernist minimalist setting. The picture quality and the apect ratio are awesome, much better than on most of the frames I looked at. It's easy to set up and use; though I do have to tell you it comes with only a quick guide; if you want the in depth instructions you have to download the guide from Samsung. It's great in that it has a built in memory as well as accepting a card and a memory stick. It has lots of display options and a shuffle capability that make every time you turn it on a different experience. Very pleased, in fact am going to buy another and most of my friends who have seen it are now going to 'upgrade'

In real world and in the studio, I'm shocked at the image quality difference from my old 5D I bought 4 years ago. I'm kicking myself for not buying this earlier. Color fidelity, contrast, sharpness, color balance, focusing all better. I'm surprised that the extra resolution really did help. The large files have a lot of headroom for mistakes. While most reviews for this type of item are rationalizing a large purchase, here it goes anyway. When I first purchased the camera, I had cold feet and was ready to return because of the price. But after 2 months, I would buy it again even if I broke it. Alternatives are really overrated, especially on [...]. Nikon has a far more aggressive marketing team than in the past that exaggerates differences, so take what you read with a grain of salt. Lots of people are drinking Nikon Kool-Aid right now and defend them to the death. Overall Canon is a better SYSTEM, although I openly admit things I like better about Nikon: button layout, viewfinder,
