I got this camera for my 12 year old to take on a vacation. She has had no problems learning to operate it. The software that downloads to your computer as soon as you plug in the usb is easy to use and understand. I looked for quite awhile to find a camera that was easy, inexpensive, small and would take "stills" as well as video--- this is a nice option without being too cheap. It was cheaper in the store than online however- so might be worth a drive to an actual store. The only drawback I have found so far is that the memory can only be downloaded to a computer so if you are on an extended trip (more than a day or two) and plan to film alot you might be better off with a camera that had internal memory and a memory card to expand your filming capability.

Having used my logitech G5 from Battlefield 2 and Battlefield 2142 days till now it had served me well but it's time to look at new stuff. G9 is too small and claw style which doesn't fit me and MS Sidewinder and Razer are both too fat for me, palm/wrist started straining after 5 mins game play. THen Logitech came out with G500 which is named the G5 replacement.
I did lots of research and couldn't find any documentation regarding this. All say this mouse go from 200 DPI to 5700 DPI which is true if you install the setpoint software. I'm very axxx about keeping my computer clean and I really don't see the benefit of having 5700 DPI, it's more gimmick, advertisement than real in game usage.....flick of a wrist and your cursor lands in your neighbor's house? NO THANKS!
By default, G500 is plug and play, this is straight from the manuel.. WITHOUT installing the SETPOINT software, the mouse default at 3 levels. 200, 800 and 2000 DPI just like G5 which suits me just fine! 800

I have been using these phones to watch movies so I don't disturb other people in the area, the sound quality is excellent, and they are very comfertible. I actually forgot I was wearing them at one point since they are so comfertible.

As I already stated: it's still new to us but it seems ok, there are just too many steps for certain processes like deleting calls from the call list takes three (3) different entries to delete, etc.
You're asking me if I would recommend this item to a freind which is much too soon to determine.....

We owned a cyber shot that after a few years and many drops broke. We love this camera, the picture quality is the best! It is very easy to use as well. When we bought our new cybershot we were dissapointed in the zoom capibility. We ordered our new cyber shot camera on line and didn't get to play with it before our purchase. I would highly recommend going into the store to view the camera because when we went to return it, we had to pay an expensive restocking fee even though the box and contents were in new condition. If a zoom isn't that important, I would highly recommend this camera, we loved it, untill we wanted to photograph sports at a distance.

I swore never to buy sony again after my last DVD cam screen stopped working but here i am again.
What sucks;
Can only film i wide screen format.
Must use SONY PICTURE UTILITY to import video. IT IS SLOW AND ANNOYING AND GENERALLY SUCKS. THEN THE VIDEO MUST BE CONVERTED TO ENABLE TO USE ANY PROGRAM OTHER THAN SONY.
AGAIN THIS IS SLOW AND ANNOYING AND I FEEL UNNECESSARY BUT FOR SOME REASON SONY CAN NOT RESIST DOING IT THIS WAY. MOST LIKELY I WILL THROW THIS CAMERA INTO THE TRASH JUST FOR THIS REASON.
Only Adobe sucks more when it comes forcing library features down the throats of the consumers.
I can only assume this is because we would never use their software unless forced to.
If you still feel you must buy this camera, email me and i will sell you this Piece of **** for half price

This phone would be better if if battery life was better. I have charged it overnight, and by noon the next day, the battery is almost dead, down to 2 bars or less; which I could understand if I was on it or using it. But I work all day, so all it does is receive calls for VM and text messages. Also, trying to type with the keyboard would be easier if you didn't have to press the FN key to use common punctuation marks, or if after you type it, the entry returns automatically to text/letters. Overall, a better phone than old Kyocera Strobe, but not much.

Just plug it in WIndows loads a driver,and it is ready to go without using any software. It is silent. No problems with very large files or file names. I always do full manual backups of whole files and folders using a file transfer program, NOT backup software So I did not use the included software disk. My Files are fine!
It uses the included External Power Supply. It does not run off of the usb power alone, as some smaller external drives do, but no problem to plug in the included adapter.The adapter is similar to anything else, like cell phone chargers, etc. The drive capacity is huge. It is so large I am able to backup the data from two or three computers, and folks , that includes lots of recorded TV and iTunes music. The design is simple and elegant. A smart black tower with only the HP logo and an intense modern blue led when the drive is accessed. It stands upright but is not too lightweight to cause worry. I am very happy with this drive and would not hesitate to get a second

I have returned this phone to the retailer once due to the battery life. I charged my original phone for over 24 hours and the battery life indicator never went over 90%, and was down to 40% by noon the next day. I do not use my phone very much at all, a few calls and even fewer texts throughout the day, and this depletes the battery life! The retailer gave me a second phone and it has the same issues, after charging the phone overnight the battery life never reaches 100%, only 90%, and depletes by the end of the day with very minimal use. The features are nice, but I must charge it every night which is extremely frustrating. I would not recommend this phone for that reason.

I bought this laptop to replace my 4 year old Compaq.I bought this on sale for $429, but now it looks like that is the permanent price. Overall, I am happy with the purchase, so far everything has worked well. But I thought I'd just list a few issues for potential owners:
I do a lot of traveling and one of the main selling points for me was the built in microphone and web cam. BEWARE: The microphone and sound quality is HORRIBLE. I've barely been able to complete a phone or video call, because of the frustration from both myself and whoever I've tried to talk to. I've seen the suggestion about changing the settings in some of these reviews, and also by just doing a Google search, and while that improved the quality a little bit, it remains BAD. I'm very disappointed with this. Now, I have to invest more money in a microphone, when I shouldn't have to.
This is another small complaint,and I don't know if anyone else has had an issue with it, but when I tried to change the

Running smooth as silk with 64 or 32 bit apps. Great range and speed with my DIR-655 router and the built in WAN adapter. Tried to max out memory with multiple programs running and it did not miss a beat. Windows 7 seems to be solid. The only thing that raised an eye brow is I had the task bar flicker one time when I was using Firefox. Closed Firefox and fired it back up and the problem was gone. I am very happy with this purchase. I hope you will be also.

Please adjust your settings for the microphone. This microphone is GREAT but settings must be adusted. See what I posted some days ago when I noticed that settings were off:
This is what got me excellent recording sound on microphone of G60-945DX:
1. Go to control panel /hardware and sound /sound/recording/mic/ properties/advanced
change settings to last one which is 2channel 24 bit, 96000hz studio quality.
Uncheck EVERYTHING on the advanced window
2. When in SKYPE go to Call/audio settings
Uncheck automatically adjust audio settings and move recording level to middle between min and max
Save and make a test call
Enjoy

These ear phones was the best and I am usually rough with ear phones, I mean I slammed these era phones in the car door, drop them in water and everything but they worked just fine, unfortunately I broke them by stepping on them but I do not mind buying them again because it is worth it.

This is a great product. Too bad they don't stock it in the stores. It has a small footprint yet it is very loud and has good sound quality. The tuner is very good quality. There is no external antennae to mess with yet it still has great radio reception.

I owned this monitor for about a week now and I hate it. The picture quality is poor, this monitor is not worth the money... keep looking for something better. I have a very high end computer with the biggest video card I can have, quad core processor, and 16 gig ram. Its a gaming rig and this montior should have emachines on it and not apple. I am (or was) a huge apple fan, and thats prolly why I bought it, however tomorrow when bestbuy opens, I will be returning it and just getting a 32 inch hd tv to use as my monitor. I can get a samsung 32 inch 1080p 120Hz tv that I am sure will beat this out of the water, I will get a remote to use for volume, I will put about $1000 back into my pocket and I think with my savings ill buy something else.

I highly recommend you do further research on these drives before even thinking about buying one.
My drive crashed with a total loss of data after only 13 months of very light use.
Be aware that some (if not all) Iomega external hard drives contain the Seagate Barracuda drive 7200.11 (or various versions of it). These drives have a well known and well documented problem that Seagate has acknowledged and is addressing by offering a replacement (or fix) and free data recovery - even out of warranty products are being addressed.
HOWEVER, because Iomega only makes the box that contain a Seagate drive, any recourse over the failure of these drives is almost impossible – you cant talk to Seagate – you have to talk to Iomega.
Iomega has NO real knowledge of the hardware because they DO NOT manufacture the drive inside the box (I tried contacting Iomega and Seagate and was unable to get a response from either of them that was worthy of noting here

Have an XPS 420, and this is the additional dual monitor. By the time I decided to buy a second monitor, my system was 4 yrs. old, and did not think I would be able to find an exact match for the original monitor. Exact match, and comes with both a VGA and a DVI cable. Clear image and allows you to add a Dell sound bar at the bottom ( AX510PA or AS 501). The silver frame is cool.

I bought this laptop a little over a week ago and I absolutely love it! It was set up at best buy and was ready to go when I walked out of the store, it couldn't have been easier! It is easy to use and the blue ray is unbelievable! I bought the cord to connect it to my hdtv and it looks great on the big screen too! if you want a laptop under $1000, this is the one! You can't find a better product for the price! Enjoy! I am!

I am always nervous about getting phones because I am picky about sound but these are great. They work great and sound great.
Very simple to use,
I am not happy about the phone book (saved phone numbers) but it doesn't change my rating because I don't see it as a major flaw at all. The phone system this one replaced had to have each phone number entered by hand to each handset (big pain). This one has a copy and send feature to the other handsets. Only issue is it doesn't recognize a change of a persons phone number...(I entered it wrong originally and didn't know till I tried to call them). So I changed the phone number with the handset I was holding and sent it to the other phones. However, the other phones now had 2 names/numbers for that person...(1 wrong,1correct). It assumes it as different identity doesn't see it as a "change". Easy fix just have to delete the one that is bad on each of the phones.... NOT that bad to do but after enjoying the convenience of copy
