Bought this on sale for $34+ shipping. The next week it was listed at BB for $50. For home use this list price is to high. My brother-in-law bought a MS webcam, but a cheaper model and it works just as good. Audio is great. I am about 2ft from the webcam and I talk normally. If you can get this webcam on sale buy it. Or wait until it goes on sale.

Looks good, works great. I can plug my external hard drive into the usb port and always have my data available to any computer on my network and backups are a cinch. I highly recommend this product. If it had a printer port for non-wireless printers it would be perfect!

A great invention that replaces an entire computer as long as you have a central server for media streaming. Audio and video sound and look great and setup was a snap. I stream 1080P movies through powerline network and they play perfectly with no stutter. Only issue is I have 10 shared drives on my server but the box only displays 5 of them, still trying to find out why...perfomance would be five stars otherwise. Highly recommend!

Everytime my computer went into sleep mode and I woke it up, the adapter would no longer work. I would have to unplug the USB cable and plug it back in. After that it would work until the next time it went into sleep mode. Talked to customer 'service' (I could barely understand and they were clueless) for over 2 hours and they couldn't figure it out even though I saw the same issue in the forums on their website. The straw that broke the back was when they couldn't figure it out they wanted to connect me to someone that I would have to pay to help try and figure out why their product was not working! I will never by a Linksys product again.

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

Overall I am very pleased with the radio. Sound quality is very good for its size. However, setup was extremely frustrating using a 2Wire HomePortal 1000HW wireless modem (about 5 years old). I finally conceded to several online recommendations to use a newer model wireless modem. I bought an Actiontec GT724-WG. Radio setup with the new wireless modem was a breeze.

Great wireless connection for Desktop computers. Reliable signal. Very rarely I loose signal. I have my wireless modem on the first floor and my desktop computer on the second floor and I have a great reception even though there are in-between brick walls. I was a little concerned about the price, but I think it is worth. I'm not an expert installing gadgets, but the driver that came in the CD did not worked for Windows 7. So, I downloaded the driver from the Belkin's website and carefully followed the instructions and it worked. At the end, I didn't know if I did miss a step while installing the driver from the CD or the driver on the website was a newer version.

The Good-
The NVIDIA Ion LE graphics card is great. I use the Revo to watch .avi file and .mkv files. Note: these files dont play strait out of the box you need to use coreavc codecs and windows media classic home theatre (free download just google it)
There are 6 usb ports for easy access
Hdmi and VGA outputs - I use HDMI with my sony bravia t.v.
It comes with a keyboard and mouse... both work great but you may want to upgrade them eventually.
esata port works great if you have an external hard drive that supports it.
_________________________________________________________
The Cons
LOTS of crapware out of the box really slows down the computer so be sure to uninstall it.
No Wireless card in it but you can buy a usb one for a reasonable price.
You cant upgrade any of the hardware without voiding your warranty - this includes the hard drive and ram!

I have a 10" subwoofer that sounded pretty good with my stock stereo. When this new stereo was hooked up to it, my subwoofer sounded 10x better. The sound quality with my ipod plugged into the front usb port sounds crisp, clear, clean, and my subwoofer slapps hard!!! The stereo was not that expensive either. There is not one thing that is bad about this stereo. Everything about this stereo is perfect. If you love to slapp your music loud enough for everyone to here it, then this is the perfect stereo for you. If you have a subwoofer of any size, this stereo brings out the true quality in it and you will never be dissapointed. If you are looking for a brand new stereo for your car, truck, suv, anything, this is the one to buy without a doubt.

Let me start by saying that I'm an enthusiast, and love taking pictures although I have much to learn about photgraphy. That being said, I've actually owned a couple of these Stylus Tough 8000 series cameras. The main selling point of this camera has got to be its extreme toughness. You can take it practically anywhere under almost any conditions. That's why I have one of these cameras. Its great to take on a hike, when you don't want to carry a bigger DSLR, but still want reasonably good pictures. Its rugged, surviving the occasional drop that would break most every other camera.
Probably my favorite feature is the Panaramic mode which allows you to take wonderfully easy panaramic shots. The camera can even stitch them together for you on the fly. Which is really cool when you're on top of a mountain somewhere and want to make sure that the pic turned out the way that you wanted it to.
If you're going to be outdoors and are looking for a light weight point and shoot that

Greatest laptop mouse ever!
I gifted this to my boyfriend and then took over it!
It really works everywhere and the range is great.
This works on my dining table, sofa cushions, bed sheets, carpet etc. all sorts of rough terrain and without mouse a pad!
Batteries lasted me like two months; not bad!
I'm seriously considering buying myself one in "scarlet red" so i can return this blue one to the rightful owner!

Fast, reliable and easy to understand without reading the whole manual- which was not available. Easy to read LCD screen for us printer dummies. Extremely easy to replace ink and to set up the speed dial functions. Like the large capacity paper well. Reduced my desk space with only one machine to do several functions well. Now I can actually read the faxes as they are printed.

first off, i am so surprised by this tv based off of the reviews.
there are no sound/mouth issues as stated in all the reviews prior to mine. im guessing LG fixed this issue. I have cox digital cable and no HD at this time. with this tv hooked up to regular digital cable, it still looks amazing. the 120hz really is noticeable and it looks real.
the color is deep and crisp and boy is this tv BRIGHT! not bright in a bad way, but bright as in really giving those reds blues oranges and greens and FLOURSCENT look to them.
i have a wd HD TV LIVE (which i reccomend everyone get) and i have it connected to my new LG set with a rocketfish hdmi. now, i can stream all my dvd, blu ray rips and digital downloads right from my computer.
i can even use this tv as a monitor if i choose.
what makes the samsung line better is only the higher color contrast. the 40 inch samsungs have 100000:1.
but the way i look at it, this tv is 42 inches and it has a

Purchased the product on 9/18/09. Read some good previous reviews, I thought this product would come handy for transfering files. I had just received a new computer with Windows 7 and was trying to transfer files from the old computer with Windows XP SP3. Both computers locked up. I called Dynex support, they told me it was not compatible with Windows 7 or Windows XP SP3. But on their support website, it stated the product was compatible with Windows 7. I asked Dynex for an upgrade, the tech told me it was not upgradable. Dynex claims ease to use, but beware, when the OS changes the product becomes useless.

The device was acknowedged by the TV; however, would not connect to network. Manual configuration was required. Would only connect to 5Ghz not 2.4Ghz networks. Bandwidth is okay for internet weather and stocks; however, cannot connect to server for firmware updates.

Thanks to Gmrple's review and others on the Ubuntu forums I was pretty sure this would work under Linux, even though there's no mention of that in the Virgin materials. So I went ahead and upgraded my Dell Mini 10v to Ubuntu 9.10 because its mobile broadband support is supposed to be so good. As Grmple said, it was. Just right-click on the Network Manager applet, click on Edit Connections, Mobile Broadband tab, Add button, pick the country, select Virgin Mobile from the list, accept the rest of the defaults and you're done. Getting it to connect is a little unintuitive. After booting or plugging it in, you get a "Broadband2Go" icon on the desktop and you have to right-click on it and select "Eject". There may be other ways, but I just happened to stumble on that one.
That being said, like others, I had trouble activating the thing. I tried it first on my XP desktop. The install program got about halfway through and bombed with a 1720 error (couldn't run a required script). After

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

Toner gave me less than 150 pages on fast/economical printing of a text-only document. This is a huge cost.
When using fast/economical the paper feeder grabs the paper so fast it jams up about half the time. The printer doesn't open very well so getting the jammed paper out is hard.
The printer driver on Vista fails to recover when there is a paper jam and toner cartridges get "upset" = "out of line." Have to restart computer.
If the printer worked well and was gentler on toner use, I'd recommend it. But not this way. I'm taking it back this afternoon.
