Manufacturer:Midland
Label:Midland
EAN:0460145095048
Model:GXT950VP4

I confess to having purchased this set as a toy but wait a minute!!! This device performs like a pro and five watts surely makes a difference

Greatly exceeded my expectations!!!

I live overseas at Santo Domingo, a +3 million population city and within the city I easily got one mile coverage

As my first purchase through Amazon

Disappointed - Malfunctions right out of the box

com, I found a great deal on the Midland GXT950VP4 radios

5 Watt 42 Channel Mossy Oak Break Out Camo with Up to 30 Mile Range

After opening and making sure nothing happened during shipping, I tested them out in our small appartment to check the quality

Rating 2

It turns out that one of the radios will only transmit for a second or two on HIGH power mode

2009-06-05

I can't even get a full sentence in before it cuts me off

The radios are solidly built and have great features, but I was doing good to get 1/2 mile on flat lightly wooded terain

30 mile? Not even remotely close...

I have owned GMRS radios with half the wattage and gotten the same range

5 Watt 42 Channel Mossy Oak Break Out Camo with Up to 30 Mile Range

5 watts wasnt much of an improvement as far as I can tell

Rating 2





They are nice radios and the price was reasonable

2009-06-01

Just got back from the Nebraska badlands and these 2-way radios worked great

Great product.

Great reception in the hills and also on the highway driving home

It depends whether you use your computer or earphones to play back

2009-06-18

this is the first recorded that i bought so dont have anything to compare it with

good but not great

I recorded the lectures in a small A/V room and put it right under a speaker

The pickup was great but these was a significant background noise when i recorded in the big auditorium

I used a sound editing software so remove the noise and the hiss and after that it was perfect! the battery like is ok and the speaker comes in handy

I am very satisfied with this digital recorder

Philips DVP3345V 17 DVD VCR Combo




Manufacturer:Philips
Label:Philips
EAN:0609585144941
Model:DVP3345V/17

I purchased 2 of these within 3 months so I would not have to learn how to program 2 different ones and within 16 months both of them were junk

Phillips DVD/VCR

They don't record half of the time and when they do the sound is watery and the machines eat the tapes

Plays CD- (S)VCD- DVD- DVD+R/RW- DVD-R/RW- DVD+R DL- VHS

I assumed Phillips was a reputable company with quality products but I was wrong and now I am stuck with 2 units that look brand new but do not work

Rating 1

2009-06-07

I have never been so disappointed with Philips before

DVD Player stopped working after 10 DVD's

I got this in Dec for Christmas after using the DVD a total of 15 with new DVD's it now makes a clicking noise and freezes

Plays CD- (S)VCD- DVD- DVD+R/RW- DVD-R/RW- DVD+R DL- VHS

I wrote Philips and they wrote back telling me to unplug the unit for 30 seconds and because it is out of there hands now (after 90 days) they wash there hands of this apparent defective unit that clearly has a motor issue

Rating 1

I would tell anyone who is purchasing this item, that if you end up buying it make sure you have an iron clad warranty, but honestly I would not waste my money on it

2009-05-29

I bought the DVD/VCR combo to replace another DVD/VCR combo that I had for many years

A Great Product For A Low Price

It was a reasonable price, got shipped to me fast, set up easily and plays all my DVDs and tapes without any problems

Plays CD- (S)VCD- DVD- DVD+R/RW- DVD-R/RW- DVD+R DL- VHS

With my old machine, if there was a tiny little scratch on the back, it wouldn't play

Rating 5

This machine plays everything, even my kids' DVDs which are more than a little scuffed up

2009-04-22

It was definitely worth the price I paid

We bought this because we thought our old one was breaking

Good Deal

We heard a fluttery noice now and then when DVDs were playing

Plays CD- (S)VCD- DVD- DVD+R/RW- DVD-R/RW- DVD+R DL- VHS

Alas, it still happens with our new combo player

Rating 4

But the quality of the picture is better

2009-04-20

Controls on the remote aren't as clear/easy to discern as they could be, but certainly functional

This product is just as described and functions well, however I wish I had been more careful and selected a model with cable/antenna input

Good product, but limited input

With this unit we are unable to receive the signal from our cable company

Plays CD- (S)VCD- DVD- DVD+R/RW- DVD-R/RW- DVD+R DL- VHS

So we only use it as a player

elago Crystal Clear Film Set for iPhone 3G Microfiber Cleaner




Manufacturer:elago Design
Label:elago Design
EAN:0884444813828

The idea of a full face protector is great instead of just the smaller screen IF you are not using a case with it that slides around the edges

Watch the Edges

If you do, make sure you are VERY careful in sliding it on the first time

Crystal Clear Protection Film for iPhone 3G

And avoid removing and reattaching the case

Rating 3

I used a Griffin leather slider case and after just 2 months, the edges of the protector started to come up

2009-06-18

It doesn't help that the Griffin leather case gets loose over time either

This Screen protector is amazing

Awesome!!

It came with good packaging and a resonable time

Crystal Clear Protection Film for iPhone 3G

When I put it on, ( after I cleaned it) it took no more than 2 minutes to put on

Rating 5

There were very few air bubbles and the ones that were there were easily taken off by my finger or a sharp(but not too sharp that it will scratch the screen) edge ( like a credit card)

2009-05-20

So far the screen protector works great and protected my phone in many ways

I really don't understand the review saying it's hard to put on without air bubble

Looking for best screen protector? You just found it !!

It was surprisingly easy to put on and works SUPER GREAT !!

Crystal Clear Protection Film for iPhone 3G



I just put in on moment ago, it looks clear and shiny like brand new iphone just out of the box

Rating 5

One thing though, you need to be careful when you peel the actual protected film off from the sticker base

2009-04-17

both are clear plastic and looks little confusing to tell which one is actual product(film)

I love it when products work exactly as advertised

Great Product, Works Exactly As It Should!

I bought this product after purchasing one of the cheap screen protectors circling around Amazon for pennies

A couple months ago I stepped on it drunk, somehow, and smashed the wheel into the device

I could still turn the wheel but not really, like barely

2009-06-08

And then yesterday I left it in my pocket and sent it through the wash

You can play music, videos, audio books, and view your photos on this little baby

First rate!

How much more can you ask? There's a bit of a learning curve with regard to operation and syncing, but I'm sure it's no worse than with other players

I recommend buying an inexpensive accessory kit with the player (USB cable, protective cover, AC adapter/charger, etc

Manufacturer:Sony
Label:Sony
EAN:0027242730571
Model:ICDP620

A got this device to record public/government meetings

Great Little Device

The main thing that sold me on this particular model was its ability to edit (divide/combine) the recorded files on my computer; as well as the ability to convert the recordings to mp3 files for distribution

Digital recorder with 512 MB built-in flash memory and USB connectivity

The software makes for very easy transcription (basically using the F10 and F11 keys)

Rating 5

Of note:the software did not come with this recorder but it was easily downloaded from Sony's website

2009-05-31

So far, I have only used this for one meeting (of about 25 people in a fairly large room,no microphones

I bought this to tape record my lectures at school

Serves its purpose

I only have one complaint, and that it that it picks up on every little noise when it is sitting on my desk

Digital recorder with 512 MB built-in flash memory and USB connectivity

I need to put it in my purse on the floor or something

Other than that, it works great and as I said it serves its purpose

2009-05-19

I can't see how all tape recorders wouldn't pick up every little noise

This product is NOT vista 64 compatible

ICD-P620-Not Vista 64 compatible

Sony claims up and down that it is, but that is not so

Digital recorder with 512 MB built-in flash memory and USB connectivity

The unit itself is nice

Rating 2

I like it

2009-04-17

But what good is it if I can't download the files?



I chatted with Sony's tech support online to resolve this and I kept being told to unplug my speaker, printer, etc! I kept saying that the driver will not load, but the guy came back with "Vista has native support for this device, so no drivers are needed"

Works great, and has tons of features

Fast Shipping! Works great.

Basic functionality was figured out without the manual
