I was getting tired of my Blackberry Pearl. Even though it was very capable as a phone and email device, the web experience was very poor.

I do the same thing at home (mirror to an external hard drive) but then after a lightning strike took out our... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~487205015172 Mon, 5 Oct 2009 00:15:42 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_487205015172?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_486880939652?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - We have started to shoot more "talking head" style sessions when someone can't attend some far away event. In the past we would use a laptop right under the camera and scroll their script by using Word and pretty large fonts.Aside from looking... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~486880939652 Thu, 1 Oct 2009 23:25:46 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_486880939652?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_477412232836?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - We recently upgraded out aging Sony 53 inch rear projection TV with this new Samsung unit. What a difference! The frame around the display is a shiny black with a touch of red accent. The unit comes with a nice stand that had a pretty large rectangular... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~477412232836 Tue, 14 Jul 2009 00:25:30 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_477412232836?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_469829324420?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - My wife and I bought a Nikon D70 as our first "real" transition away from film (and we haven't looked back). We still love the camera and pull it out for all the holidays but I noticed that we didn't use it as much as we thought. When our friend's... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~469829324420 Sat, 9 May 2009 17:20:28 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_469829324420?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_462740098692?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - My wife got me started (addicted to) drinking coffee in the morning a few years ago. We used to enjoy some quiet time together before the day got started. Now that we have a seven year old boy, we are just so exhausted that we NEED coffee in the morning... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~462740098692 Wed, 4 Mar 2009 01:30:08 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_462740098692?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_456194297476?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - My wife recently upgraded her desktop to the HP elite (see other review) and we got this monitor for her as part of the package. I was quite impressed by the image quality and the HUGE amount of screen real estate to work with. Of course any 24"... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~456194297476 Wed, 31 Dec 2008 02:07:33 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_456194297476?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_442412011140?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - After fighting with our TroyBuilt 4 cycle trimmer for a few years I finally had enough when the line feed mechanism wouldn't stop feeding line. I would go through a complete spool in one yard trimming, and our yard would be sprinkled with 2 inch long... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~442412011140 Mon, 25 Aug 2008 03:47:16 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_442412011140?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_430973357700?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - I am getting older (I admit it), I am getting tired of fighting with my home built water cooled gaming rig. With no one to call, except myself, when things decide to go bad I am getting tired. I really enjoyed building it at the time but lately as it... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~430973357700 Thu, 22 May 2008 01:07:23 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_430973357700?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_428078763652?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - After I cracked the screen of my Motorola Q I was “forced” to upgrade my phone. I really wasn’t happy with the Q and how it handled the web and email. The battery life wasn’t anything to write home about either. I did a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~428078763652 Mon, 28 Apr 2008 23:53:52 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_428078763652?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_426750480004?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - We had a need to replace our old all-in-one with something a bit more rugged and modern so I started the great research adventure. After spending many hours online I was leaning toward one of the Canon or HP multi-function devices. Since we have started... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~426750480004 Sat, 19 Apr 2008 02:01:34 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_426750480004?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_419590344324?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - I have been using a pair of Shure earbuds for a while, but even though the sound is great (once you get the earbud shells figured out) they kept falling out when I jogged on the treadmill/track. I did some research and decided that I wanted some sport... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~419590344324 Sun, 24 Feb 2008 01:45:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_419590344324?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_414010674820?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - My wife has an older Tomtom 700 and it does a great job, we even bought the updated maps for it. So when I sold my car which had GPS navigation and got my new car (without it) I was wondering if I could go back to &#147old school&#148.

The game is your typical bad dude special ops person that is sent into a hot spot to do something (rescue some scientists) and ends up encountering some bad... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~412173962884 Thu, 27 Dec 2007 04:45:44 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_412173962884?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_406870003332?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - I was going to write a longer review but the other review of this camera by Howard just nailed it. If you want information on specs and performance then visit his much longer (and better) review. I will discuss more of my impressions of the camera.

This car is really quite fun to drive. The involvement with the driver is quite different from my previous car. The engine is the almost &#147sewing machine&#148 like in the way it... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~402268393092 Mon, 3 Sep 2007 00:22:25 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_402268393092?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_377813175940?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - Many year ago I purchased a new 1991 Mazda Miata. I fell in love with the fun of a MG/Triumph with the reliability of a Mazda. I owned that car for 11 years and even won the city autocross season in the late 1990&#146s. I hated to get rid of the car but... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~377813175940 Mon, 18 Jun 2007 02:22:45 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_377813175940?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_356136881796?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (OK now I am only going to use “stalker”) is a first person shooter with some cool role playing elements. This elevates it above the twitch FPS like Doom and Quake but it is not quite as involved as a “true” role playing game like... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~356136881796 Wed, 2 May 2007 01:13:11 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_356136881796?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_265049902724?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - Our aging Panasonic cordless phone was starting to act up (the keypad was difficult to press reliably, what fun when you are trying to retrieve messages) so we decided to upgrade. I loved the idea of multiple handsets and Costco had this model. One thing... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~265049902724 Thu, 12 Oct 2006 23:19:23 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_265049902724?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_245146947204?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - I bought a Sony Vaio T350 about a year ago and my wife was jealous. After a few discussions she decided to get the TX series for herself. Basically the TX is the newer version of the T series (which is the evolution of the TR series). The TX changes from... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~245146947204 Sat, 29 Jul 2006 23:35:15 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_245146947204?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_241929522820?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - My wife wanted a set of nice sounding speakers for her desk and there was no way to have a surround setup. I did a lot of research on 2.1 setups (2.1 refers to the number of "main speakers" two in this case and a subwoofer, the one). My toddler son is... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~241929522820 Thu, 13 Jul 2006 16:25:42 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_241929522820?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_223024090756?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - My toddler son loves roller coasters and with the local parks closed for winter we fired up some computer games to play with. We played with Roller Coaster Tycoon 1 and 2 but he kept asking if we could ride the rides. I guess some other people asked also... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~223024090756 Thu, 9 Mar 2006 16:12:06 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_223024090756?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_221319958148?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - My wife has been driving our Honda Odyssey for a while but the gas mileage was killing us (about 20mpg). We love the room but for moving one person around it is kind of wasteful. We knew the new Civic was coming out but our local Honda dealer was having... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~221319958148 Mon, 20 Feb 2006 11:55:41 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_221319958148?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_217055334020?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - Our old Maytag washer was working OK but the noise had gotten to the point that it chased you out of the kitchen if you had to talk (or think). From my research the Bosch and Kitchen Aid brands came out on top for noise level. After listening to each, I... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~217055334020 Sun, 8 Jan 2006 19:04:28 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_217055334020?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_209224044164?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bradman - I was looking for a nice sport sedan to replace my 2002 BMW 330xi that I had sold a few months ago. I really enjoyed driving of the BMW but the extra features were lacking. BMW tries hard to create a nice environment but I just don&#146t think they have... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~209224044164 Mon, 24 Oct 2005 00:42:30 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_209224044164?linkin_id=8003929
