rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author DrDaveC - I've been looking at the Sony Reader since it's release, and though the device's build quality was excellent (no plastic here, solid metal case construction, as if someone actually designed this thing to last forever, imagine that!) and the e-ink display...

Perfect for travel but not without it's flaws.

Fri, 8 Jun 2007 21:09:20 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author DrDaveC - Let's face it, there are times when you're traveling light and the thought of bringing a big bulky (or even a not so bulky) laptop with it's associated accessories and inherent fragility is just too much of a hassle. The 770's compact size, instant-on...

Switching in grand style.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author DrDaveC - I was sick and tired of PC's. I have been using PC's and working as a computer/network consultant since 1985 (Remember the Leading Edge IBM PC/AT Compatible with 640K of RAM? That was my first computer). For some reason, despite all the aggravation...

Back for Seconds.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author DrDaveC - My first car (at least first car that I've owned on my own) was a 1993 Nissan Pathfinder XE 4x4 in a Manual transmission. Despite it's various faults (noisy ride, repeatedly warping right engine manifold, anemic power and truck-cow like handling) I grew...

A second lease on life for Audrey.

Fri, 2 Nov 2001 17:39:51 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author DrDaveC - This product bombed when it first came out and that is the simple but painful fact that caused 3Com to discontinue it. The Audrey was intended to be an easy to use, integrated Web browser, E-Mail client, Address Book and Date Book. It had the ability...

Not for the Meek

Thu, 22 Mar 2001 18:59:40 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author DrDaveC - Last year, Culoir magazine did a review on this and many other boards for all mountain and backcountry riding. This board was one of their favorites.

A Powder Monster, the Cadillac of Snowboards

Thu, 22 Mar 2001 18:39:22 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author DrDaveC - I have owned and ridden 4 different Burton Supermodels over the last 4 years. Starting with the Original 1st season 162, then the 181, and more recently, the current 168 and 173's. On a Powder day, this is a board you instantly fall in love with.

Great Resort Board.

Thu, 22 Mar 2001 18:12:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author DrDaveC - I purchased this board as a replacement for a 3 season old Burton Supermodel 162. The geometry/sidecut and width closely matches that of the classic Supermodels with the added benefit of being a bit stiffer. The older Supermodels were great powder...

Some little known facts about the RioSE

Sat, 22 Apr 2000 04:44:16 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author DrDaveC - (Updated 4/21/00) The thing Diamond doesn't want you to know about the RIO is that it can transfer data bi-directionally!

I've owned both the Rio and the Rio SE. The original Rio was a bit anemic on memory, but the newer Rio SE takes care of...

The Palm V/Vx series Modem

the Visor Deluxe. Due to manufacturing delays, I did not recieve

the module until 4 weeks after the Visor. Come to think of it,

I don't know why I thought I needed the...
