Braun 360 Complete model 8985 is the best electric shaver I have used

Sun, 27 Apr 2008 12:59:01 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - Competition I'm not going to delve into the other competition on the market, since I haven't used those razors personally. Instead, I must mention that I've used other shaving solutions over the years, and compared the Braun...

Adds FM radio to iPod via dock connector

Sat, 16 Dec 2006 16:21:46 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I purchased an iPod Radio Remote during Apple’s Black Friday shopping specials in November 2006. I am pairing it with a fifth-generation iPod (black 60 GB video model). Appearance The Radio Remote is a tiny device, which I believe is...

Not necessarily a Digital Advantage

Sat, 18 Nov 2006 10:52:17 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - We have had this Black and Decker “Digital Advantage” oven for two years. We received it as a gift, and did not pick it based on reviews. Appearance and design The oven is stylish and attractive, with a black plastic, curved glass,...

Handy but limited iPod accessory

Tue, 4 Jul 2006 23:30:15 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I purchased the iPod Camera Connector as a means to download digital camera photos during a long trip. Since I was not taking a portable computer with me, the Camera Connector allowed me to use the extra space on a 60 GB Apple iPod fifth-generation (5G)...

Matched headset for Treo 650, but should you make that match?

Sun, 18 Jun 2006 09:00:24 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I pair my headset with a Verizon Treo 650, using Verizon's 1.04 firmware. Form The Treo headset fits easily into the palm of your hand. It has three buttons and a swivel/adjustable earpiece so that you can wear it on the right or left ear...

Bulky, oddly-shaped external drive enclosure

Sun, 18 Jun 2006 08:33:05 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - At the time of this review, I have had this external FireWire 400 and USB 2.0 hard drive enclosure for about two years. I purchased it at CompUSA—they occasionally have special deals on IOGear products, and I took advantage of one. I am using the...

Flexible and convenient headphones for active use

Sat, 17 Jun 2006 12:01:46 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I bought a pair of Sony MDR-A35 headphones because I wanted the vertical in-ear folding design. They were the only headphones I came across in my retail search -- I was on a mission, I guess -- that had that design and didn't look horrible. I purchased...

Belkin KVM handles both PS/2 and USB computers, but could use improvement

Wed, 6 Apr 2005 15:06:55 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - Overview I have used several of Belkin's SOHO series USB-PS/2 combination KVMs. While they do the job, they require a PS/2 terminal (i.e. keyboard and mouse, which is easy enough since most USB mice and keyboards seem to come with PS/2...

It removes moisture, and that's okay by me

Sun, 9 Jan 2005 21:01:29 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - The dehumidifier is taller than wide, and about as wide as deep. It has handles on the sides, for lifting the unit. The entire device rolls around on built-in casters. For getting rid of water once it is collected, the 54501 uses either a pull-out...

SanDisk 8 IN 1 USB 2.0 READER (SDDR-88-07) Memory Adapter: Fast and capable multi-format reader

Sun, 1 Aug 2004 09:41:36 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I purchased my SanDisk SDDR-88 8-in-1 memory card reader from Circuit City in December 2003. I managed to get it while it was approximately $50, but a promotion dropped the effective price to $5. At the time, it was the first 8-in-1 memory card reader...

Extremely portable and handy FireWire storage

Tue, 27 Jul 2004 10:39:59 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I purchased my FireFly on an unbeatable $99 closeout deal from Apple's on-line store in 2002. After talking with a Smartdisk representative at MacWorld Expo later, I found out that price was below their cost. Size and portability The FireFly...

Belkin Wireless Desktop (F5D7000) Network Adapter: Works with Mac OS X and AirPort Extreme drivers

Tue, 27 Jul 2004 09:59:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I am using the Belkin 802.11g Wireless Desktop Network Card (model F5D7000) in a Power Macintosh G4 (Gigabit Ethernet) tower. This computer serves several purposes: it's my broadband router, wireless access point, Web server, and print server. The...

Excellent wireless mouse experience would be improved with power button

Sat, 8 May 2004 08:06:55 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I specifically wanted a Bluetooth mouse because I primarily use a PowerBook G4 17-inch computer with built-in Bluetooth support. Therefore, I do not need to have any extra USB devices plugged into my computer to connect with Bluetooth peripherals. I...

Decent first motherboard

Fri, 19 Sep 2003 10:50:41 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I got this as my first PC motherboard purchase. I am a long-time Mac user who is quite familiar with hardware, but not as familiar with recent PC technology as I might like. I wanted to pick up a PC and build it just to get a little more familiar with...

A useful novelty

Fri, 19 Sep 2003 10:34:58 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I got an Apple iSight in the summer of 2003, and have enjoyed it a lot. I don't get to use it as much as I'd like -- and that's why I would call it a "novelty." It's not something you absolutely need, but it's a device that is well done and can serve...

Fantastically portable

Fri, 19 Sep 2003 10:15:01 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I am primarily a Macintosh user, although I use Windows-, OpenVMS-, and UNIX-based computers in the course of my work. I am in technical support, so I would say I'm a little more advanced in my computer knowledge, and demanding of my computers, than the a...

irock! 300W Wireless Music Adapter: iRock doesn't, at least not for a whole trip

Sun, 29 Sep 2002 12:54:23 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - The iRock is a small device that transmits audio from any device with a 3.5 mm stereo-miniplug output to any FM stereo receiver.

The iRock does work as advertised. The FM transmitter does send audio to my car stereo.

After that,...

iPod is superb MP3 player

Sun, 29 Sep 2002 12:36:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I got my iPod right before Apple came out with a new model, so I have the older-style mechanical control dial. My review will be colored by that fact.

Still, I love this device. It is probably one of the best pieces of consumer electronics I...

Will change how you watch TV (and perceive other media)

Fri, 17 May 2002 10:59:00 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - After having a Sony Tivo SVR-2000 since November 2001, I can definitely use the hackneyed phrase that "it will change the way you watch TV."

Of course, I was expecting it to.

What I wasn't expecting is that I long for it when I'm at...

Pertech Hub Master (7PORTUSB) Networking Hub: Best USB hub I've seen

Sat, 29 Sep 2001 11:00:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - The Pertech USB hub served as a replacement for a series of faulty Entrega (now Xircom) hubs. I was depressed at how badly the Entrega hubs worked, considering they came from an early leader in USB technology (and, so they said, one of the...

Decent printer for the price

Sat, 22 Sep 2001 13:19:54 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - The most annoying trait about this printer is that the ink is water-soluble, so unless you're printing on glossy paper, you will smear your printouts. HP solved this problem a long time ago, so I'm very surprised that anyone ships a printer with this...

Consider a different phone

Sat, 25 Aug 2001 10:38:27 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I have had the AT&T 9520 for about a year and a half, and it broke after six months. I still use it regularly, but I'm no longer able to use the built-in mike and speaker -- I'm forced to use a headset.

This is a big problem.

Can't start up your Mac with it

Sat, 25 Aug 2001 10:23:11 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I got my Pro keyboard along with a Power Mac G4 dual 450 in January, 2001. I use it sporadically, as the computer is a server.

I have found that overall, I like the keyboard, but that I'm very frustrated with its limitations.

The...

Keyspan Digital Media Remote: Add IR remote control to your USB computer

Sat, 25 Aug 2001 10:04:13 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I picked up the Keyspan DMR at the Apple Store in Tyson's Corner, VA. I was passing through on a road trip, and had to stop at the place -- and having stopped there, felt compelled to buy something.

I chose the DMR because of it's cool-factor,...

Not your average space-age USB device

Sat, 25 Aug 2001 09:46:18 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Jaharmi - I haven't gotten to use this device as much as I would have liked after picking it up on the show floor at Macworld Expo NYC 2001. It's really highly-specialized, and I bought it in anticipation of taking up an iMovie hobby on my home Macs. That hobby...
