Vonage Online Service: Not ready for prime time

Tue, 3 Jan 2006 21:34:55 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - Vonage is a promising technology which has already adopted the customer-be-damned attitude of the Ma Bells. They never respond to emails, their technology soaks up bandwidth like crazy, and it's simply not ready for prime time in my opinion. First of...

LendingTree: You call this competing?

Wed, 12 Oct 2005 16:00:26 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - I am so sorry I bothered with lendingtree. Starting moments after I provided my applicaiton, I was beseiged with emails and phone calls, even though I did not want to receive any calls. And even worse, ALL THE BANKS they sent me to conducted their own...

Handspring Treo 600 Handheld: As good as it gets for now

Thu, 18 Dec 2003 23:52:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - I get every new thing. It's my disorder, but I like it, and thanks to Ebay I can buy and sell this stuff as fast as the next best thing comes out. Treo 600 is the next best thing, by a quantum leap. It is the most mature and elegant smartphone in...

Rubican---the glory of jeep!

Fri, 4 Jul 2003 09:20:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - If you know my reviews, you know that I get to the nitty gritty, what the average person really want...

Most pixels/dollar and lots more great stuff!

Sat, 14 Jun 2003 09:24:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - I wrestled for a month about this purchase and test-shot every equivalent camera. First let me tel...

palmOne Tungsten T Handheld: Best palm but silly slider

Wed, 7 May 2003 08:20:47 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - I really don't get it. You save 1 1/2 inches by closing the slider, but who cares? What aspect of life does this improve? Thinner or lighter might be nice, but shorter doesn't achieve much: except it is annoying, because now you can't just pick it...

Nicely done, just a few complaints

Sun, 27 Apr 2003 17:39:14 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - You are reading the words of someone who has had virtually every new wireless device that's come down the pike, so believe me, I know what's out there----and I feel comfortable saying that this phone is the foundation, a solid beachhead for the next...

Goodbye Windows for 6 Good Reasons

Wed, 23 Apr 2003 08:32:01 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - I had the first Apple, then switched to Windows for some ungodly reason, I think mostly because so many games and such were available. I liked all the bells and whistles, all the switches and buttons. But I grew to really hate all my windows...

Utter Dissapointment

Mon, 17 Mar 2003 11:29:33 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - I will leave my original positive review at the end of this "addendum" because I owe it to you to tell you how the story ends.

After a few months of decent service, the phone started freezing. Then a much worse thing happened: I would get a...

I switched back...here's the results

Sun, 1 Dec 2002 17:04:38 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - I'm like the guy in the tv ad---a film maker, started with apple, switched to windows for 5 years...and two weeks ago, came back to mac. I got the 12.1 inch Ibook G3, and I think I can be helpful here for those in windows world considering the move...

If it only had a thumboard!

Mon, 14 Oct 2002 10:43:21 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - I replaced my blackberry with this---why? Because Blackberry's calendar and other non-email capabilities are too rudimentary to be useful, and I'm tired of carrying around so many devices! The i705 works on the same radio network as the Blackberry and...

Fujitsu Lifebook P2000 Notebook Computers: In a league of its own

Fri, 26 Jul 2002 09:10:44 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - I travel, use ms word and the internet. Now and then I play chess or backgammon on the computer. I have longed for a truly small computer with an internal dvd, and Fujitsu has delivered this like no one else. I have looked at EVERY small laptop in...

A Whale of a fishing boat

Fri, 5 Jul 2002 20:58:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - My first boat 30 years ago was an 18 foot thompson open bow---my most recent was a Formula 29 PC cruiser. Neither compare in any way to this "bigger than its size" Boston Whaler which I just bought two weeks ago and have enjoyed on rough and...

Better than melatonin

Thu, 2 May 2002 23:16:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - I find myself waking up numerous times through the night, and I understand that many have this problem. I tried melatonin, and it worked very well, but there is no hiding the reality that it puts you in a numbed state of mind, you often have weird...

Motorola V60c: Snazzy and Jazzy

Fri, 1 Mar 2002 23:06:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - Had a startac, then a motorola 270 which I hated cause I was always making calls by accident (once resulting in a real doozy of a problem!).

The 60 looks great, and is about as small a phone as you can possibly use---any smaller and I don't...

Everything but panache

Sun, 24 Feb 2002 22:38:38 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - Really, I just sold my Land Rover and bought the Highlander because it drives better, is much more reliable, feels great, has more worthwhile features. I've never owned a toyota and never wanted to. I hate that I own a Toyota, except for one thing: it...

Hotwire: Outsmart Hotwire

Sun, 24 Feb 2002 22:01:16 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - Smart travellers use Hotwire in conjunction with Priceline, and then you can't lose. Hotwire is outstanding because it gives you their best price before you commit. Once you have that price, go to Priceline, give them the same dates and locations, and...

priceline.com: Outsmart Priceline

Sun, 24 Feb 2002 21:51:04 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - Get to know Priceline and you come out ahead every time. It works! First, don't think negatively for them---they are what they offer---you take a chance on what hotel or what flights you'll get, and in exchange, you can save a fortune. The trick is...

A defining design

Tue, 30 Jan 2001 08:40:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aglazen - Canon really has manufactured a defining design in the digital camera field. First and foremost, this camera is easy to take---in your pocket, briefcase, purse. No other digital camera is as handy to keep with you, and that to me is worth a couple of...
