It's fast (ReadyBoost, right?) and has a good shiny look with a convenient swivel design. All is well until you get to the secure aspect. There're a few things wrong... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~440467361412 Sat, 9 Aug 2008 00:36:55 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_440467361412?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_439626534532?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - In the crowded Tablet PC market, Dell is no doubt the late comer. It didn't even have an offering long after other big boys (IBM, HP, Toshiba, Fujitsu,...) jumped in. However, it may just be a good thing for Dell. Tablet PC had been quite irrelevant... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~439626534532 Sat, 2 Aug 2008 16:44:23 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_439626534532?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_437500677764?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - I bought the drive for 3 reasons: -hardware-based encryption -fast speed -rugged construction All three turn out to be working well. Another major feature advertised is its bundled Beinsync remote backup service. I doubted its value and suspected... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~437500677764 Wed, 16 Jul 2008 13:15:20 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_437500677764?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_425241382532?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - I love it! What can I say - it's a 24" wide-screen LCD. :-) It's a pleasure to work on it with even the most tedious spreadsheets. The screen provides enough real estate to have both your Outlook and browser open side by side in full size. For a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~425241382532 Mon, 7 Apr 2008 13:11:12 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_425241382532?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_421140336260?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - We got the Boppy bouncer from Babys R' Us. We searched online before actually going there and this one looked the most attractive. After unpacking it from the box, I see that quite a bit assembly is required - at least compared to the Fisher-Price we... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~421140336260 Thu, 6 Mar 2008 22:55:23 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_421140336260?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_414722788996?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - They say you should never watch a sequel - it'll ruin your good impression for the original. I'd say the rule is mostly true - about 75% of the sequels are bad as far as my experience goes. Rush Hour 3 will probably move the ratio to 75.1% I guess... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~414722788996 Tue, 15 Jan 2008 23:40:35 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_414722788996?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_403951488644?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - If you have been a BlackBerry user all along, then this is the greatest one (until the next one comes out, of course). It keeps all the great BB features. For those who're not familiar with BlackBerries, that means a care-free wireless email... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~403951488644 Mon, 24 Sep 2007 00:01:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_403951488644?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_401055518340?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - I saw the trailer when the movie came out. It's intense and intriguing. Then I heard on NPR about the small panic it caused in the diamond industry. I know when that happens, it means either the movie does something right, or it does something really... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~401055518340 Sat, 18 Aug 2007 23:20:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_401055518340?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_401050865284?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - I started to look for a portable DVD player as we're going to have an intercontinental flight with our 3-yr old son. We need something to occupy him besides his books and toys. My on-line research led me to the SDP1900. In the age of sub-$100 player... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~401050865284 Sat, 18 Aug 2007 22:28:32 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_401050865284?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_282368839300?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - The faucet mounted filter is relatively easy to install. It did require a little pipe tape to get the threads water tight though. Maybe it's just my old faucet. The filter worked great and the water does taste better after filtering. However it... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~282368839300 Wed, 22 Nov 2006 18:17:53 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_282368839300?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_251829718660?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - Ok the car is for my wife. But hey, the man in the family has to have some say, right? We actually looked at Murano 2 years ago when we were out shopping for a cross-over. Cross-overs just suit our needs: plenty of internal space, no serious... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~251829718660 Fri, 1 Sep 2006 11:11:35 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_251829718660?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_251499024004?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - While stuff like Shure E4c are nice to have, many people do have family to feed so they may find $200 better spent somewhere else. But you may still want to have a pair of noise isolation headphones so you can have some quiet time with your favorite... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~251499024004 Wed, 30 Aug 2006 22:08:51 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_251499024004?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_251437223556?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - I bought the router on sale at Office Max. It's a breeze to get it up and running. Via it's Web management interface I can set up all the features I want: wireless parameters, security options, LAN services, etc. It even includes feature I don't... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~251437223556 Wed, 30 Aug 2006 15:45:04 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_251437223556?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_229444193924?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - BlackBerry is the undisputed leader in the wireless email arena. However BlackBerry devices haven't been fabulous when used as phones. The new 7130e has improved significantly in that department. The shape of 7130e, at first sight, looks like a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~229444193924 Wed, 3 May 2006 11:18:55 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_229444193924?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_228009021060?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - It's everything you'll need from a good common all-in-one machine in your office. Color/BW printing, scanning/OCR, copying, sending/receiving fax. It's reasonably priced and has good performance. I only have two major complaints: Bloated... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~228009021060 Mon, 24 Apr 2006 17:07:59 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_228009021060?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_196693364356?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - I recently purchased Timeslips for our company as a tool for logging employee time and expenses, which will be billed to clients mostly. Timeslips has been in the market for quite some time. We've used some other software from Sage/Best Software, such... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~196693364356 Tue, 20 Sep 2005 11:14:52 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_196693364356?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_87857598084?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - I bought the C400 for a user who'd been complaining about lugging a 7 pound laptop around because she has a bad back. The C400 fits in nicely for this specific need. It is only half the weight and can be fit in a pocket of a small briefcase so a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~87857598084 Thu, 23 Jan 2003 13:33:13 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_87857598084?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_53651672708?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author bwrichard - I couldn't install it at all. I followed the provided instructions and tried on Windows 98 and Windows 2000 systems (the manual included is very simple without much information).
