You can't hear me now??

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author cobrakon - Having recently purchased a Treo 650 (Palmone Inc.) I decided after continuing my ongoing battle with wired headsets to jump into the Bluetooth (BT)fray. Knowing users of both the Motorola HS-850 and Jabra BT250, I knew all about their shortcomings...

Too many negatives to be worthwhile

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author cobrakon - I wish to warn people about the "cool looking" Jabra Earboom Winder headset. Everyone who's had a headset for their cellphone knows the deal. Your cord hangs and gets in the way of everything, getting snagged on seatbelts, door handles, tables and...

So you bought a Zire 71. How are you going to protect it?

Tue, 25 Nov 2003 05:53:16 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author cobrakon - Easy! Buy a hard case. The standard "pleather" case that comes with the Zire 71 offers good protection but has a few minor flaws: 1) The Zire cannot be used while inside the case. 2) The case has elastic sides which tighten it around the Zire...

Business Execs need not apply...This is the "tech guys" PDA

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author cobrakon - Business Execs need not apply... This is NOT your PDA. This is for the average Joe who wants some fun AND serious power in his PDA. The Zire 71 is it, since the standard Zire is little more than those clamshell pocket organizers from yesteryear...

An overlooked model at the top of it's category.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author cobrakon - I was looking to upgrade my living room TV from a 27" Mitsubishi and began searching for 32" TV's. I took approximately a week to complete the shopping as price comparing between stores and rechecking the quality of models is time consuming. I looked...

CarMax.com: Stay Away! This is not a consumers company. They are wolves in "Saturn" clothing.

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author cobrakon - The car I bought was a 1994 Pontiac Grand Am GT Sedan with only 35,000 miles on it. Sound good? Read on! I needed a car and could not afford new so I went to dealers in search of a sporty used car. The only thing I found in my price range that I...

Tiny but high quality player.

Mon, 9 Jun 2003 19:46:36 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author cobrakon - The SD-1700 is definitely the underdog of the DVD player arena. Make no mistake, it is a quality player, but this is the player you by for your Mom to watch DVD's with.

I actually received the 1700 as a prize for a contest I was in and at the...

Another hardware marvel from Microsoft

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author cobrakon - I am what you would call an audio guru, not quite as overzealous as an audiophile but I do like high fidelity sounds. That said, I first came across these speakers hooked to a display machine in a local PC shop and was amazed how a 50' x 60' room was...

Stay away from this controller!!

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author cobrakon - Interact Electronics makes some of the best PC and console game controllers, but this is not one of them.

The "3Dfx" Hammerhead has the appearance of a great controller. It has 10 programmable buttons, two analog thumbsticks and the interact...

932c is a solid all around printer

Sat, 7 Jun 2003 02:28:28 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author cobrakon - HP has always made solid printers and the 932c is no exception. The printer is lightweight, affordable and easy to use.

I bought this printer as a replacement for an 800 series printer (which replaced a 600 series). The advertised speeds for...

Aiwa NSX-DS55 Mini Theater System: No longer offered, but an excellent product.

Fri, 6 Jun 2003 01:52:25 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author cobrakon - The Aiwa NSX-DS55 is the best Home Theater system in it's class. As a matter of fact, it matches many true HT systems in the $500~600 range.

Mine was one of the last production units and I have 100w front speakers instead of the 70w that...

A good buy for less than $150

Thu, 5 Jun 2003 21:51:15 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author cobrakon - This is a very good inexpensive camera. It is enough to get a novice started in digital photography. I have been using this camera for several months and wish to provide some additional incite into the camera. Here are some key specs/features:
