I previously had a large component system but in preparation for my move to smaller digs in Korea, I needed something small that sounded GREAT.  My good friends got... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~466849599108 Mon, 13 Apr 2009 02:19:26 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_466849599108?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_430190792324?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dragoon101 - Initial Impressions I know a lot of people will disagree with me here and before anybody shoots me down, ask yourself whether you have ever compared each of Sony's noise cancelling headphones side by side at the same time. Most electronics stores... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~430190792324 Thu, 15 May 2008 19:59:12 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_430190792324?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_399728283268?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author dragoon101 - This review is for the Kensington Stereo Dock (owned by ACCO Brands). This unit has since been updated with a more recent model called the Entertainment Dock 500.

I was looking for a Skype phone but I didn't know how often I was going to use it because I had never tried Skype before. At $20, it was an investment I was... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~349570961028 Tue, 17 Apr 2007 16:44:00 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_349570961028?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_335680409220?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dragoon101 - I waited until I reached put on 5000 miles and broke in the car to write this review and while it may still be premature to tell how reliable the car is, the initial and short-term impressions are accurate. The following is also the result of comparing... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~335680409220 Mon, 19 Mar 2007 19:30:36 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_335680409220?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_284479884932?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author dragoon101 - This is the worst mouse I ever owned. PERIOD. I don't have a whole lot to say about the mouse because the problems with it are just simply dealbreakers. Battery Life The battery life is horrible. It takes two AA batteries to power the mouse... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~284479884932 Mon, 27 Nov 2006 19:54:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_284479884932?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_284458192516?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dragoon101 - First of all, this is NOT a bluetooth headset. This is in fact a Bluetooth Speakerphone that is intended to be clipped to your car's visor or worn around your neck. Why get a Bluetooth Speakerphone at all? I recently purchased a Mercedes... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~284458192516 Mon, 27 Nov 2006 18:14:24 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_284458192516?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_249668603524?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dragoon101 - As with all of my reviews, I will not waste time with specs, technical information or other stuff you can find on any brochure or other review. My focus is on the real world use, quirks, and other things you otherwise wouldn't know about unless you asked... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~249668603524 Mon, 21 Aug 2006 21:30:56 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_249668603524?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_236656496260?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author dragoon101 - 11/28/08 UPDATE: I am revising my review and my opinion in light of the fact that the TV formed an irreparable hardware malfunction that caused a large multi-colored vertical stripe to form along a portion of the screen.  The technician tried to... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~236656496260 Thu, 15 Jun 2006 18:38:46 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_236656496260?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_220912127620?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dragoon101 - I know what you're thinking. You're thinking to yourself, "I can buy a cheap external hard drive case for about $20-$30 at Newegg.com. Why would I spend that kind of cash on an external case?" In a word? Reliability. Adaptec is truly the king of I/O... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~220912127620 Wed, 15 Feb 2006 22:30:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_220912127620?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_219541311108?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dragoon101 - I bought these strictly based upon reviews, without ever hearing these at all. All I can say is I'm very impressed with the results. Perhaps the most popular in-ear headphones being purchased by iPod users everywhere are the Sony EX-71LP's.

I'm an attorney and I use microcasette recorders daily for dictation and this is a great little unit if you can get it for a reasonable price.

I'll sometimes ask people how much they think I paid. When I hand it to them and they feel how much the watch weighs, they usually start with "$1000?" They're shocked when I tell them how little I paid... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~216833560196 Fri, 6 Jan 2006 19:12:35 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_216833560196?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_213321879172?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dragoon101 - Read this for a lengthy review, if you're up for the challenge. :) The one really nice thing about this phone is the front display. I really like the fact that it's so big. It tells me all the essential information. Also, with the MP3 player buttons,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~213321879172 Wed, 7 Dec 2005 23:41:10 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_213321879172?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_212737625732?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author dragoon101 - This is a simple review for a simple product.

PROS: * Sound Quality I am very impressed with the sound quality. I was using an old Sony ES single-CD player, and a standard Sony CD changer before that.

This system is a fantastic cordless phone system if you are looking for a phone that has a long battery life and excellent voice quality. Of any cordless phone I've ever used, this wins hands down for voice quality.

Before you read this, let me just give you my caveat: while I love cars, and I can act like I know all there is to know about cars, I'm not going to do that.
