Nokia 6360: Pretty Much All I Need

Fri, 12 Sep 2003 16:41:05 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author ewilliam - This is my second cell, the first one being the base Nokia 5160. After haggling with my Suncom rep, and sitting in the waiting area for an hour, he ended up giving it to me free of charge, which was a definite added bonus. I was told, at the time, that th...

Waring Pro WPB Series Blender: Simplicity + Power = Perfection

Mon, 4 Aug 2003 15:30:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ewilliam - [We've had the Waring WPB05BC Kitchen Classic Blender for about 3 weeks now. We had heard a few revi...

A Fantastic, Indispensable Tool

Tue, 6 May 2003 11:40:27 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author ewilliam - Having been into furniture building (as a hobby) for a few years, I was surprised at myself for holding out on a nice sander for so long...especially after spending so much on other tools. The old vibrating Black & Decker had had it, though, and before I...

How Could I Ever Live Without It!?

Thu, 6 Feb 2003 12:05:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ewilliam - Let me first say that I have owned (and still own) 2 other, larger Leatherman tools (Super Tool & Wave), and I think that Leatherman is one of the best tool manufacturers out there. However, I've always wanted a Micra, because I can't carry the full-size...

Not a Bad Player at the Time, and It Still Works

Wed, 5 Feb 2003 18:28:27 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author ewilliam - I bought this player when DVD players were still relatively new technology. And, given that I was dazzled by the technology in general, the cons, at the time, seemed trivial. Almost 2 years later, it still works great, and I like it now that I got a...

A Perfect All-Around Drill/Driver

Wed, 5 Feb 2003 17:32:03 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ewilliam - First off, I'll just say that the DeWalt DW953 is, overall, a great drill/driver. For most of your projects, at home or on the job, it performs quite well for the money.

I had purchased a DeWalt DC drill, but got this one as a gift. Having...

Does Everything!

Tue, 4 Feb 2003 14:02:55 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author ewilliam - I have so many stupid A/V components, I was getting fed up with all the remotes laying around! This remote was a godsend! The fact that it can "learn" from other remotes via infrared transfer was reason enough to buy this thing.

Truth be...

A Quality Receiver

Tue, 4 Feb 2003 13:44:09 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ewilliam - Previously, I had owned a Technics receiver, one model lower than this model. I was pleased with it, except for one problem: no optical inputs, so my Phillips DVD player outputs were not entirely compatible, and my surround was not the best.

I Can't Hear You!

Tue, 4 Feb 2003 12:58:10 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author ewilliam - I have had this vacuum for a little over a year, and given the fact that I spent $60 on it, and it's still picking up dirt, I can't complain all that much.

However, I will.

Yes, it is light. A big plus. And it was relatively...

Wow, They Go The Distance!

Tue, 4 Feb 2003 12:26:08 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author ewilliam - I bought these headphones over 2 years ago. Having never heard of Advent, and given the fact that the technology was new and I was getting a good price, I didn't expect them to last this long.

Well, my expectations have obviously been...

Beautiful Design, Delicious Coffee

Tue, 4 Feb 2003 11:40:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ewilliam - Overall, this is a fantastic coffee maker; if you find the right deals, the price is not overwhelming. Having never spent more than $30 on a coffee maker, yet loving good coffee, I found myself in search of something that would surpass the production...

I'd rather burn my belongings than use U-Haul again!

Mon, 3 Feb 2003 13:34:12 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author ewilliam - I planned to move from Blacksburg, VA to Charlottesville, VA (a 2.5 hour trip) on June 6-7, 2002. I had set up friends to help me move, etc.

More than a month ahead of time, I "reserved" a 17' U-Haul truck to pick up on the morning of June 6th...

Comp-U-Plus Direct Online Store: Yes, the shipping costs are high, but the low prices more than offset that problem

Mon, 3 Feb 2003 13:15:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ewilliam - The reason I went to Comp-U-Plus direct are their low prices. Some people question the shipping costs, but my logic works the other way. I bought a SonicBlue Rio S35S; whereas the prices at other merchants ranged from $165-$200+, C-U-P priced it at...

Quite Simply, a Great Saw

Mon, 3 Feb 2003 12:32:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ewilliam - First off, let me say, there is just one problem with the saw, and it's not related to the performance. That problem is, it weighs around 300 lbs. This is due, in large part, to the cast-iron table & wings. However, that is a feature that I was looking...

Sonic Blue Rio S35 128MB MP3 Player: I Love This Thing!

Mon, 3 Feb 2003 11:59:51 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ewilliam - This is my first portable MP3 player, and I needed something that would be suited for my workout. Truth be told, I couldn't be happier! The software it came with makes it incredibly easy to rip songs from your CD collection, fix their ID tags, and upload...
