Some are brand new and others are used. The bottom line is that they are all top of the line machines and most provide numerous workout... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~197932846724 Mon, 12 Dec 2005 18:18:06 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_197932846724?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_212163268228?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author hwz1 - I have turned down the GPS option on our last two cars. The reason being that I just did not think we would use it enough to make it worthwhile. I drive a lot for work, but usually to the same places. My wife has a few different routes in her daily... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~212163268228 Sat, 26 Nov 2005 01:04:08 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_212163268228?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_211743444612?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author hwz1 - As a bit of a gadget freak, I was excited when the Apple iPod video player came out. I like the thought of being able to have something that I can take with me when I travel and have more than just music. Now, with the new device, I have both. I had... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~211743444612 Mon, 21 Nov 2005 00:40:35 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_211743444612?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_209666739844?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hwz1 - I have never been one who is able to sleep in a warm room. My wife, on the other hand, likes it to be about 110 degrees at night. This is not a problem while we sleep as she can pile on the covers and I can avoid the covers. However, it becomes a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~209666739844 Wed, 16 Nov 2005 00:56:42 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_209666739844?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_209748070020?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hwz1 - We have now reached a place in our lives where we have a nice TV and thought that a nice home theater system would also make sense. I am not talking about something that costs thousands of dollars or something that is to elaborate. Just something that... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~209748070020 Thu, 10 Nov 2005 00:34:23 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_209748070020?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_209670540932?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author hwz1 - I have always been a big fan of Ping irons, but I have also not spent too much time with their game improvement irons in a number of years. These are the clubs that are made with the average to below average player in mind. Every company has a line in... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~209670540932 Fri, 4 Nov 2005 13:08:14 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_209670540932?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_209669820036?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hwz1 - I converted to a wireless headset a while ago as I am always driving and talking and really have to do so in order to perform my job at the highest level. My wife on the other hand does not have to drive and yap, but she does so all the time.

The drill was always the same; come home, go for my run, shower, eat, head into my office and be gone for a good hour or two. It drove my wife nuts and we never saw each other until... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~209750232708 Sun, 30 Oct 2005 18:24:00 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_209750232708?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_209666018948?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hwz1 - With winter quickly approaching, my wife and I decided that we needed to get a portable heater for the basement. Last winter we found that- since heat rises- the basement got cold on nights when the wind would blow and with both our offices in the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~209666018948 Sat, 29 Oct 2005 00:02:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_209666018948?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_199402557060?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hwz1 - How often are you in a spot where you need to recharge you cell phone or laptop and do not have access to a charger? It does not happen all that often, but when it does it is usually the worst time. You usually need the extra juice when you have to... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~199402557060 Fri, 28 Oct 2005 12:35:03 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_199402557060?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_199274303108?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hwz1 - The Nike Slingshot irons are some of the best looking irons on the market in my mind. Which begs the question as to why they felt the need to make changes to the clubs. Well, the changes they made make the clubs a little easier for the average and... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~199274303108 Sat, 22 Oct 2005 17:54:34 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_199274303108?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_197945364100?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author hwz1 - Nike got the name right. The Sasquatch is one heck of a giant driver. To my eye, it is the biggest of all the over sized drivers that I have seen over the years. At the same time, it is the same 460cc head that so many drivers are in this day and age... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~197945364100 Thu, 20 Oct 2005 00:19:32 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_197945364100?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_199313690244?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hwz1 - I have always been a big Ping fan, but lately I have started to really like the Nike and Titleist drivers. However, the latest Ping might get me back to my roots. The new Ping G5 is essentially a makeover of the G2 that has been so popular.

The extent of my decision comes down to price, size, and effectiveness. Alas, my wonderful wife likes... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~198726028932 Wed, 12 Oct 2005 18:41:33 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_198726028932?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_198804541060?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author hwz1 - My wife and I are always battling our allergies and have tried numerous things to try to get the upper hand.

Or maybe a houseboat. Wow! Using the Itrax is a little different than other putters for the simple reason that the thing looks and feels so big. But, let me back up for a moment.
