Good idea, but flaky/inconsistent

Tue, 3 Apr 2007 23:09:11 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author jumpfroggy - I've been looking for a wired or wireless remote for my iPod (15gb 3G, old one) for a while. I picked up the ABT iJet remote at Radio Shack for $10 (cheaper than the real apple wired remote, which they sell for $30-40). ==Build, iPod plug==...

Great layout, horrible key feel. Not worth it.

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jumpfroggy - Don't you hate it when you find a product that's so great is so many areas, but fails in one aspect so is unusable? That is this keyboard for me. I'm particularly picky on the feel of my keyboards. I work as a developer all day and I rarely use a...

Best cheap headphones I've tried!

Tue, 27 Jun 2006 17:31:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jumpfroggy - I used behind the ear $15-20 phones for a while, and recently received a pair of nicer $60 Sennheiser HD497's. Those are awesome, and they made me realize how much of my music I was missing (my favorite music sounds so much different, there's a lot more...

Router locks up all the time, no fixes

Mon, 19 Jun 2006 22:38:21 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author jumpfroggy - I previously had a belkin 802.11b router that worked fine. I was not a huge fan of the belkin, but it worked without any failures (that I can remember) and handled what I wanted. I recently decided to upgrade to 802.11g, so I got the D-link DI-524...

Severe disappointment, not very good without work

Sun, 29 Jan 2006 17:46:14 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author jumpfroggy - I bought these as a cheaper alternative to the active noise canceling headphones (had a Sennheiser PXC-250, Sony MDR-NC50). I figured I might as well try a low-cost route to see if it would suffice for my plane traveling. The sound quality of these...

Balanced, very clear, just fun to listen with!

Sat, 21 Jan 2006 18:11:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jumpfroggy - Bottom Line: Awesome headphones, best I've heard so far. Definitely worth the price, and completely changes the music you've been listening to. Great highs, good mids, incredibly clear bass. Good construction, plastic but solid. Good...

Sound great with power on, very good.

Sat, 21 Jan 2006 17:49:33 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jumpfroggy - I've been listening to budget headphones (<$20) forever, and I recently got a pair of Sennh
eiser
HD-497's. Completely blown away! I never noticed how dull my old headphones were. So when I started traveling a lot...

Definitely not worth the money (too bad)

Sat, 21 Jan 2006 17:35:29 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jumpfroggy - I had high hopes for these headphones. I've been traveling a lot more recently (long plane rides) and decided to look into noise canceling headphones. I chose the NC50's because they were circum-aural (going around the ears) which I thought would be...

Microsoft Basic Optical Mouse (P58-00001) Mouse: Quirky mouse, not worth it

Sat, 15 Jan 2005 11:08:35 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jumpfroggy - Update: I no longer have the "quircky" skipping issue. I don't know if it's due to switching laptops (from a Dell Inspiron 5xxx to an IBM Thinkpad T40) or something else. I still would not recommend this mouse, as it's not natural feeling...

Loved it, but sorely lacking NetMD (USB hookup)

Sat, 15 Jan 2005 10:58:33 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jumpfroggy - I bought this a few years ago (maybe 2000 or so) on a whim. It was an open box discount, and I planned on trying it out and possibly returning it. I never did though. First, the best things about it. It uses MD's, which are cheap (get for $1 each...

Good USB keyboard, bad F-Lock, feel of keys too loose

Wed, 4 Aug 2004 12:57:54 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jumpfroggy - I bought this keyboard because my laptop needed USB. I found it very cheap on ebay and decided to go for it, as it looked impressive. I don't use any of the extra buttons except for the volume slider, which has proven very useful (there is a noticeable...
