rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kostroma1 - There is so much hype about TiBook in Macintosh press and I thought I would share my experience with this Powerbook after a month of using it.

Well, first of all, nothing comes close to it in terms of design. It has sleek, metallic body (that is...

Motorola Talkabout T8167 Phone: Size does Matter...

Sun, 17 Dec 2000 22:20:56 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author kostroma1 - This is a phone that is overpriced and the only things that you pay for are size, Motorola name, and two interchangeable plastic covers. If you need more functionality, get Samsung phones-they tend to be loaded with features to a greater extent than...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kostroma1 - If you put a credit card against this camera, you will find out that Digital Elph IS the size of a credit card (just a bit thicker).

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kostroma1 - I got rid of my Kodak DC-215 (see my review) a couple of weeks ago (I sold it on ebay for pretty good chunk of change). I have been shopping for a 2 megapixel camera until I saw G1. Basically, I like Kodak and Canon for the simple reason that they use...

I can eavesdrop on my neighbors ...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author kostroma1 - 900 Mhz ... I was supposed to be impressed. Well, after being able to hear my neighbors talking on their line, I have become very weary of the fact that someone may as well listen to me ... Not a pretty thought.

The phone is standard bland...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kostroma1 - I have been using billpay for about six months now and I love the service. The setup is easy, there's no java script that would freeze your computer, interface is clear and easy to navigate. What you do is designate payees (the service even lets you look...

everything but a Tape Player

Mon, 4 Sep 2000 13:27:59 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kostroma1 - Have you seen it in real life? It is as gorgeous looking if not better than on the picture. The LCD display is like a command center which allows you to control every aspect of the system. Well, enough about looks; after all, that's not why I bought...

Fri, 16 Jun 2000 22:09:29 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author kostroma1 - Points, points, points ... Next Card sucked me in on the promise of points that I can earn with my purchases. Little did I know that there are all sorts of tiny little words called "disclosures" that limit my point-earning ability by requiring...

Too much hassle not worth it

Fri, 9 Jun 2000 23:51:25 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author kostroma1 - If you strive for organization in your life, you probably are thinking about online bill payment.

Fri, 9 Jun 2000 23:38:12 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author kostroma1 - I purchased my Plam IIIx as a birthday gift for myself last year, and it has been a trusted companion ever since. I think it is sort of useless to compete with other opinions on the unit, so I will just highlight the ways that I use my Palm. It's been...

Fri, 9 Jun 2000 21:37:39 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author kostroma1 - Sony Trinitron is something that my countrymen (Russians) will swear by. The brand recognition combined with an excellent picture quality moved me to stick with this model. I have had it for over two years and I have not had a single problem with it,...

Wed, 7 Jun 2000 11:21:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kostroma1 - I just leased my first car and it happened to be 2000 Jetta. Why? For the same price I could have gotten Honda, the most stolen car in the US, Nissan Altima, which reverted back to 1993-1997 design, or some silly Mitsubishi which is supposed to be so...

Oh, long URL ...

Wed, 7 Jun 2000 10:41:43 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author kostroma1 - To be quite frank, I opened an account with this bank just because gomez.com was offering a $100.00 bonus for opening an account. I am a sucker for freebies and I thought that a $100.00 investment which will bring me 100% in return in three months was a...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author kostroma1 - I have been a member of the UMCU for almost a year now. Overall, it does provide good service. I get on-line access to my account, they give me all sorts of perks like member-only auto deals, Sam's club memberships, etc. I think, a regular person would...
