Wed, 20 Oct 2004 22:42:33 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - Wow, I didn't realize so many people gave bad reviews of SBC Yahoo DSL. Contrary to their experiences, I have had little problem, except for the initial set-up, which I will tell about later. For $26.95 with 1-year contract, the 1.5Mbps...

Solid Self-Cleaning Shaver

Wed, 20 Oct 2004 02:26:29 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - I got this gift as a birthday present. I guess I hinted enough to people around me that I needed a new shaver, so they bought me one. After reading the box, I thought to myself, "wow, this thing cleans itself!". I couldn't wait to try it out...

Wed, 20 Oct 2004 01:51:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - Thank you Borders! I discovered this CD when I went to Borders and they had Hiromi's CD up for sample. Of course, at that time, I didn't know who she was, but I had a lot of time on my hands while waiting for my mom to finish shopping, so I...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - Having just graduated from college and gotten a job, I needed a new car. With our family having owned two Honda Accords before (1990 and 2000 models), it was obvious to me which car to pick - the new Accord 2003. I know it's almost the end of...

Good electric piano at an excellent price

Tue, 19 Oct 2004 03:49:08 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - Living in the apartment has forced me to find an electric piano so that I could use headphones and not aggravate the neighbors. Thus, I went to the Guitar Store and tried out all the pianos they had. Of course, with a limited budget, I was...

Bike Hike

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - I started playing and finished this game at Best Buy. At first, it was pretty confusing for me to find out all the moves. Actually, the most difficult part for me was to find out how to accelerate the bike and let go of buttons so that I can do...

Don't judge a book by its cover (or title)

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - After walking around in Border's one day, I found this book on one of the "recommended" shelves in the Business/Finance section. After having read the title, I began to scoff and laugh at it; what a cheap ploy for the writer to sell off a book with...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - Having bought 2002 – Land of Forever, I immediately went out to buy River of Stars the moment I saw that it was released; I want to hear the magic of the music that 2002 makes. Now that I’ve read up on them a little, the music makes more sense, and...

Tir Na Nog here we come!

Fri, 5 Jan 2001 15:54:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - This was the first album of 2002 that I bought. Thanks to Border's music post, I was able to sample it before I bought it. I've always liked this kind of new age music: dreamy, out-of-this-world, light, soothing. After having heard the first song, I...

Smoother than Silk

Fri, 5 Jan 2001 01:49:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - Having lived in Thailand for ten years and being a Thai myself, I have to say that this airline is one of the best Trans-Pacific airlines, especially if you’re going to Bangkok. I fly between Bangkok and L.A. a lot, and I’ve found that Thai Airways is...

A Heart in the Sky

Fri, 5 Jan 2001 01:46:24 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - I guess the heart on the side of the airplane isn’t just for decoration. Truly, Southwest airlines have put themselves on top of all other airlines. Here are the reasons:

1. Amazing hospitality – I’m always confident that the flight...

Thu, 4 Jan 2001 23:50:48 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - I received the PV-200A as a Christmas gift from a friend. At first, I thought that this thing probably costs about $200. Later, I found that it's about half the price I expected. When opening the package, the design was so sleek that I thought it was...

Thu, 4 Jan 2001 21:33:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - Just seeing the picture of the epinions page brings back good memories of me and that piano. Unfortunately, I never had the money to own it, but I spent much time with it in early high school (1995-1997). I remembered that our school just recently...

Thu, 4 Jan 2001 17:44:40 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - Yesterday, I was utterly disappointed with my TV: the picture was greatly dimmed and the quality poor--even turning up brightness and contrast did not solve the problem. Then I realized the problem: I haven't wiped my TV screen for ages. What came...

Bose--loud in price and price only

Wed, 3 Jan 2001 18:14:35 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - Before I got into all this Home Theater stuff, I've always thought that Bose was at the pinnacle of all speakers. Costing over $1,200 per system, how could anybody go wrong with those speakers. For a while, I was truly a Bose advocate, until I heard...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - I was tired of being bound to the handset receiver of my old telephone, so I started to look for a cordless one on-line. After having searched for a while, I came across the Vtech 1920, which Staples sold for $40 which you can still get $20 back from...

Unmixed Feelings...

Wed, 3 Jan 2001 16:53:30 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - I bought this VCR about 2 years ago for about $229. At that time, I didn't really research my purchases, so I just trusted with brand names. So, I decided to go for the Sony VCR since Sony is usually reliable in terms of A/V.

After having...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author krispyjala - After having looked around at a couple of DVD players at Best Buy and reading the epinions here, I finally decided that the best DVD player for me was the Toshiba SD-2200. Luckily, at that time, Mercata had a huge sale with its Mercata dollars and...
