rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author l2g - In October of 1999, I bought my Handspring Visor Deluxe as they were first loosed upon the technology market. I was attracted by the value: an 8-megabyte, PalmOS-based PDA at a then-unheard-of US$249, with a "Springboard" expansion slot to...

Basic shredding on a budget

Thu, 31 Aug 2000 18:43:16 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author l2g - Seattle has an excellent recycling program, so I try to recycle whenever I can. But the recycling bin where I live is unlocked, and that has always made me nervous about disposing of items with personal information on them. (Prime example: those...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author l2g - I suspect I am not exactly within the demographic of people most likely to be buying a radar detector. I drive an energy-conserving car (see my Honda Insight review), I respect the law, and the only time I'm likely to speed is when I miss seeing a speed...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author l2g - The Canon Ultura is a MiniDV-format camcorder with a lot of nice features stuffed into the package. Since I have had some prior experience with video production, I was looking for something that would be acceptable for use in "serious" video...
