Forget Sony !

Thu, 28 Nov 2002 01:51:24 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - I needed a lightweight earphone/headphone as an alternative to my Sennheiser HD580-- they're great, but the bulkiness of the thing makes it unsuitable for use with walkmans or while traveling. The first earphone I got was a Sony for around $15. It was...

Men in Black 2: Don't bother because you've already seen it

Thu, 4 Jul 2002 14:52:56 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - If you think this movie is going to be funny based on what you see from the trailers, guess what? The trailer has already shown you the best parts of the movie. The rest of it is uninteresting and definitely not funny.

Whoever wrote the...

I'd go see it

Sun, 28 Oct 2001 01:29:21 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - So far I'm the first one to recommend this movie. Yes, the plot is shallow. Yes, the acting wasn't good. Why am I recommending it? Simply because it's an entertaining movie.

The glass house is very neat, not to mention that it's an...

sucks dust, but thats all

Sun, 5 Aug 2001 00:19:34 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - This broom vacuum is very convenient-- it's light-weight and you can use it/put it anywhere. However, the vacuum is very weak. You can't even pick up nails or screws or even moderate size clumps of paper!

It does pick up dust adequately,...

Certainly impressive

Sun, 8 Jul 2001 02:50:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - This movie is unusual in that it takes its main character completely to the end. Where you would expect the movie to end and leave some to your imagination, the movie actually continues on, and on... and completes the character's journey to a close...

great headset!

Tue, 3 Jul 2001 16:43:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - This headset is large enough to cover your whole ear, which makes it super comfortable. You can put these on for hours and not even notice that you're wearing headsets.

The sound is, needless to say, wonderful! The bass is excellent--...

Not hifi but perfectly acceptable

Mon, 25 Jun 2001 02:25:28 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - I got this for the purpose of listening to audio books, not playing music. For my purposes, the player is perfect except that it can't resume. If I have a 30 minute mp3 file, everytime I stop it I have to start from the beginning. The player can...

A completely and utterly waste of time!

Sun, 24 Jun 2001 00:18:46 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - Every director wanna-be should go see this film. It shows exactly what you should NOT do in a film. It is *so* horrible it's not even funny, and I don't even know where to start.

1) The movie is SLOW. I've seen slow movies before but this...

What's that? underwear?

Wed, 20 Jun 2001 18:18:07 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - Mariah Carey has a tendency to tilt her head to the left (always showing her right cheek) for some reason, and looks at you adoringly with those if-you-look-at-me-hard-enough-you'll-see-i'm-not-wearing-any-underwear eyes. You get a lot of this in her...

Netflix.com: Better than Blockbuster

Wed, 20 Jun 2001 03:45:24 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - Blockbuster lost a tape that I returned, and they said that it's my fault because I haven't returned it. Well, I dropped the tape in that drop-off box, who's from preventing the little twit behind the counter from taking the tape? So I paid the cost...

Like to configure your advanced server?

Wed, 20 Jun 2001 03:23:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - This book is targeted for a wide audience-- from novice to pro's. By novice, I don't mean novice end users, but novice ITs. It is cleverly written so that it is detailed enough so the novice will understand, but concise enough so that the pros won't...

The problem? Palm !

Wed, 20 Jun 2001 02:08:47 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - Although having a palm PDA embedded in the phone is nice, there's nothing wrong with carrying a palm AND a cell phone. What you get with this phone is mere convenience, nothing more.

The main problem with this phone is the Palm operating...

A great vacuum and steamer

Wed, 20 Jun 2001 01:19:23 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - I got this at an auction for $60. Honestly I wouldn't pay over $100 for this thing, but for $60 I think it's a great price. The vacuum really sucks!-- I mean that in a good way. The suction power is comparable to the Shark EuroPro vacuum (that small...

great for Duron processors!

Wed, 20 Jun 2001 00:57:44 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - I must say, overclocking with Abit motherboards is a dream. No more figuring out which jumpers to fiddle with and no more sweating over that lost screw (hmm is it on the motherboard somewhere? will the computer short circuit if I turn it on?). To...

A must if you have dolby digital

Wed, 20 Jun 2001 00:23:48 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - I bought this DVD becauase I wanted to test my speakers and receiver. I must say that the sound quality of the DVD is excellent. I also bought a Bon Jovi crush tour DVD and compared to this, the sound quality is horrible.

In general, I...

no loyalty to customers

Tue, 19 Jun 2001 23:37:32 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - I owned a discover platinum at 10.99% APR. They suddenly raised the APR to 14.99% without any reason. When I called them up they told me that they can't afford the 10.99% because of interest rate increase (this was in 2000). This is of course a lie...

you can find better

Tue, 19 Jun 2001 23:24:23 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - While the idea of having a reloadable debit card is sound, the problem with Ecount is really the fees.

Ecount charges $2 whenever you add $0 - $99 to your account. If you want to add more than $99, you need to do it multiple times... yes, so...

Throw away your package why don't ya :)

Tue, 19 Jun 2001 22:27:48 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - I've had the experience of dealing with Fedex unfortunately through ubid.com, who ships only via Fedex.

My previous experience was with UPS so I can only compare the service with UPS, and comparing the two is like comparing night and day...

uBid Online Auction: Can you say highway robbery?

Tue, 19 Jun 2001 21:24:16 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - To show you how much they rip you off on shipping charges, take this product: Wharfedale Diamond 7.1 bookshelf speakers.

Amazon sells them for $79.99 a pair, for a total weight of 6.5 pounds. ubid.com sells these speakers one piece at a...

Very good ! -- Except for the electricity!

Sat, 16 Jun 2001 19:26:49 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - I basically got this dehumidifier for my computers. They are on 24/7 and high levels of humidity will slowly kill them.

I bought a 40 pint DeLonghi dehumidifier. I'm not sure if the model is DN 125, but it looks exactly the same. There...

The Commercial Champion Juicer: Got juice?

Sat, 9 Jun 2001 01:47:11 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - There are three things that stops me from rating this juicer a perfect score:

1) It's heavy.

2) It's a hassle to clean up.

3) Design isn't perfect.

This thing weighs at least 20 pounds. It's very tough-looking-- it...

Get one!

Sat, 9 Jun 2001 01:32:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - There are no adjectives that can accurately describe the sound that this headphone produces. The sound is rich, balanced, and soft-- you feel like you can listen to it for hours without your ears getting tired.

The detail is outstanding...

One of the best animations ever

Fri, 1 Jun 2001 01:00:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - This is the best animation I've ever seen next to "Beauty and the Beast." The plot and dialogue is fresh. More importantly, the film is just plain funny.

In terms of entertainment value, I think you'll be more entertained with Shrek than...

The best MP3 player I've seen so far

Fri, 1 Jun 2001 00:27:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - Whoever is NOT recommending this product probably just wants you to read the review so they get an extra penny.

This player is the best player I've seen yet. It does just about everything-- FF/RW within mp3 songs, resume function (with...

One of the best value receivers!

Fri, 18 May 2001 02:18:49 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mosquitoguy - This is a 5.1 dts/dolby digital receiver that I bought to supplement my DVD player. First, even though the front of this receiver looks simple-- there's two rows of buttons and two dials-- this receiver is far more functional that it looks. E.g. You...
