Good versatile vocal microphone

Tue, 7 Dec 2004 17:38:45 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author myuseraccount - I just started out as a karaoke DJ, and had to get 2 mics quick. I bought an Audix OM-5 used on recommendation of a musician friend, and decided to take a chance on a new E 835 (no switch) for the other one. After only one show, I'm sold on the...

Cobra 38-580-617-00 2-way Radio: MicroTalk PR 240-2 VP -- good kit

Tue, 20 Apr 2004 15:18:38 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author myuseraccount - The Cobra set I got was model number PR 240-2 VP, which is a set of 2 FRS/GMRS radios with batteries, charger, and even headsets. They look different from the picture above; check http://www.cobra.com for an accurate picture. You definitely get a lot...

Nice versatile deck

Wed, 31 Dec 2003 03:55:46 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author myuseraccount - I got this player for my wife's car, as a Christmas gift. Some of the selling points were the illumination colors, which can be all blue or with some of the buttons red, and the line-in jack on the front. The input jack is something hard to find, and I...

Great remote for the money

Mon, 29 Dec 2003 18:25:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author myuseraccount - I got this after being a bit disappointed in my Sony RMV-301 universal remote (see my other review). The main reason was because it was programmable, and it was able to control audio receivers. It's amazing how many 5- or 6-device remotes only do video...

Performs most functions on my devices

Mon, 29 Dec 2003 17:57:35 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author myuseraccount - I got this remote because I lost the original remote for my TV, a mid-90's Philips Magnavox. This remote did all functions flawlessly, including the menus, but the TV doesn't have anything fancy like PIP or A/V inputs. On to the VCR: I got a cheap...

Nice, modern hotel

Thu, 5 Jul 2001 18:50:16 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author myuseraccount - I needed a room with less than a week's notice, and the first half-dozen places I tried in central Seattle were full or well over $250/night (or both!). The W was $189/night plus taxes, so I took it. I was pleasantly surprised by how stylishly modern...

Great little car.

Tue, 3 Jul 2001 16:44:59 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author myuseraccount - Last year (2000) in early summer, I had just gotten off some bad experiences with older cars, and my wife and I were down to sharing one vehicle. It was time for a newer vehicle with a warranty, and my income was enough to justify a car payment. I...

Verizon Mobile Phone Service in Portland: One of the best

Mon, 2 Jul 2001 22:22:44 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author myuseraccount - It was my first mobile phone, mandated by my employer. I picked Verizon for the carrier before choosing a handset, and found a versatile, inexpensive phone that fit my needs: the Samsung SCH-411 "flip" phone, a dual-mode phone with vibrating and...

Qwest Mobile Phone Service in Portland: Thank goodness for the 30-day return policy.

Mon, 2 Jul 2001 21:56:28 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author myuseraccount - I wanted a plan with the extra evening/weekend minutes (not just weekend), and a phone that could do WAP browsing. Since Qwest Wireless doesn't count WAP toward your minutes, you can surf all you like, which is a great convenience. They even offered...

Seemed great at first, but then the problems started

Mon, 2 Jul 2001 21:39:22 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author myuseraccount - GOOD ASPECTS

Don't get me wrong, it's a pretty darn good bank for an online bank: they give great CD, loan, and money market rates (all of which I have used), and free online bill-pay is a great new luxury. They even have VISA deposits, which...
