Good for everyday wear

Wed, 26 Mar 2008 18:09:18 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - I've been wearing this watch every day for about two years now. It's been pretty durable and comfortable, with lots of useful features. I got it on clearance for only $20, so I definitely got my money's worth out of this thing. LIKES •...

Finally, portable speakers that don't vibrate

Thu, 20 Mar 2008 16:38:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - After my disappointment with the Logitech MM28, I decided to try these. (When I bought it, it was by Audio Source. I guess it's Phoenix Gold now?) I couldn't be more pleased. Well, I could, but I'm very satisfied at least. POWER SOURCES Out of...

Is this really the only keyboard of its kind?

Thu, 20 Mar 2008 16:13:01 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - Much to my surprise, my extensive search for a keyboard that is contoured like a Microsoft Natural keyboard which also has a touchpad in the center of the wrist rest area yielded only this one by Adesso. This is unfortunate, because even though it serves...

Portable and Stylish, but could use some improvement

Mon, 18 Jun 2007 20:12:46 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - When I first encountered this Logitech portable speaker, it seemed to fit just what I was looking for. It was fairly compact and easy to store, not very expensive, and extremely portable. I had no way to test the sound quality before purchase, but I...

More fun than the first one

Mon, 18 Jun 2007 14:49:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - INTRODUCTION The first installment of the Lego Star Wars games was all right. It took some getting used to, but it was kinda fun. The first one spans Episodes 1, 2 and 3. This second game covers Episodes 4, 5 and 6. Much of the same elements of...

One of the best hybrids out there

Thu, 7 Jun 2007 18:00:39 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - What a relief to find a hybrid that isn't too much of a compromise from buying a regular car. The previous review did an excellent job of describing everything about the car, and I agree with just about all of it. So rather than bore you with the same...

Has both fun and annoying elements

Tue, 29 May 2007 17:07:16 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - FIRST IMPRESSIONS It's a cute game with a cute concept. The fun factor lies mostly in seeing the Star Wars movies remastered in the Lego world. Key plot points are shown in funny cutscenes that involve some sounds, but no talking. They'll only...

So much potential, might be worth it if it was cheaper

Mon, 14 May 2007 14:30:36 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - I was extremely pleased with my Gmini 402, but wanted to try something with a bigger screen. The Archos 404 fit the bill (the 604 was too expensive) so I gave it a try. OUT OF THE BOX What you get is a little disappointing. In order to keep...

Lots of features for little price

Fri, 1 Dec 2006 15:48:01 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - This is actually a review of the Archos Gmini 402 Camcorder Digital Media Player. OUT OF THE BOX Packed nicely in a compact box, you actually get more accessories than you normally would with most MP3 players. Most companies hope...

Love at first sight and what Nissan learned from the Xterra

Wed, 3 Nov 2004 18:39:09 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - We started getting flyers for the newly restyled 2005 Nissan Pathfinder and was immediately captivated. After years of looking pretty much the same, the Pathfinder has gone through a much-needed makeover. When we got a mailer from a dealer advertising...

Lojack - helps pay for itself: Great if you can afford it

Tue, 2 Nov 2004 18:12:00 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - With the purchase of a new vehicle a few years ago I had the three choices: 1. Install a car alarm 2. Get Lojack installed 3. Install neither Option 3 was a bit risky since Los Angeles isn't exactly a low-crime city. I hated car alarms, all they...

Couldn't finish it

Tue, 19 Oct 2004 18:01:30 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - This is one of those "artsy fartsy" films that you'll either love or hate. While the first reviewer is in the love category, I'm in the opposite. I'm one of the common folk who prefer the likes of Spiderman and Star Wars over excessively dramatic...

Best Western Mardi Gras Hotel & Casino: Good if you like sleeping on plywood

Mon, 27 Sep 2004 21:21:23 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - THE DECISION I'm a very price sensitive person, so I'm very willing to try new places if the price is right. I was going on a leisure trip to Las Vegas, but that weekend was apparently busy because all the major casino hotels were either booked...

IMAK Products Smart Glove, Small 20125: Low-cost, simple-to-use wrist relief is now possible

Tue, 24 Aug 2004 16:41:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - I used to see all kinds of ugly wrist supports that used velcro and even shoelaces to give adjustable support. They were kind of costly too. But now a bunch of supports under $20 are available, including the Imak Smart Glove. What first attracted me...

JMTek MelodiStik USBDrive 128 MB MP3 Player: Kind of impressive for its size and price

Fri, 16 Jul 2004 20:47:20 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - I picked up this little gadget from Costco for $35. I was actually looking for a cheap little voice recorder, so the MP3 and FM radio capability was a bonus. CAPACITY This Melodistik holds 128MB. In terms of music that's a teensy bit more...

I used to dislike Motorolas, but not anymore

Fri, 16 Jul 2004 19:42:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - Motorola phones used to be clunky, ugly phones with only one annoying ring. I've been a Nokia user up until the last phone upgrade. I just didn't like any of the new phones that Nokia put out. They were just plain ugly and bulky with displays that...

Not bad for a cheapy projector clock

Thu, 11 Mar 2004 17:25:11 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - BACKGROUND INFO I first got alerted to the existence of projector clocks when I started seeing them listed on some gadget sites. I thought it was neat, but didn't think much of it at the time. It wasn't until much later that I started seeing...

For the price, it should be better!

Tue, 6 Jan 2004 21:31:56 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - After having gone through a series of cheapy cordless phones with limited range, we decided to splurge on a fancy phone that would fulfill all our cordless desires. To date this model has only fulfilled some of them. OUT-OF-THE-BOX EXPERIENCE...

My favorite watch so far! (Model 47852)

Wed, 2 Jul 2003 21:04:26 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - Timex has so many different models in the Expedition line of watches, I had to choose the one that m...

SBC Yahoo: Money-grubbing bastards that don't care about their customers

Wed, 4 Jun 2003 14:06:00 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - When my cable internet service was going to jack up its prices, I decided to switch to DSL. Supposedly it was supposed to also be fast and reliable, plus they had a deal where it would be $34/month for 6 months. What a huge, huge mistake I made.

Benchmark DLT Cleaning Cartridge, single: I wish cleaning tapes lasted longer

Mon, 24 Mar 2003 15:43:20 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - I have a Benchmark DLT7 drive and no other cleaning tape will work on it except the Benchmark Cleaning Cartridge. I guess it was built especially for this drive, so I would not recommend it for any other drive.

The used DLT drive we bought...

KDS CD Organizer (CDM-751) Internal CD-ROM Drive: Doesn't live up to the marketing hype, but still very useful

Tue, 2 Jul 2002 15:33:24 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - THE ANTICIPATION I was flipping through a Buy.com magazine when I encountered a full-page spread of this new product called the CD Organizer by KDS. I read about its features and all the neato nifty things it could do and got very, very excited...

Drown out your environment without tripping on wires!

Mon, 22 Apr 2002 14:52:56 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - I bought these through Ebay and discovered that the charger wasn't working, and the Frequency Tuning Light wasn't either. I'm in the middle of settling this with the seller, but I can still review the parts of these headphones that are working, which...

This is what Plug and Play is all about

Thu, 17 Jan 2002 15:59:03 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - NOTE ABOUT THE PRODUCT BEING REVIEWED

This review refers to the Delkin DDREADER-12 USB Card Reader for CF Type I and II (found on Amazon.com). This was the only Delkin card reader I could find on this site, so I will post my review of the...

Too bad the live action ruined the movie

Mon, 7 Jan 2002 16:20:51 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author packdragon - It's quite an original idea... let's focus on one white blood cell and create a whole imaginative story about a viral infection. I wanted to see it when I saw the trailers for it because, even if it didn't capture the interest of many others, I saw the...
