I love my quirky little Palm Treo 700w!

Tue, 27 Jun 2006 02:02:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - It's rare that a device changes your habits. I've avoided the whole iPod craze as I see anything with an Apple logo on it as being branded by Satan. But when I read articles about the Palm Treo 700w I decided to stop by the Verizon store and check one...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - When you've been waiting for a movie for nearly a year, you don't expect to be 30 minutes into before seeing either an Alien or a Predator in action, and you sure don't expect it to be over in less than an hour and a half. You don't expect it to take...

Sun, 25 Apr 2004 23:50:43 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - My daughter has two of these trikes, one at home and one at her grandad's home. She loves this toy! She mastered pedalling at 20 months and she climbs on it like a billy goat. The only boo-boos have been from running over her toes when pushing...

Frailty - Bring your thinking cap, and enjoy using it!

Sun, 8 Feb 2004 14:11:29 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - My wife and I both love old Hitchcock movies. Thrillers are a favorite in general, but movies that make you think are really cool. This one not only makes you think, but the ending helps you tie up even the loosest of ends. Flashbacks in movies and...

Thu, 5 Feb 2004 19:43:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - I bought and assembled my system about a year and a half ago. The pieces were all purchased from and so far it's been the single most reliable computer I've ever owned. That's an especially high praise considering that it's been overclocked more than...

Frustrating to set up board with little help in sight.

Wed, 4 Feb 2004 02:47:09 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - I'm a pro. I've been building my own computers for over 10 years and have built dozens, if not over a hundred systems for other people and businesses. I've agonized over 486 systems with cranky sound cards and gloried over the ease of putting together...

Newegg.com: Top notch service and prices, not the best selection

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - In the last year and a half I've made three major purchases with Newegg. The first, in October of 2002 was for the parts that make up the PC I'm typing this on. I was able to put together a workstation class machine with a RAID-0 drive array with two...

I haven't Fallen for this CD.

Wed, 28 Jan 2004 00:34:56 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - It's been over a year since I first heard "Bring Me Back to Life" and I still dig the song, a sign that it will stand the test of time. Recently I was in Wal-Mart and decided to buy an album and had narrowed it down to Three Doors Down and Evanescence...

My toddler loves this toy!

Fri, 23 Jan 2004 01:16:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - Introduction There a lot of educational toys on the market. Most kids have a habit of rejecting them outright if they are too education-focused. Finding the balance between education and fun is the key and this toy is one of the best! My...

DANGEROUS PRODUCT! DO NOT BUY IT!

Fri, 23 Jan 2004 00:27:16 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - I bought this thermometer in October of 2003. It features three different temperature modes: under arm, oral, and anal. It gives results in about 5 seconds... when it works. Ours has been giving us problems for about a month now. I replaced the...

Yeah, it's got a Hemi! Ram 1500 Quad-Cab Laramie

Mon, 3 Nov 2003 20:24:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - I had the truck less than 24 hours and had already been asked twice "Does that thing have a Hemi?" Lucky for me it does or I'd have to dejectedly say "no." Of course, having the Hemi does have more advantages than being able to say "Yeah, it's got a...

Shiver me timbers! MS Bob has invaded my game, argh!

Tue, 30 Sep 2003 03:02:04 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - Playing like a cross between Sim City and a real-time strategy game, Tropico 2: Pirate Cove is an interesting amalgam of planning, strategy, luck, and patience. Unfortunately, there's not a single tactical element to the game. You can't direct anyone...

Basic mower for basic mowing needs.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - I bought one of these mowers last summer to do the finish mowing around the house so I would have to do as much trimming. This mower serves that purpose well.

Sat, 14 Dec 2002 13:03:13 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - Ok, I'm going to spoil the movie in this review. There's just no objective way to review it without doing so because it's actually a pretty good movie until the last 15 minutes.

Those last 15 minutes are SO BAD that it ruins the whole...

Not bad for the price and features.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - I bought this trimmer for my wife. She insisted on doing some of the yard work but my industrial-strength weed-eater made her feel like her filings were coming loose. I went to the Home Depot and found this little guy on display with 2 other cordless...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paytonbyrd - I cannot review this movie without comparing it to the book. That said, I still think the movie is AWESOME.

The most remarkable thing about the book is that I can see Middle Earth and all of it's inhabitants as I read the story. I first read...
