rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - Ericsson does it again with the new T39. This phone is the successor to the incredibly popular T28. I have been using the phone for over 3 weeks and am happy to report that I found no problems! I will review each aspect of the phone below.

Toshiba does it AGAIN!

Thu, 28 Dec 2000 02:06:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - OK, let me start by saying that I am the type of user who chooses portability over power. My previous laptops were Librettos (may they rest in peace) then the recent Portege 3110 and now this bad boy. They have change everything I complained about the...

Samba "Buy our maracas" Amigo

Thu, 28 Dec 2000 01:50:44 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - I recently got this game for the holidays along with 2 sets of Maracas. The game seems pretty pointless without them. Now I can samba all night long! My initial complaint however is that the sensors aren't always accurate. Even with the height...

Nokia 8290 Vs. Ericsson T28W +Nokia Review

Thu, 21 Sep 2000 23:47:22 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - OK, first I'll review the 8290, then I'm going to put it head to head against the T28, which I also own. Hopefully this will help buyers choose between 2 of the lightest phones in the world (the 3rd being the Motorola V3682).

Review of Nokia...

Great CDR Drive!

Wed, 23 Aug 2000 00:06:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - When I purchased this almost 6-9 months ago, I was looking for the BEST, most RELIABLE CDR Drive I can find. Well, After using it (heavily) for all this time, I'm happy to report I am very happy with it. I leave my PC on 24/7 and this drive NEVER...

Unmatched clarity, newer IS better!

Sun, 6 Aug 2000 04:45:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - These are the best sounding computer speakers I've ever heard. Hands down. I don't care about what technologies are used, or how you're "supposed" to place them, they just KICK ASS! I recently upgraded to these coming from the Boston...

Sun, 6 Aug 2000 04:17:16 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - My only other cellular phone review listed on epinions is for my Nokia 6190, which is an excellent GSM phone. After 2 years of service, I finally found a better one. The Ericsson T28 World!

Let's start by saying that "Don't judge this...

Archived Computer Hardware Reviews: Better than Proxim!

Wed, 14 Jun 2000 22:52:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - If you are in the market for a wireless network for either your home or business, then the Lucent Wavelan Orinoco Cards are for you. They beat out the proxim symphony in every way! For $160 per card, you get a better range, no external antenna needed,...

Not worth it, horrible customer service!

Wed, 14 Jun 2000 10:48:21 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - I honestly can't believe how many people are rating Optimum Online so high. My problems began 2 years ago with this service and are still not fixed to this day. The service is UNRELIABLE. Sure, it's fast if it works, but I'd rather pay for a...

Who needs a laser? We've got balls!

Wed, 14 Jun 2000 10:03:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - I've already written a negative review on Microsoft's horrible Intellimouse Explorer, so what AM I using? Logitech's Wireless MouseMan Wheel!! I can't say enough good things here about Logitech and their products. First let's start with the mouse...

Umax Ugate 3000 Firewall: They are NOT all created equal!

Tue, 6 Jun 2000 17:47:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - Be careful when shopping for a Cable/DSL router! Like many consumers I was quick to purchased the Linksys Etherfast, and I had many problems with it. However, this review is about the UMAX, so let's discuss why it's better. First off, Why did I buy...

Overlooked hit!

Thu, 3 Feb 2000 14:14:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - I love this game. It was passed over by so many reviewers, it's a shame. Take a smash em up concept from demolition derby and make it into a race! It's really great, it's a lot of fun. Once you realize you can't just speed through to 1st place and...

Archived Computer Hardware Reviews: Not built well

Thu, 3 Feb 2000 02:08:07 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - I got my Media Theaters from Gateway, about a year ago. I was very happy with the sound, however i feel the design leaves much to be desired. If you frequently disconnect and reconnect the speakers, you can EASILY push the pins on the back of the...

Thu, 3 Feb 2000 02:00:44 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - I've had my symphony wireless network in place for close to 6 months now and I've had no problems. The software is very easy to install (although it requires 4 reboots! no kidding!). I carry my laptop around the house with no interruptions in service...

Greatest phone ever?

Thu, 3 Feb 2000 01:49:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - I purchased my 6190 when I signed up with Omnipoint over a year ago. This is easily the greatest phone I have ever used. Nokia's operating system is so simple to use and easy to understand. After learning the functions, you can easily pick up and use...

Not worth the money...

Thu, 3 Feb 2000 01:36:15 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author rshapiro - I bought this mouse thinking that the laser would be the greatest thing since sliced bread. Well, it's not that great. I tried it on a hardwood surface on a desk and also on a black formica surface and nothing works well. The mouse is jumpy, skips and...
