We Love Motorola's Signal Booster

Sat, 15 May 2004 22:30:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - Update on 8/10/04: We had to split the cable at the point of origin so that the cable modem was on a line without the signal booster. The signal booster was producing feedback and cutting off the signal from the cable modem. You may have to make this...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - I received my Foodsaver Vac as a wedding gift. I believe though it was about $100 on my registry at Target.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - I ordered two travelite bags for my husband and myself prior to going to Orlando this year for our annual winter getaway.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - I requested this tooth brush on my wedding registry at the suggestion of my dental hygienist. I believe that the price was around $103, but I didn't personally pay for my tooth brush. I have always been a manual brusher, but after trying so hard to...

Doesn't Completely Meet My Expectations

Wed, 9 Jul 2003 16:33:08 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - I don't know how many of you have watched infomercials of Leslie Blodgett pitching her Bare Minerals. I think the last time I saw her was on QVC. I really wanted to try this line after I heard her. She said the product was all natural minerals, good for...

Fri, 4 Oct 2002 15:17:43 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - I have selectively tried a few moisturizers in my time, especially since I have combination skin with an oily tendency. My pores don't cleanse out easily so I have acne even though I am thirty something. Some of the other moisturizers I have tried...

Generally Good with a Few Exceptions

Tue, 29 Jan 2002 12:44:02 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - I have been using TurboTax Deluxe to do my taxes and my brother's taxes for the past 2 years. Generally, I am pretty happy with the product. However, our taxes are pretty easy to figure out since the most complicated tax form he had was his student loan...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - I had gone to the Canadian side of Niagara Falls recently. I had reviewed some of the reviews on epinions before I went, but I found that, while many of the highlights were mentioned, several helpful hints were not mentioned.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - I just finished reading this book for a class. I have to say that I really enjoyed the book in spite of myself.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - In March, I decided to go back to really getting myself fit this year.

Great Victorian Film on Love

Thu, 3 May 2001 16:28:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - From the directors who brought you "Pride and Prejudice" comes another wonderfully adapted film on the unfinished novel by Elizabeth Haskell. "Wives and Daughters" is quite charming and wistful. It has its soap opera-like moments, but is overall a...

Cyberrebate.com: Cyberrebate.com Disappointment

Wed, 18 Apr 2001 23:28:30 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - I only used cyberrebate.com once, but that was all it took to assure me never to use it again.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - My brother bought a Sony WEGA 32 inch screen TV on Friday this past weekend. We had a 19 inch RCA for the longest time and going to the 32 inch screen TV was a huge leap. My mom said it was like being in a theater. The funny thing is that my neighbor...

Wed, 24 Jan 2001 17:01:23 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - I found a really great one time deal in www.cyberrebates.com. I had to pay 279.00 plus tax up front, but they'd rebate the 279.00 so that really all I paid was the tax (which is the price I inserted in the price field below). I had been debating between...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - My mom was given this Oster Expressbake Bread Machine last Christmas (1999) insisting that she refused to touch it until she retired.

Use Less & Lasts Longer

Wed, 30 Aug 2000 17:51:56 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - In desperation because I ran out of litter, I went down to my local A&P to buy cat litter at 10:30 at night. I picked up a bag of Fresh Step because I remember my brother telling me that Johnny cat or Tidy Cat was no good, and I couldn't remember...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - I have tried very expensive brands of skin moisturizers-Lancome, Clarins, Nu Skin to name a few.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author sungmin_nam - I've been wearing lenses now for a while. I've worn Acuvue then went to Focus Torics which I loved. Then this year, my eye doctor told me that my astigmatism was too bad for the Focus Torics to perfectly correct. So he put me on these Preference Toric...
