It just doesn't work

Fri, 14 Dec 2001 14:23:44 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author teddybear8 - I was looking for a camcorder and found that Photoalley has some good deals. Although it has only Canon, JVC and Panasonic, I think it was fine because I don't want to pay a lot for a Sony. So I picked a Panasonic camcorder and also a Panasonic battery...

Found they actually cheat the user. It will usually count less than one third of the time you surf. At that...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author teddybear8 - When so many web site starting to be partner with i-driver, it

NetZero: So-so ISP

Thu, 17 Aug 2000 15:15:02 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author teddybear8 - Netzero looks cool and professional in many aspects. The website is good and the surfbar looks nice. But I don't like it keep asking me to click on ads. Every 20 mins, I will get the message no matter if I am using the internet or not. I agree that it...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author teddybear8 - I don't know why there are somebody who doesn't like Altavista.
