rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - I placed an order with circuitcity.com via telephone for a Plasma TV. The representative convinced me to purchase the service plan (which was a whopping $459). After I hung up, I decided to cancel the service plan, however, could not get through to a...

It's a Winner

Mon, 28 Nov 2005 09:48:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - I decided to trade in my Archos AV700 Portable Video Player (7 inch screen) for an IPOD Video. I must admit, I was a little skeptical about this move, but, I travel quite a bit with my laptop, and the Archos added extra weight on my trips. The IPOD video...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - I admit that $1199 is a little steep, but I had just had to have it! My previous experience with GPS was on my PDA and I was pretty pleased with it, however, PDAs freeze up sometimes, and it is not a good idea to leave them in your car with the...

Home away from Home

Sun, 5 Jan 2003 16:30:44 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - I love the Dumont Plaza Hotel. I have stayed there many times, both for business and pleasure. The rooms are so nice, I always wish I was staying longer. This hotel is an all-suite hotel. They offer a studio, junior suite, along with one and two bedroom...

A Pocket Camera

Sun, 5 Jan 2003 16:20:45 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - This camera very easily fits in your pocket, yet it takes quality shots. The 3.2 megapixel sensor allows you to create photo quality 8X10 prints. It also has a 3x optical zoom plus 4X digital zoom, for a total of 12x zoom. That's pretty impressive for a...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - My sister in law and I planned an after New Year get-together for our families recently. I was in charge of selecting the location. I picked Shawnee Mountain Inn because I wanted a resort as opposed to a hotel. I was looking for an indoor pool for the...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - Our company had our annual Regional Christmas Party at this restaurant recently. We were told right off the bat that we would be limited to 2 hours, even though we had 40 people in the party. The staff would not budge from this limit.

Nice to have a sidekick

Sat, 4 Jan 2003 16:36:24 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - I waited months for the release of the T-Mobile sidekick. It was released on October 1st, and I was the first one to buy one at my local T-Mobile store. I find it to be a handy gadget for someone who travels and needs to check email, surf the web, and...

palmOne Tungsten T Handheld: A constant companion

Sat, 4 Jan 2003 16:17:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - I have had many PDA's. I've owned the Sony Clie's, Pocket PC's, and many Palms. This is one of the best. The Palm OS, in my opinion, is very reliable, and the Tungsten is powered by Palm's latest version OS 5. Palm OS 5 has increased performance and...

Awesome!

Sat, 9 Mar 2002 11:22:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - I've had many notebook computers, but this one is the best yet. It is lighweight (about 2.6 pounds), yet it is as powerful as a desktop. It is handsomely designed and very cool looking.

The connectivity options is one of the best features of...

Dell Business Online Store: Nightmare on Elm Street!

Tue, 8 Jan 2002 23:43:29 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - As I write this review, I still cannot believe what my first, and last, experience with Dell has been like. I honestly thought that Dell was a good, solid company. I am not going to write a review about their hardware, because, you see, I never even got...

Fri, 4 Jan 2002 23:59:47 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - I shop on the web quite a bit, and I also do quite a bit of business shipping. When I ship for my business, I do not use UPS. Why? Because my experience with them has been very unpleasant. Here's the problem:

They don't use their scanners like...

Lovely!

Fri, 4 Jan 2002 22:00:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - This movie is not "action packed" or "hysterically funny", as some movies are touted nowadays. It is an incredible movie about someone with an incredible mind. Imagine being so smart that you are trapped in a world of your own? Not being able to stop...

Good to the last drop with some flaws

Sat, 10 Nov 2001 11:01:50 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - I like this coffeemaker quite a bit for several reasons. First off, I am tired of breaking glass carafes. The carafe is made with durable plastic and is thermal, which leads to the next positive feature. The thermal carafe allows the coffee to stay hot...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - I am on the road quite a bit, and I hate being unproductive and bored. In the past, waiting at the airport, in the car, or even having a bite to eat, was pretty unproductive for me, until I got my Blackberry.

Sun, 18 Mar 2001 21:42:54 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - I think this phone is so cool. It is small, nicely designed, and functional. Okay, those of you with large fingers are not going to agree with me. Yes, I admit it, every now and then I will dial a wrong number because the keys are small. There are times...

Not this time Sony!

Sun, 18 Mar 2001 11:41:07 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - I am a real Sony fan. I think they make excellent electronics, however, this time, in my opinion,they lost to Panasonic.

In comparing this portable DVD player to the Panasonic DVD-LV75 and 78, I found that Panasonic's is a much better product...

Fri, 29 Dec 2000 00:12:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - This is an excellent MP3 Player. It is amazing that such powerful, incredible sound can come out of this tiny gadget. The player is well made (although the slot for the memory is a bit flimsy) and a delight to carry. It is handsomely designed and looks...

Tue, 28 Nov 2000 17:42:18 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - I really did enjoy PayPal's services. That is, until they got enough members to have no regard for them anymore.

It all started very nicely. I discovered this service that allows you to send or receive money via the web. If you are an auction...

Sun, 26 Nov 2000 11:29:43 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - I did a lot of research before purchasing this MP3 Player. I even owned the Rio 500 for a little while. I do believe that this is the best of the lot, however, there are still some improvements that would make it better.

Compaq iPAQ H3650 Pocket PC: Oh My Goodness!

Sun, 26 Nov 2000 00:29:56 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tochriste - I really think I am in love with this gadget. I have owned quite a few PDA's and many have been excellent, yet were missing one thing or the other. The Compaq Ipaq 3600 series (no difference between the 3630 and 3650)is truly the best. I was previously...
