Good for young kids

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this as a replacement for an older Leapfrog headphones. These are much larger than standard over the ear headphones; and do not fold; however they're light and seems to be much more solidly constructed. The headband is adjustable and fits comfortably for a 7 year old.
Sound is OK for a children's headphones. Volume seems comparatively lower than other headphones; but is adequate and would limit the volume which is a feature for kids products.

Improvement over previous generation

Compared to a previous gen model, like the 8350; this projector has fast start times and even faster cool times. Image quality is comparable; except for this has 3D capabilities; which I don't find that good in any TV or projector so far. It has a better signal processor with better blacks and better detail. The optical lens shift in my opinion seems less capable (flimsy) than the previous model but still a high point on this unit. This adds better controls like discrete on and off buttons (extremely useful when using an universal remote with macros), it adds keystone correction; which is useful in some cases but should be avoided at all costs (That's what lens shift is for); and finally has R & B alignment (V & H); whereas in previous models was factory set (sometimes less than optimal). It's slightly quieter than previous models as well.
It's bright enough to be used in daylight; with good black levels.

Great service , very good pricing

Needed a temporary extra service for three weeks for relatives. Went with NET10 with an AT&T SIM; because I was also using AT&T on an iPhone 4S. Worked great between northern NH, Boston area and NYC. Good broadband speeds, no issues with voice calls nor with SMS. I was gladly surprised to be able to pick a SIM from all the four major carriers networks. The iPhone which was unlocked had no issues with the SIM; which also comes in every size.
As a nitpick, could not set up 'Visual Voicemail' but I really didn't care for VM.
Internet worked very well the whole time, did not seem slow for regular use (Mostly messaging and maps).
The price is reasonable even compared to a corporate discounted family plan from AT&T; and the service is comparable. Note that I did not try using LTE. The older iPhone 4S is 3G+.

The package has four SIM cards: two for each carrier AT&T, T, Sprint, VZ for every size: Standard and mini-micro. All pre-cut; No need to use scissors :)
Note: Also get a prepaid card otherwise this kit doesn't give you any extra minutes.

Fun for my 6 year old

Used the BD version and is well made as any recent Disney movie.
The movie is entertaining for young kids; with a good age appropriate plot; and most important; interesting references to some of the original Peter Pan characters.

Might not remember the movie; but this album (soundtrack) is one of the few that transcends its time.
The CD itself seems very much unchanged from its original. CD booklet contains lyrics

Game on the go with this Dell Inspiron laptop. An NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti runs most titles, while the two tuned speakers and 15.6-inch Full HD anti-glare narrow-border display deliver an immersive experience. This Bluetooth-compatible Dell Inspiron laptop has a 9th-gen Intel Core i5 processor and 8GB of RAM, handling multitasking without issue, and the 512GB NVMe SSD offers exceptional data access speeds.
which wifi card is there in this laptop? does it have bluetooth 5 or 4? and does it have a ips display with 45% NTSC? the dell website says it has WVA panel
It has a Qualcomm QCA9377 that provides BT 5 and WiFi 802.11ac
Ethernet is a Realtek Gigabit PCIe based
WVA: Wide View Angle. It's not technically IPS, it's a (better) version of TN, and it's not calibrated.
The angle is pretty good, similar to my IPS monitor

isten to music and talk hands-free with these JVC Deep Bass wireless headphones. Powerful drivers deliver sharp, lifelike audio, while the Bass Boost feature helps you feel the beat by enhancing low-end frequencies. These JVC Deep Bass wireless headphones have integrated microphones and on-ear controls for making and receiving hands-free calls.
Also what color does the headphones change to when fully charged ?
Step into virtual reality with this Oculus Rift S PC-powered headset. The advanced optics produce a sharp display with bright, vivid colors, and Oculus Insight tracking removes the need for external sensors to convert movements into virtual reality. This Oculus Rift S PC-powered headset has a fit wheel that secures the headset with a quick twist.
My Gaming PC has no display port output, just HDMI. Will this work with a converter (HDMI to DVI)? Which one is recommended by Oculus?
It would be odd that a gaming PC doesn't have a DisplayPort. If it has USB-C or Tunderbolt ports, get an adapter from USBC-C to DisplayPort. I'm not sure it will work with HDMI because of the refresh rates

Will this work for someone with an IPD greater than 70? What is your IPD and how is it working for you?
It has a single display, and IPD can be adjusted in software. Not ideal, but can work

Will this work with CenturyLink? I didn't see anything on this
Yes , but it depends. I currently have Verizon Fios, so I think it's the same setup.
I initially ordered Fios without a router, with Ethernet directly from the ONT. This definitely works. Connect the ONT's Ethernet cable directly to the internet port. You might have to call the provider to 'release DHCP', for it to work, if replacing another router, or it should work on its own overnight.
If the account is set up so you're required to use their router, then you still can disable WiFi on their router and connect this to one of the ethernet ports on the router. Once you set it up initially via the phone app, change the connection type to 'Bridge Mode' (From the app is simpler, but it can also be done from the desktop).
Note that this is more or less the same with any other WiFi router.
If you then add more mesh nodes, then there isn't anything else special to do here. It will work.

See what you hear on the Echo Show, and enjoy sing-alongs on Amazon Music. Eight microphones on the device pick up your voice from anywhere in the room, meaning you get exactly what you're asking for. The Echo Show is compatible with Alexa for seamless visual enhancement of your experience.
Will it allow multiple timers with a different name, i.e. "Alexa set timer for six hours for meatloaf" and then "Alexa set timer for 4 hours for cake" Then Alexa will in six hours will say meatloaf, and in four hours will say cake.
Yes, Alexa devices support multiple, simultaneous timers. This is how the Alexa platform works, it's not specific to particular speakers.

Prepare a variety of meals faster with this nonstick Ninja cooker. It operates as much as 70 percent faster than traditional methods, and the digital control panel lets you select the function your recipe needs. This 1000W Ninja cooker holds up to 6 quarts and includes a stainless steel rack for steaming.
Can you fry chicken in it?
While it can fit a whole chicken, it does not fry. Look at the "Ninja Foodi" models that are similar to this but add Air Fry and crisp modes.

Get more out of your home theater setup with this Sonos Beam compact smart soundbar. A 5-speaker with five amplifier setup delivers rich, big sound to your room, while the single-cable connection allows for fast, easy setup. Compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant voice control, this Sonos Beam compact smart soundbar lets you control the volume and power with the just sound of your voice.
Can I connect a turntable to the Beam? If so, which ones are compatible?
The beam doesn't have an analog input. It can be done, but you'll need a turntable with a line out (Not phono out) and an analog to TOSLINK adapter (TOSLINK is a digital optical cable).
The Play:5 from Sonos have analog input than can be connected directly to a turntable..

Will this device pair well with the vizio m50-e1? Not sure if my tv has the necessary ports for this device.
You'll need to either use the HDMI port that's labeled 'ARC' on the TV to connect to the soundbar, or use the audio output of the TV with an extra SPDIF to TOSLINK adapter.
