Not what I expected.

I use it in...:Apartment
Very nice try by Netgear, but it's a big fail. After numerous speed tests for days, the speed increased only 8-10% when adapter was plugged in. Had this been $30 or under, I would have kept it. My laptop is not able to run the 5.0 Ghz bandwidth, only the 2.4 Ghz bandwidth. So, I was thinking that with this adapter that my laptop will run on 5.0 Ghz, and have faster speeds. Well, this device did speed up my connection, but not enough to warrant the $70 price tag. Check out my review on YouTube (http://youtu.be/9I8BjFGnWEA).

What's great about it: Great idea, but...
What's not so great: Speeds did not increase enough.

Overpriced and pitifully average.

How Often Used:Less than once a week
Very average, overpriced headphones. I can not recommend these. They sounded average & did not excel in any particular genre that I listened to, including rap, r&b, country, classical & pop. For $150, you'd expect more. Beats By Dre is relying solely on it's name to sell headphones to the masses. I can not begin to tell you how disappointed I was in these. The secure-fit tips are a very nice addition, but the high price and average sound should deter a ton of potential buyers. Check out my review on YouTube (http://youtu.be/C8zlHOfVS6U).

Simplistic set-up for awesome HDMI cable.

This is the exact HDMI cable that the Mars rover Curiosity used to record HD videos and send them back to earth. NASA knows its tech, so I had to get it. I needed to get a pure HDMI signal outside, about 60 feet. Instead of going wireless for about a seventh of the price, I wanted to drag a cable all throughout my house. Even though we have about 5 young kids that could possibly trip over cable, I needed the best signal possible. And the price. I know it seems very expensive, but everyone now is über jealous of me. They now know I have money to blow, which is really the main reason I got this cable. And this is the second HDMI cable that I got recently that I spent over $1000 on. Too bad I do not have a TV to connect either cable to. But to be able to say I spent over $1000 on two seperate HDMI cables really puts me in the reticle of every hater on my block.

What's great about it: Low price, easiest installation of all HDMI cables.
What's not so great: Does not come in eggshell white.

No reason to get Apple TV or Roku. I got the Roku, but returned it. I was not ready to spend $100 to watch Youtube on my tv. But at $35, this is totally worth it. Very easy to set up. Now I do not need a smart tv. Google is going to force Apple to invent something new, if they can.

I got this for my Fujifilm camera. It's perfect. What's even better is I used $5 reward certificate and got this thing for $5. It's not like I was looking out in space with camera or taking photos professionally. I do video reviews of the products I purchase from Best Buy and the camera needed a tripod. But I did not want to spend an arm & a leg for tripod. Come to think of it, I would not have wanted to spend either appendage for a tripod. I guess I was lucky t get it for the cheap. I've had it for over a year now and it has not failed me.

So, I wanted a laptop that was fast, light. This comp weighs only 3.3 lbs. If you are looking for a comp to just surf the net and itunes, get this comp. I do not do games, etc. There is no dvd/cd player. But who really needs that? For $588, this is perfect. I would've loved a backlit keyboard, but the HP that had a backlit keyboard was over a pound heavier and almost double the price. Not looking for cheapest laptop, just the lightest. I returned the Toshiba Portege because it got really hot and was noisy. This comp is very quiet. It came with 4gb of RAM. But you can add another 4gb for only $25. And it has Beats audio. It's very slick looking as well.
