iPhone 5 features a 4" Retina display, the powerful A6 chip, an 8.0MP iSight camera with panorama, ultrafast wireless, iOS 6 and iCloud. Yet it's the thinnest, lightest iPhone ever.
As always, Apple delivers with the iPhone5 -- great design -- noticeable difference in weight from the 4/4S -- never have to reboot with iOS -- great memory management -- battery life can be managed with disabling unwanted notifications/location services -- perfect smart phone

What's great about it: iOS is most stable mobile OS out there, new physical dimensions are great
What's not so great: battery life, but that's an issue with any smart phone today
Love this case -- "minimal" case, so it shows off the great design of the iPhone -- love how it's transparent -- great grip, and still slides in/out of pocket easily --
Only downside is that you have to take it off every couple weeks and clean out the dust -- since it's clear, you see ALL dust (which might not bother some people -- I'm kinda OCD about that!!) -- but otherwise, case is perfect, so I still give it 5 stars!

Slim case, so it's unobtrusive -- shows off the great iPhone design since it's such a "minimal" case -- slides in and out of pocket easily but still has a great grip

This ARRIS SURFboard cable modem uses DOCSIS 3.0 technology to ensure speed that lets you surf the Web and download videos, music and images with ease. The integrated wireless network (802.11n) is backward compatible with 802.11b/g access points
Have had three different Motorola Surfboard modems in the past, and they've all been great -- thought I'd take the risk with this one and get the modem/wifi router 2-in-1 -- big mistake -- Motorola is great with cable modems, but no so much in wifi or routing/LAN admin --
After calling my ISP to provision the modem, I went to access the web console to configure, and changed its default local IP to the subnet I prefer -- it tool 5 mins before it applied (in the meantime, I'm calling my ISP thinking the provisioning was unsuccessful) -- finally took, and I could access -- ok -- configured wifi -- successfully connected all my devices in the house -- wifi glitched out after an hour -- had to reset the device (which resets the modem every time since it's a 2-in-1) -- ok --
Next, DHCP table would not show all my devices, even though all were connected -- ok glitchy -- proceeded to create 2 DHCP reservations -- 10 mins later, the 2 reservations I created disappeared from the config!!
Called Motorola about this, and they said yeah it should not be doing that -- could have been a faulty device, but then read some bad reviews on this device on amazon -- sorry Motorola, I still love your cable modems, but will steer clear of your 2-in-1 devices!

What's great about it: Nice modem for WAN connectivity
What's not so great: Terrible wifi and routing functionality
Keep your iPhone 4 or 4S secure with this LifeProof case that features polycarbonate, polypropylene and thermoplastic elastomer materials to help protect against water, dust, dirt, snow, shocks and impact.
Got this for my daughter since it's pink, and was supposed to be waterproof -- however, for the price, even though it claims to be waterproof (returned it before I had a chance to test that), the case design is non-functional -- there is a little plastic screw that you have to remove to plug in your head phones, and it's just "loose" (meaning nothing tethering it to the case) -- they give you an extra one, in case you lose it -- worst part though is the opening for the phone charger -- to unplug the charger from the phone, because of the flap that covers that portion of the phone, added to the thickness of the case, you have to pull on the actual cord of the charger itself, which eventually will ruin your charger -- that was a deal breaker

Still, very glitchy LAN functionality

Thanks for your input -- you must've lucked out with your 3 devices!
As I mentioned, I did indeed contact my ISP to provision the modem, which you are correct, is a mandatory step when changing modems -- my ISP absolutely requires the device's new MAC address and serial number (if not, upon opening a web browser, you are immediately taken to a company landing page stating to contact them) --
But, WAN connectivity aside, it was the unexplainable behavior of the local DHCP table which was the deal-breaker for me -- I had numerous devices that were successfully leased an IP address by the router, but the DHCP table would only reflect 2 or 3 devices at a time, and it was random which device it would show -- so there was no way of accurately monitoring what devices were connected to my LAN --
Plus, I have some static routing in my home config, so I like to utilize DHCP reservations for certain devices -- after setting up 2 reservations, the corresponding devices were successfully leased the intended IP addresses -- however, about an hour later, those reservations literally disappeared from the config!
Anyway, I probably just got a dud (as Motorola tech support stated), but did not want to chance it further --
So for now, I'm back to my old Motorola SB6120 (which is at least still a DOCSIS 3.0 modem), and my 5-year old Buffalo wifi/router -- going to eventually get the Motorola SB6141, since as I said, I know Motorola is solid for WAN connectivity!
