So, I was a bit disappointed when I first opened the cylinder to find this teeny little speaker on the inside. To connect the speaker initially, you have to download the UE Boom app and then immediately my phone connected to it. The feeling of being put off by its tiny size was put to rest almost immediately. The bells playing as it powered up sounded very loud and clear so we knew it was going to be special. This speaker sounds awesome!!!! We have purchased a couple of other bluetooth speakers (just below this price range) that sound pretty darn good but this one really shows you what is missing in those.
The battery life was at 30% when we first started to use it and we listened to it, at a pretty high volume, for almost four hours (itunes radio) and it had only dropped battery life by 1%!!!! I believe that I will be able to get 15hrs or more of continuous use from this speaker on a single charge as advertised.
I am picking up a second speaker today. I cannot wait to experience the double up feature while we are all celebrating outdoors this weekend. You will not regret the cost of this speaker, it totally delivers on everything you want a speaker at this price point to do.

Nice but Tiny

This is a very nice protective case and I especially like the hard shell but buyers should know that it will only hold a small compact camcorder and nothing else. I purchased this online along with the Canon HF R52 HD camcorder. I really like the case so I have decided to keep it but I cannot add the adapter or any of the other cables in the case with the camera. I don't even think it will hold an extra battery. But, very nice for short trips out where you don't expect to need anything other than your camcorder.
What's great about it: The hard shell, compact case
What's not so great: tight fit with just camera

Since adding a smart TV and two smart blu-ray disk to our line up of tech products, we found our wireless connections dropping very frequently, streaming movies would stall/ buffer and my sons Xbox would cut off mid games. Our previous router, a Linksys, worked amazingly until just recently. After going online to forums trying to troubleshoot the connectivity issues, it was decided that it could no longer handle the demands of the household that included three ipads, three iphones, a Galaxy S4, a notebook computer, a kindle, a satellite radio, the game plus the three new (smart) additions. We researched what would be the best router to handle all those wireless devices with many of them being in use at the same time and landed on this one.
The hubby gawked at the price but agreed to it anyways. I had the router set-up in minutes and decided fairly quickly that this thing is worth its cost. We were zooming at speeds I didn't realize we had. The kids were quite happy with the number of bars they gained while in their rooms where before they had hardly any signal strength. We did a test run with all gadgets on and running for 30 full minutes and we didn't encounter a single issue with speed, loading or buffering.
If you are thinking about this router even just a little bit, just bite the bullet and go for it. YOu won't even miss the $200 dollars once you see what this router can do.

iPad® Air is 20 percent thinner1 and weighs just one pound, so it feels unbelievably light in your hand. It comes with a 9.7-inch Retina display, the A7 chip with M7 motion coprocessor, ultrafast wireless, powerful apps, and up to 10 hours of battery life.2 And over 475,000 apps in the App Store are just a tap away.3

I sold my mini to purchase the iPad Air. I love the weight and size of the device but I will say aside from the retina display and the increase in screen size for reading, if I had a do over- I'd saved my $$$.

I love the commuter cases. It allows me to protect my iPhone and keeps it slim enough that I can slip it into my pockets. Doesn't add very much bulk to the phone or alter it's appearance. I love this color combo.

I have been looking to purchase a TV for our game/ entertainment room for some time now. I have been pouring over reviews, ratings and specs for months. I wanted something the kids could easily connect their game consoles to but also a TV for viewing when adult company is over. I decided on this model and am very happy so far. The set-up was easy. Accessing Netflix, Hulu & Pandora went smoothly. There is almost a 3D feel when watching movies on this screen. The 47inches is ample viewing space and yet not so bg to block off too much space.
Like other reviewers, I agree that the remote would be better if there was a point & click capability instead of scrolling through and typing passwords, web addresses etc. All in all, very happy with the purchase.
Internet content most enjoyed: Pandora, Netflix, Hulu

Initially I was worried when this was delivered in a very damaged box. I immediately opened it to inspect the parts and while there was some damage, it managed to be to the back or unseen sides. This stand is beautiful. It is very sturdy and not at all like the plastery board type pieces you normally buy in a box and have to put together. It took me about three hours to assemble but the instructions were very clear and all I needed was a phillips head screwdriver and a hammer. The doors were a little tricky to get right (the only part the hubby had to assist with). Im amazed at the quality of this piece. 4.5 stars!!!

I've purchased quite a few invisi-shields for me and my family. They are easy to install and they hold and feel great. I have always installed my own and I seldom have a bubble and if so it does heal itself in a day or so. The HD Shields I purchased for the 5 and my daughters 4S is awesome, it's as close as you can possibly get to having nothing on the screen and it still be protected.
The key is to spray enough of the solution on the shield that it will allow you to move it around until you have it placed just where you want it. This creeped me out the first time I did it but voila, everything worked out perfectly and my device was unharmed. Installed my screens and really - I use my phone immediately, didn't give me one problem and my screen is as clear as you can imagine.
What's great about it: Long lasting, really protects your devices, easy to install
What's not so great: price - but then you get what you pay for.

Most power cords are interchangeable and as long as it fits properly, absolutely.

how long do you have to wait between snapping pictures?
I want to buy a digital camera that I can shoot a picture and be able to shoot another picture when I want to instead of having to wait between shots?
The Canon SD880IS has a continuous shoot mode and I was able to run behind my three puppies and get some really great shots without having to wait.....
