Just Incredible !!
on November 15, 2011
Posted by: newyorkfish
from Near New York City
For many years of my life, I have been using half a dozen products.
* Cell Phone
* GPS Navigation
* iPod Touch
* DVD Player
* Digital Camera
* Digital Camcorder
The iPhone 4S is all of those products (plus many more) all wrapped up into one, so let's dive right in, shall we?
1. Cell Phone -- The call quality is incredible. I'll never forget the first phone call I made (from my car) listening to the incredible sound clarity of the call.
Also, it has the new Bluetooth 4.0 technology and integrates with my vehicle Bluetooth perfectly. In fact, when I use the voice-activated "Siri Personal Assistant", I speak to my car (not the phone) and Siri understands me.
The included earphones includes the speaker, so you can use it hands-free while on the go.
2. GPS Navigation -- With an optional vehicle mount, this will function with the right (optional) application (app). Combined with Siri voice control, this device exceeds my expectations of what to expect from a GPS navigation system.
3. iPod Touch -- The iPhone does everything the iPod Touch can do many times better with a much faster A5 dual-core processor. From listening to your music, to photos, to videos, to web browsing and everything else, you really can carry less and have more.
4. DVD Player -- with the optional A/V adapter combined with an HDMI cable, this has replaced my BlueRay Player for full DVD functionality for a full 1080P HD experience.
Popcorn not included.
5. Digital Camera -- Oh sure, it does not have a mega-zoom lens, but it certainly has 8 megapixels, improved sensor for low-light photography, HDR photo technology and when combined with the (optional) Photo stream service with iCloud integration, all photos taken can instantly sync with all of your other Apple devices.
With this wireless integration, it also replaces memory cards and those dreadful adapters!
Did I mention that it includes two cameras?
6. Digital Camcorder -- Make no mistake about it, this camcorder can record a full 1080P HD video at 30 Frames-Per-Second.
With two cameras, there are more opportunities than ever!
Now you would think with all of those features, that would be the limit, but truth be told -- there are no limits to what you can do.
With the incredible App store, you can purchase additional apps. In fact, many fine apps are actually free of charge.
With the wonderful Siri personal assistant, just speak in natural language to do many tasks.
Need an alarm clock? Just ask, "Siri, wake me up at 5:30 AM tomorrow".
Need an oven timer? Just ask, "Siri, set the timer for 20 minutes".
The possibilities are endless with what you can do.
This product is just incredible and if you are shopping for someone, looking for a gift, if they already own one, there are dozens of fine accessories that would make affordable gifts, because most people will purchase this long before the holidays.
Recommended: Highly
What's great about it: One device that replaces many others, an organized mini-computer
What's not so great: Absolutely nothing wrong with replacing half a dozen products with a single iPhone

It's Magic in the palm of your hand
on November 4, 2011
Posted by: newyorkfish
from Near New York City
Just days before upgrading to OS X: Lion, I decided to compliment my investment by purchasing Apple's Magic Trackpad.
This product is an outstanding compliment to my desktop user experience. In fact, after upgrading to OS X: Lion, I simply couldn't imagine going back to a traditional mouse.
In fact, I sold my previous mouse on eBay after just a few days of use and decided to try the Magic Mouse I bought over a year ago.
To my surprise, the Magic Mouse actually (for the first time) makes perfect sense now. You see, the Magic Mouse is not perfect by itself, but rather a compliment to the Magic Trackpad because while the Magic Trackpad is better at desktop navigation, I find that the Magic Mouse much better at more precise tasks, such as selecting text, graphics and screen captures.
The real compliment is in that both the Magic Trackpad and the Magic Mouse have a touch-sensitive surface that share similar finger gestures.
So, in conclusion, through my discovery I have found that both devices fully take advantage of Apple's latest operating system.
This product would also make a great gift for the Mac user in your life.

Incredible Technology in the palm of your hand
on November 2, 2011
Posted by: newyorkfish
from Near New York City
After owning this product for well over a year, I find that the Apple Magic Mouse is one of the most incredible products sitting on my desk.
Along the Magic Trackpad (another excellent product), makes for the best combination of precision control of your computing experience.
While the Magic Trackpad provides an overall control of the power of OS X: Lion, the Magic Mouse provides the precision needed for selecting text, graphics and screen captures that are pixel-precision accurate.
If used alone, you may experience cramps in your wrist, but when combined with the Magic Trackpad, makes for the precision that you will find yourself using time after time.
I have tried mice from other manufactures, but while they will give you extra buttons, what they lack is the precision to control your mouse pointer without frustration.
Also, the surface of the Magic Mouse allows you to glide your fingers to scroll.
You will be used to finger based gestures from the Magic Trackpad and that is why the Magic Mouse is the perfect companion.
As you switch from one "Magic" device to the other, you will understand this product.
Also, this product makes a great gift for any Mac user who does not have one.

Incredible Value
on October 16, 2011
Posted by: newyorkfish
from Near New York City
When my last phone stopped working after 30 years of service, I knew I had to get a phone of equal value for my hard earned money and after doing extensive research, I have found that the AT&T Corded Trimline Telephone to be of excellent value.
1. I had noticed immediately is that this phone does not have a display -- which means no batteries required.
2. This phone has 10 programmed memory locations for speed dialing.
3. Multiple ringtones.
4. Wall-mountable.
5. Two-Year warranty.
The moment I saw this product at my local Best Buy store, I had asked for a price check (simply because of the incredible price). When the clerk confirmed the low price, I purchased two immediately.
For the low price, this phone is an incredible value for the money and makes a great gift.

A great alternative to Bluetooth
on June 7, 2011
Posted by: newyorkfish
from Near New York City
When I started researching for solutions to the radiation issue associated with cellular phones, I have discovered that Bluetooth actually amplifies the radiation, so my mission to find the perfect solution led me to the Panasonic Hands-Free Headset (KX-TCA93).
This unit works out of the box without the need to charge a battery or worry about signal drops. But the best part is that everyone I spoke to on the very first call didn't realize I was speaking on a headset!
I got compliments with everyone -- it was a 100% success and the best part, I feel more confident speaking with this headset than holding a phone (I keep the phone in my pocket and never have to worry about dropping it (been there, done that)).
This unit has the 2.5mm plug, which is the perfect solution for my cell phone (LG EnV2).
The cable has a clip to secure to my clothing with a volume wheel and a mute button (press & hold).
The ear-clip can swivel to fit over either the left or right ear.
The foam padding sits against the ear and nothing enters the ear canal.
The tight fit did take some time to get used to and believe it or not, but there were times when I didn't even realize that I was wearing it -- the comfort level is also very good.
Since there is no headband, this unit is very portable.
I may purchase a second one as a backup (that's how good this unit really is).
But the best part when compared to Bluetooth headphones is the price!
With a 100% success rate, I shall highly recommend this product.
What's great about it: No need to charge, no cellular radiation, sound and voice quality, volume control, value for the money
What's not so great: Absolutely nothing wrong with such a great product
I would recommend this to a friend!

SynopsisThe classic title Super Mario 64 has been reinvented for the new Nintendo DS. Mario, Luigi and Wario set out from the castle for a royal party with Princess Peach. However, when they arrive they find the castle empty. Meanwhile, Yoshi awakens to find the castle empty with Mario, Luigi and Wario nowhere to be seen. Soon he discovers that Bowser has infiltrated the castle and stolen the Power Stars. He's also imprisoned the Toads in the castle's collection of paintings. While the story is the same, there are new worlds, characters, moves and action-packed mini games to add to the excitement. Take on the role of Mario, Yoshi, Luigi or Wario and use each character's individual talents to find the 150 Power Stars hidden in the castle. Yoshi can eat enemies and turn them into eggs that can be thrown. Mario can punch, kick and wall jump, while Luigi can jump to incredible heights. Use Wario's super strength to break blocks. Locate Power Flowers for even bigger powers, including invisibility, fire breath or floating. Play in Adventure mode and use the game stylus to play new touch-screen mini games. Challenge friends with the Wireless Versus mode, which you can play with only one game card. Enjoy a classic game with an all-new twist.

Better than the original
on January 14, 2011
Posted by: newyorkfish
from Near New York City
Years ago, I practiced the original N64 version for one week prior to buying the DS, so here goes my honest and objective review after owning this game for several years:
One of my favorite surprises in the original was catching the white rabbit and to see that as the very first challenge was a pleasant surprise.
It seems that Mario, Luigi and Wario (The Mario Brothers) have entered the castle and have not returned.
Yoshi is awakened on the castle roof only to discover that his friends are missing.
Yoshi must catch a white rabbit, who holds the key to the castle.
Once inside, the adventure begins.
It seems that there are more locked doors in this new version that require many more keys.
So far, every level has been improved. Added bonuses such as silver stars, (which you must collect a total of five to reveal a power star) is more challenging because if you get hit, one or more of your stars will fall and you must run after them.
There are more power ups and many more hidden secrets.
The most difficult levels have been improved to make navigating the levels easier.
For example, in the ghost house, once you defeat the Big Boo, getting to the top of the ghost house to retrieve the star is a breeze now (HINT: There is a hidden surprise in one of the coins at the top of the roof).
The controls will take time for you to develop your own unique playing style. For example, you can use the stylus to move around, adjust camera angles, etc. or use the control pad.
Getting back to the game, there are more power-ups! Oh and yes, more secret rooms as well!
Some secret rooms require multiple visits as another character because each character has their own unique abilities that can affect the success of obtaining the power star.
The music is outstanding and delivers on the 3D model you see visually, you will also hear audiblly.
The animations are also outstanding as well.
Keep this in mind, if a door requires a certain amount of stars, the very moment you obtain that amount, do not hesitate to enter that particular door because of all the ways to obtain keys and stars.
The power ups are amazing because each character has their own abilities and you will discover what they are and how that can work to your advantage.
In a great many ways, this game is a major upgrade from the original.
It appears that the level designers had fun redesigning the levels and making so many refinements.
Some of the most difficult areas were such a breeze this time around because of the refinements.
As a consumer, I really appreciate the added value of this game and will proudly and highly praise and recommend this product.
In conclusion, when it comes to games (any game in fact), if the impact it has on you keeps you coming back for more, then the value is very high.
This game would make a great gift.
What's great about it: New Characters, Added Challenges, More stars
What's not so great: None, this game is an improvement over the original

Once upon a time, the gaming world was turned on its head by a little gray cartridge for the Nintendo Entertainment System: Super Mario Bros. Now, more than twenty years later, witness the evolution of the platformer that started it all with New Super Mario Bros., the latest installment of the beloved franchise on the Nintendo DS. It may be in incredible 3D, but you'll hearken back to those glorious 2D days of stomping Goombas, kicking turtle shells and chasing mushrooms.Join Mario and Luigi as they jump and climb their way over fields, under water, through castles and into the air. Collect all-new powerups, including the Blue Shell that Mario can ride in and the massive Mushroom that makes him super-huge. Team up with a friend and play as both Mario and Luigi in multiplayer mode. You and Mario will both take a nice little trip back to your roots with New Super Mario Bros.

A New Adventure
on January 9, 2011
Posted by: newyorkfish
from Near New York City
In celebration of 25 years since the release of the original Super Mario Bros. for the Nintendo Entertainment System, we have a brand new side-scrolling classic remake known simply as the, "New Super Mario Bros."
Nintendo made some serious refinements along the way and their efforts really shine through in this classic.
Going back to their roots, Super Mario started out just jumping and discovering secrets. Much like the original, Mario has not discovered how to fly, but he has discovered how to perform some new moves, such as wall-jumping, ground pounding, picking up objects and manages to perform some fancy jumps when running at top speed.
The story is short and simple. The princess has been captured and it's up to Mario (or Luigi) to rescue the princess from the clutches of the evil Bowser and his loyal son, Bowser Jr.
The game begins on level 1 of World 1 and offers the player multiple paths to unlock special areas on the map screen.
An inventory system allows the game to store one power-up item that can be used on demand, making strategy an integral part of the adventure.
Mario will be challenged with new obstacles and new enemies along the way.
Nintendo did an amazing job with the enhanced graphics and animations. In fact, the animations are the smoothest of the entire series and it really shows.
The new music and enhanced sound effects as well as voice-overs breathe new life into an old classic.
This game is perfect for the family as a "G" Rated title that should appeal to just about everyone.
The added star coins allow the player to build some money that can be spent to purchase items, such as power ups, extra lives and something extra special that appears after you have completed the entire game.
There is a bonus mini-game section that offers extensive use of the multi-touch display as well as multi-player mode.
In summary, this game has really been enhanced to provide an extra value with enjoyable characters such as the Koopas, the Goombas, the Piranha Flower, a super-sized Wiggler, chain-chomps and many, many more.
This game would make a great gift.

The Best Investment for Your Home Office
on November 29, 2010
Posted by: newyorkfish
from Near New York City
Despite its large size, the APC Back-UPS XS 1500 is an essential for any home office with connected electronics that would benefit from continuous power (such as a desktop computer (Mac or PC)).
While the price may be a bit much when compared to a general surge protector, this unit provides uninterrupted power that can happen during a power fluctuation or a complete power outage.
I recall a few years ago experiencing a power outage that had the power going out, then on, then out, then on, etc. for approximately 10 minutes.
There was not enough time to do any work on my Mac.
When I switched to my Macbook during that event, the power to my modem and Airport made it impossible to access the Internet.
Don't fool yourself into believing that it would never happen to you.
This investment really is worth the price and the internal battery can be replaced.
Along with the product, you get a generous 3-year warranty (that includes the unit and the battery).
In addition, you get a working unit out of the box. For PC users, you need to download additional software from the APC website.
For Mac users, you already have the software built-in.
To access the UPS, just open System Preferences, Energy Saver -- a UPS tab will appear in the dialog box, so click that to access the features that you can configure.
Under Shutdown Options, you can configure your Mac when to perform a proper shut-down operation.
This unit should be compatible with every Mac out there -- from a tiny Mac Mini to a powerful Mac Pro -- you are covered.
Just be sure to connect the supplied USB cable into your Mac and you are all set.
I want to add that this unit runs very quiet and the display shows many interesting things about the voltage, the input and output wattage, the battery time, charge level, load capacity and so much more.
The power saving features are LCD and Surge-Only outlets.
Some of the outlets will power down when your Mac or PC goes into sleep, standby or shut-down (completely configurable) to conserve power and save you money on your monthly energy bill.
In conclusion, the APC Back-UPS XS 1500 makes a great investment for your home office and makes a great gift.
Best Buy has a generous return policy that makes this product review possible.
Recommended: Yes
What's great about it: Provides uninterrupted power, external display, power-saving features, long battery life, no software required for Mac
What's not so great: Size (it's a bit large)

The best portable multimedia device you will find
on November 14, 2010
Posted by: newyorkfish
from Near New York City
Summary: The Nintendo DSi XL is the largest, most comfortable and enjoyable multimedia playing/recording device for multimedia entertainment.
Holding the DSi XL in my hands for the first time was what sold it for me. The larger size with the texture feel was very solid and the surprise of the larger screens is really noticed in person (more so than by reviewing screen shots and watching videos online).
The most difficult part of the decision was the color.
I went back and forth. In fact, I even considered the collector's edition (red).
My final decision for midnight blue just came to me as the most pleasant color combination for my personal choice.
After opening the package, I was delighted by the large stylus -- very comfortable to grip and my most enjoyable feature.
One of the first things I noticed was that the brightness was just one notch below the brightest setting, making it on par with the brightest setting on the DS Lite.
After charging the unit for the first time, it was time for the first test -- the battery performance.
After completing an entire game of the New Super Mario Bros, I have concluded immediately that the battery performance is better than the DS Lite.
In addition to better battery performance, the audio performance from the built-in speakers really are improved significantly. I notice a much richer sound from the music to the effects.
After playing around with the built-in camera and snapping a few photos of myself, I am planning on taking this with me on my next trip to the city to snap photos for it.
You can snap background photos, use them as frames, filter out the area you want to insert your face and you have a nice package.
This use of the dual cameras is really appreciated and makes it so much better.
The power button has two features.
The first feature is a system reset.
For example, if you have completed playing a game and wish to return back to the menu, just briefly press and release the power button.
To shut the system off, just press and hold the power button until the power goes off.
When recharging the system, you can operate the system.
Please note that the power needs to be off when you insert or remove a game cartridge or an optional media card.
When an optional SD or SDHC memory card is added, you can copy your pictures to the card.
In fact, the optional memory card can also store your audio as well.
Just be sure to copy your music in AAC format and you will be prepared to play.
Setting up for wireless Internet couldn't be easier.
Just 5 taps of the menus established a secure connection with my wireless router (an Airport Extreme Base Station).
The next part of the fun is downloading content (games, games and more games) !!
Okay, so I got carried away there, but I think you'll understand when you give it a try because you can download games to the built-in memory.
You get started with 256 MB of memory (some of which are occupied by three free games (Brain Age Express: Math, Brain Age Express: Arts & Letters & Photo Clock)).
To get started, you will need to purchase points.
There are two ways to do this.
The first method is to purchase a Nintendo Points Card (typical cards offer 2000 Nintendo Points).
The second method is to purchase directly from the DSi XL itself.
If you chose the first method, you will find a grey section on the back of the Nintendo Points Card.
Using a coin, just gently rub it off to reveal a code.
I recommend writing this code on paper.
Next, you will need to redeem those points (which is a menu option from the Nintendo DSi Shop).
Please note that you cannot combine (or share) points between two systems.
If you are a Nintendo Club member, you can link your account to your DSi XL. Once linked, you can register all purchased products (except for the card or any downloaded content) for points.
Unfortunately, content that you download will not offer any points, but will generate a survey after a few days.
By filling out the survey for each and every game you download, you will earn 10 coins.
The coins can be redeemed for prizes.
Another benefit of the optional SD or SDHC memory card is that you can copy your downloaded games to the card, then delete from the main memory to free up storage for future downloads.
Please note that downloaded content cannot be played on other Nintendo products. The content that you download is playable only on the system that you used.
The Nintendo DSi XL comes with dual screens (with the lower screen being an interactive touch screen), dual cameras, a mic (for voice recording and for select games) as well as an expandable memory port for SD and SDHC media.
With a growing library of titles, both in cartridge format as well as online -- the Nintendo DSi XL is a system that you can be proud to own for yourself and also makes a great gift.

should I buya dsi xl or wait for the nintendo 3ds ?

If you want the largest handheld system, then I recommend the Nintendo DSi XL.

If you are willing to wait a few months, then I recommend the Nintendo 3DS (which has the ability to play the Nintendo DS games), but is smaller in size.

It's all about choice in size.

where can I find original nintendo ds ?

The original Nintendo DS was officially replaced by the Nintendo DS Lite (which has the same features, but in a smaller package with larger and brighter screens).

If you want a larger handheld system, then I recommend the Nintendo DSi XL (the largest Nintendo handheld system).

can you use gameboy games in a nintendo ds or dsi?

The Nintendo DS Lite is the only system that has a game port that allows cartridges from the Nintendo Gameboy Advance SP series.

The original Nintendo Gameboy games are not compatible.

Compare DSi-DSi-Lite

What are the benefits to the more expensive one?
The more expensive Nintendo DSi has two cameras that allow you to take pictures, edit them with fun overlays and share them with friends as well as optionally transfer to your computer with an optional SD media card.

Also, you can download games from the DSi Shop with it's built-in memory.

In addition, the two screens are larger and brighter than the original Nintendo DS.

For further details, I recommend visiting Nintendo on the web.

DSi Camera question CREEPY?

Having a camera on the inside of the dsi, does this mean some hacker could find a way to watch you if you are with in range of a wireless signal???
The DSi camera can only be operated by the user for snapping photos or playing related games that require the camera.

How do you fix a d-pad on a Nintendo DS Lite?

My d-pad is busted when you push the left and down buttons. The up and right buttons are alright, but left and down won't work anymore. How do I get it fixed?
You need to go to the Nintendo.com website, click on the Support tab, then click on Troubleshooting & Repairs to proceed with service for your Nintendo DS system.
