This sleeve is a perfect fit for my Surface 4 Pro. Lightweight, durable, and a soft inner lining. It was just what I was looking for.

Upgraded from my original Surface Pro. Everything you would expect from a Surface...basically a "laptop" tablet that you can do real work on. Works perfectly, only con is that the battery life is not too great, but probably due to the settings that I am using. If you use battery saving settings (I don't) you should probably be just fine.
Plenty of processing power, RAM, and storage. A little pricey, but has everything that you need in a light, portable package.

Was looking to replace my Netgear "N" router that was several years old with a new "AC" router to get better range and wireless speeds throughout our new house. Also picked up a couple of Netgear AC adapters for two of our wireless PC's.
In a word...WOW! I should have upgraded a long time ago. Wireless speeds immediately tripled and the signal strength extends halfway down the street. Everything connected right away and the throughput is outstanding. Highly recommend this router.
Only downside (but not a serious problem) is that it is BIG. I usually have the router on my desk in the room where the cable service enters the house, but this router has no vertical stand option and it's so big I had to mount it on the wall.

Sonos Connect: Add new features to your old stereo or home theater equipment; use this Sonos Connect component to integrate your external amplifier, receiver or powered speaker into a wireless audio system.

Hooked it up to the receiver of our whole-house sound system, joined it to our Wi-Fi network, and we were good to go. Everything is done via a phone/tablet, so the whole process is wireless, except for the physical audio connection to the receiver. It's an expensive product, but well worth it!
Only Downside: If you want to connect it to a different Wi-Fi network after you initially set it up, you have to physically hook it up to the new network's router via Ethernet. There should really be an option to "forget/delete" the existing network within the app and then be able to choose a different Wi-Fi network.

Enjoy your media with this Samsung BD-H5900/ZA Blu-ray player. To build a complete 3D home theater system, we recommend you purchase a 3D TV, 3D glasses designed for the TV, high-speed HDMI cable and an A/V receiver that is compatible with 3D products.

Already had a similar model Samsung DVD player in another room that we really like, but is no longer available. This model has all of the same features and operations that we were looking for from our other player, so it was a no-brainer to pick up this one.

Bought this TV for my daughter's bedroom to replace an old 32" JVC that gave us many years of great use. We already had a Samsung model UN40H5050 in another bedroom that we have had for a few years and have really liked it. This UN40H5203 has the same great picture quality and ease of use, plus adds all of the Smart TV features to the mix.
Setting it up and connecting it to the network was a breeze, and after a few picture adjustments it looks terrific. Great value for the money.

Hi, I need to replace my old external Hard Drive and I want to put it on this SSD. Can I purchase a Docking Station and use it just like an external SSD and access everything through USB port? A bit confused how it all works.
Yes, you can put it in an external enclosure and use it just like you would use a standard HDD as an external drive. The only issue would be lining up the data/power connectors on the SSD to those on the external enclosure, if you are trying to use a standard 3.5" HDD external enclosure. Best to get an external enclosure specifically made for 2.5" and/or SSD drives, then it should be no problem at all.

Can this device pick up the signal from my at&t hotspot and then can I plug in my laptop thru an ether cable at the same time
No it can't connect to your hotspot. It can only connect to an internet connection through a modem.

Enjoy HD programming with the Roku Streaming Stick. Plug it into any flat-screen television that has a built-in USB port to view streaming media.

Can I stream with my cell internet, or do I HAVE TO have wifi?
You should be able to stream over your cell internet. During the Roku's setup, it searches for WiFi networks to connect to, and if you phone's hotspot is turned on and it's nearby, the Roku should pick it up. Whether the phone's WiFi signal will be strong enough to connect, and it's speed will be fast enough to support smooth video streaming will be a matter of trial and error.

what is the difference from Roku Premium + and this model ?
The Premiere+ is an actual STB. I has connections for HDMI, Ethernet, etc. The Streaming Stick is literally like a large flash drive that you plug directly into the TV's HDMI port. The only connector that it has is a micro-USB port for power. Operationally, they both work the same, but the Premiere+ supports 4K UHD and HDR, whereas the stick only supports up to 1080P resolution.
