For those of you still paying for Verizon, AT&T, etc, I strongly urge you check out companies like Cricket...I used to pay 110.00 a month and now I pay 35.00 (and brought my Moto Z with me), service area is the same as before.

Iphone can kiss my grits

I know, I know...people told me to get out of the relationship but I couldn't. They didn't see what I did. The years we had spent together, growing, laughing, loving. Sure, the last three years had been tough but I believed it would get better. We had rough patches before (the post-retina years almost broke my bank account for starters). First, I said goodbye to the Pro, next the Pad, and last, the Phone. My iphone was the last connection we had. So, goodbye apple and hello Android, specifically Moto Z with Mods galore!!! I know it might be too soon to say I love you but I do, I love you...
PS The soundboost rocks (one tip, could you make a case that might protect the phone and the mod?

might be okay if you're vision is 20/20...unfortunately, I have one working eye (working with glasses), and one that does not...astigmatism and age (youthful 44) don't help either. I had high hopes but this didn't work at all (blurry, uncomfortable, etc.)

seems to work, for some reason I thought wireless meant it would charge if nearby a charger, not needing to be set on a charger (therefore, did not really understand the purpose of this item as it is just as easy to plug it in to a charger)

For the Microsoft - Surface Laptop – 13.5” Touch Screen - Intel Core i5 or i7– 8GB Memory – 256GB Solid State Drive - Burgundy , I read few reviews online saying it gave trouble while installing and using Google Chrome browser?

I am gonna ask this question again, because the person who answered didn't understand me. Can I use studen coupons, which I have and they can be scanned or I can use the code online, to get a discount on the product which is already on discount?

Only while dreaming :-) read coupon guidelines, "student discount cannot be used on sale prices or open-box"

Take work with you by using this Samsung Chromebook Pro laptop. Its 360-degree hinge lets you use it like a tablet with the built-in pen, and the Intel Core m3 processor and 4GB of RAM handle multiple browser tabs for research. This Samsung Chromebook Pro laptop has 64GB of flash memory for fast boot times and document storage space.
 

Is that possible to run statistical programs? Such as Stata?

No familiar with that one, but you would want a Windows laptop for SPSS

With regard to questions I asked about the Samsung Notebook Pro 9 2-in-1 Touch-Screen Laptop. All inquiries were answered except one: Since the notebook has no Ethernet connection is there an adapter which will allow me to connect via wired Ethernet

Yes, Amazon has it for about 10.00, it plugs into a USB slot

I went to best buy to look at the computer and like it. I played a movie clip from youtube and it was not audible with the volume turned 100% Is there a problem with the sound on the computer or is there a fix?

Sound is fine, just not very loud

Powerful, portable, and personal with a gorgeous 9.7-inch Retina display¹ in a thin, durable aluminum design that weighs just a pound. iPad puts incredible capabilities in your hands with a powerful A9 chip, 8MP camera, FaceTime HD camera, Touch ID, Apple Pay, Wi-Fi, all-day battery life, ² and over a million apps on the App Store. ⁴
 

If I purchase this and I have an Android Phone, is there any way to set the Ipad up to recieve my text messages from my phone to the Ipad? If i'm on this at night, I do not want to be switching from one device to another answering my texts. Thanks

Imessages only works between iPad and iPhone, you would need a third party app like "WhatsApp" or Facebook messenger

I do not understand the price. This is much cheaper than the prices I see at other places. What am I missing?

You're missing the monopolizing relationship between Apple and Best Buy.

This Sony wireless speaker has a Bluetooth connection and dual passive sound radiators for enhanced clarity. This speaker includes an HDMI interface for direct connection to any HDMI-compatible television and can stream music directly from Google Cast or Spotify Connect. The Sony SongPal app makes remote control simple and allows you to use more than one Sony wireless speaker simultaneously.
 

I have a HT-CT 800 Sony sound bar. I’m looking at getting two of the STS-ZR7 to use as rear speakers for my sound bar. My question is do I need Internet/WiFi in order for them to link up and work? I live in the woods lol. I do have hot spot on my phone.

Works with WiFi
