Same game as usual. I get the updated game every year around holiday time because we have a lot of family that like to play it. The mobile phone option is a bit silly though, a couple of people tossed their phones across the room on some of the dance moves. The good thing is its not required. but if you don't have a Kinect, it's good.

Good since it's wireless, but quality not great

I've had powerbeats in the past, the first version that came out years ago. My complain then was that the sound was a bit "tinny" and the bass wasn't thumping enough (something you would expect with anything from the Beats line). Well, sad to say, these are the same thing, nothing has changed (except the price being higher). I won't return them because I do like the comfort and good for athletics, but overall just not thrilled with the quality. The in ear buds I bought last were Jaybirds, and the quality was a TON better (but I didn't like the feel in the ear unfortunately). Anyway, if you want Bluetooth in ear buds for athletic reasons (working out etc.) then they are fine, but if you are really into the quality of the music and are a more laid back listener, I wouldn't go with in ear buds at all, go with the over the ear or on ear Bluetooth beats. Those are good (I have them too).

Pretty straight forward, it's great. But you have to be diligent and record your meals in the app. Also if you don't plan on sleeping with it or checking your heart rate regularly, then you can just get the Charge (without the HR).

Not much more to say as there is really no other choice of keyboard to use :). My only complaint is that the overall cost between the Surface and the keyboard is just too high. The keyboard should be priced lower if the price of the Surface is going to remain high. I hope Microsoft realizes this and does something about it as I feel this is what has killed the buzz in the past over the Surface RT and Pro.

The surface pro 3 is is a great product. If you are looking for something in between a PC and a laptop, and know you will only be using it as such (e.g. don't expect to play hard core games on this) then you will be delighted. Super fast startup and shut down times. Lack of storage is not really an issue just use the microSD slot to hold your music, movies, etc and you are in business. Very impressed.. Should cost a bit less however, but overall I am happy.

There's no game quite like soccer, you think as you join your teammates for another brutal match. As you bask in the heat of the sun and the uproarious chants of the fans, it's almost overwhelming.

Seconds after the kickoff you and 10 teammates — the best players in the world — claim possession and weave intricate patterns that decimate your opponents' defense. You deftly maneuver around another player and take the pass coming your way. One powerful kick is all it takes — the ball sails home past the goalie. Once more, you've proven you have what it takes to dominate the match.Step into the drama and action of soccer like never before with FIFA 15 as you experience all the furious competition of the game rendered in breathtaking realism. Battle the world's best players and witness their expressions of intensity, celebration and defeat detailed in lifelike accuracy with Emotional Intelligence modeling. Contend with the conditions of the pitch and realistic interactions between players, the ball and their environment with Physically Correct Contacts that re-create dribbles, touches, passes, shots and deflections in relation to the position of the body part or object with which they connect. Plunge into the physicality of head-to-head competition with intense Man-to-Man Battles that test your skills and endurance and establish dominance with Full-Body Defending. Move fluidly through opposing players on the path to the goal with responsive player control. Feel the heart-pounding rush at the heart of the game as you're surrounded by region-specific behaviors, cheers and chants from the crowd and insightful commentary with Dynamic Match Presentation. Immerse yourself in lifelike authenticity with grass that responds to the progress of a match with Living Pitches and Authentic Player visuals that ensure you don't miss a single detail. Take to the pitch with three friends in offline play or go online to compete with 21 other players. Victory is waiting to be seized — are you ready to make your move?

Add versatility to your wireless Apple in-ear headphones with these convenient Insignia AirPods (1st and 2nd Generation) accessories. The ear hooks keep the AirPods securely attached to your ears while on the move, and the silicone cord keeps them together. These Insignia AirPods accessories include high-quality tips in three sizes to customize your fit.
 

Can these hooks be used on the regular non wireless ear phones they Iphone comes standard with?

No. You wouldn't be able to get them on the bottom of each ear piece, unless you folded the wire up into it and I think that would be messy and not worth it.

Metal means power, and this metal watchband for the Fitbit Blaze gives you a dominating accessory. Metal links feel smooth against your skin and frame the Fitbit Blaze to keep it absolutely secure, even when you receive notifications from your smartphone. Enjoy the complete water resistance of this metal watchband for the Fitbit Blaze.
 

Is it waterproof? Can you go swimming with it?

Its a stainless steel band so probably not a problem, however the Blaze documentation suggest NOT swimming with it. It's water resistant, but not water proof.

Can the band be changed?

You don't buy it with the stainless steel band, what you are looking at is just the band. You buy the Blaze first then whatever bands you want (like the SS band as an example). Very easily to switch the Blaze between bands.

SoundLink® Mini Bluetooth® speaker II delivers full sound with dramatically deeper lows than you'd expect from a speaker that fits in the palm of your hand. And because it's wireless and ultra-compact, it's easy to take Bose® sound anywhere. With the built-in speakerphone you can take calls out loud with clear sound. And voice prompts make Bluetooth pairing easy. The SoundLink® Mini II can play unplugged for hours and be charged from most USB power sources.
 

Can two blu tooth Bose speakers be used at the same time using the same source for music(iPad for example) ?

I am wonderig if I can use a second speaker in an adjacent room while playing music from my Iphone, etc. Can two Blu Tooth Boste speakers be linked somehow? LIke one in the kitchen and one in the dining room at the same time?
Thanks for any assistance you can provide...
No not really. You would want Wi-Fi speakers, something like Sonos or even something Bose might offer (that isn't Bluetooth). Plus Bluetooth range is limited to about 30 feet so you would have problems there I'm sure.

This Insignia™ NS-PD94502 adapter allows you to connect your computer's DisplayPort interface to an HDMI type-A input and supports up to 1920 x 1080p resolution, so you can enjoy sharp visuals.
 

HDMI to laptop

My laptop does not have an HDMI port. I need to plug an adapter into the USB port so that I can connect an HDMI cable. Is this the correct device?
No, this is USB to DISPLAYPORT which is not HDMI.

With an operating speed of 1.6GHz, this PNY MN8192SD3-1600 8GB PC3-12800 DDR3 laptop memory boosts performance to help ensure your computer operates at an optimal level and multitasks efficiently.
 

Put new ram and it won't work

Purchased a 8 GB ram for my Dell desktop slim line. Specs said to install DDR3L ram.
Fit easy, but when I powered up it computer would beep. Two times and then three times.
What does the beeping mean. Bad Ram?
Dell has specific RAM requirements and you will have to look it up. PNY, CORSAIR, and Kingston are good sites to check. You type in your exact model Dell and it will tell you which module to buy.

if you know you bought the right one then either the RAM isn't sitting right in the clip or it's bad RAM. Also make sure you are not putting too much RAM in (there are limits per motherboard so check your manual. Even if the manual says it takes up to 8GB RAM, you might not be able to put it all one one stick - you would need two 4GB etc).
