This game is not what we expected. Is an odd way of playing a game. I guess that's why there are different games for different people. None of us liked it. Felt it was a waste of money for us.

Informational and A Lot of Fun to Talk To!

Posted by: Spikel

Verified Purchase:Yes
You can ask Alexa just about anything and set her up to check items for you. My kids also enjoy talking to Alexa. My 5th grader uses the timer to practice her trumpet. She'll say Alexa set a timer for 20 minutes and then in 20 minutes the alarm goes off. You can ask her the temperature, time, and on and on. We also have her setup to turn some of our light switches on/off. Alexa turn off the Christmas Tree and she does. We really like this device. Pretty Cool but make sure you are responsible to not setup things your kids could get into and do or purchase. I have heard tales about that. We use Alexa for informational purposes. Not to purchase.

The Kids Love this Game

Verified Purchase:Yes
They asked for it for Christmas. Things came in a little late but it was my fault. I thought it would be at the store and had to order it. They opened it and started playing and just love all the story openings. Batman ends up at the Wizard of Oz. All the different Legos end up at different (not their) environments. It adds comedy and fun. My wife and I are enjoying it too. Plus its expandable. You can buy more levels and expansions of levels. You can also buy more Lego characters. Great Game!!

You can type in dim lighting using the backlit keyboard or use the convertible flip hinge to switch to tablet mode and swipe through features using the 15.6" touch screen. With a spacious 1TB hard drive, there's plenty of space to store pictures and music.
 

Will charging the battery before it's fully discharged affect the life of the battery?

Does it have the kind of battery with the "memory effect"?
I always fully charge the battery and discharge the battery down under 10% twice before using the charging procedure through normal use. I have seen it is good to do this and generally the battery lasts longer. It is also good to discharge the battery once a month. Although many will tell you that batteries of today don't need that, I find it does help. And, if anything, it doesn't hurt. What is cool about this laptop is after it fully charges, the charger quits charging the battery. With that said and is there for you to consider, I don't feel your question affects the battery as long as you do the initial process and discharge your battery down as close to 5%-10% once a month. That allows the battery to know what LOW is. I have been told it is not good to completely discharge a battery. Just so you know, these are all opinions. No one really knows what is best other than through experience.

With 10 million points of interest, you'll be able to travel to a variety of locales across the U.S. and Canada.
 

How can I transfer addresses from an old Garmin to the nuvi 2597LMT?

You will want to load Garmin Express on your computer. Then make a backup of your GPS favorites to your computer. Click on your GPS icon and then click on Tools to backup your Favorites. After backing up your favorites you can disconnect the old GPS and connect your new GPS. After or before loading all the updates and such to your new GPS, you will want to Click on the icon for your new GPS, Click Tools (which is the same place you backed up your old GPS) and go down a little more and there you can select the Old GPS and load that backup of your Favorites to your new GPS.

Does this router have a firewall and what are the advantages and disadvantages of using a router with a firewall?

Need a new wireless router but after researching different ones, I have so many questions, including the one above!

Also, is WPA or WPA 2 a better type of encryption?
Yes it does have a firewall. Very easy to access and utilize. You are able to block anything you wish specifically and there are categories you can block too. This is a great router. You are also able to send logs to an email to view what end users are accessing.

Is there repeater functionality on this router?

We are in a large office. Can I buy two of these and connect them to extend the network? We want to keep it all the same network.
Yes! You can setup these Routers as Repeaters. When logging on as an Administrator you can go to the Repeater section toward the bottom of the listed options. You check a checkbox and submit. The router turns into an accepting repeater. The downside of setting it up as a repeater is you cannot use the web filtering app that is on the device.
