This USB works great for me. One thing I really like is the Medal portion that goes into the computer recedes into the drive when not in use and clicks in as well. So, you know it is receded completely. The size is great too...Both the size of the flash drive and the capacity. Works great for every job I have given it so far. I would buy another. Actually, I already have.

This is a great item to have for backup purposes. I am currently using it to backup pieces of one of our DB servers. One things I really like about this flashdrive is when you push the USB portion out it locks in place so it doesn't slide back into its compartment when you try to plug it into your computer. This is a move forward in usability.

Position your GPS receiver for easy viewing in your vehicle with this friction mount.
 

How do I detach the GPS Drive 50LM from the mount's ball? I know there must be a release somewhere but I can't figure it out. Thanks.

You need to pull it gently from the ball. Hold on to everything as you do it to not drop or jerk too hard and let go of the gps.

Be more flexible with this Lenovo 15.6-inch two-in-one notebook. It's a tent, a tablet and a laptop all in one, giving you plenty of options when you want to work, play or show off presentations. A rapid Intel Core i5 processor and 8GB of RAM keeps this Lenovo 15.6-inch two-in-one notebook running quickly.
 

Does this laptop have a button on the keyboard in addition to a touchpad? I don't like touchpads so when I don't have a mouse I like to use this feature.

Sorry to say that it doesn't have a button on the keyboard. For me that is fine but sounds like you are looking for a laptop that does have that. It is a great Laptop.

Interact with Alexa anywhere in your home with the Amazon Echo Dot voice-controlled device. The compact size is a perfect fit in any room, and the built-in speaker lets you set an alarm or stream music. The Amazon Echo Dot voice-controlled device plugs into your home stereo speakers or connects wirelessly through Bluetooth.
 

I got an Echo Dot for Christmas along with a Phillips hue light bulb. Originally the idea was to be able to say Alexa turn on the lights. Now I need to purchase a bridge but I think I want to add maybe surveillance. What brand would be the best to buy?

Since you already have the dot and Alexa setup, just ask her what surveillance systems she supports.
