Powermat 2X Wireless Charging Mat

Powermat 2X Wireless Charging Mat
  • Includes a Brand New PowerMat Portable Mat (PMM-PT100) in Retail Packaging
  • Connect your device(s) to a Powermat Receiver or PowerMat Door
  • A magnetic attraction between every Receiver and each access point on every Mat assures that alignment is precise
  • A unique sound tells you that a solid connection has been made and your device is charging.
  • Includes a blue CCMaccessories Neck Strap / Lanyard

I received this for a Mothers Day present from my DH. I it took me a long while to figure it out. After reading the brief directions and still being confused (how is it wireless?) I went to the website. What I figured out is this: You plug the mat itself in to an electrical outlet. You then have to plug each device into that mat either thourgh the one USB port on the side or with the one univeral receiver provided. To charge more devices at the same time you will need to purchase (at approx $30 each) additional universal receivers that will plug into your additinal devices. If you want true wireless charging you will need to purchase a device specific receiver for each device at approx. $40 each. And they don't offer wireless chargers for that many devices at this time. They state that more are coming in '10 and that they hope that in the future the chip will just be built into phones, MP3, etc. At this time I feel it is a "what is the point of this?" kinda of device. Way too expensive to do what you can do for free with the provided cords on your phone, etc.

So, I will be returning my thoughtful present and maybe in 5 or 10 years I will get another one, when they actual do what they say they will do for a reasonable price.

The idea of a simple powermat to charge all your devices sounds great until you realize that every device you want to charge needs it's own receiver.....at $40 each it gets very expensive and it's not worth the money. Two stars for a great idea...but I sent mine back.

The powermat was not as handy as we had expected it to be -still had to plug in each individual device AND quit working entirely within the first week.

Taylor 1479 Commercial Wireless Remote Digital Food Thermometer

Taylor 1479 Commercial Wireless Remote Digital Food ThermometerI have read the "help" offered by the Taylor engineer. I think he is just explaining away the fact that Taylor did not design this appropriately for the environment it is going to be regularly used in. I am an engineer by training and have used these types of temp measurement devices before many times they are popular because they are accurate and reliable. If packaging is not designed correctly, anything will fail. (perfect example computer manufacturers design keyboards to have a drink spilled on them; is this logical: no; does it keep the keyboard safe in its likely use environment: yes)

My problem is that the crimp that holds the wires into the probe did not hold well so the plastic protective sheath pulled out and, no, I did not pull the probe out by the cord. Now the little wires that actually combine to determine the temperature rub on the probe opening and cause an error (especially if even slightly moist). Bottom line: the cord should have been sheathed in braided metal like every other probe out there.

There may be good news: as I was writing the review sitting on hold with customer servcie, someone finally answered my call. They will send another probe out for free...in a month and a half because they are backorded. I'm sure the Taylor engineer will chalk the demand for replacement probes up to user error. Good luck to those who purchased.

Just finished reading my copy of Cooks' Illustrated and I see they've listed this wireless as their new #1 thermometer, knocking off the previous title holder. I love this piece and am glad to see the experts think so too. It's compact and works well. I love the backlight and that the remote beeps, vibrates and flashes a light for the various pre-alerts I've set for cooking. I use it more indoors than for BBQ's, but it's clearly a great piece and by a company who knows thermometers. I have other Taylor items too.

Buy Taylor 1479 Commercial Wireless Remote Digital Food Thermometer Now

I purchased this item at another retailer (wish I would have gotten it here!) and have used it twice already. The price was great! I had a corded one before that didn't have the remote, but wanted to try this. I used it on the grill to cook some chicken and had no problem with the cord at all. It was great because I didn't have to constantly run to the grill to check the temp -I did once but then realized I didn't have to and waited for the beeps (and it was cold out). The chicken breast turned out well. I used it in the oven this weekend for a roast, and again, it was great. The meat was done really well and cooked just the way we like it. I like that I don't have to spend all my time in the kitchen checking and checking the temperature. I truly didn't worry about the roast until I got the beeps. Can't wait to try it again for the holidays

I purchased this Taylor wireless remote digital food thermometer for my husband. The first time we used it the sheath around the wiring appeared to be defective, so I returned it. We thought it was just defective because the instruction do state it can be used on the grill. Amazon sent another one right out. We did not get around to using the second one until this past weekend...well the same thing happened to it. I would not recommend it for the grill. I will again return it, but because the return period has expired looks like we have just lost our $$.

Please do not purchase this! Does not fit my Nook! Smaller screen cover for touchscreen was too big, covers "n" home button, making it less sensitive to touch. Also seller delivered late and the screens are NOT antiGlare-very shiny...

Read Best Reviews of GTMax 3 LCD Screen Protector for Barnes&Noble Nook Here

Waste of money and time. The screen protector is slightly large, so it never fits smoothly into the frame, resulting in a large bubble on the side. Impossible to press down completely. It is too glossy and reflective, so makes the Nook worse to view in sunlight, bright light. The bubbles are all over the screen, making reflections even worse. I took it off immediately. I'll just try and be careful with my Nook, rather than use this terribly designed screen protector. I believe you will be disappointed with this product.

It has an automatic shut off after a few minutes which should save the battery when it is not being powered by light.

The only drawback is the display is not as bright as I would like it.....buy hey!!!

BoxWave Slimline Capacitive Stylus for Apple iPad 3, new iPad (3rd Generation), iPad 2, iPad 1, and

BoxWave Slimline Capacitive Stylus for Apple iPad 3, new iPad, iPad 2, iPad 1, and Amazon Kindle FireI bought this stylus because I want one that is slimmer than the one I already have (Targus).

The size and weight is great but it doesn't seem to have very good "conductivity" with the iPad screen, and requires to be pressed down a bit harder than i'm comfortable doing. The Targus stylus I bought a few months ago doesn't require any pressure at all, my only complaint was the width and weight.

Anyway, I haven't been impressed with this stylus. It'll cost nearly as much to ship it back to Amazon as I paid for the item so I guess I'll keep it as a spare.

Has a chord and jack that fits into the headphone jack so you don't lose it while making sure your headphone jack stays clean. Works perfectly, looks a little cheap, but if your case has no spot to hold a stylus, this does the trick. As far as it looking a little on the cheap side, I'm being picky, but it works perfectly. Would buy it again.

I FEEL COMPLETLY CHEATED WITH THE PRODUCT. why because the product sent to me was already broken, with its tip to one side more than 45 degree. which made it useless on side other than bented .very disappointed.

Want BoxWave Slimline Capacitive Stylus for Apple iPad 3, new iPad (3rd Generation), iPad 2, iPad 1, and Discount?

I have to admit I enjoy the finer things in life and being that I have just about everything buying for me at Christmas or birthdays is impossible!

So yes, I have a very expensive designer sleeve for my ipad3 as well as closed cover designer case for my ipad mini. However, seeing finger prints on the screens drives my bonkers....

This stylus fit nicely beside the ipad3 in the sleeve using the earphone plug as well as beside the ipad mini in the closed cover case.

The only reason I did not give the stylus a five stars is because I have to customize the cord from the earphone plug to the pen so that I have a clasp to release the stylus as unplugging it and plugging it back into the earphone will mean that very quickly the plastic earphone connector will wear down and not secure properly.

So Boxwave, please include the clasp connector as you do with your fatter and larger family of stylus's and I would be more than happy to pay a couple more bucks for this....

Then five stars all day long!!!!

Piel Frama Cinema Leather Standing Case for the iPad 2 & 3 (Black)

Piel Frama Cinema Leather Standing Case for the iPad 2 & 3
  • Cinema cover transforms into standing case for video watching on your Apple iPad 2 or 3
  • Handcrafted Spanish leather case combines luxurious styling with durable construction
  • Snug leather frame with soft lining fits the Apple iPad 2 & 3 like a glove
  • Convenient cutouts provide easy access to all iPad features and ports
  • Front cover includes document compartment

Overall quality on this is great, as usual and as expected from Piel Frama. This is my second Piel Frama case.

Now, as to functionality: Two weak points.

First, although the iPad fits great, the binder has a loose quality, this in my opinion should be sturdier, and it has an effect on the second point.

Second, the whole point of this, 'cinema' style is designed so that the case will allow the iPad to be positioned so you can view the screen while on a table, on the plane's traytop, etc. The weakness with this model is that the iPad has no way of staying in place, so it slips. A lot. Other products like Brookstone have grooves in the base flap so you can place the screen in an assortment of positions. (The brookstone model however, lacks the Piel Frama's tight encasing quality of the iPad). I wish Piel Frama did a little more homework on this project: Suggestions to PF: Keep the great, iPad encasing qualities, firm up the binding and create an assortment of grooves in the base lining to prevent slipping. How hard could this be for an otherwise, top-notch case provider? Love the leather and consistent quality, but the design of this falls short, especially for the premium-case price range. There are plenty of medium-quality cases with grooved base flaps for a third of the price. Unless Piel Frama made these adjustments (which I would gladly trade up to), I would recommend someone save themselves the $150ish price tag and just get a functional (albeit plain) case.

ASUS Sleeve Case for Eee Pad TF201 Transformer - Pink

  • Doubles as a stand

Its a nice sleeve and looks good. The one thing i don't quite like about it is that is has no back to it. So basically you clip the sleep on to the back much like the ipad2 smart cover. So it does not protect the back of the tablet

I bought this sleeve even after reading all the the reviews. I have a Skinomi protector which covers the entire device so I wasn't worried about scratches. I make sure I take the cover off by gripping it closest to the spring release mechanism. I don't think it is worth $40. I think bought it with coupons. The magnets are a little weak but when I purchased it but I didn't expect strong ones as Asus recommends keeping the Prime away from magnets.

****I would like to edit my comment on it************

Broke after two months worth of use. Thank God I did not pay full price on it. Concept is great, product attachment is horrible. I was no rough on the cover as I had kept my Prime in pristine condition and was very careful with using it.

Body Glove Snap-On Case for HTC Incredible in Retail Packaging

Body Glove Snap-On Case for HTC Incredible in Retail Packaging
  • Body Glove Snap-On Case (9140601) for HTC Incredible in Retail Packaging.
  • Durable hard shell wrapped in a textured glove material. Ultimate custom fit for maximum protection.
  • Removable knob for a low profile. Adjustable kickstand built into clip.
  • Kickstand allows for multiple viewing angles.
  • Includes a blue CCMaccessories Neck Strap / Lanyard.

I bought this case immediately after purchasing my incredible. Its a great price and looks good. I also love the grippiness of the case, but its still hard enough to protect from fall damage (caveat: see below).

The major flaw with the case is that the snap-on attachment is not that secure. I've dropped the phone a few times and once or twice the case has partially unattached. The phone hasn't been damaged from this but it has me worried enough that I'm buying a new case. I think this might be caused by my removing the case to clean off the phone sometimes (it seemed to get looser after I removed and attached it a few times) so if you plan to just install it and leave it, you might be okay.

Another flaw with the case is that the belt hook has the device facing outward. This isn't a big deal for me since I don't use the hook, but if you were planning on using it, I advise against this case.

Buy Body Glove Snap-On Case for HTC Incredible in Retail Packaging Now

i have had the body glove snap on cases on the last three phones i have had. i very much like the soft textured protection that this case offers, without quite the bulk of the otterbox (or the price tag). this case protected my phone through several substantial falls and being tossed around in a gym/baseball equipment bag. after one drop from about 5 feet onto a concrete floor one of the little tabs that snaps the case on broke, but my phone remained undamaged (which is kind of the point on a case). i replaced that case with another one of these cases.

the only complaint i have about this case is that the front half of this case has pretty thick sides and it prevents you from being able to reach the very edges of the screen (like to drag an app from one screen to the next) but this would be the case with most cases that offer this much protection as phones try to use as much of the front with the screen as possible.

This case worked great for me for a few months. But after a while the case would pop off when I dropped it. My brother bought the exact same case and it broke after 2 weeks. If you don't abuse your phone, this case will suite you just fine.

Want Body Glove Snap-On Case for HTC Incredible in Retail Packaging Discount?

I love this case, but can no longer recommend it.

The tabs on this case are ridiculously fragile. I've now been through 4 of these cases and cannot justify purchasing another...

All of the cases of failed in the same way. The tabs that hold the cases together eventually break either from falls or taking the case off and on to get to your phone (eg, replacing the battery, getting to the SD card, etc.)

When the case DOES work, it gives the phone a sturdier feel. Plus, the detachable clip doubles as a phone stand.

... but those two things don't mean a thing if the case itself keeps coming apart.

I have had this cover for a week. If your anything like me.. you drop your phone a lot..This cover snaps on tight and protects the phone from everything. I would recommend this to anyone that drops their phone.

Black Wireless 2.4GHz Optical Hand-Held USB Trackball Mouse For Laptop PC

Black Wireless 2.4GHz Optical Hand-Held USB Trackball Mouse For Laptop PCWorks pretty well, the extra mouse function is a bit unnecessary, but neat. The trackball tends to skip a bit depending on how you hold it, and it doesn't work well left-handed, since the mouse bottom part is on that side. I would have preferred if it had someway to check the battery, and maybe a storage slot for the usb wireless receiver, but for 20 odd bucks, i can deal with a few minor design oversights. Otherwise, it's comfortable and easy to use. The drivers installed automatically on both the computers I've used it with so far, no problems there. It does have an obnoxious green flashing LED when it's charging though. Overall I would recommend it, though I've only had it a few days, so we'll see how the durability goes.

Been looking for something like this for years. Came close to pulling the trigger on several similar products over that time but never did because they just didn't look good enough. Mouse arrived within a few days of placing the order and worked immediately upon plugging it in. Wireless USB hub is very small (wish there was a storage place for it on the mouse: hope I don't lose it) and unobtrusive. Mouse itself is just about the right size and shape. (for right handers)

The only things that I would improve upon if I had my way: bluetooth, scroll wheel between the left and right mouse buttons, and a tighter track ball. The scroll wheel behind the ball forces me to slightly adjust my grip to use it (not too bad, just nitpicking), and (due to the nature of track balls) the ball becomes slightly unseated when tipped beyond 45 degrees (but still usable). Once again not really a big deal.

All in all a very good product... especially for the money.

Buy Black Wireless 2.4GHz Optical Hand-Held USB Trackball Mouse For Laptop PC Now

I bought this because I spend most of my day working on a computer and I started having problems with my wrist due to mousing. No matter what kind of mouse or trackball I used (and I tried SEVERAL), I still had some amount of pain in my wrist. Well wrist pain is inevitable if you sit at a computer all day--it's unhealthy and unnatural (as Peter Gibbons said, "Human beings were not meant to sit in little boxes all day"), but it pays the bills. Dammit.

So I thought I could reduce the problem if I found something that didn't need to rest on a flat surface. I wasn't even sure if something like this existed until I started looking for it on Amazon. (What can't you find on Amazon?)

Anyway, it works great overall--I've been using it for a few days. It's not great for high-precision work, so I use it in conjunction with a stationary trackball. When using the scroll wheel, the screen will jump unexpectedly from time to time, but it's not a huge problem.

The wireless USB antenna is tiny, which I like because there's less chance for me to break it.

I wish they made a left handed version, but otherwise I have no complaints.

Read Best Reviews of Black Wireless 2.4GHz Optical Hand-Held USB Trackball Mouse For Laptop PC Here

For the price, this is a great little mouse. Had my first one about 7 months, until my 6 year old decided to throw it (not as bad as it sounds. Logitech mice would likely have stood up to it). I bought this mouse for use with Rosetta Stone language software while sitting on the sofa. I soon realized I could use this while walking on my treadmill. Worked beautifully. Rosetta Stone is almost entirely point and click and accuracy is not a major issue. As other reviewers have said, the mouse does have some minor accuracy issues with the trackball and the scroll wheel. The trackball has a fair amount of play and the mouse feels cheaply made. If Logitech were to come out with a similar mouse, I would switch. As long as they keep the price reasonable. If the design had any reputable competition, I probably would drop my rating. I gave it four stars, because it does what is advertised, is fairly comfortable, and the price is accepatble.

Great idea, but sometimes the handles didn't respond which upset my competetive sons. Just be sure you're close to receiver and have no obstacles between the handles and receiver

Gameshow style answer buttons work well. Good family fun with games made by Highlights. Needs more apps though. Perhaps trivial pursuit style game.

I purchased these to protect my iPad. They serve their purpose. I'm no expert in putting these things on, but I can at least get all of the large bubbles out and there are only a few small bubbles near the edges.

Product was received in a timely manner and is of quality material, but in applying it to the screen air bubbles get trapped underneath and even after 45 minutes of tediously squeegeeing, some air bubbles remain. Took the protectors off and just use the silk cloth that comes with for cleaning.

Xeon W3550, 4C, 3.06GHZ

Xeon W3550, 4C, 3.06GHZ
  • INTEL CORP. BX80601W3550 XEON W3550, 4C, 3.06GHZ

Well I cant say much that hasn't already been said....lol..... I can say that this is one fast CPU and for the cost It should be. The overclocking ability is very good and has very easy to use BIOS setting to accomplish overclocking for the new and technical advanced people. I takes on anything I throw at it without even a strain. I am usually a AMD man 100% when building a gaming unit. This was the first Intel I have purchased for a gaming build since 1993 & I don't regret the purchase. I remember when I was looking at this CPU and reading everyone else's comments about how Sandy was coming out soon and to hold out. I don't regret and I don't think Sandy lived up to i the hype in what I have seen from it. I have experienced both and I will stick with the I7

Other Thoughts: Great Processor for the money.
