REALOOK T-Mobile HTC One S Screen Protector, Crystal Clear 2-PK

REALOOK T-Mobile HTC One S Screen Protector, Crystal Clear 2-PK
  • Perfect Fit on your T-Mobile HTC One S LCD screen
  • Crystal Clear and Color Brilliant
  • Superior Scratch Protection
  • Bubble Free Easy Installation
  • Complete Installation Accessories and Manual

The screen protector looks pretty once its on the phone. However it is not cut right and does not fit the screen properly. I previously brought a matte finish screen protector and it worked perfectly. I only had this one on two weeks and since it does fit the phone properly, it is peeling off. I figured since it was more expensive than my last one (which came with 3 screen protectors) I would try this one. Unfortunately just because something costs more it does not mean it is always better. I would recommend you save your money and buy a screen protector worth having.

I always look for dry application protectors. Although I'm not a fan when they don't provide 'exact' screen cuts on some phones (i.e. Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus and HTC Sensation 4g)... I've always been a fan of Realook products when they DO have the 'exact' screen cut protectors.

Since there were no reviews at the time I placed my order, I felt it was a little risky. Yet I was fairly confident by the picture provided by Amazon that this would cover the entire front glass of the HTC One S.

For those ordering forward, this is a dry application protector that doesn't cover (and I didn't expect it to) the black portion that angles down on each side of the phone but it does cover the entire flat surface of the phone.

Same quality protector as previously received on some of my other phones / products. I always look to Realook for protection of my new gadgets and as long as they offer 'exact' cuts, I'll continue to purchase their protectors.

Edit 6/20/12:

So, I should have waited to review for after only a few days of using the protector on BOTH my wife and mom's phone, they both developed what I can only describe as a 'nick' with a bubble around it in the middle of the screen. It gives that portion of the screen a 'rainbow' effect and has pretty much rendered the protectors useless.

Edit 7/31/12:

Realook acknowledged a defective batch and resent me 2 new ones right away. It has been approximately 1 month now and I can tell you that the new ones they shipped seem to be much better than

the ones originally received. No issues to report but I should mentioned that upon shipping the new ones, Realook offered to refund my money in the event the new ones weren't better. I feel

the need to always acknowledge a company that stands behind their product and provides OPTIONS to resolve an issue. Way to go Realook.

Once I figured out how to get the dust particles off of my screen during installation with scotch tape, it went on perfectly. The anti glare is great and it doesn't smudge much either. Even with my kids using it, I rarely have to wipe it off. You will love this screen protector if you can get it installed correctly it's worth watching a you-tube video first that shows you how to do it with scotch tape.

JAVOedge Umi Flip Case for the Barnes & Noble Nook Color / Nook Tablet - Latest Generation

JAVOedge Umi Flip Case for the Barnes & Noble Nook Color / Nook Tablet - Latest Generation
  • Magnetic closure offers hassle-free accessibility to your Barnes & Nobles Nook Color / Nook Tablet
  • Kickstand to prop your Kindle device for hands-free viewing
  • Case allows complete access to all ports and screen
  • Interior pockets for storing ID cards, notes, and papers; and a loop for pen/pencil storage
  • Non-leather material is animal friendly!

After seeing the available options at my local B&N, I decided to check out Amazon for a better selection. I spent hours trying to find a case that would be to my liking because I didn't want to have to shell out more $ for another cover. Finally decided on this cover, so glad I did! It fits my Nook Tablet perfectly with all the cutouts in the right spots. My Nook feels very secure in it, but I'm still able to take it out easily when I want to. Originally I thought I was going to want a book cover style, but I'm loving this flip top style more. It closes very nicely and is held shut by magnets. This case is beautifully made, nice stitching and fabric. If you can't tell on your moniter, it is a cream colored canvas with a dark brown pattern. The interior is also dark brown faux-leather with a large pocket and a small ID pocket. The stand in the back is held in place by magnets when not in use. Easy access to all buttons and the screen. I definitely made the right decision, I love it!

Nice case. Easy to use and setup, fit very well. Pleased with the materials and quality, worth the effort to buy. My wife uses this everywhere and the built in stand makes this a very easy kitchen tool too when you have recipes to follow or watching a movie.

Navman GPS 3420 for iPAQ H3600, H3700 & H3800 series pocket PCs

Navman GPS 3420 for iPAQ H3600, H3700 & H3800 series pocket PCs
  • Vocal & visual turn-by-turn directions to get you to your destination
  • Back-on-Track gets you headed in the right direction when off course
  • Intuitive user interface
  • Portable design for in-vehicle and hand-held operation

I Purchased the Navman 3420 for the iPAQ after becoming extremely dissatisfied with the Pharos Ostia GPS product. See my review of that product. Like the Pharos system the routing software wants to choose you route for you and may not always be the best or most practical way to go. If you want to stick to the interstates, you can't if it thinks another way is shorter. This is also a flaw in the Pharos system, but the Pharos is much worse. Also it does not offer the flexibility to get from point A to point C via point B. But that is the worst thing I have to say about this product. Overall the maps are pretty good and fairly detailed. I have found a few quirks like a missing road segment or bridge which causes the system to route you the long way around as well as a few landmarks that are not in the right place, but the re-routing capability is pretty good. The maps are fairly good size, probably averaging 50mb and will require a CF card. A 256mb card will do and hold 4 or 5 maps, but I would recommend a 512.

From the hardware point of view, the Navman 3420's GPS antenna sleeve fits the iPAQ like a glove and has an integrated compact flash slot and is still compact enough to fit in a jacket pocket. Also the suction cup windshield mount fits right into the back of the sleeve allowing the unit to be mounted conveniently to the driver.

The functionality is pretty good and the menus are clear and easy to navigate. Most of the menu items are large enough to be selected with a finger and the zoom and toggle toggles are controlled with the action button. There have only been a few times that the software has gotten `confused' and required a reboot (vs. frequently with the Pharos). You should be up and running right out of the box in the time it takes to load the maps.

I have not had the occasion to use Navman's tech support, which in itself is a plus, so I cannot comment. I'm not going to go so far as to say it's the perfect product but it's design and operation is practical and sensible. The manufacturer has obviously put some thought into the product. I would like to see further development of the mapping software and more flexibility in route planning, like via waypoints.

Summary: Overall I'm pleased with this product. Hardware 5 stars, Software 3 stars.

Buy Navman GPS 3420 for iPAQ H3600, H3700 & H3800 series pocket PCs Now

I was running the NAVMAN GPS on a iPAQ 3955. To make this short, after doing a "Hard" reset and applying the latest Soft-Paq I could get it to work 1 out of 10 times.

Another mistake I made was buying a SanDisk 512mb CF card so I could store the program and maps (You'll get about 1/4 of the US on the card.) You can't install the program to the CF card as it will not function and the program (4.3mb installed) definitely slowed down my machine.

Just so you know I sent it back to Amazon and was refunded.

Belkin CAT 5E 24AWG SOLID PVC CB * 4PAIR; 1000 BLACK ( A7L504-1000-BLK )

Belkin CAT 5E 24AWG SOLID PVC CB * 4PAIR; 1000  BLACK
  • Product Type - CAT5e
  • White conductor has color band for easy pair identification.
  • Category 5e performance rated for any network application
  • Exceeds the performance requirement of Category 5e.
  • Cable Type - CAT5E patch

We paid ~$100 US for this product and are very happy with the purchase.

The quality of the wire really stands out. I know, it seems like wire is wire, but there are subtle details that can make a big difference.

-Color of each of the strands is very clear. Some CAT5/5e/6 cable will have faint colors or include only periodic striping of color+white conductors. This cable has it clearly marked.

-There is a perforated tear off on the box that gives you a window of sort to see how much cable you have left. This is nice, but not necessary since the cable is CLEARLY marked every 2ft with the length on the jacket.

Highly recommended

SMK-Link Wireless Ultra Mini Wireless Compact TV and Presentation Keyboard (VP6360)

SMK-Link Wireless Ultra Mini Wireless Compact  TV and Presentation Keyboard
  • The ultra-mini size with contoured hand grips makes it the ideal choice of remote interface for user environment without desk surface
  • For user environment without desk surface such as home theater setting in a living room.
  • The smartphone-style keyboard eliminates learning curve; thumb typing on the keyboard is as easy as typing on a mobile phone.
  • Designed with the latest wireless technology, this keyboard provides up to 33-foot of wireless transmission range.

So let me start by saying, THIS ITEM IS IMPOSSIBLE TO USE!

I bought this device for $70 dollars on my birthday. Got it home and plugged it in and it connected immediately. It is shaped nice, with decent keyboard lay out, and button feel. Mouse L and R click are located on top. The Scroll is joystick oriented. Great idea. Horrible follow through. The pointer constantly slammed into the top and bottom of the screen, allowing me only left and right movement. In order to move the pointer up and down I had to find a spot on the joystick that resisted turning and grind it into that spot until it clicked. At this point it would allow me to move up and down normally for a random amount of time till it repeated to flee to the top and bottom of the screen.

In short.. not a good idea. Dont buy this.

Ps. I tried to write this review with it and gave up after 20 minutes of fighting with it.

I bought this from frys, and returned it. The joystick just wasn't working well with any member of my family. I have some senior citizens in my household, and they just couldn't work with the joystick.

I ended up buying the logitech dinovo mini from amazon, and I would tell you that it is worth every penny !

Read Best Reviews of SMK-Link Wireless Ultra Mini Wireless Compact TV and Presentation Keyboard (VP6360) Here

Pro: The ergonomics are pretty darn good. It fits in my hands, it feels sturdy, the joy stick and mouse buttons are easy to reach, and it seems to have the keys laid out well enough. On the one hand, charging via USB is nice (like other similar devices do), but I prefer how this one has removable AA batteries instead (having both capabilities would be the best).

Con: The keyboard DOES NOT WORK!! I am going to return it. If I try another, I will update my review if it works.

To confirm another reviewer's comment: the mouse joystick is VERY hard to use on small buttons. The slow speed described in the manual is too hard to stay in because it jumps into high speed at the slightest twitch. If it were easier to stay in slow speed, then the mouse would be fantastic.

It seems like the perfect remote for a HTPC; if only it worked.

Want SMK-Link Wireless Ultra Mini Wireless Compact TV and Presentation Keyboard (VP6360) Discount?

I chose this keyboard because it seemed to be the most ergonomic to hold compared to the other small wireless keyboards Frys had to offer. It is actually pretty ergonomic but the problem is the joystick does not allow fine control of the cursor at all! i have tried setting the mouse speed on my computer to slow and fast and everything in between and I always overshoot when trying to move the cursor no matter what the setting. Its actually quite laughable to see me try to click something on the screen; sometimes it takes a whole minute just to get the cursor where i want it. And its not just me, my husband had the same problem. I will definitely be returning this.

I use it to watch Netflix and YouTube videos on my TV. I've had this for several months and it works fine for me. Has a nice feel to it and is comfortable to use. Don't know why others are having problems. My PC is in the corner of my living room, the RF Sensor is about 8 feet from me and to my left and slightly behind me and I have NEVER had problems with the signal not working.

The joystick is very sensitive and sometimes it can be hard to get the mouse pointer to the correct spot. However, I found that if you go into your mouse settings on your PC and slow down the pointer speed of your mouse that the joystick will be easier to use. Also on some websites where the buttons are small, I adjusted the zoom on my browser so the buttons are larger and easier to hover over.

It sure is nice to sit in a comfortable chair and control your PC!

BoxWave Sony DSC-TX5 ClearTouch Anti-Glare Screen Protector (Single Pack)

BoxWave Sony DSC-TX5 ClearTouch Anti-Glare Screen Protector
  • Award Winning Anti-Glare Sony DSC-TX5 Screen Protector
  • Dust Repelling
  • Bubble-free Application
  • Fingerprint Free
  • Sized to specifically fit the Sony DSC-TX5

The usefulness of this screen protector is twofold. Firstly, yes it is perfect for protecting the LCD panel. It fits nearly perfectly into the recessed space and is easy to install. It is also less susceptible to showing fingerprints which would otherwise make the screen hard to see. Secondly, it does a nice job of cutting down the glare on the screen which is important on the TX5 since it is primarily driven by touchscreen menus.

I hate it but have to have it. Not very user friendly I don't care what you read in the reviews. I carefully read directions but still have bubbles and the screen protector does not sit flush. You only get one try at it and if you don't get it right the first time you will always have problems. This a non-refundable item please read refunds rules or ask.

Ambicom Compact Flash GPS Receiver

Ambicom Compact Flash GPS Receiver
  • Real-time in-vehicle navigation
  • Turn-by-turn voice and visual instructions
  • Ultra compact design
  • Continuous GPS position update
  • Compatible with most Pocket PC's with Compact Flash slot

The product package includes

1. CF GPS receiver.

2. PocketMap Navigator Software 30 days trial version.

3. Antenna booster for in car use (it does not require any power from car)

I am using it with my Dell AXIM 5, PPC Windows 2002 system. Once it is up it tracks on average 6 satellites (maximum display limit is 12 and the maximum i have seen it track is 8) with a CEP of 17' on average. On a overcast day antenna is must otherwise it doesn't track any satellites on my system. On a clear day it works well out doors without the antenna.

What I like about it:

1. It doesn't drain too much power (I don't have to recharge my PPC more often)

2. Its easy to install and use.

3. Reasonably accuracy (25 CEP per specs in most cases its better than that)

4. Navigation software comes with voice navigation (voice itself is digitally synthesized so its little bit hard to understand). The software has nice list of POI's (grocery stores, motels, fitness clubs etc)

What I don't like about it:

1. Map software is 30-day trial version. At the time of writing this review its price is $...

2. Navigator software doesn't give you route optimization options (e.g. you will prefer using highways/interstates or other road ... etc)

Note: For Dell Axim 5 users it takes up the CF slot and you can't use CF slot for map storage.

I got this for Christmas for use with a Cassiopeia E125. The software loaded fine, but the receiver did not appear to get a signal. The Ambicom office was closed during Christmas break, so I put it aside. This week I e-mailed Ambicom. Their response is as follows:

"Unfortunately, the software is not compatible with PDA OS. It's only for Pocket PC 2002 and 2003. Sorry for this incovenient caused."

Amazon's product description and the (sparse) Ambicom documentation did not reveal this detail. Now I'm stuck with something I probably can't use.

Purple Heart Snap on Hard Skin Cover Case for Pantech Impact P7000

Purple Heart Snap on Hard Skin Cover Case for Pantech Impact P7000This phone case was shipped to me quickly, but it was a Christmas gift. When the gift was opened the front part did not stay on. I contacted the seller, and was immediately shipped a new one. I usually don't buy online so I was a little skeptical when the case came and didn't fit. I will definatley buy from this seller again, with no worries.

I like the way this looked and it kept my battery door from falling off. I happened to drop my phone a couple of times and broke the cover but at least my phone was saved. I ended up buying 2 more in the rubberized version.

I had this cover for a good few months and I really loved it, it was really cute and protected the phone well enough. One of the corner clips broke off right away when I first put it on, but that's common for pantech impact covers. It still stayed on really well and it lasted for a about 4-5 months before it completely broke. the front cover broke first and then the back cover a few weeks after that. these covers break just through every day use, but this one lasted a while.

Hard Candy Cases Bubble Case for Kindle Fire, Black (does not fit Kindle Fire HD)

Hard Candy Cases Bubble Case for Kindle Fire, BlackI paid $39.95 for this item and expected it to be decently made for the price. Straight out of the packaging, there were scrathes on the back where the "bubbles" are. The plastic is very flimsy and seems cheaply made. Also, the Hard Candy cases logo just pops right out of the case. I haven't had it 10 minutes and I'm sending it back. Pay the extra money for an otterbox. My son has one on his ipad and it is great. He can drop the ipad, spill things on it and its totally protected. That's what I'll be buying for my kindle instead.

Case was nice for money. Gave it as a gift for a 5 year old. Nice & sturdy so when he drops it,it will be protected. Would definitely buy again!

  • Compatible with handheld devices including the iPhone 3, 4, and 4S, iPod touch and other Bluetooth enabled smartphones.
  • Accommodates in portrait or landscape modes.
  • Able to detach from keyboard for portability and storability.
  • Able to snap together when not in use.
  • Serves as a stand independent of a keyboard.

Got my Wingstand today and I already love it. It was just a tad tight getting it on the keyboard the first time but I've got this sliding action that works perfect. Supports my iPad perfectly for typing and works as great stand. My only one issue is that the legs should have rubberized grips so it does not slide around when you tap on the screen, but I also have a very slick desk. I'll pick up some grips at Target or something and everything will be perfect. Can't wait to use it in class. Great price for an simple but very useful product.

I love the simplicity of the WINGStand, and it fits the Apple wireless bluetooth keyboard perfectly (which I already owned). The two clips attach to each other, and take no space. The WINGStand makes an elegant, and portable, iPad desktop solution. Turned a lot of heads when people saw me working without a lot of wires and bulky equipment. I will be buying more for gifts, now that I have used it for myself. I did have to revert to the Apple magnetic smartcover, as the aftermarket cases were too bulky to work along with the WINGStand.

Motorola Vehicle Dock for DROID X & Droid X2 with Rapid Car Charger - Motorola Retail Packaging

Motorola Vehicle Dock for DROID X & Droid X2 with Rapid Car Charger - Motorola Retail PackagingIf you are using a non-Motorola protective case, see note below. Unlike some reviews I've read, I found this mount to be well designed and sturdy enough even for rough roads. If the base is mounted on a near vertical surface, then the holder will be, a minimum of 6 inches away from the mounting surface due to the way the articulating joints are designed. There's more latitude when mounting on a near horizontal surface like the top of the dash. There's an included stick-on smooth disk so the suction cup will work on textured surfaces. If you are not using a protective case, no problems. If you are using a Motorola case, then you will need to remove the spacer insert that comes pre-installed lift two clips and it comes off.

If using an aftermarket protective case, you may need to make some adjustments with a Dremel tool in order to get the micro USB connector in the mount to go into the phone far enough to charge the phone. I'm using this case: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003VSICYY/ref=oss_product (excellent, btw) and had to remove material from the holder along it's bottom edge and along the inside surface of the bottom corners. Just take your time with the Dremel and keep checking to see if the phone charging indicator comes on without having to press the phone down hard into the mount holder. When you've removed enough material to allow the phone to sit down in the holder, it will do so easily and the charge indicator will come on.

This dock works great. Made specifically for the Verizon Droid X so it is expected that it would work great for that phone. One note. The dock I received came with the car charger plug in the kit. It is not listed or shown on this page but that is the package I received. Unfortunately for me I also purchased a car charger cable because everywhere I had seen online sold them separately. It even shows it as a combo purchase here on Amazon. Don't know if that was by mistake or not but don't buy both because you may end up with double.

Shipped by Amazon very quickly as usual, but the unit itself is just so so. The fit of the phone in the unit is extremely good as is the range of adjustments, however I find the frame to be excessively large blocking more than the average amount of visibility for a Nav system through the windshield. Most annoying though, is that the support arm simply isnt stiff enough and at lowish vehicle speeds on anything other than the smoothest roads, the unit vibrates / resonates.

Read Best Reviews of Motorola Vehicle Dock for DROID X & Droid X2 with Rapid Car Charger - Motorola Retail Packaging Here

I love everything about this car mount. You can mount it on your dashboard or on your windshield. It adjusts in 100 different directions and then you can lock it into place so it doesn't move. The other really nice feature is that the charger plugs into the mount, not your phone, so all you have to do is pop your phone in and out. Most mounts for GPS units require you to plug the charger into the unit, and then mount the unit separately, so this way makes a lot more sense.

Want Motorola Vehicle Dock for DROID X & Droid X2 with Rapid Car Charger - Motorola Retail Packaging Discount?

I don't think I had the dock for more than a week before I realized I needed a new charger. I plugged the charger into the back of the dock the first time I used it in my car, and my phone did not immediately begin charging. I had to push the connector head extremely hard into the back of the dock in order to create a strong enough electrical connection for my phone to begin charging. I tried to charge my phone afterwards just by plugging the charger directly into the phone, and depending on how I held my phone, there was an unstable connection that showed only intermittent charging. I tried to push the connector head harder into the socket, and deformed the terminal so now it doesn't charge at all. It looks to me like the casing around the connector is too thick so that it does not allow for a good connection with the phone or back of the dock.

The dock itself is great. It is the perfect fit for the Droid X and you are able to put it practically anywhere on your dashboard or windshield.

Works for my Averatec laptop great. It's a strange design with only about a 2 inch cord before the main body of the adapter but the rest of the cord is crazy long and it works fine for me. It also works on a random wireless speaker I lost a power supply for as well.

As the title of my post says this is my first bar-code scanner purchase. I've wanted one for awhile but couldn't justify the purchase as I would only be using it for cataloging and keeping track of my movie, music and book collections. I use 2 different programs for my movie collection and 1 program for my music and book collections.

As a movie fan-atic I buy a lot of movies (mostly blu-ray and some dvds that I don't think will be released any time soon if ever on blu-ray). It seems all the applications for collectors use the UPC code to add titles to your collections. My eyes aren't as good as they used to be and often I get the numbers out of order or just wrong and it becomes a long process just to list the titles by UPC manually.

So, I did a lot of researching of bar-code scanners. There are a lot of them at prices that are very inexpensive to expensive and a whole lot in between.

I usually rely on what others have experienced with a particular product especially when I don't know all that much about it myself and more often than not it pays off.

This bar-code scanner installed without a problem on my Dell laptop. Windows 7 found the driver so I didn't need a setup disc. And even better the scanner worked perfectly right out of the box. And it is a huge help when entering a lot of titles in a short period of time. For my movie collection I use both DVD Profiler and Movie Collectorz programs. I prefer the Collectorz.com application but I like the ability to have my collection available on a web page so I also use DVD Profiler.

As I've said, this scanner makes adding movies, music, etc a breeze and I can add them fast so I'm not spending hours as I did before.

This bar-code scanner works perfectly every time. Totally accurate and it reads every bar-code even a few that had some sticky stuff over the code on certain upc codes and some that had a small hole in the upc code.

I've very happy with this purchase and I think anyone looking for a good scanner that is a mid-range priced one should consider this one.

BoxWave Skinny Capacitive Stylus for iPad - Apple iPad Touch Screen Stylus w/ Longer Barrel and Fine

BoxWave Skinny Capacitive Stylus for iPad - Apple iPad Touch Screen Stylus w/ Longer Barrel and Fine Tip Point
  • Works on all capacitive touch screens
  • Helps avoid fingerprints and smudges
  • Sturdy metal construction
  • Durable and responsive rubber tip
  • Pocket clip for easy transportation and storage

I previously purchased the BoxWave Capacitive Stylus and am happy with it. I purchased the BoxWave Skinny Capacitive Stylus given it's additional length. The additional length is a positive, however the clip on this Stylus is different than the original BoxWave Capacitive Stylus in that the clip doesn't attach at the top of stylus, rather, on the side. When the Skinny Stylus is attached to an iPad case, the top of the stylus protrudes a half-inch or more above the top of the case, whereas the original BoxWave Stylus is flush with the top of the case. In addition, when the Stylus is attached to anything of thickness (ie, an iPad case), the clip obviously looks stressed against the Stylus to the point where it's just a matter of time before it pulls away.

Recommend the original BoxWave Capacitive Stylus not so much for the BoxWave Skinny Capacitive Stylus.

"i really like it! it's a nice color, it's easy to snap on and off. the material is also nice since it's not super hard or flimsy. plus it's glossy, so it's easy to clean."

Buy New OEM Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 2 Purple High Gloss Silicone Case Now

I love this case because its really durable, but it doesn't fit the phone! I bought this in the Verizon store, and the associate and I tried several cases with no success. The problem is that the case fits too tightly over the buttons, so it gets stuck on them, causing it to push the volume up and down nonstop, and locks/shuts off the phone. VERY frustrating. I decided to stick with it and try to just stretch it out, but another option can be to cut out the panels. The volume now works, but the lock button still gets stuck often and I have to lift the case to lock/restart my phone. Decide for yourself if its worth the aggravation......

Palm M500

Palm M500
  • Palmone M500 Pda
  • Internal battery
  • Touchscreen

PalmOne m500 Handheld

The unit was brand new with all accessories included. What the posting did not mention however, was that the "native" language of the unit was Japanese. Starting from scratch, it was not difficult to convert almost all language into English. Unfortunately, the resident software, which cannot be erased, still had two apps in Japanese. If you activate either, the language of the entire PDA becomes Japanese. Unless you know Japanese or have a friend who does, and you can get back to English, you're S.O.L. Add one and a half stars if someone you know has a fix.
