Good game pad
This game pad is comfy and works well. Do load and use the software that came with it. For some games it is unnecessary but others it will correct some powerfully annoying problems.
great gamepad, wish more games allowed for it
The gamepad is wonderful.It feels good in my hands, the analog sticks feel solid and work well, and the rumble feedback is just enough without being too much.I only wish I was able to use it on more games, but that isn't the gamepad's fault so I didn't take any stars off for it.

great for about 2 months
I bought this controller to use with Doom on my laptop.The configuration is excellent and installation was very easy.However, about 2 months later the left joystick acted up and moves me forward without even touching it.I reinstalled the software, recalibrated several times, and I still creep forward even when I'm not touching the joystick.It's impossible to get my character to stand still.I can adjust to this when I'm playing the actual game, but it's impossible to scroll through menus and such when the joystick is constantly moving "up".Anyway, I'm shopping for another controller later today... ...

Everything is relative....
this might seem to be a long review but i believe it would be of help to you =) and i am going to say lots good things about this headset but please be advised that your milage may vary, and more importantly there are cheaper headsets out there, which is probably a concern for many of you.
Very poor design
Overall this unit has a very cheap and flimsy feel.Voice quality was OK both in and out.However, the charging case does not hold the unit securely, causing the unit to quit charging.Forget the pocket battery charger because it definitely will disconnect causing the unit, once again, to quit charging.The owners manual is printed so small that I had to use a magnifying glass to read it.In summary, just a very poor design.
Comfortable and Sleek
The main reason i went for this one is because it didnt have one of those bulky ear hooks and i wear glasses and it was very uncomfortable with those bulky ear hooks.

Hands down the best mouse you can get for your laptop
This is a very high quality mouse and it's extremely portable.I've had this mouse for over two years without any problems.It's extremely accurate b/c of it's optical light, but it's main strong point is the fact that you can wrap the cord around the mouse for storage.Definitely one of the best investments I made for my Sony VAIO.

Accurate, but a little small (it *is* a Notebook mouse)
The best feature in this mouse is the way the cord winds around the base- pure genius.It works as it should, but try getting a mouse pad- I know they call it an all terrain sensor- But it's not.When used with a pad or on a white smooth surface, it works like a dream.
Best Notebook Mouse
You have to consider that wire mouse is better in all category compare to wireless just name apart. Wireless is freedom but battery takes it back. This mouse is perfect if you have USB port on right side of your laptop (if you are righty or left side for lefty) so short wire isn't a problem. Just love it the way USB wire get wrap around and takes no space in laptop bag. Performance is not mean less compare to my home MX1000 laser mouse. You can't ask for more at low price ($13)..enjoy ... Read more

Avoid Magellan at all costs.....buy Garmin
I foolishly bought a Magellan Explorist 500. Let's just say the best thing about the experience is that Amazon's return service is absolutely first rate. I was even stupid enough to replace my original malfunctioning Magellan with another, before returning that one too on the grounds that it was impossible to work with and didn't sync with my PC.
I regret buying it!
I bought a eTrex Vista C and a Mapsource CD for my recent trip to those national parks and I deeply regret it! Forgive my English, for I am not a native speaker, and my negtive attitude because of my frustration.
A NEWBIE WHO LOVES HER VISTA!
This is my first GPS unit that I bought in June 2006 after discovering the wonderful world of geocaching.Having zero experience with GPS, I spent a couple months researching devices and, most importantly, reading what other users were saying about their hand-held units.The short of it was that after all the info I had gathered, I decided on the Vista CX.It's a middle-of-the-road GPS unit-- I didn't want to go too cheap and end up having to update 6 months later, but I couldn't affort 700 or 800 dollars, either.This device fits perfectly.

The Toshiba A-Series needs to evolve from this underpowered slump
The Toshiba A-Series has so much unused potential; most of which comes from their target market of college students and budget professionals. That being said, there is a lot this laptop has going for it, and a lot that still makes me question Toshiba's motives. The thing that this laptop does right, it florishes in, but the things that aren't up to par, are way under what they should be. I'll break down the pros and cons.

what planet are we on
#1 Very little power. Hooked up to my ipod through the headphone jack with the volume maxed on both you can't make out much from across the room.
Great Product
I have read all the other reviews for this product and find them to be good.The only thing I did not see is the fact that you can split the connection to the system with a simple head phone splitter from radio shack.Don't worry if both audio inputs are on at the same time the thing won't blow up.
Great sound for the price!
I bought these speakers specifically to go with my IPod and to be used in my office.They work great.I also have a Bose SoundDock at home and I honestly have to tell you I think that the Creature II's sound 95% as good as the Bose at a fraction of the cost.I like them so much that I bought a second pair for our vacation home.The only draw back is that some people might not like the design.The Bose unit is cleaner and easier to just set on a shelf.I don't think that you will be disappointed if you buy Creature II's. ...

Satisfied Samsung User
I bought this TV with high expectation and I am still amazed by its quality.
Absolutely Amazing!
If you are in the market to buy a new HDTV....buy this Samsung! I don't even know where to start. But I have had my Samsung 61" for 2 days now and it is by far the BEST tv I have ever seen. The 61" is even bigger in my living room than it looks in the store showroom. Amazon's service was nothing short of Professional when handling my pre-order and getting my Samsung DLP delivered safely and quicker then estimated.
Oh my heavens
Let me first start by saying this tv is an upgrade from my 13inch aiwa, I just bought a new condo and decided to get a good tv. And man is it!

Great little personal fax
I use this only about 5-6 times a month, so no heavy use; but it works well, goes fairly quickly, hasn't jammed or had a line error yet, and the faxed pages are clear and legible. Easy to setup and program, took about 5 minutes to set name, phone #, and other stuff.

Great basic case
I was looking for a basic case for air travel and this one is perfect. It's light with no extra anything. Just room for your laptop, the cords, a couple pens and a file or two. The back pocket holds the case safely on the handle of my other bag. At this price it's a bargain.

Great Sturdy Case
I love my Samsonite notebook case. It fits my Toshiba Satellite M45 just right with plenty of room for extra battery pack, mouse, cables and other items. It looks and feels great and it's easy on the shoulder. Definitely a great buy.

Excellent case

Crops pictures severely!
This unit is easy to use and makes great looking prints however as my wife found out after her first weekend trip with it, it crops off the top and bottom of the picture file.I bought her the package which included the Canon 520 camera and this printer.She printed out pictures of people and found the tops of heads cutoff.The reason is the proportions of the sensor on the camera are more square than4x6 so the printer just cuts off the top and bottom of the digital picture file.No warning in the manual, no way to print the full picture file on a 4x6 paper by leaving space at the ends.Nice work Canon!

Cheap, easy, small, nice photos!
This is a great printer for people who want something inexpensive and easy to use.You can be printing within 15 minutes after opening the box!The printer is small and lightweight and could be easily carried in a camera bag.Photos produced are very nice!

Great little printer
For the price I paid, $25, this is a great little printer.We've had tons of printers...my husband is a professional photographer and these prints satisfy even him (for our family pics).We got this printer mainly because I'm tired of our digital camera and the pics being buried in a photo program.I'd even yearned for a good old 35mm film camera until we got this little printer.It's

Great Keyboard!
I am very satisfied with this keyboard it's nice and it's got gentle keys.
Saitek
Only have had this keyboard for a shot time, It works very well at night, you can easily see the keys and they have a good feel to them. Unless you want to spend alot more money this gets my approval!

Worth it
Wasn't sure if the illumination would truly be visible at night. It is. Very helpful for those late night online rampages. The keyboard is very solid. For those of you that had a generic keyboard that slid all over, this one won't. Took just a little bit of time to get used to the slightly smaller keys than what I had. Think overall it is well worth the $.
