WOW!
This is a phenomenal camera!I fell in love with the huge 3-inch viewfinder, and the 12x zoom is just great.This camera's pictures can be be cropped and end enlarged.The pictures are incredibly clear.In addition, the camera is compact, considering its features.The price is not too high, either.I highly recommend this camera. The only downsides are the large file sizes (you need to buy large capacity media), and that it uses proprietary Sony Memory Stick memory.

PURPLE FRINGE
Nice camera but WAY too much purple fringe.Camera feels and looks kind of cheap compared to Canon or Panasonic.None of the super-zooms are perfect. The Sony, Canon and Panasonic super-zooms are all nice cameras, pick the one the feels right in your hands & you'll no doubt be happy with it.

Pleased with quality vs. price.
I've had the Sony DSC-H5 for about three months and all-in-all am very satisfied. This is my first digital camera, being an old SLR holdout. As noted in some of the other reviews, there are some minor issues - the location of the zoom button being my biggest complaint. It's too easy to hit that by mistake when composing a shot.

Get the most out of your flight simulator with the Pro Pedals USB Flight Simulator Pedals. These responsive pedals deliver a smooth, highly realistic flying experience where you control the plane's rudder with your feet rather than a joystick. These pedals let you feel accurate forward and backward sliding motion for rudder input to control yaw axis. Pressure-sensitive heel-toe motion gives you terrific feedback for differential toe braking control. Gain better, more realistic control of your virtual aircraft and take simulated flight to the next level. Read more

Features

• Sliding motion of forward/backward gives rudder input for the "yaw" axis
• Heel-toe motion gives differential toe braking control
• Three axis of control, plane or car simulator control
• Seven foot cable
• USB interface

Works perfect
I hooked up the pedals and they worked great.Using MS FS2004. Can't wait for FSX.

I don't know how anyone flies without them
I don't know how anyone flies without these. I wondered why my simulator approaches were so pathetic, turns out that a little rudder is good for those tiny course corrections you need to put the plane down right where you want it. These feel pretty solid. The only drawbacks I've found are that they're a little pricey, and some sims don't support them well.

Well, after owning Gameport versions of the F16 Fighterstick, Pro Rudder Pedals and Pro Throttle for 10 years I have decided to retire them and purchase the newer USB versions.Fedex delivered my lot in 4 days.WHEW!

The Fujifilm FinePix F30 6.3MP Digital Camera is a revolution in point-and-shoot digital cameras for consumers. With full-resolution ISO equivalency speeds as high as 3200 -- a setting previously reserved for advanced consumer and professional digital camera models -- the F30 takes crystal clear photographs where other cameras would deliver blurry images. Higher light sensitivities allow this camera to shoot with faster shutter speeds, which lessens the likelihood of blurry pictures caused by ever-active children, fidgety pets, dim ambient light, or an unsteady camera hand.Read more

Features

• Digital camera features full resolution ISO equivalency speeds as high as 3200 for great low-light and motion shots
• Features a 3.0x optical zoom Fujinon lens; combined with 6.2x digital zoom, camera offers 18.6x total zoom
• Large, 2.5-inch LCD monitor features Auto Brightness and an anti-glare, low-reflection CV (Clear View) film
• Picture Stabilization mode and Real Photo Technology combine to produce less noisy and less grainy photos in dim light
• i-Flash system accurately detects subtle light differences within a scene, and then lights the subject accordingly with a wider range of flash intensities

Great small camera, fantastic video,better than PowerShot SD600 and SD700
I love my FinePix F30.I know what a great camera it is because I have compared its performance against two of its most highly rated competitors.
A few other points
Other reviews are quite extensive on the F30.I just wanted to add that I discoverred that, while Fuji says you must use slow type M XD cards, the camera works fine and fast with the older plain XD cards.512MB says I have about 180 pictures to go, which is plenty for me.
Superb
I've owned 5 digital cameras; I'm an amateur who goes back to the SLR days.I have liked my prior two Fuji's but have had reliability problems, battery life problems, exposure problems.Minor.I decided to step up.I was looking at any and everythingi from Panasonic/Canon/Olympus to Leica.I could afford anything and had 2 cameras to trade in.

After thorough research, I bought three of them
I meticulously researched available printers. I wanted a laser for quality printing without worrying about dried out ink cartridges when I didn't print anything for a long time. I wanted duplex printing to save paper. I didn't even know this printer could print multiple pages on a sheet until after I set it up. That was a welcome bonus! I wanted something to produce quality graphics and photo print-outs, not too expensive to purchase or to maintain, with low cost per page / toner use. I got it all.
Excellent Duplex Printer
I was originally going to purchase an HP LaserJet, but due to it being out of stock, I opted to order this printer. I have to say I am glad I did. My first impression was that it reminded me of my old Samsung QwikLaser, but the print quality and machine quality exceeds what I had expected for $250. My main reason for purchasing this machine was to print duplex technical reports, which my HP Color LaserJet can't do (can't print duplex), and toner for that machine is exponentially more. I have read that the print cost for this machine is about $0.02 a page, which is good in comparison to others costs, and I do not see any "chip" in this toner cartridge, as most new lasers have.
Network issues for this printer solved.
I had the same network issues some other posters mentioned. I decided to solve it myself. The exact symptoms were that after a long period of inactivity, print jobs over the network could not wake up the printer. I ran a network sniffer to determine what was going on. I noticed that my laptop was requesting a name resolution for the printer (name to I.P. address mapping)using NetBIOS broadcasts. Since my network does not have a NetBIOS domain controller or a host to reply to that query, the client (laptop's) queries went unanswered and the printer never even knew that someone was trying to send it a print job. This is a software/network configuration issue that will be specific to some setups, and not necessarily a product bug- so you may or may not be affected by it, depending on your network.

Good functions, bad display
I bought this calculator a few years ago for a finance class, and it was easy to use and performed well. I am now taking some other classes that require present value calculations, so I dusted off the calculator. It worked for about a week before the display started malfunctioning. I bought new batteries as other people did, but that is not the problem. I also reset it in the various ways described in the manual, but the display was still malfunctioning. It is very disappointing since the calculator was not actually used that much.

PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY...
I have owned this calculator for 3 months and the dispay is no longer working properly.Parts of the numbers have "burned out" so only parts of the numbers show now.At first I thought it was the batteries.SO I bought replacements and that was NOT the problem.It is now completely useless.At $30, this calc is 10x's more than what a basic calc costs, so that is no excuse for such a poor quality product.PLEASE read the reviews - they all say the SAME thing.I was a fool for buying this.I hope this will help you.

Not Reliable, but highly useful.
Recently the screen on my HP 10bII Financial Calculator stopped working.At first I thought I simply needed new batteries, unfortuntally this was not the case.I owned it for just over two years before it broke down on me.So what did I do?I purchased another one.While I am disappointed with the reliability, I find it to be a highly convienent useful calculator.

I didn't particularly want one
I wasn't really interested in iPods. My youngest son got one of these for Christmas last year and I conceded it was cool, but didn't see the point. After all, I had XM satellite radio and all the music I could stand.
What can you say?It's the iPod
Arguable the best product Apple has ever made, the iPod Video (5G) does exactly what it's supposed to, in the best looking package, with the best user interface.For all the talk of iPod killers, I don't see it happening anytime soon.There's simply nothing better or easier to use than the iPod + iTunes package out there for 95% of consumers.This is the thin wedge into Microsoft's empire!

One of the best impulse buys ever...
We own tons of music, and after owning a megar 700M Rio mp3 player and jumping to an iPod...well there's no comparison! The iPod changed the way we listen to music - perhaps forever. There's nothing that can beat having all of your music in one place where you can draw from a vast library and well...it's extremely entertaining. I would whole-heartedly recommend it for anyone and wish I had enough money to buy everybody I know one for a present because they're great. ... Read more

awesome
I was all set to order this through amazon because I just couldn't justify paying over $400 more just to be able to pick it up (and return it if there was a problem). However, some of the bad reviews prevented me from doing so. I've had problems with shipping companies before so I know I wouldn't want to deal with that crp. IS IT REALLY TRUE HIGH DEFINITION????
The Samsung's spec does not clearly state if the HD-TV accepts a 1080P video signal.I would ask this question because the Blue-ray DVD technology being introduced produces amazing images on a TRUE HD-TV that can accept 1080P video signal.Presently HD-TVs are video rated at 1080i.
Excellent Choice
I, like many other, spent significant time researching LCD televisions. C-NET and others advised the Sony over the Samsung. I have seen both in action at the homes of friends and my eye viewed the Samsung as every bit as good in picture quality if not better than the Sony. So the decision was made on the Samsung based on features and price, anywhere from $200 to $500 cheaper based on my research. The next decision was whether to risk making such a high dollar purchase online, Amazons price being $400 to $600 less than the brick and mortar stores. After reading many reviews here on Amazon, I decided to pull the trigger and order from Amazon. It was an EXCELLENT CHOICE. The set was ordered on a Friday morning, and arrived via EGL on Amazons super saver free freight rate on Tuesday. Three business days or five calendar days. The set beat my satellite installer so I wasn't expecting much from the picture as I pulled it out of the box. I set it up to make sure it was functioning, and as expected the standard def channels were fuzzy. For kicks I connected my cheap Radio Shack rabbit ears into the antenna connection, and went searching for over the air high definition. What I found was that all the networks carried digital channels as did the fringe channels. I am getting Fox, NBC,CBS, CW, and the MY CHANNEL stations in either 480p or 720p. I also get a PBS HD signal in 1080i. When the networks broadcast their hi-def signals they all come in in either 720p or 1080i. All this on a cheap ten dollar Radio Shack rabbit ears antenna. I have a friend who bought a DLP projection, something I was looking at, and he only receives a 480p signal. Samsung obviously got it right with their built in HD tuner. Samsung got it right with their picture as well. Have had none of the picture issues C-NET talks about. Blacks are definately black, whites are very white, no ghosts, no shadows and no picture lag. I highly recommend this set. ... Read more

smaller than I thought and easy to use
I got my zen v and was surprised how tiny it is. It is much smaller than you might think. It's light and easy to use. I found the new joy stick to be a great idea. I didn't have any problems and I dont have tiny fingers. This is an easy player to use and is built beautifully. The quality is as good or better than iPod. I was going to get the zen v plus with video but I couldnt wait and am not that into video on a small player anyhow. The price is very low for these zen v players, especially considering that they are super high build quality. All you have to do is charge the player for a few hours before you mess around with it. So, I highly recommend this delightful player for ease of use and build quality. IMHO it's better than apple and much better than sandisk. You will be impressed. I also would like to stress that the joystick system on this player is easy to use and very simple to figure out. I have had nothing but a good experience using this. Read the manual on the cd if you can hold back from just trying to play with it to figure it out. Even though it doesnt have radio or a video function, the zen v hasa lot of options in its menu to mess around with. I am very impressed with the high quality creative is giving out along with low prices. The mp3 market has a lot of options now but the zen v plus is the best for my money. I have a lot of experience with MP3 players and this is the most impressive one yet for its size. Go to a store and check out how small it really is and how nice the player is put together and how easy the navigation is with the new joystick system. You will probably end up getting one. To be honest though, if you do check it out, you won't freak out how small it is when you get it in the mail like I did before seeing it,so flip a coin on that deal.Have fun!
Nice gadget But...
I bought this to listen to audio books downloaded from my public library. They use overdrive media console which is not compatible with an Ipod.
Buy this today!
The Creative Zen V is just that, Zen.First off, it's the most adored electronic device I own; adored by all who see it.The picture on-line does nothing for how cute it really is, and how compact it is as well.It really can hold 500 songs and the quality is awesome.The interface is SO much better than any other mp3 player I own and it is simply zen to use.All in all, it's very worth the small amount of money it costs!Buy one today, you won't regret it! ...
