You get what you pay for...
There's an old saying, "you get what you pay for".This cannot be more true than when talking about this Logitech VX Revolution mouse.First, let me say that this is WAY overpriced. Paying $80 for a mouse is RIDICULOUS!
Mice basics... Content!
After monitoring this mouse for quite some time, i finally decided to buy it when amazon decreased the price and offered a $10 discount on a future purchase. I had a Microsoft Wireless laser mouse 6000, which was alot bulkier, and inpractical for a laptop user (i use the macbook pro, with windows installed). But my main complaint involved the mouse's sensitivity. Yes, i have toyed around with the tracking and scrolling speed to no avail.
For the price this is not good....
Having burned through three standard Microsoft Optical wireless 3000 mice I decided to shell out for something nice with a high res laser and other features... I have to say in almost every way the Microsoft optical mouse (which cost about 1/3 of this mouse) is superior. The feel in the hand, the connectivity, the response time, everything about that product out of the package was perfect. The best feel of any mouse I've touched. The biggest problem with the Microsoft 3000 notebook-optical-wireless is quality of the parts inside. I had two USB recivers just stop working within two months of purchase, so I decided it was time to look elsewhere and unfortunately that led me to this mouse.

After 2 years of use, its STILL a 5 star printer
I've had my i9900 for almost two years now.I've printed everything from 4x6 glossy prints to 13x19 fine art prints on matte paper.The short review:This printer is amazing.Read on for a longer review.
Great if you only want it for a year
I bought this printer and it was great for a year. The photo printing quality was excellent. It was fast etc. Then it died, Canon service misdiagnosed the burnt board as a power supply issue first then wanted $300 for the repair. Others have reported the same here and elsewhere. Buyer beware on this one.

Absolutely great printer
This is an amazing printer.It is very easy to set up (takes about 10 minutes) and performs almost instantly.I have a mac and I'm always skeptical about adding new printer drivers, but this worked out easily enough.I'm sure it does work, but the firewire connection on my computer didn't read the printer.However, it worked like a charm when I plugged in the USB cable.

Best Trackball Ever!
I have always been a fan of Kensington trackball products, and I thought they had cornered the market with their previous gray and blue model.I was skeptical about replacing that one; but after four years of use, the moving parts were no longer in prestine condition.Fortunately, I had the opportunity of using the new model at work, and I was convinced that this optical K Mouse was well worth owning.Its smooth movement made computer use more enjoyable, and its contour design reduces my wrist stress factor to zero.This input device is awesome!

Not broken in - Heavy ball
I bought two of these and have only used them a couple days.What I dislike most about it is the weight of the trackball.It is too massive to expect to be able to use delicate movements of one finger.It looks like a pool (table) ball that is especially painted.I have a little arthritis and at first I thought I would have to return it.It was annoying to see that the three little red balls that hold up the trackball were so stiff it made the trackball hard to turn.Turning it upside down and rolling it around helped but the stiffness was noticeable for hours.Not what I expect in a quality product. I use the ball with two fingers. The weight of the ball makes the whole thing topheavy so it is difficult to balance on my lap (where I usually use it). I did not like the size and placement of the buttons because there is no really comfortable position for my large hand.I think if Kensington kept the radial design of the buttons but made more of them and if the buttons extended further then I could use their programmabiltiy to get a good fit.
Great, but DON"T WASH THE BALL...
The advice to wash the ball is wrong. I did, and the ball would barely move... friction. Untill Irubbed a little skin oil on it... then it flew! Continues to spin with the slightest toch. It's great. I laughed, I cried. I'll never go back to a regular mouse ever! ... Read more

7/23rds coasters
7 out of 23 of these discs turned into coasters, at 8x speed with my Powerbook G4.(The other two discs had data corruption.)That's unacceptable, and I'll never buy Verbatim again.

small and compact
I really do think this is a great product that they have made.
Love it!
I love this little thing and now that I've had one, I couldn't live without one. I back up files from my laptop, copy stuff off my computer at work at take home to work on. I even share music files with it. In my work, I use a lot of audio files that are just too large to fit onto a CD and therefore are difficult to transfer between computers. (They're like 20 to 35 MB). So this works great for that.

Sandisk 2GB
I just cam from Las Vegas and the sandisk has a disk error that doesn't allow for more photos after only using 40mb. I have tried to format the disk using the camera and through Windows XP. It doesn't allow it to be formatted. Bad investment!!! Would not recommend the product unless there is a way I can get a refund or an exchange.

Good for Canon a95
Fantastic, take all the videos and pictures you want with the best quality.

Is It Worth Buying
I have been using 3 - 128mb, 1 -256mb, and 1 -8mb card with my 2.1 megapixel camera.That got me about 648 photos which has been great for vacations, etc.With the purchase of a new 7 megapixel camera, I found that my photo storage dropped to about 202 photos which was definitely not enough.With the 2gb card, I can take a minimum of 650 photos without changing cards.With my existing cards, that totals at about 850 photos.That number goes up if I use my macro or supermacro settings (they drop the image size to the medium setting).I have had no problems with any of my compact flash cards (all of them being sandisk), all have worked consistently and without issue. ...

Simply Excellent
The Good:
TERRIBLE RELIABILITY
Even though I have used my printer (a Pixma 5000) very lightly, it jams regularly on Canon photo paper and then spills ink everywhere. Today it went into "service error 5700" and it doesn't work any more, even after rebooting it five times.

Amazing Quality
I just upgraded my webcam (logitech 5 yrs old) to this, the difference is day and night, quality is very good; Even during the night time the quality is much better than my day time logitech (5 yrs old) webcam. I am a very satistified customers, would recommend to anyone....

It's a webcam!
I think this little guy is great for what he is supposed to be: a webcam!Doesn't take fabulous pictures, doesn't have the most stunning resolution, and the sound via the microphone attachment is less than adequate.However, it does provide a decent realtime image for online chatting or web video conferencing.

It Couldn't be Better....For the First Game....
I LOVE this game!The storyline is wonderful!I guess if you feel bored with the campaign, just go looking for easter eggs!But what I LOVE is playing multiplayer!And someone did bash the multiplayer, but there are TONS of rooms that will kick you out for cussing and/or killing your teammates! I've had this game for years, and I never get tired of playing online!Actually...it's kind of addicting...

Halo is an ausome game no matter what the other reviews say!
Halo combat evolved is one of the best games I have played. I haven't played multiplayer yet. This game has good graphics and a great storyline. You start out on the human ship the pillar of autumn. The covenent (sorry if i spelled this wrong) ship has cought up with the pillar of autumn and has boarded it. The covenent are aliens fighting to destroy the human race. Your only choice is to take cortana the main information program and try to escape the damaged pillar of autumn. You escape onto a giant ring floating in space. The outside of the ring is metal. But the inside is a world much like earth. The covenent believe Halo(the ring) is a weapon. The covenent do not know how to use Halo yet. You find Halo's main control system and find out what Halo really is. It is a prison for the flood. The human flood are truly gross creatures and I will not go into full detail about their "habits". Halo is not only a prison to keep the flood from escaping and spreading across the universe but it is also a place to study the human flood. This is only a few parts of the game. Don't ask me how I went from building to building without getting lost. All of the buildings look the same on the inside so watch out! I love the machines you get to ride in. My favorites are the ghosts. I highly recommend this game to any gamer anywhere.

Highly reccomended way to become socially reclusive!
Love this game. Great story line. Just make sure your computer can handle it. ... Read more

Reliable optical technology combined with an innovative scroll wheel that acts as a third button sets Logitech's 904353-0403 Trackman Wheel Optical apart from ordinary trackball mice. Patented optical technology provides superior precision, reduced wear, and smooth motion, and eliminates the need for regular cleaning. The scroll wheel provides easy scrolling and the added convenience of an extra mouse button, enabling you to jump easily to your favorite Web sites. The ball is ideally positioned for thumb operation, and the comfortable shape of the mouse allows for strain-free extended use. Its smaller size also saves desk space, reduces hand and wrist movement, and plugs very easily into your system's USB or PS/2 port. Compatible with both Windows and Macintosh systems. ... Read more

Love it...
This is my first trackball mouse, and I am so happy that I discovered it. This mouse is the perfect size for my hand and has become even more natural over the past few months than a regular mouse...
Trackball a must!!
I have always sworn by Logitech Trackballs, and this one did not disappoint.Very comfortable, easy to use, and a great price.

Solved my RSI issues
I was very reluctant to try a ball instead of a mouse, but my IH ergonomist said she would stop nagging me if I tried this for a week and if I did not like it she'd switch me back. After two days I told her she was not getting the Trackman Wheel back. That was five years ago and since then I have insisted on these on my computers at work and bought them for my computers at home, all told I've acquired about six of these little guys. I love them.

DOA G-Wireless
Used this card to replace a Linksys WUSB54G Wireless-G USB Adapter that had start to act up on me. I was going to install a 5 port USB PCI hub so I figured, "Why not ditch the corded adapter while I'm cracking the case?".
Excellent with XP
This item works excellent with XP, you get an excellent signal with excellent software.The ugly antenna the person before is talking about is a 5 db antenna, while other manufactors only give you a cheap 2 db antenna.That is why the reception on this item is so good.Also who cares about the antenna, when it is behind the computer and you cant see it, but you can see the excellent reception.You are not buying it for looks, but for the performance.The software does not work with 98, even though the ratings says it does.

Easy, quick and powerful
This is one very powerful and easy piece of equipment that you should be able to have up and running in under 10 minutes. I installed it on a relatively new (6 months old) Dell XP desktop. Like they say in the instructions, load the CD BEFORE you try to install the card. Follow the instuctions on the screen and you should be all set. I have an ATT 2WIRE wireless DSL router with an Apple Airport attached for increased range. This card detected both of the wireless routers and asked which one I would like to link up to. Since I was closer to the Airport I chose that one, clicked on it, and I was up and running in seconds. I don't really download a lot of big video files, but what I do download seems to open as quick, if not quicker, than when I was hardwired to the router. Web pages open as quickly also.Sure I installed it on a desktop that isn't going anywhere, but hey - one less wire under my feet.... Now if I could just get my stupid Dell to find and share my printer with my Mac...but that's another story. ... Read more

nice device indeed but the mini-optical port will cost you extra
If you want to hook your airport express to your stereo via optical cable, you can; but you will need to buy a "mini-optical" cable or buy a little connector-converter for your regular-size optical cable.
This is all I needed
I was having problems hooking up my laptop soundcard to my home stereo. There was an annoying hum if the video and computer equipment were hooked up together even on separate rca inputs. I was thinking of getting a new sound card. For a few bucks more, this was a wiser choice. No more wires hanging from my laptop, no more hum when everything is connected.

Editorial Review

The Linksys EtherFast cable/DSL router connects multiple PCs to a high-speed broadband Internet connection or to an Ethernet backbone. Configurable as a DHCP server, the EtherFast router acts as the only externally recognized Internet device on your local area network (LAN). The router can also be configured to block internal users' access to the Internet. A typical router relies on a hub or a switch to share its Internet connection, but the Linksys EtherFast router channels this connection through the full-duplex speed of its built-in EtherFast 10/100 four-port switch. This combination of router and switch technology eliminates the need to buy an additional hub or switch and serves your network as a completely dedicated, full-duplex backbone. Now your entire network can enjoy broadband Internet connections supported by its switched backbone. This unit requires an external cable or DSL modem with an Ethernet RJ-45 interface. This product comes with a one-year warranty.Read more

Not worth the hassle
Please search for the thread on the linksys support forum titled "BEFSR41 v4 intermittent drop of connection" which goes on for 4 pages with no reply from linksys support, I'd post a URL but that is against the review guidelines here at amazon.
Be leary of the befsr41
I have had several of these routers over the years.. I currently have the v2 but the problem I am having is not version specific.I get disconnected from IRC and any messenger I am using about ever 5 -10 minutes at best.I have changed the firmware numerous times... I have reset the router I have actually changed the router out to no avail.This equipment is faulty and Linksys refuses to acknowledge the problem.If you type in Befsr41+disconnects you will see this is a problem with the entire product line... and most of us can not resolve this without removing this piece of equipment from the equation.

Easy to set up Router
LinkSys has put out a wired router that can be set up in minutes and without a glitch.The easiest way to configure it is to go directly to their website and they will automatically configure it.I had this up and running in a few minutes; they also provide support without waiting on the phone for an extended time.I have had other routers that had numerous glitches/problems and poor support...not LinkSys: they put out quality and user-friendly products! ...

Probably the best gamepad for PCS from logitech...it rumbles just like console controllers...cordless...and has the basic same feel as other console controllers...more closer to the playstaion one though...keep in mind the ru
