This little guy is physically built sturdy. What I mean by that is, it has heft to it. It is not flimsy. It sits on top of my Dell Flat Panel monitor just fine.I know some are worried about motion being blurry, and it can be, I'll be honest. But so can any video in the right lighting. It is only a 2 megapixel camera, lighting is a must. The Right Light thing works, but the frame rate slows when it is in use, making motion more blurry. Just turn on another light--in front of you, and I think you'll be fine.Others have had trouble getting it to work with Skype. I am using this camera on a Vista machine and at first Skype just displayed a screen that was blue, NOT the Blue Screen of Death, but no image, nonetheless. You need to go in to the settings tab in Skype and choose Default Video Device, and it should pick it up--do not choose the name of the camera, it doesn't work that way some how.Overall, I'm pleased. Try to find the right price though, I paid $74 here on Amazon in Nov. '08 and got free super saver shipping. It arrived in about two business days, not counting Veteran's Day. Amazon has been very fast at shipping to the DC area recently.

For what small amount I paid. I feel I have reaped a sure investment! The brightness is perfect for studying. The structure holds well. The only thing is THIS! Everything is literally great! Except this one tiny detail! THIS needs to change. The charger brick. Almost caught fire. It’s a pity really. All the great effort of the lamp in its design. But the fundamental USB plug Adapter is .3 amps, which is insufficient if you plan to use your lamp longer than 25 mins! I switched mine yesterday with an apple .5 block of an adapter, which although it heats nearly to a reasonable amount. It works far better; and is a relief, compared to the almost melting plastic other brick it came with. So I’m all good now. Now that that’s out of the way, I’m thoroughly enjoying this lamp! I love the button options! The lumens are exactly what I need! For the cheapness, its got a sturdiness. Again- once you switch our the cheap charger brick; you are well on your way towards contentedness. But- WARNING. The brick it comes with is a dangerous fire hazard if not switched, run longer than 30 mins. Will likely combust or melt within 24 hrs of being on. Now I can study God’s Word with peace of mind! Thank you inventors for a great lamp! Attention to detail saves lives.

If you've ever had more expensive headphones like twice the cost, don't expect these to get you there again.That being said, if you're first time wanting superb definitive sound, these will deliver, and they will be a big step ahead of the modern convenienced priced 50 and below you could find in retail stores.But the way you need to think about headphones, is, do I want better sound than what I've had before, and in that case, you're going to need to spend much more each time to get those vast improvements, in my limited but discernable experience. I havent gone higher than 175-200 range nor in demo, but I can imagine you'll get bumps in every 100 more you spend as I found out from cheap, to these, to 175-200 price range.With headphones the materials used are fairly standard, designs can change and especially materials which both can significantly impact the delivery/style but you really get what you paid for in this consumer industry due to competition sometimes you have solid performers for their price level as these companies have been around doing this for decades many.

The watch face has many customizable options, and the watch is easy to navigate quickly. I wish that the timer and stopwatch were more easily accessible, those functions are tucked into a “more” folder at the bottom of the general list, however they’re front and center once active. Heart rate is consistent and responsive, and the watch doesn’t do the “reading the heart rate of the counter” thing that some watches do when they aren’t worn. I get around a week off of one charge a couple months into ownership, and I’m not going to hold the o2 stat against them as it’s more of a gimmick than anything. It has fairly standard pros.Downside, I’ve never gotten my phone to sync to my watch and broadcast or alert me of messages, and syncing with the phone is spotty. Naps are also not calculated, as sleep is (1) block of inactivity per day, and cannot be tracked if sleep is broken.It leaves a lot to want, but honestly I paid $30 for it on sale and for that price I would say it’s well worth it. I’m not sure if it would ever live up to the $90 price tag. Overall, it is comfortable, the bands aren’t irritating and cleaning the sensor is easy with no real nooks or crannies for dead skin to hide in.

I simply cannot recommend this enough. Compared to basic onboard motherboard sound, even for a desktop system, unless you paid extra for premium onboard sound on your motherboard, this will open your audio world up.I had an old 5.1 surround headset, with actual multiple drivers in each cup. It was by Triton and whilst they were old, they were a high end model. They were falling apart, literally, held together with duct tape. They were becoming very uncomfortable to wear, all that duct tape adding weight as more needed applying on a daily basis!I had heard a very convincing argument on a review that since you have two ears, then multiple drivers don't make sense and virtual surround was better. So, since I could not afford to get a decent set of genuine surround headphones, I thought I'd go for stereo (Sennheiser HD2.10) with virtual surround. When I first tried the virtual 7.1 surround, I actually heard a sound from behind me that I thought was someone coming into the room and putting the light on! I had never got such a vivid experience with my multiple driver headset.So if you have half decent stereo headphones, do yourself a favour and get some decent to actually drive them. You won't regret it.

I moved to a new place, and I was having problems adjusting to the new noises. I've never used a sound machine, so I didn't want to invest a lot of money until I knew that it worked. I paid ~$20 for this one. I like that it has a battery compartment, if I wanted to take it when traveling. At home, I just plug it in. I really like that I can set it for 15- 30- or 60-minutes, so that it isn't on all night long.The sounds are... OK. The only one I can really handle is the rain. While it's not a gentle patter, it's more of a downpour, but it does provide a level of sound that allows other, outside noises to blend in. I'm not sure who finds random thunder noises soothing? The ocean is nice, but it's too quiet in between the waves for me. Is summer night supposed to be crickets? It sounds like high-pitched, metallic crickets. But what do you expect for ~$20?The first night I set it on rain for 30 minutes. I settled in and focused on the "rain." I changed position a couple times and thought, "This isn't going to work," and then I woke up! So, I am pleased with this. I think my next investment will be one with a remote control. If it's across the room (near the window), and I wake up in the middle of the night, I'd like to be able to start it up again without getting out of bed.

As a former professional musician, I admit to being 'fussy' re: sound. As all of my previous Logitech equipment has rocked, I decided to give their sound system a try, so I'd purchased this set in October of 2011 for my home office. The sound quality is so accurate (regardless of my varied musical tastes) that I now 'retire' to my office to sit back and rock anything from Mozart to Gerald Levert, and everything in between. The bass and treble are outstanding on Rock, Blues, or R&B, and the equally-astonishing high end renders any of my favorite classical pieces a rapture to experience.What struck me was, as with our old analog systems, the better the recording, the more acute the sound. One can actually hear the difference between a great and lesser recording as, with this system, one can tolerate a lesser recording and simply enjoy the music for what it is, while with a great recording, one can close one's eyes and imagine that the musicians are actually in the room. Perhaps that just the way my brain 'processes' sound, but in my opinion, the Z623 offers wonderful sound for this level of equipment, and I'd have happily paid more.

I drive a 2010 B6 (Passat) with the TSI and DSG. My previous Passat was APR Stage 2+ so I missed not having any turbo lag but I don't have time to get to my guys at APTuning to install my new toys so I ordered the K&N filter.This filter is about 1/3 of the thickness of the OEM filter and fits perfectly. As soon as I started the car I noticed that it started and idled smoother. Then I put it in Drive and almost all of the turbo lag was gone! And my commute was averaging 25.5 mpg with mixed city/highway/stomping on the gas/cruising at 65. Now I am getting 30.5 mpg! Unreal! In about 9 weeks of commuting just to work and back this filter will have paid for itself! Add in all the other trips and it will be sooner than that.Now the improvements are much more noticeable and drastic on the turbo motors but they require Premium Unleaded with is 45 cents more a gallon in my area. On a non-turbo you will see better MPGs and smoother idle/acceleration. This filter allows turbos to spool quicker thus producing horsepower much faster. I have a K&N in my wife's Elantra which has a 1.8L motor and she saw nice improvements.Don't delay! Order your K&N filter TODAY!
