The Sony MDRV6 excells as the best value of any headphone that I've ever owned.  They are especially good at producing natural-sounding deep bass, and the overall octave-to-octave balance is excellent.  The sound quality is all in all comparable to other headphones that cost considerably more.The MDRV6 is especially well-suited for travel due to the collapsible design, and for noisy environments or for quiet environments such as a library where the sound emitted by open-back headphones would distract others.The MDRV6 is not quite as comfortable as some other headphones, but the comfort can be improved enormously by replacing the pads with the velour pads from BeyerDynamic.  The pads that come on the MDRV6 have a non-breathable cover, and significant additional discomfort is caused by the way that the thin foam cover is glued to the pad around the inner circumference of the pad, which prevents the top and back of your ear from slipping into the space between the pad and the face of the headphone.  This forces the pad to rest on the back of the ear, which compresses the ear and eventually becomes uncomfortable.  I read on a web forum where several people had replaced the pads (which eventually come apart) with a velour pad made by BeyerDynamic, and after I did this replacement on my one pair that had a damaged pad, the increase in comfort was so great that I immediately did the other pair.  The thin cover can be glued down to the headphone face if needed to hold it in place, which then allows the top and rear of your ear to naturally  slide under the inner circumference of the pad, which is considerably more comfortable.  I can recommend this trivial modification without reservation to anyone who owns these headphones.  Even if you don't replace the pads with the BeyerDynamic velour pads, I suggest removing the pads anyway, then carefully separating the thin cover from the pad, and glueing the cover directly to the headphone surface."}]}, {"title": "B00005LEN4", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "How would you describe the texture of the lens at all focal lengths above 150mm?", "id": "b01740bc2d7f437398dfbb43073398a7", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "UPDATED: 5/20/2011:  I used my D700, and only my 50mm F1.8 to capture my Grandson's first haircut!  I posted an image here.  And, on the way home following the haircut, a clearing storm brought some gorgeous bluish-black clouds at dusk so I swung down towards the river and shot a couple of shots with the 50mm.  I posted one here called \"Blue Hour\".  Enjoy.  Seriously, can't go wrong -- though the price seems to be creeping upwards...This 50mm 1.8 is an excellent purchase at around a hundred bucks.  I hate to use the word investment, because we know camera equipment is definitely NOT an investment.  I bought it because I heard so much about it, and, I had a 50mm back in my old film days.  I have not  been disappointed.  I will agree with  many here who say that at F1.8 the results are less than stellar.  This is true--- there is a lack of contrast, not necessarily sharpness (at least in my copy of the lens) that you will notice.  Since I know that as a fact going in to a shoot or session, I set my aperture at F2.0, or F2.2 on my D700, or D300.  This solves the problem.  The resulting images at F 2.0 and above are amazingly sharp, and clear.  Don't get me wrong, I love my 16-35F4VR, and my 24-70F2.8 but this 50mm rocks as a standalone lens when the situation demands fast lens.  As a matter of fact, in a few hours I'm heading off to my grandsons first haircut of his life.  What did I pack?  The D700 (for better high ISO performance than the D300), and my 50mm 1.8.For the price (which seems to have risen lately and rightly so) you can't go wrong.  Even if you have other zoom lenses that cover this range as I do, this lens is unbelievably useful in low light to no light situations.  Personally, I'm lazy and hate zooming with my feet, but I'd much rather do that with this lens, than either using flash, or blurring photos of important events.The lens finish is plasticy but so what?  Are you going to be banging it around on a regular basis?  My 50mm travels with me just about everywhere either in a camera bag, or in my North Face Recon backpack (not a camera backpack) just about everywhere, and I pump about 80,000 images a year per body, between landscapes, motorsports, portraits, etc.  So far, so good.  It does stand up to a beating.  I do not use any protective filter on it as the glass is relatively well recessed on this lens.When I do need to use filters such as polarizers, or ND's, I have step-up rings that take the lens from the 52mm size to 77mm which is the standard size of all my filters. It does look \"strange\" having the tiny little 50mm lens hidden behind a huge 77mm filter, but it WORKS.Again, if you are looking to make an investment -- there's that ugly word again, make that acquisition, to your photo gear you can't go wrong at this price point; If you wind up hating it, there's always the ability to return it, or sell it on eBay.Enjoy."}]}, {"title": "B00006B7DA", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "How is the thing?", "id": "bfcaa4005b2a8c3c221cb97925a60c6f", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "It worked fine at the start but within a week individual ports ceased to function (so far 2).

Here are the best features from my perspective:1.  The range of telephoto zoom is adequate for 90% of photo opportunites.  28-135 mm telephoto in digital photography translates into 48-230 mm in SLR film photography.  Since a standard camera lens is 50-55 mm, the starting range of this zoom lens equals that and then has the added versatility of zooming up to 135 mm (or 230mm in old style camera figures).  In my opinion, this added range of framing a shot gives the photographer so much more creativity, as well as being able to bring objects into closer, more intimate range.  I mentioned that this lens is good for 90% of all general camera shots; the missing 10% are those pictures that require a better zoom (more telephoto zoom), and those pics that need a wider field of view.  You may find that for group photos in close proximity, you want to take a step backwards to get everybody in the frame.  This is not a problem unless you simply don't have the room to take that step back.  I solved this problem by switching back to the original 18-55mm lens that came with the camera.  For the more distant shots that can't be drawn into the 135mm zoom of this lens I purchased a better telephoto zoom.2.  The lens has autofocus and IS stabilization technology.  For one used to manual focus lenses in SLR film photography, the addition of a fast autofocus lens is a terrific feature! I used to miss those spur of the moment shots because I was trying to achieve focus.  With this lens, you make those shots, because within a milisecond of depressing the shutter down halfway, the picture snaps into focus!  I absolutely love this feature!  The focuser has many points of potential focus, so it adapts easily to virtually all focusing situations.  For the really difficult focusing shots, there is the option of manual focusing.  While nice to have, I rarely use this option.  The Image Stabilization feature is a handy one in the longer shots.  \"IS\" lets one get away with a bit of camera shake without too much out-of-focus smear on the picture.  Canon does not recommend using the IS feature on tripod shots, so there is a switch to turn off the IS if desired.3.  The lens takes sharp clear pictures.  I have not been disappointed with the quality of the lens at all.Drawbacks1.  While there are not too many drawbacks to this lens, I think the major one is that the lens is bigger and heavier, in fact, much bigger and heavier than the standard 17-55 mm lenses that come with SLR cameras.  For me this is not a problem, however, for one that wants to have a lighter-weight camera, this could be considered a serious drawback.  On the other hand, a SLR camera like the Canon 20D or digital Rebel is not designed to be a smaller pocket-sized camera.  It is a larger format camera and of course the lenses will be larger (and heavier) as well.2.  Cost.  At just over 400 dollars, this lens is an investment.  Again, one has to weigh the obvious financial outlay, but the 28-135 mm lens is so superior to the cheaper 18-55 mm lens, that in my opinion, it is well worth the cost to upgrade.With this product, Canon made a great everyday camera lens.  From my perspective, the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages and I do recommend this lens to be your everyday standard camera lens.Jim \"Konedog\" Koenig"}, {"qas": [{"question": "How is the contrast?", "id": "f549e9a738cf0d02079b078098752587", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "I am not a professional or expert photographer...so take these comments with this in mind.I have two Canon cameras, a 40D and a 60D.  I have two other Canon IS USM lenses, a 17-55 f2.8 and a 70-300 f4-f5.6.  I bought this lens to fill the gap between the two.I haven't had this new lens very long, but here are my initial impressions...  First, it's shorter (when zoomed out), lighter and smaller in diameter than the 17-55 f2.8 lens that was previously our typical carry-around lens.  Obviously, it doesn't work as well in low light as the f2.8 lens, but that's to be expected.  Still, it takes very nice pictures, and doesn't seem too limited by the smaller aperture.  The colors seem accurate, and the IS seems to work very well.The barrel doesn't rotate, either when zooming or focusing, so it is possible to use filters that rely on a fixed orientation.  This is not the case with my 70-300mm zoom...that lens rotates as it focuses.  Though it isn't a big deal to me, others might be more concerned with this.My only complaint with this lens is that, unlike my other two Canon IS USM zoom lenses, it will extend under it's own weight when the camera is facing down.  And there is no lock (again, unlike my other two lenses) to keep it in it's shortest length during transport.  This annoys me when I'm carrying the camera.Comparing pictures taken with this lens to those taken with my 70-300 lens (at 70 and 135...the widest two lengths common to both lenses)...this lens seemed to have slightly more vivid colors, and a wider DOF.  The depth of field was to be expected, I'd think, given the shorter lens and slightly larger aperture.  The more vivid colors, I guess, could be explained the same way, though the difference was very small.  Both lenses produced very nice results, IMO.My lens was a white-box lens...which was not mentioned in the product description.  I half-expected this, given that the price I paid was low...lower even than the current prime price shown on Amazon for this item.  But I would like to have seen the item description accurately state this up front.  The lens came wrapped in a single layer of bubble-wrap inside a plain white cardboard box.  This was, in turn, shipped inside a slightly larger box and padded with packing paper.  There was no documentation or software included (save for the warranty card, which WAS included), as you'd get with a lens sold in retail packaging...so be aware that this is the case.  Nonetheless, my lens arrived quickly, and intact.  My order was fulfilled by ALLTIMEDEALS."}]}, {"title": "B00007E7C8", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "Is the cord safe to grab the transformer?", "id": "31dafa4be0622f4f154590453c7562b5", "answers": [{"text": "The cord is very long and durable", "answer_start": 186}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "After being disappointed by a $50 pair of Sony headphones, I snagged these Audio-Technica's based on the reviews here on Amazon.

They're very durable and can take a beating.The sound quality for a non-amplified pair of headphones is nothing short of amazing. The majority of headphones in this price range are boomy, obnoxious headphones with poor midrange and high end performance.

Because I am not a professional photographer who gets paid to shoot, my budget is limited. This lens is one of the least expensive, quality lenses that could find. The result will surprise you.This lens is now my favorite when shooting portraits. Because of its wide aperture, you can really blur the background, even indoors. It's great for low-light shots for the same reason (wide-aperture).I highly recommend this lens to all amateur photographers as their first prime lens.

Since she is pregnant with her 5th kid, I recommended this budget lens as an all-purpose affordable lens that gives a lot of bang for the buck. Personally, i shoot with the 50mm 1.4 which I love, but this does the trick, especially on a 1.6x body like the rebel xti. Anyone learning photography is wise to get a prime lens and learn to frame shots by moving around. Some say zoom lenses make people lazy. By moving around you can actually find better angles and shots than if you could just adjust a zoom. Sure, zooms are great, but prime's are both cheaper and better, and make better photographers, especially for someone just starting out with a dslr on a budget. The main difference to the 1.4 is the build quality is better on the 1.4 and the bokeh is smoother, not to mention a lower f-stop means lower light shooting without cranking up the ISO but not by much. This is perfectly adequate and for $104 on amazon, a no brainer."}, {"qas": [{"question": "How is the quality of picture?", "id": "9ff07404dce2a09686a659a79cd4f5dd", "answers": [{"text": "build quality is cheap", "answer_start": 70}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "I fell in love with the lens the moment I started using it. sure, the build quality is cheap. it's all plastic and the focusing sounds like a blender, but the quality of the pictures is amazing for a 120 dollar lens. saturation of colors is excellent, no noticeable chromatic aberration, great sharpness. I prefer this to the t2i stock lens since the colors are more saturated and picture is sharper, not to mention the 1.8f aperture. Some people say they don't use the 18-55mm since they found this lens. I have to disagree. The 18-55 is too versatile to be substituted with this prime 50mm. but this lens definetely takes better pictures than the 18-55 at 50mm.I have a t2i and 3 lens: the 18-55, the 55-250 and this one.

There is a flap that covers the zipper all the way around and this would act as a line of defense between the inside and the rain.This case also has a tripod strap that allows you to strap a tripod onto the backpack, I do not have a great tripod, but when I used this with my tripod it worked fine for the most part. The only issue I had was that it did not hold the tripod in position, it seemed to slip out more to one side or the other while walking at extended distances.

It's quite a stunning thing to see photos with this lens shot with a little XSi. Once you have enough skill to get your modes set right you can be shooting portraits, animals, flowers, product shots (I do a lot of that) and a ton of other great stuff with this bit of glass.If your shooting a crop body like I do, you'll need a wide angle lens for those landscape and indoor shots where this thing doesn't get wide enough. I use a Sigma 20mm f/1.8 for those times. It's a great standard lens for crop bodies, the sharpness and depth of field effects you can get from opening up that big 1.8 aperture are stunning.But this Tamron zoom is no slouch either when it comes to bokeh and sharpness. Stop it down to 4 or so and in decent light it will give you excellent sharpness, contrast and color. I find I seldom reach for the 20mm except when I want to get right up next to a flower or insect or maybe a piece of jewelry in a product photo, open the aperture and get really smeared backgrounds.You can do that with the Tamron. But the Sigma seems to produce the better backgrounds in those situations. You just have to get real close and personal with the camera.Last fall we were camping at a local reservoir in central PA during the height of the fall colors when I found a huge spider in a fully formed, quite beautiful web. It had recently rained and the web had a lot of those nice dewy droplets on its filaments. I was able, with this Tamron, to get very close to spidey and web, choke off a lot of depth of field and soften the water and multicolored trees in the background to a beautiful palette of color with only hints of shape. That was one of the best series of shots I've ever taken, and it was with this lens. Stopped down a bit to give more form to the background and spidey was in a whole new light.This lens works for weddings and birthdays, school plays, picnics, tourism, whatever.If you need more zoom than this, maybe you should buy a telescope. I can see needing a wider lens than this, but if you can't zoom close enough, shoot RAW and enlarge. This zoom range is perfect for 90% of my image composition within the range it shoots.It's much easier to compose than with my 20mm Sigma prime. Any prime lens will have you walking around, backing up, moving in, trying to get that frame right. The payoff is unbeatable sharpness and speed per dollar.However, this 2.8 zoom lens is plenty fast, and very sharp as well.I bought this lens a couple years ago for under $400. The Sigma prime cost more than that, and I only use it for about ten percent of my shots.This thing is so far beyond the price in terms of capability, that I will buy another one if this one ever breaks.Recommended."}]}, {"title": "B0000BZOGJ", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "What is strap?", "id": "19d6980d862e90d9170006eaa8516e58", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "I purchased this just this week, and while it holds myHP Pavilion DV9830US 17\" Laptopsufficiently, it's not what I hoped for.

There is also a front flap that's not sealed, so if you're caught in the rain that compartment will get water in it.Overall, I wasn't clear on who they designed this for. It was a water bottle holder and some sections that make it seem more like a sport backpack than a student / business travel oriented item, and yet no one is going to go hiking with a 17\" laptop... are they?

I went from 7 stations and 15 channels to 17 stations and 43 channels. The furthest is +55 miles. Another is 42 miles... NO problem with either. However most of my stations are with in 22 miles and mostly in one direction. I would say if all your stations are out +40 miles this should work but you might start to thing about an outdoor Bow-Tie antenna. HOWEVER it depends on your house and terrain. If your house is wood, drywall, vinyl siding, with antenna near a second floor window facing toward the station, good to go. If you are in the middle of a brick building, no windows, you can expect less than spectacular performance (I am assuming). OUTDOOR antennas are always better, but I am very impressed. I am an engineer and my hobby is radio and antennas.Since most of my stations I care about are all in one direction I can just set and forget. However if your stations are scattered to the four winds it could be a hassle always having to aim it. Most stations are South East but one is West. It comes in no matter what direction I turn it. It is the strongest station at 17 miles. Two of the distant stations need the antenna to be aimed; they are in different directions and need the antenna to be aimed, but for the most part 90% of my stations are all in one direction.There is no real solution for stations in many directions, even with an outdoor antenna, which would need a \"ROTOR\" to turn it to different direction. With the Terk HDTVa the further out the station the more you have to aim it. This is OK and what gives the antenna it's power and low noise. However it is NOT an omnidirectional antenna. Typically omni directional antennas don't have the performance, as they are a compromise for convenience. You will never get range with an omni direction antenna. Even basic rabbit ears are bi-directional.The two petty gripes others always mention and I will repeat, is the base is narrow so it's tippy side to side. Also because the rabbit ears (the dipole whip antennas) are angled back, you have to give it room, 10\" much more depending on the angle of the base to the wall and how wide you have the whips spread out."}]}, {"title": "B0007QKMQY", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "How many modes does the car have?", "id": "850a401d27d2ba308d9a39bf66d50dd8", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "Canon has fully redesigned the Digital Rebel XT series to make it lighter, smaller, better and even more feature loaded.Pro's,1.

I originally was going to get the 24-70mm f/2.8 lens, but someone in one of the forums suggest I look at this one.  Though I lost a stop of light, I was very much sold on the IS idea (hands shake) and the cost difference between the two allowed me to invest in the Canon 430 EX II flash, which was something else I really needed to invest in, so I decided the trade-off was worth it for my purposes.I've been using the lens now for about a week, experimenting with the IS, the focus, depth of field, etc.  I wanted to be pretty sure I knew what it could do before I wrote a review.Focus and focal range:  my camera focuses very quickly with this lens, and the full-time manual focus is great for those moments when the camera \"guesses wrong\" and focuses on, say, the post beside the bird instead of the bird itself.  I was pleased that 24-105 is workable as an indoor lens on a crop sensor camera.  I didn't run into any \"have to back up to get that picture\" moments so far.  It definitely isn't an ultra-wide lens on a crop sensor body, but can be used comfortably every day.  The zoom works well for the across the room zooms when you're trying to just get the subject's face in the camera, making this a great choice as a walk-around lens for most people photography.Sharpness:  I bought this at the same time as the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM lens, so I have a much sharper lens (the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II is a definite \"wow\" lens) to compare it to, so I will say this lens is acceptably, moderately sharp without a lot of post-processing.  Not as sharp as the 70-200mm f/2.8L lens (it also costs half as much), but sharper than the kit lens and the 55-250mm lens that I had with my T1i, requiring less post-processing to get a sharp image.  The colors are rich and the contrast is excellent, creating a pleasing image.Build quality and feel: if you are someone coming from the consumer lens category you will immediately notice the difference.  From the weight of the lens to the \"feel\" of the focus and zoom rings and the more quiet, assured zoom you realize there are reasons why L glass costs more beyond just the research and engineering required to make a higher quality image.  The IS also runs more quietly than the IS in the consumer-level lenses.  The lens is built dust and weather resistant, meaning that it can stand up to a little weather here and there, etc.  Additionally it comes with a pouch and lens hood included.  Unlike what I can research about the consumer hoods, the lens hood on L-glass comes with a flocked interior, which absorbs light better than the plain matte-black plastic.I am very pleased with my choice, and would definitely probably do the same thing again without hesitation.  Now I am debating between the 16-35mm f/2.8L II and the 17-40mm f/4L.

I find this zoom range essential for event photography.Indoors I am not quite as happy with this lens -- I have to ramp up my ISO pretty high as I am rarely on a tripod indoors (weddings and events).  If this lens came out in a 2.8 I would replace it in a heart beat, but I am not interested in the 24-70 2.8 because I would miss that extra focal length.Anyway, this is a great all around lens and is my favorite for event photography and as my personal \"walkabout\" lens when I'm on vacation.

No Brick and Mortar store carried one for me to look at. So I delayed for months before bying anything. Then I got an opportunity to play with the Zune. Here is what I liked.Its a good form factor for me. I know people love their skinny iPods but for me that would encourage putting in places it will get bent and none of these devices do well with that! Also, I like the size of it because my hands are big and I have something to hold on to.I like the big wide screen but don't be fooled, its still a 4:3 ratio and not 16:9. The best films to rip are fullscreen not wide screen. I've used the AVS DVDtoGO software for that. The picture quality is great. Very colorful and sharp. The size of the screen means my eyes can see it well.The software is good. It takes a bit of getting used to. I was expecting to drag and drop files onto a file system but that isn't how the Zune works. You create a library and it synchronizes. You get a lot of options on how you want to view this library and you get a lot of options on how you create playlists. It took a while to figure out how to keep some files off the Zune (like screenshots for work that I had in My Pictures) but once you figure it out it makes sense.The sound quality is excellent and the reception on the FM radio is also excellent! It uses RDS to get song information and station identification. The interface is very clean and easy to use.Things that are missing that you should know about: The Zune cannot act as a USB hard drive. This is probably a big surprise to many. Also, the Zune cannot record either voice via microphone or its Digital FM signal.I like the Zune quite a bit. Its easy to use and shows quality workmanship.

The VX Nano is a better choice for a laptop.What I like about both the MX Revolution and the VX Nano is the wonderful scroll wheel and the several buttons, which are configurable with software that must be downloaded from Logitech. What I do not like about the VX Nano is it's small size and I have small hands. The VX Nano is about the size of the Apple Mighty Mouse."}]}, {"title": "B000V5P90K", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "What is the size of the camera sensor?", "id": "9901ef73e43be7acdf61055cc5f3728c", "answers": [{"text": "There is just so much to praise about this camera", "answer_start": 272}, {"text": "large LCD screen", "answer_start": 324}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "I bought a Canon 20D just over 2 years ago and thought it was a brilliant camera.

I have it about 5 days now and I'm like a child at Christmas.There is just so much to praise about this camera - large LCD screen which is very clear, faster focusing, especially when using centre focus point, larger burst rate - ok, this has now caused me no end of problems, like firing off a burst of 20 images when I really only needed 3, and filling my memory card in no time.This camera is well worth it's price. It's a brilliant step between the 400D and the 1D. I don't have the need (nor money) for the 1D Mk III. This new 40D is just what I need.My first day of shooting with it was at a horse racing event. I was between two other photographers - one using a 30D and the other using a 1D. I felt like mine was capturing just what I wanted and in brilliant clarity. Ok, not the same fps as the 1D, but my friend with his 30D kept looking at me and laughing - it was because he would get 2-3 shots and I was taking about 20.For anyone thinking of this camera - try it out.

I also wanted to try writing versus typing on my computer. I have software that supports tablet devices, so when I found a Bamboo at a reasonable price I decided to give it a try. It proved to be a good purchase for a couple of reasons, none of which have to do with my [in]ability to draw.The device is small, just a little bigger than a mouse pad. The writing area is even smaller, being about the size of a standard index card. I wasn't sure how I would manage this area in which to work at first, but I knew the dimensions when I bought it, so no complaints.Installation was easy. I plugged it into the USB port, installed the drivers and was up and running in minutes. There were no snags in the process and no surprises.I immediately was able to start working with the tablet and found it to be an excellent substitute for a mouse, once I got used to it. The biggest hurdle was discovering that tablets do not scroll like mice - picking up the pen and moving it to a new place on the writing surface makes the pen jump on the screen. Lower left corner on the tablet = lower left corner on the screen and so on. There are very distinct advantages and disadvantages to this. On one hand, it makes pinpointing on the screen very easy and straightforward, but on the other it takes some time to adjust from relative positioning to absolute.I fired up my drawing software and experimented. Just like a real pen, the pressure on the pad can be varied to make lines drawn on the canvas stonger or softer and I was able to draw very heavy lines and very faint lines. There are 512 pressure levels, which is sufficient for the casual user like me, but more serious artists may require more fine control over the pressure.I was unsuccessful in my efforts to use it as a writing tool. It is not that it doesn't work, it is more a function of impatience on my part. I found that I could not make the adjustment to writing on an abstract surface and have it look right. Usually, the software translated my writing into the wrong thing and I would have to go back and type. I did not try very long so I didn't give this much of a chance.One thing that tripped me up was the \"flicking\" motion that could be used for scrolling once the drivers were installed. I got used to it and came to appreciate it, but at first it was frustrating because I would inadvertently flick and the canvas area would scroll.I did find that using this device has limited use when gaming. For games like chess and sudoku, it is far and away better than a regular mouse. For 3D shooters or something akin to tetris, this is absolutely the wrong device for controlling the pointer.The biggest benefit for me was in using it as a general pointing device. Holding the pen is easier on my hands than messing with a mouse, which resulted in a lot less cramping when working. I have tried trackballs, cordless mice and even the touchpad on my laptop, and none are as comfortable as the pen.I did not keep my Bamboo Small, I passed it on to my niece who is very artistic. I gave it up because, to be honest, I wanted a larger tablet. I replaced it with an Intuos4 Medium which better fits my hands.The Bamboo Small tablet and pen is an excellent entry point in the tablet market for anyone wanting to learn about tablets and how they can work out. My experience with this device was excellent and I can recommend it for its ease of setup , simple use, and in my case comfort. As I said above, the main reason I parted with mine was to get a larger tablet, but for people with smaller hands or limited budgets this is a wonderful tablet with which to start."}]}, {"title": "B000WOIFO2", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "Was the case loose?", "id": "80f26fa58bcbd5766a406a3cf965692b", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "DLO makes good quality accessory cases for the iPOD touch, although they are a bit pricey.

This remote is being used to control : Hitachi 32HDL51 TV, DishNetwork DVR-625, Sony STR-DA7ES receiver, JVC HR-S9911U VHS, HP Z540 computer, Archos AV-500 PVR and an X10 light controller.  So far the only problem I've had is with the X10 controller, but I haven't put any time into debugging it.The computer I am using for programming the remote is a Dell E521 ( AMD 64X2 5600+ processor ) running Windows XP Pro SP2. Installing and running the software was quite straightforward ( I'm on a 3Mbps DSL connection ).  I find the software to be fairly intuitive, but did note the \"strange\" English that other reviewers have mentioned.The only glitch I ran into when doing the initial setup for the remote was that the software wanted to \"read\" some of the signals for the DVR-625 and the Sony receiver though I had checked before buying the remote to make sure they were supported.  It then occurred to me that both of these units have TWO remote controls ( both have two-room capability ).  The software was just checking to see which remote I was using.  BUT that showed me that the folks who have complained about the remote's learning capability have legitimate concerns.  I have had a number of teachable remotes, and this is the first one I've had a problem with.  The main problem seemed to be lighting - I had to turn off a lamp about 3 feet away before I had any success at all.  Then, if I had the remotes about 3\" apart, and pressed the button for no more than 1 second, the signals were received ok.  This is the main reason for a 4 star rating rather than 5 star.I spent most of today setting up the \"favorite channels\" on the remote.  The only reason it took so long was that I searched the web for appropriate icons to use, then had to edit them to get 75x44 pixel images ( don't try to use any other size - the icons \"stretch\" to fit 75x44 ).  A really good source for \"nice\" icons is [...]After getting the icons, setting up the favorite channels feature was a breeze.  And, best of all, it actually works.As far as the physical design of the remote, I find it very easy to use.  A lot of thought went into the placement of the buttons, and I have no trouble using it with \"one hand operation\".  The remote I replaced with this one was also a touch-screen ( rather old Sony one ), so I have no problem with the touch-screen.  I also have fairly small fingers, so that may help!  It is a fairly small screen.  I find the lighted buttons to be extremely useful, and it's pretty neat that they turn on as soon as you pick up the remote.  I can't comment too much on the battery life, since I've only had it for 3 days.  But the battery indicator hasn't moved very far from full during that time.In conclusion, I'm quite satisfied with this remote.  Before buying one, make sure it will control your components with a minimum of \"teaching\", because that's a real bummer.  You can check all your components on Logitech's home page.Added after initial review:  Just noticed the remote wasn't really turning the DishNetwork DVR on or off.  The \"help\" and \"device\" could turn it on/off, but not the \"activity\".  I wasn't able to correct the problem with any of the adjustments, but the setup allows one to add steps to activities.  I added a \"select\" to turn it on and \"power toggle\" to turn it off.

However, the auto-focus doesn't work all that well if the lighting isn't perfect.  Given a nice sunny day, the auto-focus is very responsive and accurate.  If you're indoors, or shooting at dusk, be prepared to wait up to several seconds for the focus to be set; if it can acquire focus at all.  I find that if I am dealing with dim lit shots of a static subject, manual focus is much more effective.Upon the first use of this lens, I thought something was broken.  This is because the image stabilization makes a light grinding noise.  While the noise can be annoying while taking pictures, it can be catastrophic when recording a video.  Consider that the grinding noise is coming from a lens directly attached to the camera.  This grinding travels very well to the internal microphone, and is forever recorded with your video.As a side note: It would also be nice if Canon started putting their lens caps on leashes.

But here are the grips (I prefer the cons in a review more than the pros) in no particular order.1) The Camera is BIG. Easy to hold but BIG. Love the flip screen - but the camera is BIG. Great lens - but BIG. I guess what I'm trying to say, the damn thing is BIG, almost as big as a DSLR. This is something that you can not just slip in your pocket and run! I guess I would put up with the BIGness of the camera if the video was better (see below).2) Battery: some might like it, but I did not. Four \"AA\" batteries! I had to buy a rather expensive charger and rechargeable batteries. Come on, what's going on here! Now adays with all this new technology, Canon couldn't come up with a small battery that holds a decent charge! I know the Sony T500 has poor battery life, but at least the camera is small - you would expect that! Who wants to schlep around 4 extra \"AA\" batteries - not me! This one was my fault, I did not ever read about the batteries before I bought the camera, but like above, if the Video was better, I could look the other way.3) Video: This was pretty important to me (again check out the T500). What is up with only the small video format when EVERY other camera company is opting for new 16:9 widescreen format? Again, my old G7 takes just as good \"small\" video and I can play/edit it with anything! Actually, the video from the SX10 is not all that good, except the fact that you can zoom all the way in (actually that is pretty cool), but not worth keeping it. I was hoping that even though the SX10 was not widescreen 720/1080, it would take decent \"HD like\" video with the new .MOV video format. Why Canon did not bring the SX1 out first I'll never know; because then if the videos were good - I might have kept the Canon. As many other reviewers have mentioned, I just don't understand these companies or their marketing plan. If they need any help, all they have to do is ask a few geeks like me - I'll tell em' an ear full!So all in all, I'm keeping the Sony T500 - even if the pictures are not quite as sharp.

On sale, it was the same price as the Nostromo and I am a huge Razer fan and can't live without my Naga and Vespula. That said, I have always only used Logitech keyboards and headsets and I love them just as much. This truly was a difficult decision for me and I pored over the reviews of both for days.I'm so happy with the choice I made. I can't speak to the Nostromo as I haven't used one, but I can't imagine life being any better than it is with my G13 right now. Let me say straight out, this is not as valuable for non-MMO type games which require a ridiculous number of hotkeys to perform at your best. Games like Skyrim where you're basically just moving around with WASD and attacking with two buttons will not see the huge improvements that your MMOs will experience, but it's still a very nice upgrade in terms of comfort, especially for laptop users. The G13 will serve you well in any game that requires the keyboard because it allows your wrist and arm to be in a more natural position. I can completely relax my arm rather than have to try to hover over the keyboard for long gaming sessions. I have found that the G13 works amazingly well even when not on a flat surface. I regularly play in bed on my laptop and I usually rest the base of the G13 against my thigh so that it's at an angle to the bed (if that makes sense!) and this is surprisingly awesome. I have no loss in control over playing on a flat surface and my arm can be completely relaxed at my side the entire time. It's easily tied for the best accessory you can buy for your gaming laptop, equaled only byRazer Naga MMOG Laser Gaming Mouse. Paired with aRazer Vespula Dual-Sided Gaming Mouse Matyou will only have to touch your keyboard if you use text to chat. If you use voice chat over Ventrilo or Teamspeak, your keyboard will be collecting dust from lack of use. What I love about this setup is the ability to have both of my hands at my sides when I'm using my gaming laptop and I'm supremely comfortable. Mobile gaming is the future and I want to be able to take my games with me and be comfortable wherever I play while still being as effective as possible. The G13 is a huge part of what makes this possible.Now don't get me wrong, I also love my G13 with my desktop PC. The profiles are stored on the gameboard so I can easily move it from computer to computer with no issue. It works great on a desk being nicely weighted and with a good grip on the base. It doesn't slip or give without excessive force (and no one games THAT hard!). The design is also perfect. I was truly concerned because I have smaller hands and that is actually a big factor behind this purchase. With smaller hands, it's hard to reach across a keyboard to hit all those hotkeys. I read a lot of reviews claiming the G13 is not kind to small hands but I have not found that to be the case. With my palm resting comfortably on the designated rest, I can easily reach the top row of keys. The furthest on the left and right are a bit of a stretch for constant use but I find G1 in the upper left is perfect for TAB and targeting mobs. The one just below is nice for SPACE or jump. I use the top five center keys for 1-5 and the five directly below for 6-10. I have no trouble accessing any of them at any time and I adjusted to the new positions really quickly, faster than I learned to use my Razer Naga by far. I mapped the keys near the joystick to M and L for map and quest log. And of course, the joystick has completely replaced my WASD keys for movement. Moving with a joystick is so natural, especially for console gamers, even casual ones like myself. I have none of the issues others have mentioned about it hurting their thumbs or being hard to push. A very gentle push is all that's needed to continuously move forward. Diagonals are possible also. I tend to hold forward on the joystick and mouse steer because that's what I'm used to, but I find myself turning with the joystick more and more and it works great. Now my fingers are completely free to access my primary hotkeys rather than trying to contort my hand to reach WASD keys and hotkeys simultaneously. I have my secondary hotkeys assigned to my Razer Naga and I'm good to go with split second response time thanks to all keys being within my natural reach without straining.The best tip I can give new users who are having trouble accessing keys is to remap them manually for each game that you play. It really only takes a few minutes to do and once it's done, you don't have to worry about it again. By default, WoW's map is set up so that the center keys on the gameboard are assigned to WASD. This made no sense to me because I wanted to get away from using my fingers for movement and do it all with my thumb on the joystick. The key profiling software is very user friendly and easy to understand without ever looking at the manual. You just click the G key you want to change in the interface, and then press the key you want it to be. Easy. I remapped all my keys so that they would work for ME. I appreciate all the effort Logitech put into pre-designing key layouts for so many games, but ultimately what's going to work best for you is a layout you choose yourself. Pick keys that are easy to reach (which should be most of them, even for small hands) for your primary abilities and use the ones that are a bit of a stretch (if any) to lesser used functions, like map, bag and quest log. I've seen so many reviews where people complain that the keys aren't in the right place. Change them!My only regret is that I didn't buy one sooner. The G13 has changed my gaming for the better, and with kids, school and work, I want the most out of my game time, and now I have it. Thank you once again, Logitech!"}, {"qas": [{"question": "How is the software?", "id": "2608ebc621597812d89b1f89b02e2fc7", "answers": [{"text": "The software is terrible", "answer_start": 812}, {"text": "have to program the device every time you boot up", "answer_start": 855}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "So, a one star is pretty harsh.Especially considering that I still use the G13, and aside from the Nostromo (before Razer took it over), it's the best out there of its kind. Fortunately for Logitech there aren't many companies bothering to design these types of keypads.It's made well enough. No complaints regarding the build quality.The problems lay in the design.I don't know who designed the thumb stick, but if you don't replace it yourself (which requires taking the device apart, or gluing/sanding) it's just terrible as a AWSD input. Anyways, I would fire the designer of it. He clearly is not good. Even the five star reviews will tell you that.The LCD is a gimmick. I don't know what else to say about it. The only reason you'll probably use it is to swap profiles, which I'll mention in the next part.The software is terrible. Sometimes you'll have to program the device every time you boot up, because the file won't save correctly. Even worse is that it will sometimes revert back to an older setting, or lose a profile, months after you thought it finally was working.So, what does this all mean. Well, because the Nostromo is no longer as good as it once was, we're pretty much stuck with the G13. On the other hand, Logitech did a terrible job on it, considering the price point. It's basically a bunch of keys, a worthless LCD screen, a terrible joystick, and bad software to make it worse.Hopefully a competitor will go into this niche field and design something better. Logitech is obviously more interested in making it look fancy, than having it work well.***EDIT***Well, at the time of this editing \"0 of 7 people found this review helpful.\" It's possible that all of them work at Logitech; who knows. I've adjusted the review to now be 3 stars, mostly because I was probably a little overly harsh. The fact is, I still own and use my G13. It's not perfect, especially considering the price point for what is essentially a mini keyboard with a silly LCD and bad joystick, but it's still the best product in the niche field (once modified by the owner). That said, if Razer goes back to the quality of the original Nostromo produced by Belkin, then I will be switching brands."}]}, {"title": "B001P9EQH8", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "How does build quality work?", "id": "11588c7cc2b2aa413fb5027f909e4ccf", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "Up until a couple of weeks ago, I had never heard of a headphone amp. Well, I guess part of the reason is that I never owned a good pair of phones. I recently bought a pair ofSennheiser HD-595 Premier Headphone(here on Amazon), which are tight (see my review). The Senns have pretty high impedance (50 ohms), and my netbook and ipod don't have enough juice to power it. Therefore, the need for a headphone amp arose.One of the first HP amps that I came across was the FiiO F5. I had never heard of this brand. I think a reviewer mentioned that its Chinese. Anyhoo, The features that hooked me was its price, size(it's the same size as the iPod shuffle), and simplicity. Seeing a majority of positive reviews, I decided to go for it. I received it in 3 days from Head-Direct (which I would recommend since it was under $25 with shipping, and they use Amazon for payment).Upon first trial through my iPod, I was a little miffed because there was a high frequency \"noise\", is the best way I can describe it. But it went away when I played the music, and it never recurred. I played music with, and without the amp, and the difference is quite remarkable. With thew FiiO connected, aside from a big boost in volume, the depth is also enhanced. The bass boost is subtle, but noticable. I would recommend maxing out the volume on the amp and controlling the volume from the source, as the button is quite small and right next to the output plug.Other than the sound, the things I like about it is its size, internal rechargeable battery, on/off button, clip, and blue/red  light, which indicates when it is on/off or charging/charged. It also comes with a 6\" and 3' cord, and a USB to mini USB charging cable.The only things I can think of that I don't like is the fact that it charges through the computer, which means that, 1) you need access to a computer, and 2) the computer has to be on. I also find it a little disturbing that the instruction manual states that the battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, BUT the battery will eventually wear out and is irreplaceable. Hopefully, it will last 25 bucks worth of charges! Which brings me to question how long the charge will last. And since I just got it, I have yet to figure that out.

Once you add a touch of EQ in the right bands (not just boosting treble, but also reducing some of the problem bands) these headphones turn from $50 headthumpers into cans that will rival rigs three times the price.  See this review for a great guide to EQ-ing these: [...]  I applied approximately the same EQ levels to my PC soundcard and my Android device, and the results were dramatic to say the least - mids and highs shimmered, but the bass was strong, smooth and clear, with great articulation.Listening to \"Dear Prudence\" by The Beatles, when you apply the correct EQ settings, everything just *pops*.  You can actually make out individual voices in the harmonies and backing vocals, something my heretofore mediocre headphones never could manage.  Of course, if you want these to thump, thump they will, but I'd still recommend to EQ them, just pushing the bass frequencies up a bit.  Don't push everything to max, tho - play around with the values to see what matches your preference.Overall, best set of headphones I've owned, and I'd definitely recommend them to anyone who wants to spend less than $50 on phones."}]}, {"title": "B001S2PPT0", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "What lenses are beautiful?", "id": "0a4b6039c98f05b217e2da31084536e8", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "Just received this lens...I really like it.

Throw it in your pocket and go.  But when you need a good screwdriver to remove a stubborn screw, or you need to chop down a tree, or remove the engine from a '67 Mustang, that pocket knife isn't the best choice.

It's simple, it's basic, and it's a joy to use.And that's the simple elegance to using a prime lens.Lenses like this and the 50mm f1.8 are small and light.  They barely add anything to the weight and bulk of just the camera body itself, especially if it's a higher-level Nikkor DSLR (D90, D300s).  It's just effortless.  Compared to some of the heavier zooms (16-85, 18-105, 18-200), it'll make your camera feel weightless.  Fantastic for all-day wandering-around photography, assuming you don't need serious wide-angle or serious telephoto.However, this lens is a 'gateway drug'.  It and the 50mm f1.8 both fall into this category.  The low price and amazing IQ hooks you.  ;-)  Use it for a while, and you'll begin to want *all* of your glass to be fast f2.8 (or better), rather than the slow 'consumer' level variable aperture lenses.

Living in Wisconsin, I am a die-hard Packers fan, and being a nursing student, cable is just too expensive for me. I started researching this antenna out of desperation because the antenna tower setup at my rental house is very outdated, and the cable connecting the antennas that are at the top of the 60ft tower is so thin, it looses an immense amount of signal. Anyway, I live about 36 miles from the Milwaukee towers, and about 50 from the Chicago towers. I already had the Antennacraft HBU33, which is an absolutely PHENOMENAL antenna if you are more then 40 miles from a tower (I have never used it for signals more the 50 miles away, so keep that in mind). This antenna (ANT751R, and make sure the \"R\" is at the end of the model number, as the model with the \"R\" is optimized for digital signal, as opposed to the older model which was more for analog signal) is designed for signals within the 40 mile range. I used my old antenna for Chicago stations, and bought this antenna for the Milwaukee stations. The setup works very well so far. I use both antennas with a signal combiner (a splitter that works both ways) and a RCA TVPRAMP1R for a pre-amp, and the picture so far is awesome. This antenna is so small, it seems like it would be ineffective, but WOW, its works like a champ! I will warn you that it does not pick up the lower VHF stations very well (2-6), so I had to modify it with coathangers to pick up those stations (Fox is channel 6 here, which a majority of Packer games are on). I did have to change the location of the antenna after not getting good reception on fox, even with adjustments with coathangers, to a higher place with fewer obstructions (the original place was clamped to the antenna tower as high as I could reach (which was about 10 ft up with a ladder), and was obstructed by the house next door, so your antenna may not have the low VHF issue, but I am not willing to take off my coathanger modification to find out if it works without it (if it ain't broke, don't fix it) in the new location. It is now on the roof of my porch, which is about 20 feet in the air. I also installed this antenna in the attic of my friend's 1 story house who is about 15 miles form the Milwaukee tower, and he reports perfect reception even without any sort of amp. Keep in mind that he was using a radio shack amplified set-top antenna before with a 15-20db amp built in, and on windy days, the reception would be choppy at best. He checked the reception on the day that the winds from hurricane Sandy were really bad in his area, and reported the signal was completely solid, so there you go. When installing this antenna, I would HIGHLY recommend using quad-shielded type f coax cable, to minimize signal loss. I would recommend purchasing the cable from monoprice, they were the lowest price when I installed my friend's antenna. Also, be careful with amplifiers, they can actually destroy your signal if your signal is already strong, so just keep that in mind. If you are at the very edge of the reception zone for this antenna, and your antenna is in a low place, or in your attic, then you may want to look into a pre-amp, otherwise, don't even bother.So to recap: This is a fantastic antenna that may not pick up the low VHF stations very well. I made a long loop with a coathanger and used hose clamps to attach them to the end of the VHF elements to get better low VHF signal, but that's just a suggestion. If you are putting the antenna up high, you may not have anything to worry about it. USE QUAD-SHIELDED TYPE F CABLE FOR YOUR SETUP TO MAXIMIZE GAIN AND MINIMIZE SIGNAL LOSS."}]}, {"title": "B0025EWXEU", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "How do you like the lens?", "id": "62abb3cd9412115827eef7fcf75237bc", "answers": [{"text": "than you're used to compared to Nikon or Zeiss lenses", "answer_start": 215}, {"text": "I have read a lot of negative press about this lens", "answer_start": 0}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "I have read a lot of negative press about this lens, but I have to tell you I think this is one of the best manual focus lenses you can buy for a full-frame camera.On my Nikon D800 it rocks.

Last year I built my first P9X79 Deluxe system using the Cooler Master HAF 932 Advanced Full Tower and was very happy with its quiet fans. With a Nuactua NH-D14 CPU cooler. This thing is almost silent. Because I need all the processing power and memory I can get within a budget, I opted to build a second similar system to add as a render Farm box. I bought a base P9X79 with the exact same 3930K, 64GB memory, power supply, CPU cooler and SSD drives. Not needing all the bells a whistles from the deluxe board I also decided to get the midsized HEF 922. Having a quiet computer is very important to me and this is the reason I chose to stick with The HAF series. Once I got the new system assembled, I was very disappointed to hear the roar of fans from the fans in the 922. The noise levels from the fans stated on the website do not match those printed on the owners manual. (23dBA vs 19dBA) The HAF 922 is far louder then the 932. What ever Cooler master changed in terms of cooling fans, it is clearly not at the same quality of the 932. The noise level is not something I can live with every day so I had to decide weather to return the box at my own expense and time to disassemble, pack, ship and reassemble, or buy some new fans. In order to get a similar low noise level enjoyed by the 932, I have to replace all three of the factory fans and add an optional 200 mm fan to the side. I understand there is a fine line between the open air design of the HEF for cooling and vs noise level but the HAF 932 design is almost the same as the 922 and vary quiet if all other components are low noise. Cooler Master claims the same quality in a mid size tower. All said and done, I should have bought another HAF 923 and save myself the time and dissatisfaction with Cooler Master.

It's still a very good, top end smooth mouse even with out using every possible bell and whistle.  I use a laptop a great deal and this is the first time I've really bothered to like a mouse enough to bring on a hotel trip.BATTERY:  I understand it has an extremely high quality or state-of-the-art brand of AA rechargeable battery.  In a pinch you can use any AA battery though.  I don't know how often it needs to be recharged - probably not more than every couple weeks.  It gives you a \"low battery\" warning - a little PC popup - which supposedly comes on intermittently for nine days as its charge gets low, suggesting the full life must be a few weeks if the last phase of low-charge, is nine days.  (Logitech experts note the prior Revolution mouse had a built in battery, which I assume would eventually get tired.)RECHARGING:  Recharging is trivial as you just plug the supplied, or any, microUSB cable into the front.  If you use a thin microUSB cable, even if you are computing during the charging phase, it is no more inconvenience than any good corded mouse.  It gives three nice progressive (rolling) green lights on the side as it charges, progress-bar style.  As far as I can tell there is no need to use the \"off\" button (I think it sleeps when not touched rather than running its battery down) but the instructions aren't clear.WIRELESS.  It works with a very tiny wireless dongle.  It doesn't come with much documentation but it stores a Mouse App in the system tray (lower right corner in Windows) which has a lot of information.  Supposedly, if you get into the Mouse App, there is a \"star\" symbol tab option which gets you into the \"Unifying Wireless\" app.  In the Mouse App, click \"star\" tab at left then click \"Open Unifying Software\" and it gives you instructions to connect with other Logitech devices (typically by turning them On and Off in the proper Unifying Software mode.)"}, {"qas": [{"question": "Do this computer comes with mouse?", "id": "c79e6dfba1545d98f20ef281c0de5c1f", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "This seemed like a great mouse from everything I read but in the end it hurt my hand.

I was worried that I would have trouble using one with Ubuntu and have to return it, so I went to Staples, and the Performance MX is what they had.  On getting it home, I plugged in the wireless receiver to one of my laptop USB ports, turned on the mouse, and it worked immediately and has been working ever since.  No software installation necessary (although the \"zoom\" button doesn't work on my laptop--I probably need to install the software for that, or it might just be Ubuntu).I read some of the negative reviews of the Performance MX after purchasing it, and I can't say I have noticed any of the problems:the mouse is comfortable (although it could have been even bigger for my hands);the scrolling wheel works fine;the wireless connection works fine and does not cut out;the battery has not had to be recharged yet after 1 week;the Darkfield tech works great on my desk.While I am happy with it, it is not ideal:(1) The general construction feels sturdy, but the buttons feel like they might not last--especially the scroll wheel and the button that toggles the scroll wheel between smooth and \"ratcheting\" scrolling.  I find myself constantly babying the scroll wheel (which I use a lot--with my last mouse, my natural hand position at rest was with my index finger resting on the scroll wheel, but here I am conscious of trying not to touch it when not using it because it feels flimsy).  This doesn't mean it is actually flimsy or needs to be babied, it's just a psychological design thing, but that's important.(2) I paid $90+ for it, which makes me feel like somewhat of a sucker.

I work on a Mac and I was looking for a great mouse, Sadly this mouse is barely functional  on Adobe CS4 products if you are using new hardware and new software. For the folks working on older equipment I can't speak for them. The mouse software locks up my Adobe software mostly Lightroom and Photoshop, who do I bill for down time, my customer or Logitech, looks like my customers and I lose here. However InDesign does not seem to suffer. Apple Safari does not work if you want use the scroll wheel but it's still mostly functional. General use is very unpredictable, you will need to adjust to the mouse rather than making adjustments to suit your needs.A few positive remarks: The build quality is top notch and the mouse is more comfortable than anything else I've used for important tasks. A very nice feature is it uses a AA battery so you can toss a freshly recharged battery while you recharge the one that you used up. I typically get about 4 weeks per charge working 7 days a week.Save your money and wait for an update in a few years.

Suddenly the high speed connection gets lost on my iPhone and iPad, and sometimes both connections disappear (My new TWC modem also has WiFi built in, so sometimes I notice that my wireless devices are connected to that instead of the router).

The problems that you are experiencing may be due to a recent upgrade of the Apple iOS 6.  While the nature and extent of the iOS 6 and Wi-Fi connectivity issues are unknown, NETGEAR will do our best to continue to monitor the updates from Apple and continue to work with our customers to ensure that we can help provide support and work-arounds (when possible) to get your devices connect properly.In the mean time, please check out the following websites and forums discussions for additional updates and information regarding this Wi-Fi issues between your Apple iOS 6 devices and NETGEAR wireless devices:\"It's nice to know that I'm not going crazy, because I kept restarting the router to try and fix the problem, but it doesn't seem like they are too concerned with the issue.  The upgrade was a number of months ago; if they cared about the customers I would think they would work with Apple to address the issue and not just \"monitor\" the situation.  The connection seems quite good with other items I have that use a wireless connection (Roku, Sony bluray player) and the wired connection seems solid as well, but considering that I use my iPhone and iPad constantly for work it's a bit of a deal breaker.  If Netgear doesn't fix the situation, I'm upgrading to the Western Digital router which seems pretty awesome (they were at NYCC and the sales pitch was pretty good).  If you don't have any Apple devices (or are using an older iOS), then this is a good choice for you.

Even though I can only get data from my broadband router just so fast, the router seems to be effortlessly routing everything in my network without any slowdowns.  Unfortunately, I didn't get any range improvement in one area of my house and my main laptop is still around -60db (and about 1 MB/s)  I was hoping to get a little more but the faster router processor seems to keep the data flowing very steadily.

If I got further than 30 feet from the router and had any obstructions, the signal was just about useless.  I was -90db at 40 feet thru one wall and the ROKU XR failed to hook up.  I eventually just turned the 5ghz radio off on the router.One other thing I like is a guest network feature.  I can turn on a generic guest network when we have visitors and let them get on the internet.  I still have all encryption methods available.Overall, very solid router, I am happy and this router will probably last me a long time.

First off, you will notice that this review is \"Amazon Verified\" - yes, I purchased the Zune from Amazon and waited a couple of weeks to actually USE the product before submitting a review of it unlike some of the others here.  Enjoy....Packaging:The Zune comes in a nice small black box that slides open to reveal the contents which are the Zune HD, headphones, USB cable and some paperwork.  It's very stylish and nice.  Not much else to say as the box has been tucked away ever since opening.The look and feel:Ever since the first time I saw pictures on the net of the Zune HD I have wanted one.  Being a previous owner of a couple of different MP3 players the Zune was a must have just for the looks alone.  It really has nice lines and the color is just right; black and silver.  I hate this new term \"sexy\" and cringe when I hear a guy say it about an electronic device.  It does describe the Zune but I won't call it that.  The weight is very nice and it feels good in your hand.  I love the modern look and if they ever turned this device into a phone I would by one in a heartbeat!  I sometimes hold it to my ear and think, \"WoW what a cool phone this would be.\"  The Zune logo on the back and a simple \"ZUNE\" on the front - very elegant.  On top is a power on button, the left side a volume rocker and the home button on the front.  The bottom is where you plug in your headphones and next to that is where the docking connector/USB cable plugs in.  It's the kind of device that has looks that will never get old and you want to just keep staring at it.  Very pleasing to have something you want everyone to see.The screen:OLED - it's the big talk these days.  I have a few pictures on my device right now and I have to say they look great.  The blacks are true blacks because the device shuts down the pixels where there should be black so you see true blacks and vibrant colors.  Outside I agree with most folks about the glare.  I have the brightness turned all the way up and it looks nice inside but outside the glare on the glass makes it as if you want to look at the reflection then back to what's on the screen.  I don't see this as a problem as I can't imagine any other electronic device no matter what it is not having this same problem.  For me, I can still see what is on the screen and have no problem with it.  It is just the right size at 3.3 inches.UI interface:Although inside the box there was no manual you would really have to be pretty stupid if you couldn't figure out how to navigate on this device.  Also, on the Zune web page is everything you need to know about how to work this device - who needs paper these days anyway???  The transitions from screen to screen are so fluid, smooth and animated.  The touch only needs to be light and it works flawlessly.  After using the device for a few minutes you get the idea of how to navigate.  You start off with a list of items to choose from on the main menu; pictures, music, apps, ect, etc.  As you click one you dive into that section and dive even deeper as you work what ever you have chosen clicking/touching away.  At all times the home button on the front will take you back to the main menu.  The accelerator zips from landscape to portrait very fast and smooth.  I really like that and feel the tegra chip inside is working for me without strain when I see this - video especially.  Multi touch works well and tapping is fine too especially on the web browser.  Everything is laid out nicely and there is no confusion about how to find something.  This is a plus for first timers and experienced users alike.Zune software: (APPS & Marketplace)This is a free download and helps you manage the Zune contents and updates.  The software mimics some of the icons on the Zune so you quickly identify the UI and what you need to click.  Syncing is a breeze and Zune will let you customize what content you want on the device and what you want Zune to do with it.  I have all of my MP3's in my music folder on my computer and it grabbed all of them when I plugged in for the first time with no problems.  There are some complaits about the software and how it takes forever to download - not true.  There are not a lot of apps right now.  I hope this blossoms as the months go by.  I have downloaded all of them so far as they are free but would gladly pay for any others if they should come about and would be useful.  The weather app is nice and lets you add as many cities as you want and shows you not only current conditions but a five day forecast as well.  The calculator well is a calculator.  The games have been just OK - I feel they do not utilize the Tegra chip but in the future I am sure the games will utilize the chip as it would be a waste if they didn't.  There is a chess game, Texas hold em, space ship shooter, a Bejeweled like game, soduku, and some game where you try to figure out where an item is hidden after mixing up three robots.  All are fun for a short while but I wait for more advanced cool games.  Also the games have ads just before they start - we are talking about 5 seconds of a video clip.  For a free download I think they have every right to put this here.  Also, FOUR to FIVE SECONDS is what we are talking about.  Is it that much time???  Patience!!!!  The marketplace is just something you need to experience.  Music, Videos, Podcasts and more.... EVERYTHING is here for you to choose from.  There is an option for a Zune pass and for $14.99 a month you can go nuts with this and download as much media as yo want - you get to keep 10 songs a month too.  This alone is worth buying the Zune HD.  There is so much content at the market place that I can't really explain.  Imagine walking into a store that has no one in it but you and the inventory consists of basically every kind of music you can think of as well as tons of other types of media just for you alone to walk up and down the isle to choose from.  I just hope for more apps in the future and (I know) this thing just came out so while I wait for apps I will enjoy my Zune....Docking station:I went with the basic Zune HD sync doc ($49) and lucked out with it.  There is an A/V dock you can purchase too($89).  I will tell you the only difference between the two is 1) the price and 2) the A/V doc comes with the HDMI and optical cables.  So if you already have these cables, which most of us do, save $40+ dollars and get the regular sync doc.  I have a review on the doc here on Amazon (where I purchased it) so check that out.  It is nice to just plug it in and sync and charge.  Also I can hook it up to a TV if I wanted or a receiver and utilize the Zune to transfer music and video to my home entertainment center.  The doc compliments the Zune and is very stylish looking and most importantly - Functional.Battery life:The OLED must be doing what it is supposed to do - save power.  I take the train every day to work from Milford, CT to Greenwich, CT and I can go about a week without charging using the Zune about an hour or so a day.  Wonderful! The only thing I have noticed is the back gets warm when in use.  Very strange.  I have been impressed with the battery and hope it stays that way.Screen protectors:I never had one before and at the time I received my Zune there was only Ghost Armor available.  I got one screen protector and had no problem putting it on but being a noob I didn't spray my fingers and my finger print was stuck on the adhesive side.  So I took it off.  Ghost armor was very nice and sent me a replacement but instead of just the screen protector they sent the full body armor - how nice of them!  This time around I was very careful and it went on with no problems BUT....I noticed the screen protector was about an eighth of an inch too short on top.  It was enough to bother me so I took it off.  (I know you are thinking I am nuts)  So I looked and found BodyGarudz on the net.  Not only do they sell TWO screen protectors for the price of ONE but it also fit perfectly.  I used the squeegee and applicator solution from Ghost to put the BodyGaurdz shield on - why?  Because BodyGaurdz's applicator solution wasn't as good as Ghosts and Ghost's squeegee was much better than BodyGaurdz.  So my insane suggestion - go with BodyGaurdz for the screen protector.  One other thing - the Ghost armor seems thicker - I can feel the sharp edges of the plastic now on the Zune because it has full body protection.  I hope they come out with some cool cases so I can rip this stuff off and throw more cash down the drain...!  The BodyGaurdz screen protector is thinner and looks great.Internet: (WiFi)The browser works well on the Zune HD.  I connected to my home network in seconds and at work it's even quicker.  You can tap and multi-touch to zoom in and move the pages around.  The keyboard is OK and can be used in landscape or portrait mode.  You can store pages in favorites and check AOL mail and what not.  It uses Bing to find what you are searching for.  I use it mostly for mail as at work the computers are restricted but WiFi is open.  You can sync via WiFi and download too which is very nice.Music (Sound):There is an internal equalizer with different settings depending on what type of music you are listening too.  It works OK - the music sounds fine to me.  I didn't use the supplied headphones as I have a pair of Sony Ear buds and they work better for my ears.  The music sounds great and the interface is cool - volume can be operated via the rocker on the side or touch screen.  Filtering music, making playlists and and just listening is a pleasure - this is what I got the device for - MUSIC - so everything else is just an added bonus to me.  I haven't bothered with the HD Radio much but it is cool to have. Remember...added bonus....Conclusion:I just love this Zune HD.  It really is functional for what I need it to do and the style, look and feel are just so right.  I hope this review helps you in your decision.  I will continue to update this review in the future so check back and best of luck to you and take care! ANSWERNOTFOUND", "answer_start": 167}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "Ha, with a title like that I got your attention didn't I?  This is a review of the 16GB Zune HD.  You will not see a comparison or mention of any Apple product here.  I am a 39 year old male and this review is for the Zune HD and what it is like to OWN one so that others may decide if they want one.  First off, you will notice that this review is \"Amazon Verified\" - yes, I purchased the Zune from Amazon and waited a couple of weeks to actually USE the product before submitting a review of it unlike some of the others here.  Enjoy....Packaging:The Zune comes in a nice small black box that slides open to reveal the contents which are the Zune HD, headphones, USB cable and some paperwork.  It's very stylish and nice.  Not much else to say as the box has been tucked away ever since opening.The look and feel:Ever since the first time I saw pictures on the net of the Zune HD I have wanted one.  Being a previous owner of a couple of different MP3 players the Zune was a must have just for the looks alone.  It really has nice lines and the color is just right; black and silver.  I hate this new term \"sexy\" and cringe when I hear a guy say it about an electronic device.  It does describe the Zune but I won't call it that.  The weight is very nice and it feels good in your hand.  I love the modern look and if they ever turned this device into a phone I would by one in a heartbeat!  I sometimes hold it to my ear and think, \"WoW what a cool phone this would be.\"  The Zune logo on the back and a simple \"ZUNE\" on the front - very elegant.  On top is a power on button, the left side a volume rocker and the home button on the front.  The bottom is where you plug in your headphones and next to that is where the docking connector/USB cable plugs in.  It's the kind of device that has looks that will never get old and you want to just keep staring at it.  Very pleasing to have something you want everyone to see.The screen:OLED - it's the big talk these days.  I have a few pictures on my device right now and I have to say they look great.  The blacks are true blacks because the device shuts down the pixels where there should be black so you see true blacks and vibrant colors.  Outside I agree with most folks about the glare.  I have the brightness turned all the way up and it looks nice inside but outside the glare on the glass makes it as if you want to look at the reflection then back to what's on the screen.  I don't see this as a problem as I can't imagine any other electronic device no matter what it is not having this same problem.  For me, I can still see what is on the screen and have no problem with it.  It is just the right size at 3.3 inches.UI interface:Although inside the box there was no manual you would really have to be pretty stupid if you couldn't figure out how to navigate on this device.

The lack of camera and built-in  speakers was disappointing, but the cool features and unique navigation really shined. The complete lack of apps in the app store was quite disturbing, only 50 or so apps, most of them pretty bland.Compared to the ipod, the Zune Hd has EXTREMELY fast start up times (5 to 8 seconds usually) , the battery is amazing and it hardly ever crashes.While the Zune Hd may be lacking some features,they are not deal breaking features, I still have to give the Zune 5 out of 5 stars.

But man, does this come close!  I have never been so happy with a camera -- and I've owned quite a few.Right off the bat, the sensor size is larger than on your average P&S; (point and shoot) camera, but the resolution isn't any higher.  This allows the camera to take MUCH better pictures in low light.  And you will be amazed at how good this camera is in low light!  Short of a DSLR camera, it has no equal.In addition, this camera is built for the serious enthusiast.  Full manual controls make it almost like having a DSLR in your pocket!  And there is a control dial plus a control ring -- making it much easier to control your settings.  Plus, a fast lens and the ability to shoot in RAW ... no wonder so many photographers consider this the best pocket camera available.  And yet, you can keep it in Auto mode and treat it like any other point & shoot.Oh, and the LCD is truly beautiful!The main thing that keeps it from being \"perfect\" in my estimation is the limited zoom: less than 4X.  I need much more zoom.  But I'd give it all up for this camera!  And, if you want to use the camera as a camcorder, the standard definition video mode is a bit disappointing.  Why not high-def, Canon?The main problems with the camera are pretty minor.  The control dial on the back is very loose and you have to be careful not to accidentally change your settings.  It's also a shame that you can't independently set the control dial and control ring for whatever you want: instead, you have to choose among a number of pre-sets.  It's a little disappointing.  And, if you are very serious, it's worth noting the serious barrel distortion in RAW; but the camera takes care of that in processing JPEGs, so most will never know.Some people complain about the build quality.  Trust me, it's perfectly fine.  It's light, which can be misleading.  But there's nothing wrong with the build quality.  Perhaps they expect more for $400.  I guess I can understand that.  But I'm perfectly comfortable with the build quality.The competition for this camera are the Panasonic LX3, the Fujifilm F200EXR, and maybe the Sony WX1 or TX1.  The Sonys are good low-light cameras, but have no manual controls.  The LX3 and the F200EXR are more serious cameras, but they are no better than the S90 and much more difficult to use.  The S90 seems to get things right right out of the box more often than these others ... from all that I have heard, anyway.  I don't have any of these cameras.  But don't discount ease of use when you consider the competition.I give this camera the highest recommendation possible, even if it's not quite perfect!"}]}, {"title": "B002MAPRYU", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "How is the camera lens is one of worse?", "id": "eba5c96d169d29022dc9f42b743f4f5e", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "I bought this after losing my Sansa Fuze player a while back.

The storage capacity is pretty decent, though don't expect to store 10,000 songs.  However, the ability to add a micro SD card is pretty awesome.  The only issue that I've run into is that on my bicycle commute sometimes the player gets bumped and some functions are selected that I did not intend on.

My laptop's rubber stops on the bottom keep it anchored pretty well, and the fan itself isn't super loud. There is an adjustable dial to change fan speed, but when I'm gaming, I generally just have it on max, and when I'm not gaming, I turn the cooling pad off altogether.The one thing I would make sure you do is use the little legs on the bottom of the cooling pad to prop it up an extra half inch or so. It makes a world of difference in how much more air can flow through under the pad and up to your laptop. Also, beware of using this on top of a table cloth - it seems to impede air flow as well. With the legs propping up the cooling pad, my GPU temps only hit about 84-86 degrees, but without it propped up, my GPU is still 90-91 degrees.Overall, it's a small ~$20 investment to potentially increase the life of my laptop as a whole."}]}, {"title": "B002NEGTTW", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "How is it picture ?", "id": "aa6fb93883652de3ba445034d538cf2b", "answers": [{"text": "The image quality was good on this camera but the speed was lacking", "answer_start": 130}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "I have been shooting motorcycle track photography for about 3 years now.  The fist year I shot with a Canon Rebel T2i (AKA 550D)  The image quality was good on this camera but the speed was lacking.What I didn't realize until I got the 7D was how much the speed was lacking.  The T2i is a great camera in it's own right and for consumers it's very good.  When I bought it I thought, hey it has virtually the same sensor as the 7D this should be good enough.Well, I had no idea how much difference the 19 cross type AF points would make, or how much faster 8 FPS was.  My keeper rate went up immediately.  Now, I realize there are other features I could mention, like the  7D is able to control off camera flashes without the use of a 500 series flash,  but really the reason to buy this camera is speed.  This is Canon's best crop frame sensor camera body, hands down, nothing else comes close.  For my purposes the cropped sensor is an advantage as it multiplies my effective focal length by 1.6 and ISO performance is not terribly important as I'm shooting in daylight.  But, I've spoken with many other photogs that have the 5D mk2 and mk3 and when they shoot outdoor sports they still use their 7D, it's AF system is just faster, as is it's frame rate and the added low light capability of the 5D is moot at 2pm outside.  Further, I shoot this camera with the double battery Canon vertical grip.  It makes for a big camera.  This fits my hand very well and the whole system feels very rugged and sturdy.  Much more so than the plastic bodied rebel.  If you are to read my other reviews you may be sensing a theme here.  Value.  This body is no exception.It's expensive for the novice and relatively inexpensive relative to other pro bodies but it defintely earns it's xD (single digit D) Canon designation.  It is a true pro body and at $1700 it's still a great deal, just look at how much you have to spend to get a 6D, 5D, or god forbid a 1D, and the 1D series are the first bodies to start to compare in terms of AF performance as the other cameras are more wedding cameras.  For the money, you can't beat the Al Servo performance of this camera.  Of course if money was no object I'd have a 1Dx and all the big boy primes but for me money matters and for my money this camera delivers pro quality.  I'm only excited now to see what the 7D mk2 looks like when Canon decides to best this legendary Camera body."}]}, {"title": "B002QEBMAK", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "What is the year of this one?", "id": "5b2fe5102e279d980c5ac7e147be7d2f", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "I've had a few of these for a while and I have never had any problems.

The camera has a nice metal case and attractive appearance.  It is nice and heavy (doesn't feel light and cheap like the Creative).  Included in the box is the camera, a nice felt bag, a nicer-than-necessary quality wrist strap that is detachable, and Quickstart guide.  The power button isn't marked, but I figured out it is the button on the side.  The controls are simple and intuitive.USABILITYIt is obviously designed to be very, very simple.  No fancy features, no detailed customization, not even a picture mode.  Video at 720p PERIOD.  (Flip website: 16:9 widescreen, HD 720p (1280 x 720) at 30 frames per seconds (fps) progressive scan; recorded as MP4 files)  This is what they designed it to do, so it makes sense.  The Creative adds a picture mode, but still has a similar arrangement of buttons, so it is not as easy to get it to do what you want.  With the Flip, the buttons are +/-, left/right, play/trash, record and power.  The +/- and left/right buttons are touch sensitive areas, not buttons, so it is difficult to use them without looking at them.  However, they are backlit, and the buttons that apply for the mode you are in are lit and the ones with no function are dark, which is very nice.VIDEO QUALITYThe video quality is good, although there is a certain expectation that it is not the same quality picture are a larger HD camera could give you, like theSanyo VPC-FH1 HD 1080p Flash Memory Camcorder w/ 16x advance zoom (Black).  After all, the lens can be measured in millimeters.  It certainly exceeds the quality of my iPhone 3GS video, which is much lower in resolution (watch out for iPhone 4!, Flip).  This would certainly be good for Youtube or Facebook sharing of up-close things, but not good at all for anything very far away (tiny lens = no zooming).EASE OF TRANSFERRING/WATCHINGI love how Flip, et al, have made transferring so easy.  Hopefully the days of proprietary connectors and dozens of special cables will soon be behind us.  You just pull the switch to allow the USB connector to pop out the top and hook it up!  It is not bendable, so it is not going to be practical for many users, so you'll need a USB extension cable (can be purchased for cheap online).  Creative does a nice job with a flexible connector, by the way.  I didn't try the video software, but copying the video onto the computer is as simple as copy and paste or just a drag.Hooking it up to your HDTV via mini-HDMI to HDMI cable is a great feature, also, that is great for showing friends or family.Overall, this is a very sturdy, simple device designed for one purpose; and it does it well.  Just don't expect to take it to your next graduation, high school musical or wedding if you're not upfront.Longer-term, I think this category of digital video recorders cannot withstand the onslaught of phones that will be able to do the same thing.[UPDATE 4/12/11] It was announced today that Cisco is killing the Flip business; I guess I predicted correctly."}, {"qas": [{"question": "How is the picture quality?", "id": "3ce3e41d828d818e49418adeaaaaae8e", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "The Flip MinoHD is the kind of camera you either love or hate. If you're a videophile and analyze specs and features then this camera isn't for you. Using the Flip MinoHD reminded me of why I was skeptical about buying an iPhone when Apple first launched it and why I ultimately bought one and why I feel the iPhone is a fantastic device despite all of it's limitations. Now on to the Flip...There's not much in the box (camera, soft case, strap), the battery can't be changed, and the memory can't be expanded. There's no CD included (the software is on the device) and no cables are included (or needed for most users). There are almost no settings to play with: set the date, time, beeps on/off, recording light on/off and you're ready to go. The ergonomics are ok. It's tough to make a small device easy to hold and use and the display is small but that's to be expected of such a tiny package.For many products this kind of simplicity would suggest that the manufacturer tried to cut costs (e.g. Apple not including an AC Adapter with iPods). In the case of the Flip the message I heard was clearly different: you don't need any of these things. Since there's not much fiddling to do with settings you're left with actually using it!I tried it outdoors and indoors and took videos of the kids and of scenery. It perform wells in all lighting conditions including low light. Based on on my experience low light is the weak point for the HD Video Mode in my Panasonic P&S; as well as in the mini-DV HD Cameras that I own. The Flip outperforms them all. The audio isn't bad at all and the picture quality is better than anything I've seen in a P&S; and is very comparable to what I get with my Canon mini-DV HD Camera.Overall it's easy to pocket and a pleasure to use for making small video clips."}]}, {"title": "B002RM08RE", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "Which there a wireless  capability?", "id": "b7235d940f8e80dd6b51be8980804105", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "REVISED REVIEW 6/9/2011Originally the product didn't perform adequately. However, upon configuring it properly, I managed to get a better DL speed and a somewhat improved UL speed as well. Also, I recently tested it on two other Wi-Fi networks. There was improvement in the internet access speeds in both cases. In one of networks the improvement was significantly higher, exceeding my initial expectations.The product took a while to install, partly because it was counter-intuitive, and partly because it didn't have proper help on the GUI. Eventually I figured it out and it started working alright.As I don't use Win 7, I cannot rate its compatibility with this OS.The range is alright, meeting my expectations. Strangely, if it's a few feet away from the router, the signal is just \"Good\" or \"Very good\" at times, although it should be \"Excellent\" at all times (after all, it's in close proximity and without any physical objects in between). However, it sometimes is \"Excellent\" despite the distance or physical obstacles being in between the adapter and the router.The USB extension cord accessory is a plus, since it allows you to relocate the adapter to optimize its performance. It didn't improve things much in my case though. Still, it's a useful thing to have, particularly if you are using it with a desktop computer, or with a laptop at home.Bottom line: this product is definitely an improvement but not so easy to get it working as it might seem. It's definitely worth the twenty bucks though and, just like the Medialink router, it is a very reliable and handy piece of technology."}]}, {"title": "B002SGATH8", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "Is usb port working?", "id": "064abb442be3957fccd7193c0e19be2f", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "Bought this cooling pad/stand to use with a laptop on a desk and it's ideal.

The design is almost as the same, just the power switch and the mode dial exchanged their places. One significant addition - a GPS mark on the top, right above the lens. The blue color is not that dark as on TZ5 and not so striking bright as on ZR1. A slight dent on the back with some prominence on the right side makes a very convenient grip to operate with one hand. A metal body looks pretty solid, however it is not that heavy.PERFORMANCE: The new camera has a pretty good performance: the startup time is a little bit more than 1 sec and with almost zero shutter lag. Taking into account a new very quick \"Sonic Speed\" auto focus, which takes about 0.35-0.4 sec, you will be able to catch virtually every spur-of-the-moment photo. And a dedicated movie button allows starting video recording at any time without any preparation.LENS: Leica lens is just excellent: unusually big for a so small body 12x zoom starting with the very convenient for indoors shooting 25mm up to telephoto 300mm (equiv.) plus a quick and precise auto focus (however might be somewhat slower in low-light), and good optical image stabilization in conjunction with the digital one which allows you to take sharp pictures in the entire zoom range and at the very low shutter speed around 1/8 and even 1/4. The auto-focusing and optical image stabilization work in absolute silence, and the only zooming produces some soft \"sh-sh-sh\" noise. Good news - without any start/stop clicks on the footage :).DISPLAY: A large 3-inch high-resolution LCD monitor with 460K pixels has a very good contrast and saturation - the pictures look very \"juicy\". The brightness also is high enough to be seen even in a direct sun-light (just a bit darker) and in a wide angle of view. All that allows to share photos and videos immediately with other people.MENU: For those who used the Panasonic P&S; cameras before the ZS7 menu looks very familiar, just some new items added. Also there is a Quick-Menu button which is very helpful for a quick access to the most frequently used settings. The new camera has such a luxury as the Aperture, Shutter speed, and Manual modes and there is a new Exposure button (next to the video one) which allows to set manually the aperture using the Left-Right buttons and the shutter speed with Up-Down buttons.AUTO SETTINGS: The best in the industry Panasonic's Intelligent Auto mode is getting better with each new model. Actually it's a whole bunch of sophisticated algorithms which help to take really nice pictures with minimum efforts. They are worth to be aware about so here is a brief list of most effective of them.\"Intelligent Scene Selector\" - It quickly analyzes the light conditions as well as focusing results and selects either portrait, scenery, macro, night portrait or night scenery. It also displays a small icon of the chosen scene in the top left corner. The feature is extremely helpful when you need to shoot very fast on spur-of-the-moment.\"Intelligent ISO\" - If camera detects that your subject is moving, it raises ISO and shutter speed to take shots without motion blur, otherwise it will try to keep the lowest possible ISO to reduce noise and to get nice clear pictures.\"Intelligent Exposure\" - it's a kind of a small brother of the High Dynamic Range feature. If the camera sets the correct overall exposure but some areas happen to be too dark, this feature automatically increases the brightness of the dark areas to make the entire picture to look more balanced. It also pretty effective for the backlight conditions - instead of getting just a silhouette of your subject against the bright sky it makes the subject normally exposed but without washing out the nice blue sky.\"Face Detection\" - is another great thing for taking good-quality pictures of people. It happened to me a number of times in the past that a presence in the frame of a more contrast element somewhere behind the person I'm taking picture of was making the camera to adjust focus at that unimportant distant object and therefore made the major person out-of-focus. The same way if there is a bright background behind the person then the camera will measure the luminance of that background while the person's image will be pretty much underexposed (dark). The Face Detection feature identifies the human faces and tells the camera to adjust focus and exposure for the faces first so the people on the picture will be looking well exposed, clear and sharp.ADVANCED FEATURES: I guess the most interesting and advanced is a new \"Intelligent Resolution\" feature. Actually it combines a sophisticated noise reduction with a new picture enhancement algorithm. This feature automatically identifies the 3 type of the picture areas: outlines, detailed textures, and smooth gradation panes and provides an optimized handling for each of them separately. As a result the photo looks sharper at the edges and more clean in between. Many old P&S; cameras had pretty fast picture quality degradation at the ISO around 300-400 and higher. The shots taken by ZS7 even at ISO 400 look pretty good on the small and even medium-size prints.IMAGE QUALITY: Imagine on a sunny day you take an outdoors picture of a wall made of the new brown bricks with a $3000 DSLR and a small P&S; camera from the distance about 6-8 feet. How could you recognize by which camera was taken a certain shot? The subject is plain so no Depth-of-Field is involved into comparison. However in this example the two characteristics will help to distinct the cameras: 1) The edges of bricks will be well outlined on DSLR shots and a kind of fuzzy on the P&S; ones; 2) The new bricks do not have any structure on their sides, they are just plane and so exactly that way they will look on the DSLR shots, while on the P&S; ones their sides will show more or less amount of noise. If you perform the same test for an evenly cut line of bushes (again DOF is not involved) you will see the same result plus the internal structure of each leaf will be more clear on the DSLR photos. So to make pictures taken with your P&S; camera looking like the DSLR ones the P&S; camera should make the outlines sharper, clean the noise on the plane or soft gradation areas, and slightly emphasize the internal structures, if any. That is exactly what the new \"Intelligent Resolution\" (IR) feature tries to do.The \"iAuto\" mode in ZS7 is organized the way that you will have decent, good photos in virtually any situation right out-of-the-box. The several hundreds shots I took by now look good on my 24\" display and so they will on the similar size prints. But if you look at them at 100% crop (magnification) then on many of them you might find some areas which do not look natural. If the IR-algorithm decides about a certain low-contrast part on your picture that it's a plane area then it will remove all the noise altogether with all the subtle details from that part of the picture. If you take a picture of a big tree with hundreds of branches (but without leaves) against a bright sky the IR-feature will treat it as a structured area and will slightly sharpen it to look clearer. But when you take a landscape picture with many distant trees in front and behind, those hundreds of crossing branches will create a low-contrast pattern which together with internal sensor's noise might look for IR-algorithm as just a noisy plain area and so it will obliterate all the details leaving only some average color in that part of the picture and so making it looking very unnatural. The thing is that unlike the previous models the noise reduction in ZS7 is pretty strong. I would not call it \"aggressive\" but it's really strong.QUALITY IMPROVEMENTS: There is a way how to get the best out of this camera while shooting landscapes on sunny days. Here is a recipe for experienced amateurs:- Switch the mode dial to the program \"P\" mode.- Press the Menu button and select the lowest ISO 80 instead of \"Auto\" (this is the key-point! If there is no enough light to set that low ISO it will not work).- Make sure you have the \"Intelligent Resolution\" feature on!- Find on the 4th page of the shooting menu the item \"PICT.ADJ.\" and press the right button to go inside. You will see the 4 pictures attributes:CONTRASTSHARPNESSSATURATIONNOISE REDUCTION- A default value for each of them is \"0\". Set \"-1\" for contrast (to reduce the clipping of highlights), \"+1\" for sharpness, leave the saturation unchanged, and most important set noise reduction to \"-1\" or even to its minimum \"-2\". Take this advice as a starting point and try to play with the SHARPNESS and NOISE REDUCTION settings and see what looks more appropriate for you, because some people prefer more sharpness while the others are more concern about noise visibility, so try different settings and choose which one looks better for you.Those settings will allow you to take the most sharp and detailed pictures of landscapes, architecture, etc. if you like that. However you should be alert and check periodically the quality of pictures and if something is going wrong then switch immediately to \"iAuto\" mode. The ZS7's intelligent auto-mode is very sophisticated and might take into account the parameters you're not even aware about. For example, if you apply the full zoom then the aperture drops to a small F/4.9 value giving much less light for the sensor and additionally at that huge focal length 300mm (equiv.) the impact of your shaking hands might be as so much that the optical image stabilization can not completely compensate it and so the camera will have to increase the shutter speed to have the picture un-blurred. In that tough scenario the only high ISO around 300-400 might satisfy all those conditions and the camera will normally set it in auto-mode. But if you keep shooting recklessly at ISO 80 without getting the feedback such kind of pictures might be spoiled in some way. So, use this recipe only if you know what you're doing.Update: Having using ZS7 for a while I've identified the 3 major types of pictures depending what is most important for you on those shots: 1) The main part are the areas with soft gradations like human faces, petals of flowers on macro shots, etc; 2) Mixed content of plain areas and patterns with no central subject; 3) Landscapes with plenty of trees, branches and leaves or small flowers. The above proposed recipe is most effective for the last category - it will give you the sharpest pictures with no low-contrast areas smeared by the strong noise reduction and on the other hand the higher level of noise will be effectively hidden by the complex image structure. For the 2nd category it would be wiser to decrease noise reduction just to -1 (not -2) to make the noise less visible on some plain areas, and for the 1st category it seems better to keep the default neutral setting since to have less noise on the human's face is much more important than lack of minor details around. Anyway you'll still have the advantage of less noise at minimum ISO.I did some comparative testing of ZS7 with my Nikon D90 to find out how much that new IR technology and the above mentioned recommendations could help to improve the overall picture quality. I've uploaded some pictures and put a link into my comments dated 04/24/2010 with the title \"Compare to Nikon D90\". Don't assume, just take a look - you might be a bit surprised :-)LOW LIGHT: Recently I performed a brief comparative test of my P&S; cameras: Panasonic ZS7 and Sony TX7. Shortly - their low-light performance (in normal mode) is very similar. The medium-size 8\"x10\" prints without much cropping look good up to ISO 400. At ISO 800 there is a noticeable drop of the image quality of both cameras and at 1600 the shots look decent only for 4\"x6\" prints. Generally the Sony TX7's shots look smoother because of more aggressive noise reduction while the Panasonic ZS7's ones display slightly more details along with a little bit more noise. So it's the matter of taste to decide which shots look better. I would admit that at ISO 1600 while the Panasonic's shots became much more blurred because of the increased noise reduction strength, the Sony's shots became poured with much coarse noise which got even stronger at ISO 3200 making the pictures completely unusable. So neither of these cameras could be considered as great low-light performers.In case when the shots become too dark because of big lack of light you can select the \"HIGH SENS.\" (sensitivity) scene. The camera will automatically choose a high ISO in the range 1600 - 6400 and decrease resolution to 3MP (it was stated 3200-6400 but in some tests my camera set ISO 1600). It will not provide better quality but at least will allow to increase the picture's brightness.NOTE! This camera is great outdoors, but if many of your pictures are indoors or in low-light environment then you'd better look for some other cameras like Panasonic LX5/LX3 or GF1, Canon S95/S90 or G12/G11, Fujifilm F80EXR, etc. which were designed especially for those conditions. The original model name of this camera is \"TZ\" which stands for \"Travel Zoom\" i.e. it was designed for travel outdoors, not for indoors.DYNAMIC RANGE: means the difference between the most light and dark areas on the picture. If you're taking the shots of your friends on a sunny day with a bright blue sky above and some bushes with green leaves aside and those bushes happen to be in the shadow of a nearby building then the difference between brightness of the sky and the bushes will be thousands of times. On the shots taken by a camera with narrow dynamic range only one element - your friends might look good, but the sky will be completely washed out to white and the bushes will be almost black. For the cameras with a decent DR like ZS7 at least two elements of that picture will look good i.e. either your friends with a nice blue sky while the bushes will be very dark, or the friends and bushes good but the sky pretty much wiped out. The new Panasonic ZS7 has the two solutions to help in such situations: the \"Intelligent Exposure\" feature and the \"High Dynamic (range)\" scene.Although both solutions aim at the same goal they work in a different way and should be used in different situations. The \"Intelligent Exposure\" feature once it is activated via the main or quick menu puts its white icon to the lower left corner and starts constantly analyzing the picture. If the difference in brightness of some significant areas of the picture exceeds a certain threshold then the icon becomes yellow and that feature decreases the overall contrast of the picture. Since that threshold is very high that feature would be mostly useful on the bright sunny days. Its effectiveness is not that big but it still can be helpful and anyway it's better than nothing so you can have it turned on all the time. The \"High Dynamic\" scene should be used only in low light conditions because even in a bright sun it will unconditionally set ISO 400 (or even higher) and decrease the shutter speed. Such a high ISO will greatly increase the amount of noise and therefore will cause a more aggressive noise reduction which will actively obliterate small details. That scene provides much more effective dynamic range compression but at the cost of significantly decreased picture quality. If you're shooting in a low-light condition you have nothing to loose, but if you're taking pictures on a nice day with a plenty of sunshine the loss of quality might greatly disappoint you, so that scene should be used only for the low-light shooting.MOVIE MODE: By now I tried only the advanced AVCHD movie mode - it looked very well. Apart from the processing the still images in this model Panasonic applied their new \"Intelligent Resolution\" feature to video recording as well and the result is just gorgeous! Because of that special processing personally its 720p HD looks even better than from my Sony TX7 with its full 1080 HD resolution.So this new Panasonic ZS7 camera is a very good device for taking nice still pictures and advanced video recording."}]}, {"title": "B0039H2W66", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "Is this thing hard to handle?", "id": "d8228319cea9457d3cd92af544c1affe", "answers": [{"text": "was easy and took right away", "answer_start": 175}, {"text": "The instructions were easy to follow", "answer_start": 49}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "Shipping was quick and installation was average.

The sound they put out is crisp and clear with the bass coming out sharp. You can easily turn off that nasty EQ stuff on your iPod/iPhone/Android/PC...you just don't need the Bass boost with these.  I was listening to my music at a higher bit-rate compared to the nasty ole MP3s, so if you want to test the performance get a \"lossless\" format to test. (don't blame crappy sounds on crappy music format)  I digress, these are great sounding headphones.Secondly, the build of these headphones are solid. You are going to have to be pretty hard on these headphones to break them; normal use even through travel these should hold up a long time.The bads:I knew going in that these weren't active noise canceling, so I wasn't expecting a miracle. They are good for blocking some noise, my old Bose over-the-ear phones performed about the same. So Noise-isolating might be stretching it a bit...they block more sound just by being over your ear.They are heavy...solid construction yes...but they are heavy.Alternate Comfort:  On my head for a few hours at a time, they were just fine. Though for me, I at times wore around my neck, and these are not comfortable; so if you imagine yourself wearing them around your neck at all they are not good.Wrap-up:For the price these are absolutely great headphones; the sound alone competes comparably with the more expensive phones out there."}, {"qas": [{"question": "How is the presence of mid?", "id": "7a9661ab3d42506fa5d568d3f95d634d", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "I put these headphones on, plugged them into my iPod and was immediately 25 years younger and listening to Peter Gabriel in my college library while attempting to study for exams. I lay back and listened for over an hour, flipping through a variety of music, amazed at the sound and ability to become completely lost in the moment.What I'm getting at is that we have gone through an assortment of headphones over the years, headphones for Walkmans (if you don't know what they are they were the best thing before iPods... sort of) headphones for cheap plastic portable cassette players, portable CD players, and finally an assortment of bud earphones for all types of mp3 players and other portable devices. Many of these are poorly built, easily broken and a sorry excuse for listening to music.I forgot how good it can sound to have the music surround your ear in a full headphone and not ear buds. The music fills a bigger space in your head than most ear buds. But don't get me wrong, I have some ear buds that are wonderful including V-MODA R-ROUGE Remix In-Ear Headphones (Rouge) which I really, really like. There is a place for bud style headphones, like walking or hanging outside somewhere. It would be difficult to wear these headphones while taking a hike or riding a bike - even though they are lightweight and comfortable...Sound: I truly got lost listening with these headphones. The sound was so clear, very layered and I could imagine in my minds eye where every musician was standing and where every instrument was placed "on stage". The bass was deep, the vocals crisp and it carried through from one genre to another. They block out most noise. I had them on next to a TV at regular volume and couldn't hear the TV at all while music was playing.Comfort: They were comfortable, very soft foam surround, maybe a little too much tension to keep them tight but I'm not sure there is a way around that with this style of headphones. I was lying down while listening but they stay firm when sitting up as well. The headband is soft and fabric covered so it doesn't catch in your hair.Appearance: They are sleek looking - a little bulky but sleek for this style of headphones. They come in a cool embellished box with a form fitting case.Extras: This set came with a case, two very sturdy audio cables, one has controls for iPod 3GS and up. It also works with my iPod Classic to control volume and pause. The connections for the cables are sturdy and well designed. There are two removable 'pockets' for storing the audio cables and a Carabiner just in case you wanted to clip your headphones somewhere for storage. There is also a 1/4" adapter.Please visit my customer images to see some of the detailing and extras.The packaging says that these were designed to work with iPod but I'm sure they would work well for all components.I hope to find the time, away from two young children, to use these more and more.

The verdict is in- this cable is a very high quality cable which works beautifully with no problems at all.Despite it being thick and a little tricky since you can not bend it at a sharp angle, it is easy to work with by looping a bit as the 6+ft of cable gives us plenty of room to do so, but I would advise you to check out any holes in furniture or other small areas that the cords might have to pass through to be sure you have enough room to pass this cable through if there is any question- BEFORE you install it.We have checked this cable with various devices- PS3, HDTV, Blu-Ray player and most recently it is being used from a high quality amplifier to a very high level audio-visual computer system.  In all cases, the picture/sound has been top notch, with no disintegration of information flow or integrity of signal.The quality of this cable is definitely high and equals or surpasses the performance of cables that are much more expensive on the market but have brand names that people are more familiar with.  We have a LOT of cables and cords in our house as we have an electronic addict in our home, so we have a lot of HDMI cables and devices to test and compare with.

Makes life a LOT easier!I highly recommend this cable, as long as you are not required to make a sharp angle for installation with no extra cord to loop around, or as long as your cable does not have to pass through a very tiny space (as is often the case when you have multiple cables running through holes in furniture, or other small spaces."}, {"qas": [{"question": "How is the deal?", "id": "fa093d06947142ea3fda83d016d42b6b", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "A little background ... when HD TVs became a big selling commercial product (4-5 years ago), it was a big \"profit center\" of businesses to give you a good deal on the TV, and charge ridiculous prices for HDMI cables.  \"You need this\" the big box salesman would say and then hand you a $30 or $40 package with a 3 or 6 foot HDMI cable - usually of dubious quality.  Many still do this, and some of the bigger high-discount box stores still have amazingly high prices on \"accessories\" for any audio or video equipment.Savvy consumers quickly learned that they could get a perfectly good HDMI cable for single digits, and an online cable business in the Los Angeles area has made a big business about selling excellent quality cables for small markups.Meanwhile, Amazon has also been a great source for third party companies selling good cables at steep discounts.  At the same time, Amazon has become involved in providing video content, so it makes sense for them to also provide their own products for watching those videos (assuming that your 7\" Kindle Fire screen is too small, lol).Just looking at these cables shows that Amazon is quite serious about the video business.  The smooth black plastic with the Amazon name/logo is covered with cellophane to keep it looking good for when you are ready to install the cable.  The plugs are relatively slim, so that they fit in situations where there are plugs above and below the HDMI jack.The Amazon Basics name on the cable itself, shows that even the raw cable supplier is making significant quantities specifically made for this product.Unfotunately, I cannot yet test the ethernet or other advanced capabilities of the cable, but it is certainly nice to know that it won't be necessary to buy a new cable later if I do upgrade.The cable clearly has tough and solid construction, without being overly thick and awkward to work with.I did try replacing the HDMI cable to my main living room 1080p screen with this cable and could not detect any difference.  Since the 3 year old cable was a top premium HDMI cable of its day, that is a very good recommendation for this product.Of course, the biggest selling point is the very inexpensive selling price of this cable.  Since it qualifies for Amazon's usual free shipping when included with other items to make up the minimum, it's hard to find any other HDMI cable of equal quality at this price."}, {"qas": [{"question": "How is the picture quality?", "id": "118330e21adb74ae1cac7f9fc7664bbe", "answers": [{"text": "Picture quality is great as well as the quality of the cable", "answer_start": 50}, {"text": "Picture quality is great", "answer_start": 50}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "Used three of these for some new TVs I purchased.

You do not need any proof of purchase, and it does not matter how much time has passed - just pop the broken buds into a small envelope and you're good.Firstly, I want to mention a few important tidbits that you should know.1.  Pay attention to the L and R (engraved on the stem) on these earbuds, which can be hard to see.  Do not reverse them, as doing so can affect fit and sound quality.  I find putting a piece of colored tape on the right cord makes life easier.2.  Don't assume you know which gel size will fit you best; make sure you try on all 3 gel sizes that come with these, as using the wrong size can dramatically decrease sound quality and comfort.  If your earbuds are uncomfortable or the sound quality does not meet your expectations, then you likely have the wrong size gel installed.  For myself, I automatically went with the smallest size because my ears are small, but those made the earbuds sound like cheap garbage.  It wasn't until I tried the next size up did I get the full quality of sound that these are designed for.  So pay attention to this, since it really matters.3.  These have a straight plug, not an L-shaped plug.  So you will need to be extra careful as a straight-plug design increases the amount of pressure both on the plug, and the headphone jack of your player.  This leads to frayed wires or a loosening of the headphone jack, or both, which ultimately lead to the classic problem of only one side having sound.4.  The cord is long - measures approximately 4 feet, 5 inches.5.  Burn-in works with these.  Slightly.Now, as for the build quality - I'm impressed.  They are not cheaply made earbuds, despite their low price.  The wires are nice and solid, and feel very well made - not flimsy or plastic-y.  The silicone gels (tips that go in your ear) are very soft and pliable, and even have the Skullcandy logo engraved on them.  Nice touch.They feel good, too.  Really good.  Both the material, and the way they fit my annoyingly small ears.  And they don't fall out constantly, although I do sometimes get the sensation that it's getting sucked into my left ear.And yes, these come with 3 different size gels.Sound is great.  These handle bass extremely well for mid-tier earbuds, and highs aren't so shrill and piercing as with other comparable brands.  Some of this really depends on your player, too.  Even between iPods, sound quality does differ.As far as functionality goes, I find I am able to run with these with no problem.  The wires do not get tangled, and you can easily adjust the split in them with an attached slider (that has 'Skullcandy' written on it in the corresponding colour), which I find very convenient.  I do not hear this thumping sound that others claim to hear from wire-movement, so I can't confirm that.The only things I dislike are the straight plug, and the lack of a case.  Otherwise, I am thoroughly impressed with Skullcandy.  The craftsmanship, the quality of sound, and all the little extras that Skullcandy does that really lets you know that they are paying attention, and that they care about their products and end-users.Worth every penny.UPDATE 12/31/2011 - My current pair has seen daily use for over a year now with no issues."}]}, {"title": "B003HFCDLY", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "What is the quality of the contrast?", "id": "5a995fb4bb6ea1556a9cc6419fe9975d", "answers": [{"text": "I think that the performance (colors, contrast, brightness) is very good for home use", "answer_start": 508}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "I bought this monitor nearly 2 years ago.

One of our dogs got tangled in the mouse cord and subsequently disconnected the internal wiring. Had a computer repair shop look at it but he couldn't repair it so I went online to buy a new one. I couldn't believe the $200-$400 asking prices for the discontinued trackball. Enter Amazon.After reading reviews on this product I was concerned about driver installation, but decided to give it a shot for $40. So happy I did. Installation was quick and flawless. Simply plug in the USB receiver and the mouse was recognized fairly quickly, although it took about 4-5 minutes before the mouse would actually function. I currently use a Toshiba L675 laptop with 64 bit Vista OS. The trackball speed was far too fast out of the box for my liking, so I went to the Logitech website and downloaded the software to customize the mouse settings. That was also easy, but you will need to know your OS properties in order to choose the correct download.I have had no issues with errant scrolling or anything else. I will surely update this review in a few months after more use. If you are a fan of the original trackball, you will love this too. It is close enough in size, weight, shape, and feel, that any differences are subtle. My one small gripe is the on the old trackball, I could pop the ball out of the bottom with my finger to clean it out. This trackball has a much narrower diameter hole, and so I need a pencil or something to pop the ball out. Other than that, I'm so happy I found this product. I plan on buying two more to stick in a drawer in case the same situation ever happens with this version. If you have any questions, feel free to ask and I will do my best to answer.

It was nice to see how bright it was even during the daytime, windows all on one side of the room but no strong light as it is the start of winter and a basement.  Summer time it would be good to have curtains for light control like any projector.  When I get curtains up I am sure that will take care of any issues during daytime, even in summer. Of course as with any projector the more control over light in the room the better the picture. I did a lot of research before purchasing this unit. As a projector unless one has a totally dark room meaning zero light and dark walls then ANSI lumens are important, this one with its 2000 ANSI LUMENS is great and use this to compare with other projectors, if less I would be weary.I wanted to have a NATIVE 1080P RESOLUTION which I do not regret and would not get a projector with lower resolution. One may notice that a projectors specs say they can do 1080 but this is misleading as this is not NATIVE resolution, meaning they try to upconvert to a 1080i (i=interpolated) and it is not the same thing, not even close. I want to see blu rays in their full resolution which this does. One may also purchase an A/V receiver to upconvert the source material for best picture quality, my Blu Ray player also does this upconversion, but it is still not a true 1080P. While not as good as the 1080P one will see when playing a Blu Ray disc for example, the picture from HD cable channel which is 720P is still AMAZING just as good as the picture on my 42 inch LCD HDTV and better than my older 55 inch rear projection HDTV. High Def video from a home video source such as full 1080P from an AVCHD format camcorder for example is stunning and home movies look as good or better than store bought if done properly. The input source is of course going to dictate how good the picture is, so it will look as good as the source input, this is not always the case with all projectors, they have to have the capacity to project the image at full input resolution such as this one. Most projectors that have this resolution cost more and a flat panel in the screen sizes this is capable of are going to be many thousands of dollars more.I do not use the Eco setting but the bulbs last 3-4000 hours and are only around 120.00 and you only need one which is a very good deal.  One of the great and unique features of this projector are the LENS SHIFT adjustment wheels, this projector does not have to be dead center on with the screen as those knobs can shift the picture both vertically and horizontally, at least several inches or more depending on how far the projector is away from the screen, in some situations this could mean the difference between having a projector and screen work in a room or not. The lens shift moves the picture left to right or up and down keeping it in focus.  So your screen can be way off from being centered with the projector and still fit dead on.  The projector itself has plenty of features and adjustments but it did not take long to find a good setting close to out of the box. While this has 2 HDMI inputs I only use one with all of my components running through my A/V receiver, a Pioneer Elite VSX30 for 275 with 7.1 surround which I am very happy with.I got the Peerless mount that I think was a good choice, it fits this projector and is good quality with two nice pitch adjustment knobs. It is white and matches the color of the projector well. Since it is ceiling mounted it is up and out of the way of my dog and one has to be right up close to the screen before one would block the picture at all, standing in between the projector and screen with this set up does not shadow the screen.If one is going to ceiling mount this you may wish to purchase a longer power cord.  I bought a 15 foot power cord for this for about 8 bucks so it is long enough to plug in to my power conditioner, extension cords are a bad idea. This worked great for my ceiling installationCables To Go 09482 18 AWG Universal Power Cord, IEC320C13 to NEMA 5-15P (15 Feet)One can run cords through walls or you can do as I did and use conduit such as the product here which hides the cord and sticks on and requires no nails.Wiremold C210 White Cordmate II Kitso it looks like a nice clean installation.I also being on a budget bought the Favi 100 inch 16:9 widescreenFAVI HD-100 16:9/100-Inch Electric Projector Screenwhich works great and provides an awesome picture with this projector.  My set up surprises everyone that it did not cost much more. It comes in various sizes but 100 inches was the biggest that would fit.  There is information here on the pages of the FAVI screens for sale which will show you the dimensions of each screen size to help determine the size screen that will fit in your room.  In my case both the horizontal fit as well as how far the screen came down was important information.While all my components are capable of 3D I have not really liked 3D that much in the theater and decided I would not want to play much 3D content at home so I concentrated on brightness and the 1080P resolution and the adjustment features of this projector and zero regrets.  If I were to change my mind in the future when the technology has progressed I can revisit that, but for now this is all I could ever want.I like this better than the movie theater.  As the screen is smaller it is easier to get a high resolution picture.  The surround sound speakers which are the Energy Take Classic 5.1 set with the Energy CF-30 floor standing speakers (I got a great deal for 150 each new) make for wonderful sound.  There is plenty of great home theater equipment out there but this was the best for my budget at the time.  I would highly recommend a good audio set up to go along with the amazing picture quality you will have with this projector.If you purchase this and want some set up help there is a web site projector central (...) where you can enter your projector model and screen size and it's contrast ratio and seating location and other information and it has a wizard that will tell you the optimum distance to mount the projector from the screen and ideal seating distances and details such as that.  Very helpful in a successful installation. I used their calculations with perfect results.I also got a Harmony 1100 remote so that I don't need 6-7 remotes,Logitech Harmony 1100 Universal Remote with Color Touch ScreenI got that new for 200.00 (heck of a deal) and extra batteries on Amazon for 8.75 eachLogitech Battery for Harmony Remote Control 1000 1100 1100i 3.7V 1250mAh.  That works like a charm with it's touch screen.  I even got a IR dimmer switch that runs off its own remote or the Harmony remote. I also got the RF accessory so I can use either RF (which is not line of sight) or RF to IR for all the components, helpful if your components are behind your seating location.I highly recommend this projector.  I would not settle for one with lower resolution or lower lumen output, you would never obtain as high resolution as a full 1080P projector and you would not get the brightness necessary for daytime viewing if you do not have a room that is completely dark. On the other hand for $1050.00 you will be quite happy with the picture you get from this especially if the source is at least HD (720P) or using its full capability of 1080P quality like a Blu Ray. t  Not that it is bad with a regular definition channel or regular DVD, but you get your most amazing picture with the best input source just as is the case with any projector or TV. I can't emphasize enough how much the 1080P quality is worth.  This projector is simply the best deal for the money I could find. Consider this, if you want a large picture you can get a very large screen such as the Favi or many others that are at least 120 inches, this projector could potentially display a giant 300 inch picture if you have the space to do so.  But even at 100 inches like I have what else can you get for that money in this size with this resolution aside from a good projector? Very little and it is going to cost a lot more. And if you have an electric screen that moves out of the way you take up very little space when not in use and the projector itself takes up very little space. Also unlike a flat panel TV you have a set picture size.  With a projector like this you can just change your screen size while using the same projector and go smaller or larger with the screen size if you change the location which either constricts the size of the screen you are able to use or enlarges the space to allow for a larger screen.  This is a flexibility you will only find in a projector.  And with the lens shift of this particular projector you have even more flexibility for placement of the projector.Also consider that this weighs about 16 pounds out of the box.  An LCD flat panel HDTV would likely weight 100 plus for a large one.  So this give you a great portability.  The 100 inch screen I am using only weighs 27 pounds.  Both of which can be carried by one person.  That can not be said about a flat panel.  Flat panels are great.  I use them in smaller sizes at reasonable prices in locations they make sense.  But for a home theater you can't beat this for anywhere near the price and you will be stunned by how great the picture is from it.I can't say enough how happy I am. I took a month to research all this and made this decision.  The first time I put a show on the screen I instantly knew it was all I had hoped for.  It gets used on a daily basis and I have now used it for about 500 hours (the projector keeps track of lamp hours used) without a single issue.  In about one minute I have a projector which is always out of the way on the ceiling taking up no usable space in the room along with a screen also not taking up any usable space to having a 100 inch incredibly high resolution viewing experience night or day.  The only adjustments I make are to the projector by selecting \"Dynamic\" during the bright day time to \"Living Room\" which is slightly dimmer to avoid seeing any pixilation at night and that only takes a few seconds from the remote to change.UPDATE: I have been using this projector for over a year now.  No problems at all during this time, and still no regrets that I purchased this unit. I do find that I still prefer either an HD video source or BluRay whenever possible but that would be the same with any projector or HDTV, particularly one with a very large screen such as this is capable of. I still only use the two settings, one for daytime and one slightly less bright for night to avoid seeing any pixilation artifacts.BULB LIFE: Well my bulb finally went.  It lasted exactly 2837 hours.  Epson says that it will last between 3000-4000 hours so it was close.  Keep in mind that I have never used the Eco setting only full power.  I would urge anyone buying a replacement bulb to ONLY USE EPSON.  There are lots of knockoffs out there which are cheap and will not have the performance, life, possibly explode or other negative things.  Only the Epson lamp is worth buying.  It is of course the most expensive and I found a new one for about $60 less from another camera supply site than Amazon is offering it for right now.  But no regrets. I have had some awesome viewing of countless movies and football games and tv shows and whatever on the huge screen with a great picture for all this time.To extend the life of your lamp make sure that it has plenty of room for air to circulate around the projector, particularly the back where the air intake and filter are.  Vacuum the air filter from time to time and replace it with a new one when you change the bulb.  Also make sure to allow the lamp to cool down before moving the projector if it is not mounted on the ceiling like mine.  Those things will help give you the longest life.  I have read of people having significantly lower lamp life and I suspect they are not doing all those things.  I also have a in room air cleaner to help keep dust down in the room I have my projector and components for the home theater.

One was the main router and the other was an access point connected to the first via Ethernet cable. In the past few months, one of them started acting up and I decided this was a good time to upgrade. After reading lots of reviews, this was the router I chose and I bought two of them.The entire experience couldn't have gone smoother. After turning off my old routers, I opened one of these and set it up to be the main router. The order of turning things on in the manual didn't work out for me, so I just unplugged everything and started them in order from the cable: cable modem, router, then computer. Doing that, everything talked fine. I ran the quick setup, then went back to change the settings to the choices I wanted. I upgraded the firmware, set an SSID for each band, turned on WPA-Personal and set keys, played with a few other settings (setting IP and hard-coded DNS servers) and restarted everything again with all of my wired Ethernet devices plugged in. I left choices that I used to make manually, like channels, to auto. It worked perfectly right off the bat.Then I set up the second router as an access point. This router has a particularly nice feature in that you can just tell it that you want it to be an access point, rather than a full router, and it makes all the changes to the settings for you. If that's not enough, when in the access point mode, the WAN port becomes a LAN port so you don't have to waste one of your four wired ports on connecting the two routers together. Very nice! I turned off all the various server functions, gave it an IP, set it up with the same SSIDs and keys, took it upstairs, plugged in the wired peripherals and turned it on. Like the first one, it just worked.It's just been one day, so I can't speak to things like longevity, but the set up was easy and the routers seem really solid. As expected, the 2.4GHz band gives me greater range, but that range is greater than what I used to get with my old Linksys. The 5.0GHz band has about the same range as my old Linksys... perhaps a tad smaller. As it turns out, while I did have some speed problems on the old setup, both bands here give me fast, reliable connections, so I really don't see much effective difference between connecting to the 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz bands in practice. Since I run my streaming video via wired Ethernet, I guess that makes sense. I probably didn't need a dual-band router, in hindsight, but I'm happy with this.Also, the combination of this change, and a new cable modem, have resulted in about a 20% increase in my Internet speed. I can't say which component(s) are responsible, but I'm happy with the result. In the end, I can't imagine anyone asking for more in terms of ease of setup or short-term performance than this router. I recommend it.**UPDATE**January 2 2012I bought these back in August and by mid-December, I started having problems with connectivity to the Internet. Some things would work (like web browsing) and others wouldn't (like checking email). If I left it alone, eventually, it wouldn't pass along any traffic at all. Whenever it happened, a quick unplug and re-plug would solve the problem. I won't go into all the details of the troubleshooting, but it turns out that both units I bought have gone bad. I have shipped one back to ASUS for replacement and am limping along with just the one (and having to restart it all the time). When that one is replaced, then I'll send the second one back. I really like the features on these routers, but I can no longer recommend them. When two out of two have failed, then it's hard to think that it's just one of those things. I have lowered by rating from 5-stars to 3.January 23 2012The stars just keep falling on this for me. I still haven't received the one back that I sent for replacement/repair even though their web site status says it was repaired weeks ago. (They received it Jan 5.) They just won't bother shipping it back to me. In the meantime, the other one finally became unusable, so my investment in two of these relatively expensive routers has ended up for nothing. I just ordered an RMA number for the second one. Since it's not working, I may as well see if they'll actually fix it and return it. We'll see. To ASUS's credit, their tech support people are friendly and helpful and one guy did offer today to see if he can get the repair people to ship mine out. I can't live without Internet access, so I ended up buying a factory refurbished Linksys E2500 for about one-third of the price of these. It's running brilliantly and now I'm not even sure I want these ASUS routers back in service once they're fixed. I'm seriously considering buying a second Linksys and selling these when they come back. I've reduced my rating to 2-stars. What's the point of buying high-end products if they keep failing?February 16, 2012The first router is finally on its way back to me. They promise 10 day service, but by the time I get it back, it will have been 42 days. In the meantime, I bought a second refurbished Linksys E2500, and I am not putting the ASUS ones back in service when they do get back. The Linksys routers work much better, have stronger signals and (most importantly) are working reliably. My Netflix used to pause and stop to re-buffer all the time. I never knew if that was about the routers, the cable modem or the Internet service itself, but that hasn't happened once since putting the new routers in place. Yeah, the last star is falling away. I'm getting better service from routers that cost one-third of what these do, so I'll be selling these when they get back.December 3, 2012I've been using the Linksys routers as described above and had left my two Asus routers, returned from repair, in their boxes. I had intended to sell them, but never got around to it. Recently, I decided to set up a media server and thought that gigabit wired Ethernet would be a good idea (the E2500s are 10/100 routers). Cable Internet doesn't come into the house fast enough for that to matter, but moving HD video around the house might. I figured, since I have these two repaired Asus routers sitting here, I'd go ahead and swap out the Linksys ones for them. The Asus ones do have a lot more features. So I upgraded to the latest firmware (3.0.0.4.260), set them up from scratch and put them to work. The good news is that the new firmware does support IPv6 and it works fine. The bad news is, they only lasted two days before acting up again. After working Saturday night and Sunday, I sat down with my iPad tonight and, despite a 4-bar signal, it wouldn't open a web page reliably. I switched it from the 2.4 GHz to the 5 GHz network, and it worked again for a while, then stopped working again. Then I tried to play a show on Netflix from my Apple TV (wired, not wireless) and for the first time since my last update, the show kept stopping to reload the buffer. I swapped the two Linksys routers back into the network and all problems cleared up instantly. Apparently these work for some people, but even after repair and an update to the latest firmware, I am having no luck. Now I'm reluctant to sell them, since they don't really work, so I guess I'll finally write off this loss and give up on Asus altogether."}]}, {"title": "B004CLYEFK", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "What is the length of the cable of a television ?", "id": "b67a9e235ed955a51d09c7f081a62cb5", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "What more can you say about Micra Digital USB A to USB B Cable other than it has a sturdy and thick wire and it does what its supposed to do.

It also works as a great stand for keeping your screen at a comfortable eye level.  Just double check your unit before ordering, otherwise you might not be getting what you need.

Well now on to the review. As many other reviewers have noted, this camera is not perfect - yes, the pictures do look blurry at pixel level, the noise reduction is heavy handed, the battery takes a while to charge, the GPS is a bit slow, the flash is a bit overpowering at times and a point  I would like to note - the lens wobbles - yes, if you touch it while it is extended you will see that it has quite a bit of lateral play - don't worry it won't fall off :-). But even after all these common gripes, this is a pocket full of fun - for all you photographers out there - this camera can truly keep you entertained for months on end.This finally replaces my all time favorite P&S; - the Fuji F30 that has been traveling in my backpack nonstop for 5+ years. No, I am not disposing the F30 - I have not found a single P&S; to date that can best the low light performance and I am keeping it till the day it dies out on me.Back to the HX9V. I have only one advise for serious shooters - please do not shy away from using the scene modes and the iAuto and Superior Auto modes ... yes, it is fun to tweak the shutter speed / aperture / iso etc. in the manual and program modes. However, do remember that the best photos that you will get is when you allow the camera to do it's electronic magic on the picture processing - so while  manual modes make us happy to be in control, it is the auto modes that gets you the best shots!Before I finally zeroed down on the HX9V, I did consider both the Nikon S9100 and the Canon 230 - the Nikon lost out owing to the slightly inferior image stabilization and the Canon owing to the slightly narrower lens (28mm versus 24mm on the Sony). I am sure those two are great products as well, but to me the extended feature set of the Sony were just too compelling. And it does take very nice photos in every lighting condition that you can imagine. As you can imagine, daylight shots are a snap for this camera ... if you want to challenge it, try a low light landscape shot at 100 ISO on a tripod - the results will blow you away. Not carrying a tripod? Set it to Superior Auto and shoot hand held for a very nice result that will look great on a 8\" x 10\" print.And of course for everyone interested in shooting HD Video - this is just the best one out there now - period. It replaces my Flip UltraHD - that used to take great videos but the Sony with it's optical zoom, stereo sound AND optical image stabilization while shooting Video is just too good.Don't hesitate - this one is a winner!"}]}, {"title": "B004J3V90Y", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "How is the autofocus?", "id": "94f22f153638283dbde57c75cf97efb7", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "I've been a Canon customer since 1978, when I bought the 35mm Canon A-1, and I've had a Canon SLR ever since. Getting the new flagship model every three or four years was something I did for a long time, but when D-SLRs came along, I began downsizing after the EOS 1Ds I got in 2004. In 2007 I moved to EOS 40D and, although losing the full-size sensor was a sacrifice, it was a step in the right direction. With my recent purchase of the T3i, it's another move away from the professional models.Why would I do that? It's not so much the cost of new cameras that has shaped my decisions to downgrade; it's the size. While professional equipment is important to me, so are professional looking photos. And the truth is, after the newness wears off a D-SLR, I tend frequently to leave the big gun behind and rely on an advanced compact or ultrazoom for most of my shooting. As a result, I have more point-and-shoot pictures than I do pro quality ones.This tendency has ended with the purchase of the T3i. The camera is modestly sized, and I never leave home without it. With the 18-55mm kit lens (very nice little lens for its specs) or 24-105L, it's not any bigger than the Fuji Finepix HS10 I leaned on for most of my shooting this past year. And while the HS10 is hands down the best ultrazoom camera I ever used, the difference in image quality, performance and even video between it and the T3i is night and day.The T3i may not be blazing fast like my 1Ds or the 40D, but 90% of the shooting I do is not that kind of photography, anyway. What the T3i excels at is image quality. I have a whole raft of photos that, eked and tweaked to maximum effect in Photoshop, are only a little better than average because they were taken with a point-and-shoot camera. This camera's image quality, I'm happy to say, is superlative! So are the videos. Rebel T3i is almost too good to be true.An articulating LCD is something I've come to insist upon, and this one is by far the best I've ever used. I don't use Live View every time, but I've certainly been in that mode a lot more frequently with this model than with the 40D! In review mode, the refresh rate is a bit slow when zooming in to look at details, but it's not as slow as reviewing pictures on, say, Panasonic DMC-ZS7. (I did test Canon EOS 60D at Best Buy and noticed that the refresh rate is much faster on that model--perhaps because of the larger battery--but it's really not enough of an issue to deduct a star.)The resolution of the LCD is superb, and because it can be tilted and twisted to advantage, it can be viewed even in strong sunlight.Although the nine-point autofocus system is getting criticism for lagging behind Nikon, focus is swift and accurate. At 3.7 fps, burst mode is cut nearly in half from my 40D's 6.5 fps, but so far this has not hampered my ability to catch fast moving subjects.I appreciate the Lighting Optimizer function and use it a lot under the harsh lighting conditions in the desert where I live. It is of incalculable value.I have yet to haul out the owner's manual, thanks to the on-board guide. Of course it helps that I've owned Canon D-SLRs before, but adjusting settings on this camera is a lot different than on my previous ones. There have been some settings I would have normally needed to consult a manual for, but it hasn't been necessary because the answers are in-camera. (I never shoot in Auto, by the way. I'm a manual mode kinda gal.)Because images are very clean up to ISO 1600 and are usable even at ISO 6400, taking along the Speedlight flash so far has not been necessary. Yet another plus with this Canon iteration.There's something about blown highlights that really sets my teeth on edge, but that has not been a problem, thanks to the T3i's Highlight Tone Priority function. Dynamic range is very good to excellent, even a hair better than my 40D. Colors are more accurate, too. I prefer the contrast one stop under the camera's default setting, which is, admittedly, fairly punchy and will result in a blown highlight here and there. Reducing contrast just a tad fixes that.Eighteen megapixel resolution is outstanding.Sometimes I think about the EOS 60D's speedier performance, more advanced autofocus system and that wonderful electronic level and wonder if I made the right choice. But then I remember the heft and bulk of that camera and all the times I've left my SLR at home for those very reasons, and I know the T3i was the right decision. I really, really like this new camera--and I take it everywhere!"}, {"qas": [{"question": "How is the autofocus?", "id": "2bf4b180ae208551647dbb4f51bbcce8", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "I love  this  camera and Canon products in general, however  it has some issues. The issues did not happen straight away. On the second day of shooting  is when the trouble started.  I make no claim to be a professional photographer, this review is an opinion of a photo hobbyist. So after shooting around a 180 pictures mostly with the view finder the camera went dead no power to the unit. I also had an error code display, I can't  say  for sure  that I could see the entire code, but the camera stopped working. When this happened I removed the battery, and placed it back in the camera, and then the camera powered on. It  performed flawlessly for about 20 or more shots. The shots I took looked amazing but I also had some bad shots. I will take credit for the bad shots  it was not the fault of the camera. When I was finished shooting,  I removed the camera battery and placed it in the charger. The very next day I went for a photo shoot. I shoot mostly view finder,I shot about 200 photos this time. When I was finished shooting  I turned the camera off. Sometime later I went to use the camera  again, I turned the camera on, and no responded. I removed the battery, and charged it, when it was fully charged I placed the battery in the camera and  it worked just fine. I have not used the camera since. I'm concerned with the camera , I bought the camera to use on a family vacation. I don't want to have my camera fail on my vacation, so the following morning I called Amazon Customer Service. I explain my situation with the camera. Amazon is sending me a new camera, expedited shipping it will be here on Wednesday. I will rate this camera with 4 stars.  I will subtract one star for being  unreliable, I really love this camera , and hope the next one will be problem free. I could have just received a lemon I understand  that. Would I recommend this camera to someone else despite its shortcomings.  The answer is yes, however  my tune my change if  I receive another unit with the same issues. Well if that happens I will cut my loses and get a refund sad to say. I owned many Canon cameras both film, and digital and all of those examples performed flawlessly. Until then I will wait with anticipation  for the  new unit to arrive. I rate 5 stars to Amazons customer service they always shine in my eyes.

On paper, it was a good router for the money, it did all the things I needed of it (and then some), but in the end it didn't work out.Our setup includes the following: 1 TV hard-wired to a router for streaming Amazon Prime, etc., 2 laptops on wifi, 2 Roku boxes, 2 iPhones on wifi, 1 iPad, 1 iPod touch, and 1 PS3.The router worked almost all of the time, but that's not good enough for a router.When I first got it, it worked but would reset itself several times a day.  I finally figured out that that was due to the \"self-healing\" or whatever it's called.  When I turned that setting off in the settings, it stopped resetting itelf.  But even outside of that, I had this hooked up for a total of 3 weeks and several times it would lose connection and once I had to go uplug and replug router and modem.  The last few days before I returned it, I would be on PS3 and get random connection errors.In the good column, we have a 20.0 Mb/s connection from our ISP and it would always carry the signal at that speed through the whole of our house, which is about 3,000 sq. ft including 2 floors plus a basement.  While I never really tested trying to overload it by using Amazon Prime, PS3 and some other connections at the same time, it never seemed to lag when several family members were using the internet. Also, the router itelf looks better than most, meaning it could be out in the open in a room and not look too bad.  I liked that it has 4 ethernet outs.Also, the settings are a bit overwhelming and the software seems slow and buggy.  And any time you made any change to the settings, the router would reset itself for between 15-90 seconds.  That seemed like a big of overkill.Lastly, the guest network feature would work, but the connection under that separate SSID name was hideously slow.  If the regular one was connecting at or close to the 20.0 mb/s that we get for speed, the guest network would connect at something like 0.25 mp/s.  That's unacceptable.In the end, I didn't want a router that I had to \"babysit\", and I always felt like that's what I was doing with this.  So I got the Apple Airport Exteme.  So far so good with that."}]}, {"title": "B004OB0EBQ", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "What is case?", "id": "f13a1bb6d232f2b1a875dfe078235da5", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "I ordered this with a tablet and cannot be any happier.

I, so far, have been proven wrong about that. The picture is excellent any way you look at it.Now, I'm not a big gamer. I'm too old for that (although I do own both an Xbox with Kinect and a Wii). So I can't verify the issues other reviewers stated about the slower refresh rate causing their video to lag while playing. As of yet, I saw no lag in anything I viewed to date. I truly believe that unless you are going to be one of those ultimately picky people that I have come across in other reviews, whether you choose to purchase this TV with the 120 hz rate of the 240, I feel you will enjoy the picture either way.One comparison I have between my Samsung 47\" and the LG 55\" is that it seems with all the reviews of these TV's, people are complaining about the light LED bleeding especially from the corners. I saw that very sugnificantly with the Samsung. But, I have to say with my experience of owning this TV in the last week, there is no such bleeding to speak of. The upper left corner seems to display a slightly lighter glow than the other three but nothing to really be annoyed about. After watching the movie \"Cowboys + Aliens\" last night, I was awe struck by the clarity of the picture and the true to life colors. No, it wasn't a blu ray copy, just the standard DVD copy and it was still awesome. I felt as if I could walk right into the screen and be part of the movie. With my theatre sound and that picture, I felt as if I was back at the theatre watching it for a second time. Oh, and it was also not in 3D mode either.I am not sure I am all that big on the local dimming option either because I was a little annoyed that when the scene went dark, and I had the room dark with just the christmas tree lights on, the picture would darken. Then when some sort of lighting would appear on screen, the picture would lighten back up to normal. I thought this was odd as to me, shouldn't the picture, in a brighter setting then become dim instead of brighter? I don't know maybe I was seeing it incorrectly, not sure.As other reviewers have commented about the 3D for this television, in a way I do find it kind of gimmicky, (if that is a word). But, that too, is still a very awesome feature for home theatre. By gimmicky, I found that while using the 3D mode during regular television viewing, if the frame of actors was still with not much movement, then the picture appeared 2D. But once the scene got more active and there was more background motion, then one can very much so see the depth of 3D. I also noticed that when viewing a program in true HD, if in 3D mode, the sharper the picture, the more the 3D depth stands out. Now, movies and videos that are shot in 3D are awesome! I have TRON Legacy in 3D. With the purchase of this TV I also purchased an LG 3D blu ray player. It was so awesome being able to view that movie feeling as if I was at the theatre watching it for the second time in 3D. It is so cool also, with the passive 3D, one can view movies and shows in 3D without worrying about a second box or if the batteries are going to die. You just put the glasses on when switched to 3D mode and totally enjoy!The LG apps are ok. There could be more. One reviewer totally put down the Netflix app. I found nothing wrong with it. It loaded my shows just fine and I actually watched and episode of \"The Munsters\" in 3D. Very cool. I dowloaded the 3D Zone app. It's a cool app if you want something to give you the feel of what your 3D watching experience should be like. The videos are streamed over the internet connection and since my wireless seems a bit hoaky at times where it is located, I had to wait for each 30 second set of video to keep downloading. I also didn't like the way the producers of these 3D vidoes felt it necessary to combine the logos for the videos with actual moving background videos. The whole experience was very annoying for me to watch with all that misplaced movement going on. Once you get passed the logos and the actual video begins to play, then it's pretty cool to watch in 3D.My whole experience with the product at this point is in one word \"Awesome\"! Unless some failure happens with it or I notice other anomolies, I would definitely recommend this product to others. It's a very fun and enjoyable home theatre experience. Reviewers are mentioning how the TV cuts the resolution in half for each eye so you still get the 1080P HD picture. Well all that is way too techincal for this reviewer to worry about. All I know, from my experience the last few days, this product, whether in 3D or not, gives a very sharp, clear, wathable picture. It has a whole suite of picture setting options, some even I don't understand what they do.Oh, and I also find the magic remote quite useful. I prefer using it with the pointer on the screen as a \"one click and point\" button solution over trying to go through the menu options and trying to find all the right keys on the regular remote, especially if you can't see them in the dark. It's so much easier to use than the standard remote control. So, for me, the magic remote is a huge plus!The only drawback I found annoying, as others have mentioned, the speakers for these thin tv's have a bit to be desired. But what can one expect. I felt that once you adjust all the sound options, you can get some pretty good sound out of the built in speakers so again that function isn't even too bad. But, I want to be able to add my first sub-woofer for added bass during regular TV viewing, without having to run it through the stereo reciever where a second sub-woofer is already connected. The only option I could find on the back for an external audio out connection was the headphone jack. I tried plugging my sub-woofer into that jack but because it is labeled as a headphone jack, the tv \"smartly\" disables the on-board speakers and doesn't offer the user the option to do so his or herself. The TV warns you that you have plugged something into the headphone jack and the the speakers turn off. Then I can get some bass through my sub-woofer but now without any sound from the TV. Hmmmmm.... The Samsung at least had not a headphone jack but a labeled audio out jack and didn't disable the internal speakers unless you opted to do so through the options screen. So, now I have to research another way to get sound to my first sub-woofer without the need to turn go through my stereo receiver first.I also noticed people were complaining about the digital fibre optic output and that it didn't pass through the 5.1 audio. I haven't hooked anything up to that yet so I am not going to review or comment further unless I do.All In all, I think the TV so far is awesome and I do say go out and order it or buy it if you have the cash!!!!Update, 1.5 months after purchase....I still go with all the above except now I have tried the 5.1 optical output. I tried playing some dvd video files with 5.1 surroumd sound still encoded and the sound was produced just as it was with the original movies through all 5 speakers. I found that to be awesome!I also don't see where people FREAK out about the saying the resolution is being cut in half when viewing 3D. What exactly do you people feel your eyes are actually capable of detecting when watching television? Geez!! I felt when veiwing 3D, the picture looks every bit as sharp and clear as it did when viewing 2D. Maybe I'm not as picky as some of you but when you expect something more than your own eyes are able to detect in the first place, that is going too far in my book! Just watch it and enjoy!I personally love this television and I personally NOT going to wait a year for some other technology to come out. As far as I am concerned, the next technology will have to be when they make the images holographic and appear in the middle of my living room or viewing area without using any glasses or wearing anything extra for veiwing what-so-ever. Until they master that feet, I'm pretty satisfied with what I have now. Just hope it doesn't blow up on me in the next 5 years or so! :-)"}]}, {"title": "B004QK7HI8", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "How is the picture quality?", "id": "450a3ddcb4dca73d86377b2eb316f708", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "We were trying to live simply and watch less television. We also wanted to save some money by discontinuing our Dish Network service. At first, I was thinking about purchasing an external HDTV antennae but was daunted by the installation.

I live in Apex, NC and our subdivision is surrounded by a lot of trees and we get poor AT&T; cellphone service. But I was encouraged that Mohu has a great return policy. I figured that if it didn't work, I will just return it.I plugged it into my HDTV and had the television do a channel search. The first time I did this, I did not get a lot of channels but after moving it a couple of times (and having my TV do another channel search after each move), I was able to get 19 channels! Among a few minor channels, I got the major networks including PBS, CBS, ABC, Fox, NBC, and The CW. And guess what, at normal viewing distances, the picture quality is comparable to Dish!I'm even contemplating of buying a DVR. There are a few devices that don't even require a monthly subscription. But I'm still thinking about this. It's very tempting to be able to record all the network shows like Fringe, Desperate Housewives, or Dancing with the Stars.

The TV is perfect except for the following things.1) Sometimes the letter buttons on the reverse side of the remote will just stop working. So if you are using the built in YouTube, you might find that you have to manually use the arrows to go to each letter on the screen even though you have all these letter buttons on your remote. They just randomly don't work sometimes.2) Netflix is fine, but YouTube and other apps have serious difficulty streaming for extended periods of time. Even on a 50mbit internet connection, the TV can't seem to buffer the video far enough into the future, and videos play extremely choppy. But this seems to happen more on the 3rd or 4th video you watch, almost like the older videos are being stuck in cache somewhere and now the cache is full, so quitting the app and reloading it makes it better for another two videos... it just seems like they didn't test their included Apps. Maybe this app is provided by YouTube and not vizio, but it is still a part of the TV.3) Automatic volume adjust doesn't work after awhile... the volume will be great, and then sometimes the volume auto adjust feature that is supposed to maintain a constant volume on all content gets screwy, and the volume goes up and down and up and down and up and down while watching movies or videos. Extremely annoying. It can be rectified by either turning the Smart Volume off, or resetting to factory defaults (but then it may randomly return). Turning the Smart volume off would be fine, except when you do this, you may find for certain videos or movies, you will turn the tv volume all the way up to 100% and it will still be quieter than it was when the smart volume was working at 30 or 40%. Basically, your overall maximum volume is seriously reduced. I would say this is the most annoying issue of all with this TV, and if I had known this before hand, I would not have purchased this TV unless I had also purchased a separate audio system.4) About once every 2 months the TV just completely freezes, won't turn off or on until you unplug it. Something about the software on the TV I guess, just has some kind of error and if you are watching TV at the time, the picture gets stuck, and the buttons stop working. You need to unplug the TV and plug it back in. Sometimes it happens when the TV is off, and you can't turn the TV on until you unplug it and plug it back in. This happens without rhyme or reason, but it is rare. Still, it is very annoying when it does happen.5) 3D auto detect is a little poor. It detects fine with certain things like PS3 games, but other things like streaming movies it doesn't detect so well. I'm not sure if other TVs are better at this. It could be a fault of the source.Otherwise, this is a pretty nice TV. I do think it was worth the price at the time I bought it, it was very cheap for the included features. The picture is just fine, and it's big, and the 3D looks good."}]}, {"title": "B004T9RR6I", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "Was it issue ?", "id": "9272dfe044ca6bd7285e5e48ffe008a8", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "UPDATE (26 June 2012):I got ready to add a USB storage device (Seagate 2TB) to the router and when I launched the router page I was presented with a new screen and asked to create an account for Cisco Connect Cloud.  I created the account and was presented with a new way to manage my router.  The new way has a new (and improved) management screen that makes it easy to manage, it takes some time to get used to, but it is very user friendly (I am used to the more technical way, so I have to look closer through the options to find most stuff).  The system is nice since you can access it from different computers without using your home network.  You can now use neat apps to limit the network (like content and media and protect your network), most apps are advertised and some are available for Android, but most say coming soon for iPhone.  Some look promising and the new system is neat.  I look forward to the improved version for iPhone (over Cisco Connect Home). -- One thing to point out, the Cisco Cloud will log you out if you do not stay active (kind of bad for your own router...), but the device list customization is nice and you can add custom names and images for each item (to easily recognize suspicious devices.The iPhone app is also available in the Apple App Store and is a small install.  Once I logged in (with the account I created when I launched the router page), from the app you can see the status of your network (is it connected to internet, who [what devices] are connected), you can also edit most parts of the router settings (not the more advanced stuff, like the QoS, Gaming, and Internet settings), but you can edit passwords, wireless names and passwords, and guest access.  Pretty neat, and it will be fun to see what other apps become available that make this even better.I also wanted to add that when I tried to add my USB Storage device, I ran into trouble.  I had the drive formatted in exFAT (I did not want the 4GB file size limitation of FAT 32 nor a specific to Windows or Mac (since I use both)).  I plugged in the drive and the Cloud Connect did not recognize it.  I contacted support and they informed me that the router only supports: FAT32, NTFS and HFS+ formats.  So, I wanted to let you all know, just in case you try to use it with a LINUX formatted or exFAT formatted drive.  I am going to format it into NTFS and use the network only to connect to it from my Mac.  Once it was formatted for NTFS, the Cisco Connect Cloud recognized it instantly.  The settings were easy to understand and there were easy options to setup FTP settings for accessing files over the internet (I did not want this, since I just wanted to share the drive on the local network).  When I opened Finder on my Mac I could get to my drive over the router name in Shared section.  The USB storage section also included addresses to access your storage drive.I was excited to see this router after seeing the online push and emails that Cisco has sent out advertising there new Router with Apps.  I was curious on what they would utilize with the Apps.  Since my E4200v2 and E2000 both support the Cisco Connect Express app from my iPhone.  Apparently the big app, that is what all the buzz is about is the Cisco Connect Cloud.  I looked around for it, and it is not advertised on the box or on many sites, so I finally found it on the Cisco website, but it apparently will not be available until the Summer (I always believe that stuff should not be released until all the features are available, with apps and cloud based services this type of delay has become quite prominent). So I cannot use the main new feature until later...  Cisco says once it is available the Cisco Connect app/software will alert me.  As soon as it is available I will definitely try it out, but I have a fear with that high amount of Upstream traffic will slow my network down (I have AT&T; DSL), so I am curious about it, and will update my review when it is available.Now for the router itself:Like I said, I am updating from a Linksys E4200v2 to the Linksys EA4500.  So far there is no difference.  They have the exact specs (from what I see), just the new one has app enabled (for an app that is not out yet...)So Since they are near identical routers, installation was similar.  I never like using the install CDs, since I do not want there software on my computers.  So I plugged into the router using a network cable, and went to the router's home page (192.168.1.1).  The default setting is username: admin, password: admin.  I then from the main page set up my DSL connection, so since I have AT&T; DSL, I selected PPPoE, then inserted my att email and then my password (provided by your DSL provider), it is a different approach for Cable Internet (MAC Cloning is the easiest), although if you are not sure how to do this you might want to go with the software, I am familiar with setting up networks, so it is easier to do it manually.  Set your routers IP here, and the range of addresses for leasing (you can just use the default, unless you need more than 50 devices, then change it accordingly).I then went to the Wireless tab and set up Manual WiFi settings, I like broadcasting on the 2.4 and 5GHz so I can manually connect my 5GHz devices to this network and my 2.4GHz to there network (although 2.4GHz devices cannot see the 5GHz broadcast).  I gave each network a recognizable name for my network, and then used WPA-2 Personal for encryption, make sure to use at least two combinations (numbers + letters or + symbols), it makes brute force attacks nearly impossible due to time required (I use letters + numbers + symbols).\\I then set up the Guest Access (which can be done from the web interface, this was not possible on the E2000s), I gave it a name and a password and limited it to 5 guests.  Guest access creates a network separate from your main network, different IP address group for the two (for example my home is 192.168.1.XXX, and my guest is 192.168.3.XXX), this way guest cannot see my machines on my main network.  A neat feature when relatives come over.I then went over to Quality of Service and set my Media Center, Roku 2, and Skype Applications as High Priority to ensure that they work properly even if I have a lot of activity on other devices.I also went into the DHCP Reservation (Home page toward bottom), and gave my Printer a Static IP address.  To do this go to DHCP and then if you see your printer in the list check the box next to it and hit Add, then give it a name and Static address.  You then need to tell the printer to use that Static IP (this ensures proper behavior).  If you do not see your item yet in the Client list, you can get your MAC address from the device (make sure to get Wireless if you plan to connect wirelessly or Wired if you plan to connect over Wire (they are different MAC addresses, even in the same machine! [Separate network devices]).  Then in the DHCP Client type in a name, your preferred IP address and then the MAC address.  I do this for printers to ensure that computers that connect to it using its IP address stay connected even if the network reboots and issues out new IP addresses (it takes a little extra time, but is worth it to ensure devices like Printers stay active on the network).This device can have USB HDD and USB Printer plugged in to serve as a file or print server.  This is great for people who have older USB printers and want to share it across the network without keeping a PC running all the time just to host it.  The file sharing is also nice for large USB HDD that you want access to over the network.In the end this is a great router, has some great features and is easy to install and monitor (whether you use the Cisco Connect or the Web Interface), I look forward to playing with the Cisco Connect Cloud (and wish that when devices come out that their new features were available at release), but in the end if you need a router able to handle larger networks, and high entense applications (I canceled Satellite for Internet Streaming and Off Air broadcasting (HD HomeRun to Media Center Computer with Hulu Desktop) and Roku 2, and canceled home phone for a Skype subscription.  Therefore, I need a router that can handle this type of network activity, and these routers (EA4500, E4200v2) have worked perfectly and never have any problem keeping my network live!

I am glad I read about the local vs. web based setup before I installed it because it was confusing at first.The throughput is much better than the previous router. I don't have numbers but everybody in the house (3 teenagers!# happily streams Netflix and hulu etc. and I still have bandwidth for my work.The previous Linksys routers all had decent parental controls. I could create rules and activate them based on time. This device has extremely rudimentary controls. Essentially not usable. You can't block multiple devices or multiple sites at the same time. The control allow the user to pick on/off times for each rule on a nifty time grid, but each rule can only affect one device or one website.The connected device manager is an improvement over previous versions but it still could be better. I have devices show up multiple times #same MAC#. Some devices don't show up #only 4 of 5 Sonos components show up). I like that I can name each device and give it icons.I really like the GuestNet feature. Super easy to set up. Your guest just connect to your network and automatically get asked a password (which you can set, and which is NOT your regular Wifi password) and they're connected to the internet but NOT your network. I like this for three reasons: 1) I can change my guest network if I'm worried about neighbors or WiFi hijackers. 2) I can make my regular WiFi password much more complicated and thus stronger because my guests don't have to type it in; and 3) My guests can't get access to my files so I can remove one level of password protection from my networked computers. This is a great feature.Things I would like to see improved:The web interface is incompatible with IE11 !!! Had to re-install Google Chrome!!!The interface WAN speed check app is iPad incompatible! It's flash based.The parental controls need to be improved. I would like to see the ability turn multiple devices or websites on and off at different times. Then I would like to see a master list of rules with an on/off button next to them. I have three daughters each with a computer, phone and ipod. Each has different needs for internet access because their school times are different and website access and times are different for different ages.The speed check utility needs to run on ipads.The device list manager needs to work more reliably, i.e. show all devices and then only once.I would really like to see a network map.Guest Network is great! I would love to see an email notification service so I get emails when guest sign in or out. Similar to my NAS sending me error messages.Overall I think this is a well functioning device.

I had heard that the new software (Cisco Cloud Connect) was very intuitive and easy to use, despite some early controversy about it.  By the way, many of the 1 star reviews are based on concerns about privacy that have been put to rest by the manufacturer.This router is among a select few \"state of the art\" routers offering multiple but simultaneous operation on both the 2.4 and 5.0GHz bands - each band is capable of 3 streams (connections). This is a so called 900 router (the current gold standard for home routers).Much has been written about the new software - some of which was full of praise (including a glowing CNET review) and some of which is quite damning (including many 1 star reviews here on Amazon). The bottom line is that this software is wonderfully easy to use and any concerns that Cisco might be monitoring your internet activity have been put to rest by the manufacturer. Cisco has revised and clarified their policies to make it abundantly clear that this is a NON ISSUE. See Cisco's remarks posted right here on Amazon. So many of these 1 star reviews are quite dated.Also remember that Cisco allows you to opt out of this software altogether and administer your router locally with no connection to Cisco or the cloud (internet).What we have here is a \"top of the line\" advanced router that is very easy to set up thanks to its intuitive software.  That is exactly what I wanted ---- because routers can be quite difficult to setup/manage, particularly the very best (and most advanced) ones. The EA 4500 is very easy to setup and is a true \"set and forget\" type of device.So, what is not to like? The software and router are great and the fact that it can be managed in the cloud (meaning the router can be accessed via the internet) is largely unimportant. You will, most likely, just like me, simply set it up (using all or most of the simple software defaults) and forget about it! But for those of you who have the rare need to manage a router once it is set up , then you can access your router via any internet connection if you have passed Cisco's extensive security measures.As of August, 2012, the other competing routers you should look at are the Asus RT-N66U, WD (Western Digital) N900 and the Netgear R6300. I based my choice on Cisco's very intuitive software and very good range. While it may not always be the best (according to professional reviews), it has a better than average range.What may confuse many future buyers is that there is a new DRAFT (meaning far from finished) standard that is coming to Wi-Fi and routers. You will see, no doubt, many new routers coming to market boosting of conformance to the \"draft\" or the unfinished AC standard (802.11ac). The fact that NO clients (meaning there is NOT ONE real world receiving device) that exists for this new and yet to be finished standard is never pointed out. While meaningless, every router manufacturer will start to bring out new devices, or firmware upgrades to claim  \"compliance\" to this new DRAFT standard of AC. You can, at least for the next couple of years, largely ignore this spec.If you want a high performance router that simultaneously operates on both bands, can easily handle 3 simultaneous signals per band and works with all current standards and devices - then this is the one for you. If you want a set and forget type of device that is easy to setup ---this is also the one for you. Highly recommended.I should add this router also creates a GUEST network (a network that can never access your home files).Yet, if friends come over, they will be greeted with an easy Wi-Fi connection. You can turn off this feature easily in the setup but it is a real convenience that most people will like.  Frankly, I doubt there will be many that turn it off since it is both secure and really convenient for guests. Yet to be fair, most other new high end routers now also offer this same feature. So it is not unique to this router yet a welcome addition to the feature set of most newer high end routers.I'm hesitant to give performance figures. What I can say is that I have a large home. This router is located on the second story of my home, in the north most corner. I routinely connect on the first floor, on the south most corner, with excellent results.

If your only goals for it are connecting wirelessly with your phone, tablet, or laptop it should perform flawlessly.I tried to set it up as someone who is not too familiar with routers. The instructions that come with basically say to insert the included CD into your computer, plug the router into your computer, and then follow the prompts. This is what I did and the entire process was painless. Everything worked perfectly when I disconnected the cable and attempted to connect wirelessly. I then proceeded to add the router to my phone's wifi and my tablet's wifi. Everything connected without a hitch. The only surprise was the the process of setting up the router took about ten minutes. Granted almost all of that time was spent staring at my laptop waiting for the software to finish (no interaction required from me). Still... It took longer than expected.If you're familiar with good ol' 192.168.x.x then that works fine too. If that made no sense, don't worry about it, the included software takes care of everything for you.Personally, I feel that there is not much that is worth the premium price for the router. It's not that it's bad--it's just not amazing.Apparently, there is an Android app that is available that can also adjust settings but, for the life of me, I can't see how that's very useful. Instead, I wish it included a USB connector so I could print wirelessly. That's becoming a common feature in \"better than low end\" routers, these days.On the plus side, the setup software is easy and it's attractive. I like the internal antenna design and haven't noticed any degradation of signal compared to my other two routers (both with dual external antennas)."}]}, {"title": "B004XZHY34", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "How can you describe the voice?", "id": "8fc674fb8e6521eaf8c9ce4db82dc2c8", "answers": [{"text": "does", "answer_start": 9}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "Not only does this work very well as a speakerphone (with two microphones for better noise cancelling) but it can send anything from my phone via FM to my radio (I have an older car without a direct connect).

Especially switching back and fourth screens to switch from letter to numbers and other characters. This Keyboard Case had good and bad Amazon reviews. I took a chance and bought one. It works really well.  Keys are understandably smaller than a Standard Keyboard size, but functional. Can a good Typist smoothly type on this? Probably, but it is more for Hunt and Peck Typists like myself who seldom have both hands crowding the keyboard at the same time. Pros: Full Keyboard with individual Cut/Copy/and Paste buttons. And CD/DVD Play/Pause/FF/RR/Vol up/Vol down/Mute/Screen Brighter/Screen Dimmer/Home/and Search keys. Useful stuff. It has a left and a right Shift keys, BUT the right shift key is the same size as a standard letter key. That angered some reviewers. Me, I could care less cause I don't use that one anyhow.  It also has a DELETE key. BUT, it does not act like a Delete key. It does the exact same thing as the BACKSPACE key. Why they even included it if it wouldn't correctly Delete, is just wrongheaded. The complaints about the charging plugs for the keyboard and Ipad NOT fitting into their charging sockets when the case is closed doesn't apply to this model, because they DO both easily plug in when the case is closed. Trent must have modified the cutouts in the case to accommodate the plugs, because this no longer is an issue.  The Ipad instantly sleeps when the lid is closed so, no more shutting it off or turning it on. The Keyboard sleeps when not used for several minutes, and takes one or two key taps to awaken it again. On a single overnight charge, the keyboard lasts about 10-16 hours of heavy use, so, you need'nt charge it EVERY night for average daily couple hour keyboard usage.  I charge mine once every 4 or 5 days. A small green CHARGE light starts to flash, when it thinks it needs charging soon. Trent put this large CONNECT button on the top of the keyboard, as if it gets used often, but I only initially had to use it for it to find the Ipad. Haven't used it since. There is also a ON/Off switch, but I never use it, since the keyboard sleeps when not being used, and it uses very little juice while sleeping. There is even a Caps Lock LED at the top of the keyboard. It comes with a Key covering membrane sheet to protect the keys from coffee spills. It is removable, and easy to lose, so I don't use it.  I use a Stylus for Internet Browsing. The great thing about this case, is when you get ready to close it up, the track that the Ipad rested in, can now be used to store your stylus. The gap is wide enough to easily remove the stylus when ready.  The Keyboard Has up/down/left/right Arrow keys, but they don't scroll pages. But one thing they CAN do, unlike the Ipad keyboard, is simplify cursor movement left and right in a typed email or Document to correct spelling or typo errors. YAY. That alone is worth the price for this keyboard.  I highly recommend you put a screen protector film on your Ipad, and ditch the Keyboard membrane. It also supposedly protects the screen from the hard plastic keys when the case is closed, but a Screen Protector will do that, and no Membrane to lose. I also highly recommend you passcode protect the Ipad if you carry the case around a lot, here's why: When the case is closed and the Ipad if sleeping, and the keyboard is sleeping, if you squeeze the case, it presses down on the keyboard keys, which wakes up the Ipad and the Keyboard. The Keyboard gets bored after several minutes of no use, and goes back to sleep. But if the Ipad is not Passcode protected, it will remain on, and use battery juice. If it IS passcode protected, it will pop up a Passcode screen, and if you don't respond in 60 seconds, it goes back to sleep.  This is a really nice looking case. It has Leather-like accents. May be Leather, may not. Looks good. I get many compliments on this case. The Ipad part removes easily, for playing games, or reading ibooks. All Ipad Control buttons and camera are not obstructed by the case. I also recommend that if you are planning to use this case on a lap sitting in a chair, or in bed, get a lap table. One of those table like things with a Lap pad on the bottom, so the case has a flat, stable surface to rest on. Otherwise the Ipad will tip out of its Track in the keyboard case. There are 3 adjustable positions for Ipad tilt, to reduce overhead lighting glare.  For the price, this is a pretty good Product. It won't make your Ipad replace a Laptop Computer, but it outshines that dopey Touchscreen Keyboard that Apple forced us to use. And it is much cheaper, and better looking than the Keyboard case Apple sells.  Another thing I did, was buy the Yellow High-Glow Enlarged Keyboard Number/Letter stickers (from Amazon).  I had to trim every one down to fit, since they are for Standard sized Keys. But, in a very dark room I can now easily see the keys to type just from the glow of the Ipad screen at 3/4 Ipad brightness. Bigger, bolder letters and numbers.**** UPDATE 1 year later:  ****  This keyboard is starting to suck bigtime.  It double-strokes letters too often. And, too often, the letter keys I press while typing, do not register.  For some reason the Ipad spell check/correct does not work with this keyboard, so as I am typing along, I look back to see all the typing errors.  I am spending way too much time correcting, undetected typing errors.  Another thing,...when the keyboard was new, it was instantly recognized by the iPad. Nothing to initiate.  NOW, I have to go to settings in iPad, at startup, and manually connect the keyboard every time.  Also, the battery life of the keyboard after a full charge, is about 2 hours, before typing errors get really bad.There is no remaining charge time for the keyboard, so it's a crap shoot as to how much time is left, after standing by for any length of time.  I will be buying a better keyboard."}]}, {"title": "B00511PS3C", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "Do I have to use my phone?", "id": "f61dfa21199ee4fe4b86ed8ad9d0ecf1", "answers": [{"text": "can attest that the blue LED is extremely bright", "answer_start": 408}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "So, got this last night and was extremely glad it and the cable I purchased enabled me to use my phone GPS.

We only used them when on long trips.  Recently I wanted to start using them for shorter trips making the bulky laptop device inconvenient.  I purchased the Garmin because it has very good ratings and is very portable.  I also like the elevation option and how easily it can be selected.So on my first drive I enjoyed the map, the warnings and clear turn announcements.  It also gives a clear indication of upcoming interchanges and what lane you need to be in to get off on the correct ramp.  This the laptop software was not so great at.  It has so far tested very very well at navigation.  That is what we buy them for isn't it?  I also tested it for being able to track my movements, and it was right on.  The Speed indication is a pleasant surprise and it tells you in a moment that you are breaking the speed law.  It also gives a warning when you are approaching a Red Light Camera intersection.Things to be aware of are the maps are not completely up to date, but then most are not.  We have a couple Red Light Camera intersections in town that have existed for well over a year or two now and the Garmin did not know the cams are watching the traffic at a couple of them.  ALSO be sure to know where you are going and the route because they seem to ignore the ROUTE NUMBER and call some highways by a ROAD NAME, which I did not recognize.  In my area, the ROUTE NUMBER is used as the name, NOBODY KNOWS the road name and it isn't posted.  This is a major highway that GARMIN chose to call by a street name that I have never heard of.  To take this further, I was traveling south and the same problem with the ROUTE NUMBER being ignored came up.  I found some street names I was very unfamiliar with.Also, I drove by a couple of streets which used to be drive through but have been adapted to \"no exit\" or \"DEAD END\" roads for traffic control..This adaptation occurred years ago but the map does not indicate this.  I am not saying the Garmin unit is bad, AS a matter of fact, I really like it now that I know what to watch for.  But the map supplier seems lacking in some small cases.  I strongly suggest being aware of where you are going and possibly carry a map in case the Garmin gets you into something that it can't show a reality map for.One VERY HELPFUL THING  was when trying to program a favorite place.  ONE location I needed to save was very rurual so the map only shows a main road and not much else.  Find the approximate location where you want to find an address, tap the \"PLUS\" on the screen.  As as the map magnifies, it will start to show more roads .  Once your road comes up, tap along the road for the addresses.  It will only display one address at a time and you will be hunting for your address. If the address does not show, hit the PLUS and try again. Just keep tapping until the address you need comes up.  You may need to move up or down the road to find your address, when you do, save as your favorite.  This Garmin is new to me so this was unexpected as the screen shows nothing but a main road when the map is first accessed in rurual areas.  Keep in mind that if the road is not on the screen, tap the plus to get closer and it will appear.  Then tap for the address locations. I was really glad this function is available.  It will be really useful.My over all experience is good and I really like the portability and ease of programming favorites and such.  Get it and enjoy it but be aware of it's qwerks and you'll have a good travel adventure."}]}, {"title": "B0058UUR6E", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "What image had better brightness?", "id": "e48f7b3eed986efbf2d7b3596ad0cf11", "answers": [{"text": "brightness are great", "answer_start": 165}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "Got a pair of these, and I sit in front of them for far too many hours each day, mostly with browsers and spreadsheets, and a video here and there.

Aesthetically speaking, it's nice enough, with a slate-colored matte finish and a smooth feel that is not polished or slick, so that it will not inadvertently escape your grasp.I generally don't like any case (with or without a keyboard) that is intended to be used essentially as a permanent home for the ipad because the form factor and tactile experience of a naked ipad is so nice and enjoyable that it usually cheapens the experience when it's in a protective case. (For instance, the Otterbox cases cases certainly offer good protection, but it's such a chore to get the ipad secured into it in the first place that you never want to take it out --- so i actually got rid of my eexpensive Otterbox case.) The ipad snaps very easily and quickly in and out of place in the Airbender case, however. Even better, you can simply detach the iPad enclosure from the keyboard portion of the case and hold the iPad normally. This makes it easy to envision using the case on days when one is going to do a lot of typing, such as note-taking in meetings, but popping the case off when you want to sit with the ipad on your lap in the evening for some casual web browsing, facebook, or watching a movie, etc.Overall, I find this to be a nice product that is very competitively priced.PROS:- The keyboard responds well, connection via bluetooth is easy and fast, the battery life is on par with other similar products, and the fact that it allows for rotating the iPad to portrait mode is a nice plus.- It's great that you can utilize this case in so many different positions, with the iPad and keyboard each attached or detached, in portrait or landscape mode, etc.- Lightweight, and does not add a lot of additional bulk to the iPad.CONS:- My biggest complaint with this case is that I found the placement of the \"lock\" button on the small keyboard, just above the \"delete\" button to be a bit of a flaw. Far too often, when I tried to correct a misspelled word by using the delete button I mistakenly hit the lock button, and then had to stop typing, and unlock the ipad using the slider on the screen. Like all keyboard cases, it's a product best used by someone with hands small enough to successfully type on a compact keyboard."}, {"qas": [{"question": "How do you describe the case?", "id": "dd2c10cb6a5ab9747dce3841aa602a3d", "answers": [{"text": "Setup was a breeze", "answer_start": 155}, {"text": "The case is surprisingly light for its seemingly durable construction", "answer_start": 615}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "I just purchased the New Trent Airbender Keyboard Case for my iPad 3. Mostly bought it for the keyboard as I already own 2 cases one of which is the Pong. Setup was a breeze, barely had to look at the instructions. Mostly because I know when an accessory contains a battery, it should be brought up to full charge first. The User Guide is simple, easy to understand and use. Pairing the keyboard to the iPad bluetooth was straightforward and the connection is persistent when the case and iPad are separated and reunited.The feel of the keyboard is nice and even with my large hands the key size feels comfortable. The case is surprisingly light for its seemingly durable construction. Only time can test the actual durability but I have no initial concerns about this. The magnetic auto shutoff works great but you have to remember to keep the landscape orientation in the right direction. I rotated the case so that the charging cable could feed from the other direction and simply closed the case after use. I was surprised when I reopened the case and the battery was almost completely discharged. It took me a little while to realize what I had done. Easy lesson learned.I like the adjustability of the stand support but sometimes when it is in the case, it takes a little tweaking of the positions to get the iPad to sit solidly. A small price to pay for the flexibility of position choices. Bottom line, I bought this case for the keyboard, and to my surprise I received a light, durable case that gave me an incredible number of choices for positioning my iPad, even free standing. In this dimension AirBender surpassed my Pong Research case with its \"Origami\" design which I have found to be unstable in many of its orientations."}, {"qas": [{"question": "How was the case at that time?", "id": "2f61c9826816d722cedfd1c06bee264a", "answers": [{"text": "Airbender v1.0 is still a nice case and has features that excel when compared with some of its competitors many of which cost more", "answer_start": 1217}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "Initial thoughts: The v1.0 of the Airbender while a capable case, lacks some of the features of its v2.0 counterpart.  Namely a rubberized/anti-slip external surface and a more complete structure for surrounding the iPad, including a screen protector.  However, in a closed position, the iPad is enclosed in the case.A major feature which I’ve found lacking in other manufacturer’s options is the full keyboard with two shift keys.  For anyone who has any typing skills, a singular shift key will frustrate you after a very short time.The Airbender v1.0 like v2.0 has the ability to tilt the screen at various angles.  One feature that is present in v1.0 and not in v2.0 is the very pronounced groves to rest the iPad in while fully opened.  There are two groves that can accommodate various viewing angles.Additionally the iPad can be rotated between landscape and portrait to accommodate varied applications.The LED’s for CAPS, CHRG and BT are very bright and serve their purpose well.  By comparison, other cases I’ve used have very dim LEDs making it very difficult to see if one is illuminated.Final thoughts: I give the Airbender v1.0 a rating of 4/5.  While lacking a few features, the Airbender v1.0 is still a nice case and has features that excel when compared with some of its competitors many of which cost more.  With the rotatable screen, various viewing angles and the full keyboard, this case is quite functional."}, {"qas": [{"question": "How was the case at that time?", "id": "7caaecd819cfbd760eede0bab4f40fb9", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "1.

This one was slightly cheaper (I paid $18.95) and still had free Super Saver Shipping when I bought a micro SD card at the same time.Case fits well, and makes all the difference as far as holding the tablet. Without a case, the tablet is somewhat \"slick\", feeling like it is easier to let slip from the hands. The case fixes all that (as I imagine most cases would). The crease that allows the front flap to fold is in the perfect spot for the thumb to nestle into when gripping.All cutouts were good, especially the one for the camera and LED in back (stylish, shaped cut-out, yet plenty of room for the camera lens). At first I thought the basic fold/insert way of holding the tablet in would not be enough, but it is. The tablet feels very secure and snug once the internal flap is folded around the tablet -- the friction works well.The case closes by using four magnets, two of which are embedded in the part of the case close to the tablet. I had heard that some case magnets interfere with GPS/compass operations. This was not the case for me. For compass apps that only use magnetism, I think this may be true true, at least to some extent, but for full-on GPS, the magnets and case do not appear to cause any issues. I fired up GPS Status after not having used GPS for several weeks, and satellites started becoming visible almost immediately. With A-GPS assistance, I had between 7 and 11 locked in under a minute (I was outside under a clear sky but still in Wi-Fi range from my house). So, GPS and wireless definitely work fine and I have not noticed any degradation since putting the tablet in this case.So, why only 4 stars? Well, the stand functionality leaves a little to be desired. First of all, the plastic slot in back where the leather flap is meant to insert (to create the stand) is very inflexible. So, it is hard to get the flap inserted, and the leather has to deform a bit to get in there. I have not seen any blemishes on the case, but I imagine that over time the flap might warp a bit, and/or if the leather smooths it might pop out of the slot. Also, trying to stand up such a small tablet (7-inch) is a bit wobbly in this case, but that is mostly due to the nature of the folds being so close together and the leather still being fairly rigid.Overall, though, a great case for the price. I like the stylish white stitching, and the case is well-built.  And like I said, several cases are sold in the 20-25 dollar range, so it is nice that this one clocks in at below $19 (though that price is subject to change, I suppose...)"}]}, {"title": "B005SEZR0G", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "How to learn a book and look brightness?", "id": "fd291ebf7c2d25ac26c5e6fe2188382f", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "I purchased this monitor so I can work on my dissertation at the library with two monitors (this one and a laptop).

It picks up stations within the distance specified (actually a little further) and along the orientation direction.

Often I use the two-way audio to give them commands.  The original setup was not that difficult if you follow the instructions.  On my network it has a static IP and port mapping allows me to make it available over the Internet.The night vision works well, but does tend to see-through certain thin clothing.  This isn't a big issue, but it is worth noting that it may not be appropriate in some use cases.  During the day the color tends to falter leaving it a little washed out.My experience is that at 12 feet in darkness you can no longer distinguish between objects 1-2 inches in size.  To frame this, if you put a $1 bill on the floor next to a $20 bill you would struggle to identify which is which.  At 20 feet in darkness you will lose edge definition on items.  Anything beyond tends to reach the limit of the infrared range.In bright light you will add a couple of feet to each of the measures above.  The reason for mentioning this is that you may not want to locate the camera in a ceiling where it is inherently 10-12 feet away from any relevant objects.  Also, the camera as pictured with the product has the base pointed down.  To gain the most range of freedom you will want to mount the camera upside-down and flip the rotational axis.  This is supported in the software.The video recording features do not appear to work on my firmware.  The snapshot features require you to login before they work.  I had planned to have the stills grabbed every couple of minutes available to the public and the pan/tilt adjustments requiring a password.  To get around this I had to setup a PHP script to authenticate and store the images on a server.  Then people can access the images without logging in.The audio quality of the microphone is reasonable.  The speaker on the camera is poor and I highly recommend that when mounting the camera you add a set of powered speakers available on Amazon for cheap.The only downside is that there is an upper limit on concurrent viewers on the camera.  After five concurrent viewers the camera tends to become non-responsive to commands through the GUI.  The second camera of the same model with the newer firmware does not have this same issue.  Regardless, I highly recommend this camera and have recommended it to friends.When it finally goes up to 1080p or 720p my goal is to upgrade these units."}, {"qas": [{"question": "How long was the construction?", "id": "8787ded36c2d0c5b8332fbf3a1008042", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "Wireless works well on it, gets a good signal. 802.11gI have had mine up for awhile now and have not had one issue with it.

It gives her peace of mind to be able to watch over the dogs during off-hours.  For $65 with Amazon Prime free shipping, this was something that I could afford to buy as a donation and the rescue is making excellent use of them.I installed \"IP Camera Viewer 2\" on her Mac, from the Mac App Store - and \"Foscam Viewer\" on her iPad.  Both apps were free and work great (although the Mac app doesn't support audio from this camera, it's still a great free app).I did review the lengthy negative app regarding issues some users have had with the camera.  I take reports like this with a grain of salt - First, it's an inexpensive camera - I don't expect MILSPEC hardware, and I'm willing to make a gamble at this price, as compared to other IP cameras that cost a LOT more.  Second, working in the customer support industry I know a lot of minor issues can get blown WAY out of proportion by a small group of vocal on-line users.

I wanted something that I could view remotely from my desktop at work and my iPhone4.  I had done quite a bit of searching around for a solid IP camera before I settled on this.  I had looked at d-link, tenvis, wanscam, and others.  However, none of those had the number of views that Foscam had or the number of helpful setup tips.  Soo after long deliberation I decided this was reasonable to get even after I had some concerns related to reviews and security.  To break it down further -What I like:+Price+Size of the camera (It is not an extremely large camera by any means.  Good to keep \"hidden\" in a tight location)+IR cut (Adds a more realistic color.  Not washed out.  Take a look at AwkwardHamster's youtube video comparing other foscam models)+Accessing the camera remotely (It's good once you get pass the setup portion, which I explain in my comments)+Picture quality - Good (Don't expect it to be the sharpest quality.  You are not going to see a hair on the ground 5 feet away.  If you are expecting long distance use with this camera don't expect amazing quality images)+Wide variety of settingsWhat I didn't like:-Power cord (~3ft, who does that?)-Reviews, a bit off topic but I want to make a comment about all of them.  Now I didn't like that so many reviews on Amazon start off by saying \"I couldn't get my camera to connect so I contacted 'insert name here' from Foscam.  They connected the cameras in no time and were extremely helpful'.  At the time of this review 703 similar statements.  Now I find this somewhat fishy that 703 comments are similar.  It seems to me that it is a modified template for comments.  I can't say whether these statements are true or not but just keep it in mind that some if not all may be false comments.  Just my 2 cents.-Minimal information on remote DNS providers.  DNS provider - used to access camera outside of your home network.-Security encryption.  From what I have read in other comments this camera has no security when you try and remotely access this camera.  If you attempt to access it remotely your username/password is sent in \"Plain Text\".  This means if you use public wifi your password can be \"sniffed\" out.  Now this might of concern to some and others it's no big deal.  So I suggest for some to do more research on how to access your camera securely.  I personally plan on setting up the camera for viewing through a VPN (virtual private network).  I haven't done it yet but the goal is to purchase a router that has VPN capability and install tomato or dd-wrt.Stuck between like/don't like:>Camera setup.  This is a tough one.  Many people say turn away from this camera unless you have a degree in computer science because it is almost impossible to setup.  This is not necessarily true if you find the right steps online.  I didn't follow the owners manual for the setup or use the CD the camera came with.  I followed one reviewers steps and I got the camera up and running in no time.Camera Setup:I followed \"R. Tickle's\" instructions from March 29, 2012 to set the camera up.  Here is what he used with slight modifications and explanations that may make it easier for some.1) Do NOT install the software on the CD.  The CD is used to try and find the camera.  On my first attempt to access my camera I did toss the CD in and install the software, but unfortunately I was left with a blank text box with no camera IP.  The manual said I should reinstall the software so I did.  That didn't work so I decided to find it using my router web login explained below.2) Connect the camera by Cat-5 wire to your router.  My camera came with a coiled up cat-5 cable.  You shouldn't have to go searching for one.3) Login to your router (via browser, for linksys it is 192.168.1.1) and find the IP address assigned to your camera.  This should be fairly easy to do especially if you have the Linksys smart router.  Navigate to your connected devices and copy the cameras IP address.4) Login to the camera at that IP address (via browser) and IMMEDIATELY turn OFF the DHCP.  Copy and Paste the IP address for the camera into a new blank tab and hit enter.  This should take you to the foscam page that shows activex, server push mode, and mobile phone.  If you use IE select activex, firefox/chrome use server push mode.  Selecting one of those will give you a pop-up for username/password.  The default username/password is : Username-admin, there is no password.  Once you get in you can navigate to \"Basic Network Settings\"  and uncheck DHCP.5) Give your camera a fixed IP address on your network and fill in the subnet mask with what you normally use.  This step is pretty simple.  You can assign your camera an IP address.  I used the IP it was initially assigned except I changed the last three numbers xxx.xxx.x.151.  Next you want to fill in the subnet mask, which can be found in your router settings or I believe it mostly is 255.255.255.0 (per google search of course).  Enter in your gateway IP and DNS server IP (you will use the same IP address for both of these.  you can find this IP address from your router login page in maybe a \"local networks\" tab it should be the IP address of your router).  The last thing you can fill in is the HTTP port.  Select a four digit number such as \"5252\".  Remember this because it will be used to setup port forwarding.  Now hit SUBMIT and wait for the camera to reboot.  Now that you have your IP address for your camera nailed down you may wish to go into your router and assign the IP camera a static IP address.  This ensures another device will not accidentally take your foscam IP address.6) Fill in the SSID, encryption type, and share key used by your wireless network.  Hit SUBMIT, this will reboot the camera.  Now you you can unplug the camera from your router.  ***NOTE*** I have found that once you enable wireless on the camera it may take some time to actually connect to your wifi network.  So if you reboot your camera be patient (more than 1 minute patient).  Watch the camera for the green LED to have a steady and consistent blink.  Any hesitation in blinking means it has not connected yet.7) Re-login to the camera at the new fixed IP address to verify that everything's working and your settings have stayed.8) Login to your router and set a port-forwarding entry to map to the fixed IP address and HTTP port you gave your camera.  You will also have to enter in the device IP address, the one you just gave the camera.9) Now in order to access the camera remotely you will need a DDNS service.  Foscam now recommends \"no-ip\" for free DNS instead of dydns.  Do a google search for it.  Create an account.  Foscam has their own service free for 3 years but after that you will have to pony up some money.  No-ip is free but and has one downfall, every 30 days you will need to say you will keep the DNS assigned to you.  I haven't had the service for more than 30 days, but from what I have found online you receive an email and have to navigate to a link that is in the email.  I guess this is the price you pay for a free service.10) Go back to your camera settings.  Select DDNS Service Settings then Select third party DDNS drop down and find no-ip.  Enter your username and password.  This is the information you used on the no-ip site to create an account.  Finally you will want to enter in the ddns host.  This is what you set up to be your camera website/host.  Example:  mycamera01(dot)no-ip(dot)biz.  Sorry about the dots, trying to avoid having information blocked.  Now click SUBMIT and wait for the camera to reboot.11) Now try and access your camera using your new host.  You can try this from 3G/4G to make sure you can connect outside your home network.  Open browser tab and enter in all the host information.  Using my example: mycamera01(dot)no-ip(dot)biz:5252.  If you notice I entered  :5252  after the host name.  This is because we changed it earlier in step 5.12) You now should be able to connect remotely.  Since the hard part is done go and change your username and password to the camera if you haven't done that yet.I hope these steps help lower the frustration of setting up this camera.My final comment!!IP Camera APPS. I mentioned earlier that I had an iPhone and wanted to access the cameras for remote viewing.  After much searching I decided to download \"LiveCams Pro\" right now $3.99 in the appstore.  I selected it after seeing others recommend it and seeing all the cameras they support.  I may or may not want a different camera manufacturer such as d-link and the app supports them.  However, this is not the only app available, Foscam has an app (not free) that you can download.  From what I have found it works well but other than that I haven't had experience with it.I will update with my opinion of the camera as time goes on.  Feel free to check back in a few months."}]}, {"title": "B00728ZBA2", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "Is the tv in silent mode?", "id": "521fdeff030143e5614ba85ccd40f223", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "I tried the models that directly compete with this camera from Canon, Sony, and Nikon and much to my surprise, overall, this camera was superior in almost all areas that matter most to me.  That would be the quality and flexibility of the video, the quality of the optical image stabilization, and the overall quality of the still pictures it takes.  I didn't care about the GPS as it is largely a gimmick in my opinion and all the major competitors have it now or they feel they won't be able to compete.You should realize that the GPS built into this camera (and most cameras) is NOT the same GPS you may be used to in your car or smart phone.  It does not have detailed maps, does not have a large database of places or landmarks, and is not as accurate.  It is basically for tagging your photos and videos with the latitude and longitude of where you took the image so you don't have to take notes manually to sort out what you shot and where later.  That's why I consider it largely a gimmick.Briefly then, this camera had by far, the best video quality and flexibility.  You can select AVCHD video in several quality levels including full HD at 1920 x 1080 @ 60 fps (if your computer can handle it--many can't), MP4 video in several quality settings including full HD 1920 x 1080 @ 30 fps, and even a (not too useful) 320 x 240 setting for high-speed video at 240 fps.FOR TECHIES ONLY: Note that most of these video settings output progressive video but one of them outputs interlaced (can't remember which AVCHD setting).  This makes me suspicious that the internal video circuitry may be interlaced and not progressive and they simply convert (deinterlace) the video when they create the progressive video file on the memory card.  I could not find confirmation on this anywhere and calling Panasonic support is utterly useless for something this technical--they just aren't trained to know such things.  I must say though that I didn't notice any interlaced artifacts or sharpness/quality issues with the video so I'm satisfied with the video either way.The optical image stabilization is absolutely amazing and was so far superior to the Nikon for example, that I had to keep checking that I actually had the image stabilization in the Nikon turned on!  You can literally hand-hold the camera at full 20x zoom (being very deliberate and careful) and shoot acceptable video, which is almost unheard of in a small camera like this.The still images are very high quality and have relatively low noise for a camera that has this many pixels in the sensor.  Most consumers don't realize that it's mostly the marketing departments that want to keep pushing the number of pixels in these small cameras.  The engineers know that when you put this many pixels on a small sensor, you get more noise artifacts and you can do only so much about that.  This camera is no different in that regard than all the others that are 14 or higher megapixels, regardless of what they claim in their marketing hype.And the final selling point over some of the competitors for me was that this camera, even with all its consumer \"presets\" to make this a \"point-and-shoot\" camera (actually almost too many--confusing!) still has FULL MANUAL CONTROLS and aperture or shutter priority settings for \"real\" photographers.Note that like most other pocket cameras, this one does not support RAW files but that's not what it is intended for.  Furthermore, with single images files as large as almost 13 MB in size from the 14.1 megapixel sensor, you have more than enough pixels to do some serious Photoshop work even without having RAW files to work with.This will now be my \"take everywhere\" camera when I don't need to do \"serious\" photography and don't want to lug around my full sized Canon DSLR and lenses."}]}, {"title": "B0074BW614", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "Is a speakers  a light thing?", "id": "c119d8fb637e9e74652f5ba53875e0e1", "answers": [{"text": "light feature is awesome", "answer_start": 308}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "I've gotten accustomed to having the web on the go with the free 3G service, however the HD doesn't support it so boo hoo hoo.And how is it possible for me to buy a book yet I cant download a video nor a game because its not offered in my geographic area???!!! !!!WHAT!!!Because Iove to read in bed the back-light feature is awesome.

Curiously, the content of the network players ran just fine the first time I accessed them until the update notice popped up. After several flash player update failures, the browser refused to run any flash enabled ABC network content except for the introductory ads.  Other folks have had problems accessing any internet content requiring latest flash player.  What is odd is that I had access until I attempted to update.  As mention by others, the web browser is clunky and manipulating a TV remote to access its features is frustrating.

For me, the pros did not outweigh the cons with this one.It easily doubles the weight of the iPad (generations 2 and 3 are sized and weigh the same), making it cumbersome to handle and carry. I can see why people and their kids are dropping it with this thing on, and the solid heavy weight and bulk it created made it more prone to being knocked around in my bag. In fact, it barely fit into my bag with this thing on. I mean, it's thicker than my MacBook! This is because the shield (that doubles as a stand) juts out about half an inch to keep the stand inside from resting against your screen when you have it on to travel.  In terms of weight and size, I would say it's the difference between lugging around a heavy hardback book (and trying to stuff that in my bag) instead of having just a slim trade size paperback (as with a folio case).The other thing I disliked about the shield/stand thing was that I found it difficult and noisy to remove and set up.  You've got to pry the shield off corner by corner by either bracing the iPad against something or pulling the shield in one direction and pushing the iPad in another.  I was having to do it all the time, (which just made it more likely that I'd drop it) and there was also always this obnoxious creaking/clicking sound as i did it.  That sort of thing bothers me because---okay this will probably piss off some of the over zealous reviewers but, I wouldnt want to draw any more attention than the case already does on it's own, as it is embarrassingly overprotective and makes your iPad seem like some mysterious giant tablet or you know, like some kind of fisher price tablet... .i mean, i know some reviewers are saying that people often admire their otter cases and ask about them...but I think it's more like they're admiring your giant Fire and thinking wow, the Fire really IS like the iPad!  Maybe I should get one...  Maybe it loosens up after a while, but the design is so solid that this seems unlikely. It won't bother you if you only use the shield as a stand or to travel, but the screen protector is just a clear sheet of plastic like any other screen protector so I guess I just prefer to have the sort of cover that I can just close over the iPad like a book cover when i carry it around casually.All that aside, the case is still nice and the fit is PERFECT, but I think it's overkill unless you actually need this sort of protection---like if you have little kids that will be using it, or you use it in a job where it'll be abused on a daily basis--otherwise there are plenty of cases out there that fit just as nice but are more convenient (not to mention better looking).  This also isn't the sort of case you will want to be taking on and off; it's difficult to remove so you can't just switch to this one for work/travel and use a more comfortable one for at home."}]}, {"title": "B007PA1K84", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "How is the case?", "id": "0100d40d015a66cf908dfffef53f51df", "answers": [{"text": "The case is great", "answer_start": 9}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "The good:The case is great for the more upright positions.

I don't think it is that thin.The plastic case makes it harder to use the volume buttons, but I don't use them all that often.I don't like the way that the case/cover unfolds to the point where half the bottom is detached. In other words, if you lift the ipad by holding the cover, the back/bottom doesn't have much support.For the price, I would have shopped around more.

This portion concerns the 128 GB version of this card:I don't need a fast card, so the speeds on this card were not that important, besides which my test PC is not exactly high-end. Therefore I didn't count off for the speed results I got below, using a USB 2.0 card adapter, but I thought they might be relevant to some readers. While the card did reach the Class-10 and/or UHS-I requirements, it came in at under 2/3 of the claimed \"read speeds up to 30 MB/s for fast file transfer.\"  Then again, running on a second PC using a different USB 2.0 card reader, none of the speeds even hit 5 MB/s, so this seems to be highly system-dependent.I only just got the card this week, and so far it works on *select* SDXC-compatible devices and exFAT-compatible operating systems:  some SDXC-compatible devices, such as the Panasonic HDC-TM40, do not allow cards larger than 64 GB (for whatever reason); this was stated in the manual, and I've confirmed this card is recognized as broken/corrupt/unusable in that device, whereas 64 GB exFAT cards work fine.  The 128 GB works fine (with original exFAT formatting) in my Toshiba Excite 7.7 Android tablet, and (predictably) not at all in my non-SDXC-compatible Galaxy Note 2 (though it possibly would if reformatted to FAT32, since a 64 GB card in FAT32 works fine there).I'll update my review to reflect any problems, issues, etc that I notice in the coming days & weeks.-----------------------------------------------------------------------CrystalDiskMark 3.0.3 (C) 2007-2013 hiyohiyoCrystal Dew World : [url removed as per Amazon rules]-----------------------------------------------------------------------* MB/s = 1,000,000 byte/s [SATA/300 = 300,000,000 byte/s]Sequential Read : 18.694 MB/sSequential Write : 11.921 MB/sRandom Read 512KB : 18.502 MB/sRandom Write 512KB : 0.680 MB/sRandom Read 4KB (QD=1) : 3.339 MB/s [ 815.1 IOPS]Random Write 4KB (QD=1) : 1.581 MB/s [ 386.1 IOPS]Random Read 4KB (QD=32) : 3.151 MB/s [ 769.4 IOPS]Random Write 4KB (QD=32) : 1.564 MB/s [ 381.8 IOPS]Test : 1000 MB [G: 0.0% (0.0/119.1 GB)] (x5)Date : 2014/04/24 16:53:49OS : Windows XP Professional SP3 [5.1 Build 2600] (x86)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The following is my original review of the 64 GB version of this card, published April 24, 2013:This is a high-quality card.  I've used it in a variety of devices, through multiple readers on different pcs, in an HD camcorder using a micro to full-sized SD adapter, and I've never once had a problem with it.  It even works at full capacity in *some* microSDHC-only devices once its reformatted to FAT32 (such as my SanDisk Clip+ FLAC player and supposedly even PSPs via a proper adapter, though I haven't yet tested my PSP).  I keep anticipating someone coming out with a card with equal or better capacity and speeds at a comparable price, but I haven't seen one yet.  If these were cheaper, I'd have several by now.Make sure your device can handle micro or full-sized SDXC cards, or is one of those rare gems that state they support only as high as SDHC but have been tested to work with SDXC cards such as this one once they've been manually reformatted to FAT32."}, {"qas": [{"question": "How is that thing?", "id": "7340fd755e5a0cfd006961c64acf3437", "answers": [{"text": "This product is perfect", "answer_start": 0}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "This product is perfect for what I needed it for.

I did not because of the way Amazon markets the case on their site probably clarifies what you are buying. The key here is THINNESS!  And many people love a thin LIGHT case. Amazon designed this case to be the thinnest, and Amazon may very well have achieved that.  I think this is a good thing. So good, that I have given this case 5 stars.  Just know, you are buying thin.5 stars for thin and protective case... about half an inch with the FireHD 8.9.  (hard to measure, I need calipers!). I will tell you why I think some of the one star ratings are given...and they fall in two areas: One, the case looks cheap when you see the lower half inside. Two, the case can not be propped at a low angle to one's desk and still type well on it. We will look at both of these items... there are, I am sure, other reasons for low rankings, some due to perceptions of \"a good case.\"First, everyone has (perhaps) their own perceptions of what a good case is:  My brother has a big Otterbox case (sturdy, shock resistant case) on his thin cell phone. I do not... I have a thin, easy to grip case. Why? Is it because I don't want my phone (and tablet) protected?  Sure I do.  But I am an adult, and I know how to take care of things. The case is there, just in case. :) But, I don't need to protect it to the level of an OtterBox case, in my view.  So that is my preference. If this is not your preference, you are going to hate this thin, beautiful case.Amazon advertises thin, and they deliver thin. And I agree with those who think if they wanted a one inch thick case around their tablet, they would have a netbook or similar, not a tablet (since tablets should be thin and light).  But... but... but... (you may object)...Yes, I know. This case doesn't look like a 50 bucks+ case.  In fact, many have said it is not even leather. I don't know for certainty, but I don't doubt that it is leather. But let me describe the construction and you will see. And why does the bottom half look like it is just plastic!? Read on.The case is a very light plastic shell... and this very thin shell can be seen on the inside of the lower half, so the perception is cheapness. But, the question should be, what is the purpose of this case and what is being accomplished by this plastic? In short, it is providing needed protection and absorbtion for drops around every square inch of the tablet... notice the complete wrap around, form-fitting shape on the bottom half.  Look closely at the bottom half, which has been structured to fit the Fire HD 8.9 like a glove, with perfectly cut openings and stylish design), on the outside of this casing is a wrap around leather covering. Once your tablet is in this case, you never see the plastic, as it is holding your Fire HD 8.9. Then, on top of the shell is a thin, very thin, leather covering that looks like it has been steam fit and glued on top of the plastic. Then a black thread has sewn the edges down so I doubt it would ever come loose.  By necessity then, the leather is not soft to the touch, since it is attached to a plastic shell.  But, it is very likely leather and the reason some think it is all plastic is because of the shell material.The sizing to the actual Kindle Fire HD is what is so amazing.  The bottom of the plastic case just snaps over the bottom of the Fire and then the top lays on the glass of the tablet. Magnets (with Auto Wake and Sleep) keep the case shut (though it might not be good enough to stay shut in a fall).THIN AND LIGHT?Now, I purchased a Moko Case from Amazon too. It was thin, as was my preference.  My Moko Case is about 5/8 of an inch with tablet). This case is 1/2 inch, plus maybe a tad more than half an inch. But, clearly, this case is thinnest of any case that I have seen.Is it lightest?  IT IS NOT. My Moco case is lighter, even though it is tad thicker. Why?  This Amazon case wraps completely around the entire tablet (it doesn't leave any edges exposed. My Moco case does. Still, the slightly thicker padding on the Moco probably provides a bit more protection... but who knows... I am not going to drop test. :) Suffice it to say they are both thin and light weight. One a tad more than the other in each area.THE STAND:The stand on this case has been where many people have commented. Here is my take.First, the stand does work well.  It may not be the best if you like to type on your tablet in a standing mode (as finger pressure would certainly knock the stand over on some surfaces).Remember thin? Well, one thing that makes many cases thicker is the stand mechanism.  Make the stand (or base) too thick and it adds bulk. Make it too thin and it just doesn't stay up.  So, this was the design challenge.  Amazon went with a LACK OF A BASE for their stand.... as well as a lack of a Kick-0ut stand mechanism.  How does it work?  Simple, just fold it over and let the case form a A shape that supports the tablet to stand. Oh, I can hear it now. \"That won't work reliably!\"  Well, what they did is make the outer edge side out of a sticky, rubbery material, so that when you prop it opens, it holds quite nicely.  This saves them a lot of weight and thickness. Some don't like it... but I imagine it is people that want to type on the tablet with it propped up in standing position. I think that if the feet are kept fairly clean, they will grab onto any descent surface and hold the tablet upright... and at about any angle that you want.I like this case. I like the design. I like the thinness. The jury still out on the stand (over time) and the magnetic closure (during a potential fall).  I can't do less than five stars, because it does everything it states. Yes, I like my Moco case a bit better, but I bet this case will still be going strong long after my Moco case needs to be replaced.  And now I have a wonderful replacement.JJI will update this review over time.Update: One con is the interior material of the case (the part that hits the screen)...it is not super-soft Micro-fiber cloth, rather a thin cloth that doesn't scratch the screen. A Microfber cloth interior might help keep the screen cleaner, but it would have added thickness. I have seen one reviewer say that cat hairs stick to it. I have not had that problem, and we do have a cat.Update: Price vs. Quality.  Boy, I really wanted to stay out of this discussion. Everyone has their own comfort level with price, so I just try to review the product. But yes, if you are looking at cases in the sub-20 market, this case is pricey in comparison. But, I doubt that anyone who wanted the features of this case, would then think the given price was too much to pay. Key features again?Protective covering that covers the entire tabletConnects to the tablet all the way around, so it isn't going to pop out.Very thin (the thinnest?) and exceedingly lightExtremely easy to open, use, get access to all ports... and even easy to remove, if needed... all while being thin and attractiveLove the wonderful design for the volume rocker and power button. Nice design makes these a breeze to use (unlike my cell phone case).Leather coating (though not soft) seems durable and easy to grip.Speaker vents are perhaps the best I have seen on any case... it doesn't limit sound.Stand is simple and quick to use, because it uses a rubbery material that simply clings to most (but not all) material (I have tried on wood and formica top desks, table cloth, papers on top of a desk (not as good, but works), glass top tables, and wood and ceramic floors). The only time this failed was when I had it on the side of some rubbermaid containers... slipped on that slicker, dustier surface). You can get a nearly straight up position fairly readily, the only real issue is with a low angle such some people like for typing on a tablet. If the surface isn't ideal, the tablet will simply slip down to the table (flat), when you try to type. The benefit is that you have just about every other angle (degree) that you might want to have. That is great if your trying to avoid a glare on the screen, for instance."}]}, {"title": "B00829THK0", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "How many radio collection do you have?", "id": "66e2de7dc9ee895b640073c54e885a83", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "As most of the reviewers has already commented on the characteristics of the drive I will keep my review simple and mentioned that I agree with most of the reviewers about the super speedy response of this drive.

No more. This camera can take shots as good -and sometimes better- as my trusted DSLR.Take a look at my sample shots at [...]PORTABILITYThis camera fits in my hand, in my pocket and in my laptop bag. In fact, I am using the case for my wife's Lumix TZ8. I can bring this camera with me anywhere.One big advantage is safety: if you travel to places that are not 100% safe, any potential robber would mistake it with a cheap $200 camera. More importantly, you will nevr have to leave this camera in a hotel room, on the trunk of your car, or will have to carry a big backpack with camera and accessories.Why this is size so important? You miss 100% of the shots you can't take because you cannot bring your camera. Because this is a camera you will carry anywhere. There have been many business trips, weekend opportunities and just in the moment photo opportunities where it was not practical or safe to bring my big DSLR. That is no longer a problem with a portable camera like this that gives me all the quality and control I need as an experienced photographer.The only downside to size it that it looks pretty ridiculous to have this camera mounted on a tripd (as I did last night taking skyline shots at dusk) and that you don't have the `professional' look of sdomeone carrying a large camera with a big lens, which sometimes is useful getting access to normally unavailable areas for tourists.QUALITYSony has been improving the quality of its digital cameras steadily for the last few years.  In February of 2011 I got a HX5V which was quite impressive, and delivered quality images even when compared with a DSLR except for low-light and other tricky situations. I traded it for a Canon PowerShot S95 which was a step ahead but still suffered from high noise levels in low light settings.What makes this camera unique is a 1\" CMOS sensor. It is the only camera in this class or in similar size with a sensor this big. The law of physics is very simple: larger sensor, higher quality and lower noise. Sure you could get a NEX-5 with an even bigger sensor for slightly better quality but you would be stuck with a much, much larger camera, especially because of the size of the lens, and a much higher price.Combined with a minimum aperture of f/1.8, Carl Zeiss optics and a lot of cool features from Sony such as the Auto HDR and very cool camera effects, it is an amazing camera. After a week of playing with it I am wondering why would the average person need anything more than this camera.Last, I really love the on-screen information (and the quality of the display), especially the level indicator that helps you shoot straight pictures.EASE OF USEDon't let the power scare you away from this camera. As most point and shoot cameras, this one has an `auto' mode that is usually quite good at getting the right settings for each shot. If you ar enot an expert, you will feel at home with the Sony RX100 camrea having used any pocket digital camera, and you will enjoy the high quality it delivers.I found the menus to be intuitive, the camera feels solid and built with high quality materials.AREAS OF IMPROVEMENTProcessing speed takes a few seconds, but given the quality of the effects I would be surprised if they took significantly less time. Still, often you have to wait a second or two after a shot if you use advanced in-camera processing such as HDR.The 3.6 Zoom goes to 105mm I think, which is fine for most situations but could be nice to have a 200mm 9equivalent) zoom. I know adding such a zoom would require a larger lens so I rather keep the portability as is. Further, with 20 megapixels, you can zoom in to your photos easily in post production.Overall, if you are an experienced hobbyist or a semi-professional photographer looking for a camera to take always with you, or a backup/alternative to your big clunky DSLR, don't look any further.

It took a while to set up, but it's so feature packed that I have a tough time deciding between this and my old router (a more expensive Netgear WNDR3700).What's good:- It has dual band 2.4 and 5.0 ghz data, which lets you run your older devices on 2.4, then reserve 5.0 for video streaming and data intensive uses.  The speed is good.  Downloads go great, and I can watch HD video over the internet without a hiccup.- It has two usb ports that you can use to hook a usb printer, hard drive, or even data stick to your local area network or even to set up an internet enabled ftp server.- The administration page is pretty straightforward, and comes with a lot of features, like parental controls or \"QoS,\" a feature that lets you allocate more bandwidth to your more important applications.- If you're into third party firmware, it looks like it's compatible with openwrt and dd-wrt, although I haven't tried it, so use with caution.- After upgrading to the newest firmware, this is the most customizeable router I've seen.-- With the new firmware, it does have a guest mode, which allows my house guests to get on the net without accessing my LAN or getting a password.  Better yet, this router allows me to limit the amount of bandwidth available to guests!  I'm not that mean, but I appreciate the option.  ;-)-- The firmware allows me to adjust the wireless width on the 2.4 gHz channel - the first time I've ever seen that, and I'm looking forward to see if it increases range and throughput.What could be better:- Even after maximizing wireless width, this still doesn't have as much range as I hoped.  It's good in my house, but the 2.4 range is still weak in my yard, compared to my previous router.- One very minor complaint is that the router is not very attractive - big antennae and an angry blueberry salad of blinking lights make this look like something that should be hidden in a closet someplace.Set-up tips:- I didn't have much luck with the mini-cd, but opening a browser window to the administration page (192.168.0.1) got me in with no trouble, and the \"quick setup\" did most of what I needed.- TP-Link recommends a complete powerdown after setting up.  Power down your cable modem, router, and computer, wait two minutes, then power them on in the same order, waiting for each one to boot fully before starting the next one.  After I did that, it worked without a hitch.- I'm running firmware version 3.13.31, released March 9, 2013.It took me a good half hour to set up the way I wanted, but now I like it quite a bit.

The kit Lens that came with my camera is completely silent, and I have yet to hear any camera noise picked up hen shooting video, even in quiet, indoor shoots. I bought this lens for the same purpose, as well as shooting photos, as it is a great focal length for video, and the low aperture is great for low-light photos. Here are my conclusions:For Photos: This lens is incredible. The pictures are razor sharp, and when you shoot with the aperture wide open, the bokeh effect you can achieve is really cool and makes for some beautiful, intriguing photos. The autofocus is quick and responsive, allowing you to quickly frame and shoot. The only downside to this lens is since there is no Image Stabilization, you have to be very steady when shooting hand-held, especially if you get below 1/100th shutter. Adjusting the settings, you can usually find a clear shot, it just may take some toying. On a tripod, you have nothing to worry about, obviously. This was definitely a good purchase for photos.For Videos: The quality of video produced by this lens is great. It lets in some serious light with the f/2.8 aperture, so you can do some good low-light shoots. The focal length is ideal for most video applications, but the lack of zoom does make for some walking around to frame the shot properly. The downside with this lens when compared to the STM 18-55mm is that the autofocus motor makes some noise. I was used to complete silence with STM lenses, and this one, although quiet, can still be picked up, especially when shooting with the internal mic. It's nothing compared to a non-stm lens, which are much louder, but it is audible and can be picked up in quiet shoots. Not a huge deal, but it is worth noting, if this lens is being purchased with that function in mind. If you are using any kind of external micing, you should be fine.Pros:Crisp, good color, fast autofocus, solid construction, light-weight, small form factorCons:Autofocus a little noisy"}, {"qas": [{"question": "How is the lens?", "id": "72e259c8d452089f7d235026a1ac0f5e", "answers": [{"text": "A cropped sensor makes this 40mm lens the equivalent of a 56mm", "answer_start": 140}, {"text": "sensor, I needed a lens that would get me close to 50mm", "answer_start": 82}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "This is a very nice addition to the Canon EF line-up.

I can fit my kindle fire hd with the case inside my inner jacket pocket while I know that I can't do that with the rest of these larger cases. Does it have the best stand? No. I would think that a stand that clicks into place would be better but this case does have rubber grips and it has never failed me. Some people may want to use the stand and push on the screen with their finger or stylus and it could be an issue there but I even use my stylus with the stand and it held up. Where this case compensates and has the edge over the other cases is.... 1. It snaps in and fits so well that the kindle fire hd and case appear be one piece together. It makes it so light and thin. 2. The case wakes up or puts to sleep the kindle. 3. Magnetic cover keeps it close and I think it is strong enough. 4. The pebble look leather looks real nice and fancy and inside the case there is a \"denim looking\" cloth that protects the screen. 5. The speaker is covered and protected with designed openings. There isn't a simple cutout or it isn't covered over to muffle the sounds. 6. The inputs like the power button, volume, charging port and headphone jack all work very well for me. I know some people complained about the headphone jack being too small but it fit fine for my ipod headphone and even my larger headphone that has larger size hexagon input. 7. While it may not be the best protection, it still gives you very good protection. I take good care of all my electronics and was more concerned with scratches/scuffs on the screen rather than impact falls so I think this case will be fine. Even if I dropped it on hardwood floor from 4 feet, I think it will hold up and protect the kindle fire hd.

The reason I returned the first TV was because I tried to hook up my old Tivo box through the standard composite audio/video plugs (red, white, yellow), and found the inputs did not work on the tv.  The composite audio/video input worked fine, but my old Tivo box does not have a composite audio/video output.  Amazon, being the best company ever, had a replacement Colby TV at my door the next day.  So, I hooked up my replacement tv and; same thing!  So now I am pretty peeved and frustrated and start moving the cables around.  I found I could make the standard composite audio/video work if the red and white audio cables were connected properly and the yellow video cable was hooked to the component green input.  What a nightmare.  Of course, this now renders my component input useless.  I figure these tv's must be wired wrong from the factory, so it would be pointless to keep getting replacements.  Since this tv is located in a guest bedroom, the cost was not all that great and the picture is fairly decent, I am keeping the tv as a spare.  I am going to hook up a dvd player with a HDMI output since I can not use the component tv inputs.

So I was interested in testing out another company’s product with my iPad Mini.Getting the iPad Mini properly mounted was a bit of a chore, with it being a ruggedized case. I have used ruggedized cases, with keyboards, before with iPad and iPhone devices, soe I knew a few tricks to getting the case fitted around properly, although, getting the last bit of case properly fit into the home button section took a little work. The online video link included in the paperwork was a good resource for novices.I like that the keyboard charging is done through a standard style cable. In this case a micro USB connection. Good, because in case the included cable ever gets lost, those cables are easy to find. Charging the unit was very straight-forward, with the LED indicators. I followed the recommended initial charging time of 4 hours.Next was syncing the keyboard via Bluetooth. This was straight-forward process, especially if you have done this before with iOS devices. Instructions included in the paperwork were easy to follow. I was pleased with the responsiveness of the keyboard when typing. It felt natural, and the keyboard feels very durable, especially with it being a ruggedized case. There was also a clip on the front, to help keep the case closed, so it cannot accidentally open.When using the case, it is nice to be able to use the screen in either a portrait or landscape view. I do wish it was able to set into the case at a larger angle for viewing, while using it on a table. The Targus Versavu set at a nice angle for having on a table when typing. The arm that holds the iPad can be adjusted a bit for the viewing angle, but gravity with bring it down some over time. I like that if the keyboard is not needed, you can rotate and fold the screen against the keyboard, so that it can be held somewhat comfortably.The aspects of being a ruggedized case are well designed. the covers for the ports are fairly durable, and should last well over lots of use. Other ruggedized cases have had a cover over the camera, that you need to peel and move out of the way. This case leaves the camera exposed, and I really like that feature, because on some cases, that flap can pop back and disrupt the use of the camera. I like that in spots near the corners of my Targus Versavu that wore thru the felt material, this case does not have any materials I can observe will have the same issue.I think users that use their iPad mini a lot outdoors, would find this case quite useful in protecting their unit from dirt, water, and the elements. In general, anyone who finds themselves using their iPad outside, or transporting it in and out of vehicles would appreciate the durable design and function. Even if attached to a mount in a vehicle, like for law enforcement or delivery vehicles, it would work quite well.Product Rating on scale of 1 - 5: 5"}, {"qas": [{"question": "How was the case at that time?", "id": "0b207fce6dde380113e23bb8b6b67a45", "answers": [{"text": "It is also a stylish case", "answer_start": 206}, {"text": "that the case will protect your iPad Mini", "answer_start": 953}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "This is a very sturdy, elegant and functional Bluetooth keyboard case for your iPad Mini. It is designed for people who want to use their iPad Mini in some very rough and physically demanding environments. It is also a stylish case that will not be out of place in your hip neighborhood coffee shop.One of the first things you notice about this case is that it's pretty heavy, much more so than some other such case/keyboard that are on the market right now. If you are looking for a very light accessory for your iPad Mini then this case is not for you. The case is also pretty hard to open up and insert your iPad Mini into. You need to pull back the rubberized outer cover, and then carefully pry open several small plastic hinges. You will probably not want to take your iPad Mini in and out too often.The case is indeed very sturdy and it covers your iPad Mini almost completely, including the plastic screen cover. It imbues one with a confidence that the case will protect your iPad Mini from most falls and bumps, although I have not been brave enough to venture an actual physical test. The case detaches from the keyboard, and it allows you to use the iPad by itself. All ports are covered with rubberized plugs, but they are easily pulled back and allow the ports to be easily accessed with chords.The keyboard paired up with my iPad Mini very easily and without any hitches. It also maintained connection for the duration of use.  The keyboard is charged through a micro USB slot on the side. (An Apple compatible charging port might have been a more appropriate choice, but knowing how reluctant Apple is to let the third-party vendors use its ports, this was likely not going to happen.) The keyboard is very responsive, and I for the most part like the key action. However, this sized keyboard is VERY cramped, and you really don't want to be using it for composing longer documents.The arm that attaches the case to the keyboard allows for your iPad to rotate through an arbitrary angle. However, only the portrait and the landscape orientations will be useful for the most part. I found the landscape orientation to be unstable though - I either had to allow the iPad Mini to \"dangle\" above the keyboard, or pull it out so far that the connecting arm becomes detached. If you are planning on typing in an on-the-go situation far away from a desk, then all of this is less than optimal.The case/keyboard combo is very well made. It is also competitively priced, and if you are looking for a rugged device/accessory of this kind then you will not go wrong with this New Trent model.

Either the ear buds were way out of my price range or they seemed to be unreliable. Everyone raved about the original Tone Bluetooth headset, but said it sounded tinny. This set caught my eye because a lot of reviewers said they sounded better than the originals. However, there were a lot of complaints about these headphones dropping connection with the device in a front pocket or only a foot or so away. Other people said they had no problems. It was one reviewer who mentioned that it could be an issue with an older protocol on older phones. Because of his review I decided to take a chance and get them, if I didn't like them I could send them back. (I have an LG Nexus 4 phone.)These arrived, a birthday present I picked out, and I synced them to my phone. They synced effortlessly. I simply turned them on and pressed the button on top that flashed blue. Went into my settings and turned on the Bluetooth and had it search for new devices. It found the headphones, I tapped, they paired, done. I turned on some music, sounded great. I would say it has plenty of base and a nice range. I use the poweramp app, so I was able to tune them the way I like my music to sound. Would I say they would compete with 300.00 headphones, no. But they sound really good for the price. I made a couple of phone calls, clarity was great. Everyone I called said it sounded like I was just talking normal on my phone. The only issue I had was a brother who talked to me over a speaker phone, it sounded echoey, but that was on his end. Everyone else sounded great. I fiddled with the settings and volume, everything works great. As to connectivity, on my Nexus 4, I put my phone in my pants pocket and did my normal tasks, sound never lost quality or dropped. Put it in my back pocket, same result. Decided that evening to check how far away I could get before it would dropp. I left my phone on its charger and walked out of my bedroom on one side of the house to my living room on the other side, the sound quality dropped a little when I got to the far end of the living room, as soon as I stopped the sound quality returned to normal and I finished listening to the song. I then walked downstairs to my basement all the way to the other side and the sound quality cut out for a split second and recovered as soon as I stopped walking. I sat at my computer and listened to music for almost an hour with only a few momentarily noticeable drops in quality and or sound. I figured that was a good enough test for me. I would say that the connectivity equals that of the older model as described in many reviews. So why do some of us rave about these headphones and others curse them? I can only assume that the reviewer who mentioned needing a newer phone with an upgraded protocol was right. With my Nexus phone, they are stellar. Only time will if they are durable. My only negative impression is the necleas doo-hickies on my neck. But I knew that going in.

I'm using these with a Samsung Galaxy S 3, which does support that standard.I agree that the connectivity is slightly worse with the new model, but it hasn't been a problem with my phone on my person.  I also get an occasional \"glitch\" in the music, which I didn't experience before.  This may be from the phone processing the higher-bandwidth streaming.I think the new model processes commands faster--it seems to respond slightly faster when I press pause, skip track, etc.  Other things I like that weren't on the 700 are audible battery status and mute control (by pressing volume +/- at the same time).All-in-all, I prefer the 730 over the 700 for its better sound quality.One other note--I did find the sound quality to be better with a popular mp3 player app than with the standard mp3 player that came with the phone/android.Edit 17Sep13: Connectivity is worse than I originally stated.

It did take a little time to get used to - I found I was unconsciously 'hunching forward' a bit when first wearing it, but it is by no means uncomfortable...just different.  The way the cords are attached with a movable loop, and the provided rubber earpiece covers in different sizes should provide sufficient sizing  options for most users.  I'm fairly bull-necked and I don't feel the cords 'pulling' the earbuds from my ears at all, even when turning my head.The battery took a fair amount of time to take an initial full charge, but after that it seems to last quite a while.  Even after playing a game on my Surface for a 3 hr planeflight, it still said "battery high" the next time I turned it on.  There's a small lighted indicator for the battery charging that goes from red to blue when it hits full.Verbal feedback is great.  "Connected....battery high".  Audio feedback with beeps of ascending or descending scale when changing volume level.  The buttons are findable with your fingers only when wearing to raise/lower volume, and presumably the answer call button although I'm not using as a phone function.Sound is fairly good - I don't really notice much background hiss, and both music and game audio seems full range.  I actually find I have to have these set at near minimum volume to be comfortable with it, even in high ambient noise situations (airplane), so it's got plenty of oomph.If I have any complaints at all, I wish it had a little more visible "left" and "right" indications, vs. the rather tiny molded letters in a box.  I guess in time I'll get used to the fact that I want the volume up/down buttons on the left side.  Then again, the volume plus or minus indicator vs. the track up track down indicators molded into the buttons are also very small, and don't provide any tactile distinction between them, so its not easy to tell whether you've put them on backwards.  That's one reason for a one star deduction.  The other reason for a slight deduction is I do wish the magnets that hold the ear buds in place when not inserted in the ear were a little stronger, like other reviewers have commented.  They do stay in place when the device is just cuffed around your neck, but tend to wander when tossed in a pocket of my computer or camera bag, so I'm always sort of semi-untangling them (and then squinting at them to figure out left vs right) before I can put them on.Sound does get a little choppy when using this on a Surface with a Bluetooth mouse also enabled.  But that may be the Surface's fault in terms of the available stack bandwidth and prioritization.  Not taking a star off for that.Supplied USB cord for charging is fine.  I don't have any complaints about range since I use them while at the laptop (Surface) not wandering around a football field and expecting them to still connect.Overall quite pleased.  Good sound isolation from background, plenty of volume, audio range is acceptable for music (not audiophile quality by any means - what wireless headphones are? - and besides I'm 40+ so my hearing itself is probably damaged at the high end).  Perfect companions for a lightweight laptop or tablet with Bluetooth.  Just need a little more visual indication and/or tactile differentiation between left and right side buttons (simplest idea but not everyone would like it - just make the whole right side of red plastic and the left side of white or black plastic...).

What was good is still good, when the connectivity is there.  When riding my motorcycle and the phone is mounted on my handlebars with nothing between me and the phone, connectivity is good and stays there.When I am doing yard work and the phone is on my right hip, connectivity is iffy.  And I get complaints of echoing and such intermittently.  I thought is was my phone because I had the Android 4.3 upgrade which trashed my wi-fi and I thought might have impacted my bluetooth as well but two weeks ago, I finally got a replacement phone.  The new Phone (Galaxy Note 2-Verizon) accepted the 4.3 and 4.4.2 updates with no issue to my wi-fi this time(YEA!) but the bluetooth issues are still there.  My son has the same headset with a galaxy S4 and the same problems.  My wife has the same headset on her Iphone-4 and no issues.  Go figure.So, my recommendation is this:1)  Buy it, try it out heavily and return it if it does not work.2)  If you have problems, Do not wait to return it or maybe get a fix from LG.  I waited too long and the warranty ran out.When it works, the sound is GREAT.  Good bass (well, let's just say my ears like it but I do have a bit of hearing loss so fidelity is no big deal for me).  Good volume.  Works great with my laptop and android tablet.The sad part is a cheap Bluetooth v2.1 works better with my phone than this one.I purchased this headset for one specific reason.  To be able to listen to music and communicate on the phone when riding my motorcycle.  I did not purchase through Amazon but a local big box store who did price match Amazon.I am going to look for a Bluetooth v4.0.  maybe that will work better.  Note, the v2.1 that work better fit me terribly.  I've got a big head and those did not have enough STRETCH to get around the back of my head.Setup Description:I have the LG730 paired with a Galaxy Note II phone (Verizon).  The phone does not have the stock battery, it has a 9300mah extended battery(warranty ZeroLemon Protection Guarantee CompatibleI mention this because it may be part of the problem I do occasionally have with the headset under the CON section.

I bought the wrong phone mount initially but just flipped the prongs around to the smaller set on the back and it works great.  No fear of vibration.  I used it on a 1600 mile trip two weeks ago with no problems.I have a 3/4 Vega helmet with a face shield that I usually have lowered.  I also wear a heavy motorcycle jacket (not a leather jacket but a heavy duty nylon jacket with Kevlar protectors and such).  The LG730 sits inside the jacket and I zip the jack all the way up but leave the collar open to be able to get to the answer button.  The ear buds have no issues as long as I have them stretched out all the way.  I only wear one, not two when riding so check your state laws on that ([...]  I can turn my head left or right and not pull the bud out of my right ear.Usage Experience:PRO:Sound Quality:  Excellent compared to the helmet speakers I was using.  Good Bass and volume levels that are adjustable both on the phone and the headset so you can get the mix you want.  I am NOT an audiophile so I'm not concerned about the highest hi's or the lowest lows.  I just want to hear the music and hold a conversation.Microphone:  Very Good.  I made several test calls to multiple people while riding my motorcycle.  Up until about 40 MPH, they could not tell I was on a motorcycle.  Up to about 70MPH, all they heard was a bit of a buzz from my mufflers but could still hear me clearly and I could hear them quite well.Call notification:  Works well.  I can hear the phone ringing in my ear bud, the phone itself and vibration from the HB730.Call Answer:  Works well with bare fingers and light gloves.  Harder to get with thick gloves but doable (Auto answer would be nice).Wearing:  They are very flexible and comfortable to wear.CONS:When not on the motorcycle, I wear my phone on my right hip.  Sometimes the sound quality goes to pot listening to music while walking.  I\"ll get skips in my songs.  This never happens on the same songs with my wired headset.  Turning off and back on the Tone+ usually clears that issue.  it's not an issue with the battery life (Usually high or on medium) and my phone with the 9300mah battery is NEVER low.  :)  (Love that battery....)I've noticed that when I lift up my left arm, i lose significant signal.  I've got a normal arm, no metals or anything in it but the blue tooth connections severely weakens and the sound almost drops out completely.  Drop my left arm back down, I'm good to go. (This may be related to my extended battery which completely covers the back of my Note 2 phone.  I'll find my original battery and see if I can duplicate the problem.No auto-answer.  Would be nice when working out or riding so I don't have to take a hand off of my handle bar.Hard to find the manual on the LG website.  An odd CON but I was just looking for it(to see if it can auto answer) and finding any support document for the LG Tone+ other than the sales page just wasn't there.Summary.Even with the small cons listed, this is a great Bluetooth headset for my purposes.  I also exercise at the gym with them.  I don't run (yet) but do walk on the treadmill and no problems to date with the slipping off.  Running might cause a problem because the are not tight around the back of my neck and may bounce.If it ever breaks, I'll buy it again."}, {"qas": [{"question": "How is the sound quality?", "id": "86364e5503b9413b55802d2e305c0f7c", "answers": [{"text": "Sound quality is very good but not as good as my wired Senheisser", "answer_start": 96}, {"text": "the Sound quality is very good", "answer_start": 92}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "I will say I do not use all the features these headphones offer.What I can tell you is that the Sound quality is very good but not as good as my wired Senheisser.I use the in the Office to listen to music, make phone calls, etc…These are a “MUST HAVE” if you ride a motorcycle.

Keep in mind, I came straight over from primarily using HDDs for my mass storage devices, thus the difference to me was more noticeable than for someone moving between SSDs (depending on their quality, of course.) For those who are more technically inclined or interested, I will paste benchmark data for the drive's performance at the end of the review.The design of the drive is very sleek and stylish. It boasts a smooth, polished, black exterior to house the powerful internals. You see what you expect out of an SSD: a lot of performance using a very small amount of space. I was a little bummed when I had to install it out of view as it was quite pleasant to look at.Installation is simple just like any other SATA drive; plug it into your motherboard and power supply, and you'll be smooth sailing from there.I'll discuss performance in terms of what's visibly noticeable, and following the conclusion, as aforementioned I will post benchmark results. From the moment I power on, to when I reach the login screen is only a span of about ten seconds or so (possibly slightly less); this is honestly a very quick process. If I didn't have a password lock, I would obviously boot into my system much quicker without having to input the keystrokes for the password. After I log in, I am instantly able to begin opening programs, and they load quickly. Anything from Firefox or Chrome, my large Steam library, or large movie files. I have not attempted to utilize any hungry video/photo editing programs, but you can rest assured that your loading times with those would be low as well. Furthermore, I play very high performing games such as Skyrim with high-res texture mods, Battlefield 3, and Anno 2070 to name a few.When considering this SSD for purchase, keep in mind the cost per GB when thinking about what size of SSD to get. Of course, if you just want to boot your OS quickly and some important high performance programs, you are likely better off with a smaller SSD with a larger HDD to store other files. In my case, I've installed the OS, all of my programs, and games to the SSD, while having a couple of other much larger HDDs to store the large movie files, music libraries, etc. Keep in mind, I don't install all of my games simultaneously to allow more room for other purposes. I purchased this SSD during a sale, thus granting me a better value per GB of space on this 256gb drive. If budgeting is important, considering waiting for a big sale as an option. Should money not be a concern, Samsung will be releasing high performance 1TB SSDs to the market for a much higher price point, but you will be able to get HDD storage sizes with the incredible speeds of an SSD.In summary, purchasing this SSD will not disappoint you or your wallet.

The kind you don't have to argue about. It's there in quantity for any need you might have. That aside, I see this SRMT as 2 headphones in one (a bargain BTW) - the extra-bass model for gaming, TV action film, house and other bass-centric music, and the hi-fi model (using bass reduction) for symphonies, folk and acoustic, jazz, rock/pop/metal, and other such delicate genres. Unless otherwise noted, all comments below apply to the SRMT using bass reduction, since I listen to music only, and my tastes are mostly towards neutral reproduction.The SRMT sounds to me like a blend of two other headphones I have - the Marshall Monitor and the Beats Mixr. The SRMT's bass is extra strong like the Mixr, and when bass reduction is used, still has a stronger bass (including the deep bass) than most so-called high fidelity headphones. The rest of the range above the upper bass sounds more like the Marshall - darker than the Mixr, especially in the "presence" region or lower treble. Most other reviews I've read of the SRMT don't describe the sound very precisely, comparing to other known references like the Mixr, or even the old school headphones like the Sennheiser and Beyer models. I have a feeling that any critical reviews of the SRMT by the best-known establishment reviewers will find the combination of extra strong bass and some shyness in the lower treble - that will take points off of their ratings for this headphone.In my case, using bass reduction for critical listening at home, the balance is perfect, or as near perfect as anything else I have, and that's excellent. The sound overall has a darker tonality than the average headphone, including the Beats Mixr, and it's about the same as the Marshall Monitor. The reasons I believe the SRMT is a 2-headphones-in-1 bargain is because 1) The SRMT's sound using bass reduction is excellent, with no bothersome peaks or dips anywhere in the music frequency spectrum; 2) The sound played flat (no EQ) provides the extra bass that gets lost in many portable use situations - outdoors or on public transport for example; and 3) Where most "bassy" headphones don't have the extra strength in the deep bass that they have in the upper bass, and using bass reduction with those headphones results in a weak lower bass, the SRMT's lower bass remains solid with good impact. The only other headphones I recall having this good of a bass response are the v-moda M100 and the Beats Mixr.The overall sound of the SRMT is very smooth from top to bottom. Unlike some reviewers who go into minute detail about the many aspects of sound the customer is likely to experience with their new headphone, I stick to the things I can explain - the things that anyone can hear on their music player, computer, or portable headphone amp etc. Besides having a bass response that's solid and detailed (given the things I noted above), and a midrange that's just right (neither forward nor recessed), the SRMT's treble is also ideal - just strong enough with enough detail for reproducing the fine upper harmonic detail in voices and instruments, but not so strong as to make sibilants or other treble irritations from lower-quality music tracks bothersome. I rarely say anything about amps except that they improve the sense of space or "air", but with the SRMT and my USB DAC/amps, the highs dried up more than when playing with the iPod alone, and I got better results with the FiiO E07k through the 'Aux' port.The SRMT's soundstage seems at least average, which is good for a closed-back headphone. Isolation also seems average for a closed headphone, and the leakage is low - low enough that playing the SRMT at a moderate volume level in a cubicle next to other cubicles in a quiet office should not be a problem. The music track examples listed below will tell my impressions of the SRMT's sound with that particular music. If you should happen to read other reviews on the SRMT that describe either the mids or treble as recessed, consider that those reviewers are playing the SRMT with the bass full up and that I'm using bass reduction. The reason I'm not reviewing the sound of the SRMT played flat (no EQ) is because many other reviewers have already done that, and I want to provide an alternative for customers who'd like to have a headphone like the SRMT, but wouldn't like extra-strong bass.The SRMT comes in several colors, and my video review shows the plain black version I purchased. The SRMT seems to be mostly plastic, including the headband I think, but the headbands are user-replaceable and are easily found at retail stores. I consider the build quality to be as good as the sound - excellent. The earcups are circumaural (around-ear), and they fit around my average or larger size ears with great comfort. There are 2 main classes of circumaural earcups in my experience - the large round cups like the Beyerdynamic DT770 and other Beyer series, or the Soundmagic HP100 and HP200, to name some examples. Then there are the smaller oval earcups/earpads like the Sennheiser Momentum, the Phiaton MS400, the v-moda M100, and the SRMT. The SRMT fits me better with greater comfort than any of these other small oval earcup/earpad designs.The headband clamp is fairly light for this type of headphone, and it's also very secure on the head, but the snug and secure fit may have a price - in very warm weather the earcups may feel overly warm. The 4-ft. straight cable is detachable and double-side entry, and the 2.5mm plug that goes into each earcup looks like a stereo plug, although the extra connector may have something to do with the start/stop and volume controls. The other end for the computer or music player is an Apple-style right-angle miniplug. The SRMT doesn't come with any sort of carry case, just a thin plastic-coated bag that won't protect the headphone from anything. If you need to take this headphone with you to various places and you don't want to wear it around your neck (that works very well BTW), I'd advise taking it apart - earcups and headband and cable - and packing them into whatever protective container you can find.In other reviews I've done I've included the following music examples with comments about how the headphones sound with each track. My suggestion is instead of reading each one as an absolute unto itself, you could compare my notes here to other reviews and see how the SRMT compares with each individual track. I copied these examples from my Beats Mixr review and then went through each one in a listening session, checking for any differences I heard from what I reported for the Mixr, and found only one or two minor differences - an excellent result. The SRMT is now one of my 4 favorite headphones, which includes the Beats Mixr, the Marshall Monitor, and the v-moda M100.Animotion - Obsession (1980's New Wave/Techno): The upper bass synth should have good detail and tone, and both male and female vocals should sound natural, without favoring either. The SRMT plays this perfectly.Ben Heit Quartet - Suite-Magnet and Iron (Jazz with a Bebop flavor): The piano that leads off should sound realistic, and the sax should sound soft. The SRMT plays this music extremely well.Cath Carroll - Moves Like You (1980's New Wave/Techno): This track's percussion and voice should be crisp and well-balanced, and there should be a good sense of space or soundstage around the voices and instruments. The SRMT reproduces the space and detail very well.Chromatics - I'm On Fire (Synth-Pop, female lead): Another track with plenty of space around the voice and instruments, making for a very pleasant stereo image. The voice sounds good and the tambourine in the background is clearly identifiable.Crystal Castles - Wrath of God (Electro-Pop): The moderate level of bass in this track should reproduce with good detail, and the ambient electronic effects should maintain their separation and never congeal into a glassy, hard, or "ringy" sound as some headphones might produce if they have uncorrected resonances. The SRMT does this one just right.DJ Shadow - Building Steam With a Grain of Salt (Electronic/DJ): This track opens with what sounds like very high and very low piano notes, and those high notes particularly might ring a few resonances in lesser headphones. The SRMT handles those notes well, and reproduces the ambient voices with good tone and balance.Franz Ferdinand - Ulysses (Pop-Rock): The moderate level of bass in this track should reproduce with good detail, and the percussion and voice should be crisp and well-balanced. The SRMT makes this sound like what I imagine the original producers heard when they mixed it.Halie Loren - Sway (Jazz vocal): Bass instrument(s) here may sound boomy with some headphones, but the SRMT handles this perfectly. The trumpet should sound natural but soft, and the voice should have the right presence without sounding recessed or too forward. The SRMT does a great job in both respects.Hans Zimmer - Dark Knight-Aggressive Expansion (Soundtrack): The percussion hits hard here, and the SRMT handles it well. The bass tones beginning around 0:45 into the track are the ultra-deep "shuddery" kind that require good deep bass response from a headphone, and the SRMT reproduces those deep notes even with bass reduction enabled as described above.Kaskade - 4am (Electro-House): The bass that kicks in around 1:01 into the track is subtle, but the SRMT gets it right. The percussion and female voice should balance well with neither overwriting the other, and the SRMT aces this.Katy B - Perfect Stranger (R&B-House-Garage;): The heavy bass that begins at 0:27 into this track is played very well by the SRMT. The voice is slightly forward, but it doesn't overpower the instruments or get lost in the mix. The SRMT balances the different elements in this music extremely well.Machine Gun Kelly - All We Have (Rap/Hip-Hop): The heavy bass beats that begin at 0:23 into the track should sound like drum impacts, although they're not sharp impacts. The male and female voices should have a good balance and not overpower the music or sound recessed. The SRMT plays this as good as can be expected given the limited quality of the recording.Massive Attack - Angel (Trip-Hop): This track begins with a steady low-frequency sound and some solid deep-bass impacts. The voices should blend well with the music and have just the right presence, although the recorded quality of the instruments isn't great. The SRMT plays this as good as can be expected given the limited quality of the recording.Morcheeba - Bullet Proof (Trip-Hop): Bright percussion and medium-strength bass impacts make up most of this, with some dance-club spoken intonations thrown in. The SRMT renders the percussion treble correctly (not too bright, not harsh), and the voices sound just right.Peter Tosh - Get Up Stand Up (Reggae): The bass here has a decent but moderate impact, and the lead and backup voices have good separation that's not too narrow or wide. The SRMT renders the bass with good detail and the voices sound very natural.Porcupine Tree - Trains (Pop-Rock): This track opens with some detailed string sounds and a forward-sounding male voice with a higher-than-average register. There are also some "clip-clop" effects starting at 3:19 that should sound like they were made with wooden blocks of some kind. The SRMT reproduces all of these sounds faithfully.Rachmaninoff - Prelude in C-Sharp Minor Op3 No2 (Classical, Piano): Grand piano played mechanically from an original recording by the master himself. The bass is light here, but the piano tone is good quality, and the SRMT plays these notes very well.Scarlatti-Kipnis - Sonata in E Major K381 (Classical, Harpsichord): The harpsichord here is fairly bright and highly detailed, and the SRMT renders the tones and transients superbly.Trombone Shorty - Backatown (Jazz-Funk): The deep bass impacts here are unusually strong, and work very well with the horns and other instruments. The SRMT delivers the impacts with proper weight, and makes the horns sound real.William Orbit - Optical Illusion (Billy Buttons Mix) (Electronic): This is about as close as I want to get to easy-listening music. The string(?) tones beginning at 0:18 are subtle, but clearly reproduced by the SRMT. The bass isn't very strong, but still adds a good underpinning to the music. The short poetic rap at 4:14, preceded by an etherial female voice, sounds so perfect that this track could easily have been mixed using the SRMT headphone."}]}, {"title": "B00BGA9WK2", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "What is thing?", "id": "150e5eb19b18c6088790e9998b3de98d", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "The PS4 is a solid machine, boasting lots of power - which has yet to be harnessed by game developers - and a fairly solid launch-day lineup. I am quite pleased that developers are pushing back game release dates; that means that they know that their product isn't ready for launch, and they want to give the gamers the best experience possible. Rushing to market benefits no one.There are a few issues, such as lack of DLNA or MP3 support, which will likely be fixed with a software update. I honestly know few gamers that used it - this is a gaming machine, not a home theater. It was just not on Sony's radar. My SmartTV has all that built into it, so I don't really care either way.There was also a lot of whining about defective units. Assuming sony had a 1% failure rate, that means 10,000 defective units for every 1,000,000 - and we all know that unhappy people are the loudest. The industry level for acceptable failure is about 4%. Current Sony Failure rates are around 0.4%, so I don't put much stock in the "they're all broken" drama. Now, I'll be the first to say that I'm no fanboy, but I got seriously shafted with the last Microsoft offering that had a 50%+ failure rate. Thanks, after that, I'll take my business elsewhere. If they've learned, good for them. Maybe I'll consider them again in 8 years when the next "console war" kicks off.After hours of being impressed with graphical depth and loading speeds, I've noticed that my PS4 hardly makes a peep and is consistently nothing more than warm. No small feat for the small footprint, and the amount of power the unit pushes. The dashboard is a bit weird at first, but what new system isn't. The social networking features are neat, but will be more useful when more people adopt the console, and I've been relatively impressed with the Vita's remote play functionality (if nothing else, I have a free second controller).Aside from a few software glitches that I'm sure are being worked on, I'm extremely satisfied with my purchase, and the fact that for the same price as an XBO, I got an extra game. Things will only get better as both big box and indie developers get familiar with the architecture and start cranking out some awesome games. Ground breaking? No. Breath taking? Maybe. A worthy purchase for a hardcore gamer? Definitely. If nothing else, the DualShock4 is an absolute revelation - a pleasure to use for hours on end, and the headphone jack is remarkably smart. (Protip: the controller uses BT, so the headphone jack is stereo. If you want 7.1 quality sound in headphones, pick up some Astro A40s/A50s if you don't already own them... which you should if you're a hardcore gamer). The included mic is a nice gesture, but, please don't use it unless the rooms is extraordinarily quiet - it is not noise cancelling.In the end, most of the amazing games are cross-platform anyway, so it is really win-win as far a games go. I'm pleased that Sony is still allowing internet access for free (just not multiplayer gaming, which is fair since servers aren't free). I happily pay the PSN+ fee, regardless and have amassed quite a free game library.The next generation is not a big leap forward in graphics, but instead, a leap forward in gaming. Everything that wraps the game has been upgraded and streamlined, making for a much more immersive experience (streaming gameplay, social interactions, how the game interacts with you, etc.). Don't expect the launch-title graphics to wow you - they probably will not for a year or two- but do expect to have a different experience than with your previous generations of console."}, {"qas": [{"question": "How is the build quality?", "id": "a867279c8ed1002e4b6820eb6c0791ff", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "After a botched Saturday delivery (item ordered Thursday at midnight), Amazon finally got around to shipping my Saturday delivery item Saturday night and I got it Monday afternoon.  As others have stated, the PS4 was in a box with one layer of air packs on TOP of the package!  That leaves the bottom and all 4 sides completely unprotected against shock.  Big thumbs down for Amazon's packaging and delayed shipping.That said, the item did arrive with no damage and mine powers up and runs with no issues.  Played about 3 hours of gaming so far and it doesn't seem to overheat or have any other issues.  Took about an hour to figure out that DD 5.1 doesn't work out the optical output unless you check HDMI as \"primary\".  Go figure.  Seems like a bug.  As soon as I switched to HDMI as the primary sound output, the *optical* out started working and delivered 5.1 to my receiver.As a console, I'd have to call this a PS 3.1 instead of a PS4.  The OS operates very much like the PS3 and it just feels like I replaced my PS3.  Lots of pixels and nice graphics but on the one game I've played so far (Killzone) it's not a blow-you-away feeling.  The purchase has honestly left me feeling like I should have waited for the Xbox One in 4 more days.  Really nothing new here.  It's basically a PS3 with more pixels.  No new innovations to take your gaming to the next level like a next gen Kinect BUT the one high point I'd have to say is the controller.  The smoothness and linearity are quite impressive.  Still, I'd MUCH prefer that they have AA batteries that I can just replace when needed (like the Xbox) rather than needing to leave my $400 console on to charge the controllers!UPDATE: Well, I got an Xbox One and let me tell you, compared to the Xbox One, the PS4 shines so I updated this review to 4 stars!  I'll keep both because I like some of the exclusive games on both consoles but the PS4 controller is more amazing each time you use it.  The Xbox One controller feels like a whale's tail in comparison.  The thing that sends me over the top is that there is one game I can't stop playing: Resogun!  IMO, this is the only game on either console right now (early December 2013) worth playing!  And playing.

I have also owned and used in the past the Logitech Review using GoogleTV, the last two non-Google TV Sony boxes, and two generations of the WD TV Live streamers. After owning and using all those, the Roku is the only one that has a place in my livingroom, and here's why...Without boring everyone on the specs of the R's, let me start by telling about my experience setting it up.Once unpacked one simply plugs the power adapter into the wall and an HDMI cable into the TV and the Roku, that's it. The unit begins booting up then asks you to select whether you want to use a wireless or wired network connection. I selected wireless and it then shows a list of the networks it detected. Once you choose your network you input the password for your network and in a few seconds it connects right away.Finally it displays an activation code which you are to use to activate and attach the Roku to your online Roku account. For some seeking out a computer that may or may not be near the TV might be a pain, but I simply opened Safari on my iPhone and added the code to my account while sitting in front of the TV.Once the code is entered, as part of the attaching process you are prompted to add payment info just in case you want to buy a channel or game in the future. You can not bypass this but IT'S OK. Enter it in and finish the account set up. Once you do you can simply choose to delete the payment info and it's erased from the Roku servers.Once the account is made and successfully linked, the Roku automatically downloads the channels from your account (if you are attaching it to an existing account) or just quickly downloads the few selected during the account creation process, including \"Angry Birds Space\".That's it, its that easy to get it set and ready to stream. Of course with some premium channels you will either need to log in to your account from the Roku (Netflix) or similarly link the box to your online account using a computer, smartphone, or tablet browser (Amazon Instant Video).I have found that the set up is incredibly easy over the numerous boxes I've used over the last few years and always recommend a Roku to especially those less adept at setting up electronics/computers/networking items.The interface--The interface of the Roku units has always been a sore point.. When it started out with just Netflix and then just a few channels, the horizontal row of channel icons was fine, but now with HUNDREDS of channels it was sorely needing a refresh. The interface alone was one of the biggest reasons I was always trying different streaming boxes..I'm so pleased to see the new grid-style interface on the R3. Not only is it beautifully rendered, but it is very, very fast to navigate and to find whatever it is you want in your channel list. Very modern-looking and functional.One huge thing I notice over the older units in the interface is that besides it being \"pretty\", even the channels load much faster than previous units thanks to a new processor.The universal search function is great too, allowing you to search for movies, shows, and even actors across the major providers.The USB port--USB functionality is a great add-on for the top tier Roku. The Roku units are first and foremost internet streamers, but the convenience of plugging in a thumb drive and being able to play some of my personal movie collection is great. Video format is rather limited, but again this is an add-on feature not a main selling point. Because I'm an iTunes user, I rip all my movies/shows as H.264 MP4 files because thy are iPhone/iPad compatible, and just so happen they are compatible with Roku as well. Very nice.Programming----This is where Roku is just second to none, and why I choose to use it over all the others. Besides the big players like Netflix, Vudu, etc. Roku has such a wealth of programming that I actually hate it. I hate the fact I'm not independently wealthy and have to work for a living, and consequently don't have enough time in the day to watch everything on there I want to. You may very well feel the same way, but not to worry.. Unlike broadcast TV, everything on Roku is on-demand, meaning its there when you want it, not when its being broadcast.Now sure, there's no YouTube. That might or might not be coming so if you get one, just assume you won't have it. Cute little kitty videos are fun to watch on the TV, but there's tons more you can watch on other channels. I love the fact I can get live streaming news from the BBC or CNN International, or watch cheesy, badly dubbed Kung fu movies, or B-movie horror and sci-fi all night long for free from my Roku if I want lol. The Roku's available programming really is like a buffet, its all you can eat and there's something for everybody.The remote ---The remote is very comfortable in the hands and acts as a motion-controlled controller for gaming. It it also isn't infared like a traditional remote so that means it doesn't have to be pointed right at the TV in order to work. The private listening mode worked really nicely when I tried it and I can imagine many uses for it.Overall the Roku 3 is a great upgrade from the previous Roku 2, mostly because of the new UI (which will be coming to the roku 2 units in a month or two), the faster processor, and the wireless private listening mode. If you already have an R2 XS, I don't honestly think its worth upgrading since its biggest noticeable feature (the UI) will come in time.For some just now dipping their toes in the world of internet streaming, I personally would get this Roku 3 hands-down over any other competing player on the market. Its so easy to use and that's why not only is it what I use but what my elderly parents use too. The best thing about them is they keep getting better."}, {"qas": [{"question": "How was the quality of pictures?", "id": "8ddd892434a17f624f3a5f4b43c4fd5b", "answers": [{"text": "channel", "answer_start": 3279}, {"text": "The picture was outstanding", "answer_start": 2445}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "After all my years in the computer industry, its become a very high expectation of mine that hardware and software be easy to setup and get started with. That being said the Roku 3 is the fifth Roku I have personally installed. It is amazing that its ease of setup continues to get ever better. Take it out of the box, peel off the protective plastic, hook up the HDMI cable to your TV or monitor and the back of the Roku 3, connect the power brick and a Ethernet cable and you're done. That's it, you can't complain about 3 cables now can you?Unlike many other products, the Roku has no power button, it consumes so little power it really doesn't need one. This means when you are ready to watch a show, there is no waiting. I knew from previous models (Roku 2) to put batteries (included) in the remote prior to going through setup. This ensures the Roku finds the remote and synchs up with it right away. Speaking of the remote, the new Roku 3 remote has an earphone jack built right into it's side. What a great feature, now when sitting in bed you can easily add earphones so as to watch TV without ever bothering the other half. The volume control is handled by two buttons on the opposite side of the remote, just where they should be. It is features like this that demonstrate the folks at Roku actually use their own products and pay close attention to detail. Small things like this really make the experience much more pleasurable.Once you have powered on, the mostly automatic setup is a breeze and super easy to deal with. Just for the sake of seeing how well it worked, I connected the Roku 3 through both a Ethernet cable and over wireless to my dual Netgear wireless router. Added the Mac: address to the router and had it reserve an IP. Ran the wireless detection and it configured first time through without a hitch. Then I switched the cable for the faster speed over the gigabit network. I can always fall back on the wireless in case something goes bonkers with the cables.Once the Roku 3 was up and running with my Roku account, it downloaded the new firmware, updated all my channels and I played a game of Angry Birds Space. Love the new remote, really works well for playing games like Angry Birds. As much as I like Angry Birds, it was time to put the Roku to it's best use, watching movies in HD on my 27" monitor. Went straight to Amazon Prime, linked the new Roku to my account and rented SkyFall in full 1080P. The picture was outstanding, not one hiccup or stutter, and no buffering at all, not once. skyfall is a killer movie by the way, I highly recommend it:)All in all, the Roku 3 is just another prime example of how to do things right. Check out the new interface, search capability, and channel store look and feel, you won't be disappointed. Changing settings has never been easier. With a great new interface which allows you to go right where you need, to change between network types, interface themes, audio modes, time, etc. you'll be watching and playing within minutes of opening the box.This new Roku is a real pleasure to use, never even looked at the literature that came with it and was watching a new release HD movie in under 15 minutes, and two of those were waiting for the popcorn in the microwave. Next ill try the USB channel with one of my slim drives with all my media, but I have a bunch of movies to catch up on first! You can't go wrong with the Roku 3, the best Roku yet, five stars at least!"}, {"qas": [{"question": "How is the one?", "id": "ba3a5da481765fdb722c113cc36c697c", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "As an ex-patriot living overseas, I use ROKU as my sole means of getting American TV.

My kids use the headphones in the remote frequently as well.The only "issue" I have with it is that they moved the "OK" button from in the middle where I was used to it, down below, so I have to think about it before I can hit the button.

Initially, my router was upstairs and I was testing on my middle floor, and it was impossible to screen share a video. It was far too laggy and glitchy (testing on South Park Studios and HBO Go). I then moved the router down to the middle floor and placed it near my tv, and the performance was greatly improved to the point where I was able to stream video. Even though the performance was improved, I would rather just stream video with a cable under most circumstances. The screen sharing resolution is also maxed out at 720p. Hopefully more content providers will make their own apps, which clearly perform better than the screen sharing.The Chromecast is nice for laptops/desktops and incredible for mobile devices. The ability to starting playing a video, then turn off your screen or start doing something else is not possible with just a hardwired connection (for mobile).There are a few things that I still haven't tested, such as multiple mobile devices queueing up a Youtube playlist, but overall for only $35 I highly recommend it.

I havee also used the keyyboard forr several hours and have not neeededd to charge it once yet.Case/StandThe case overall is very sturdy.  It has a nice solid, slightly heavy feel to it.  I assume the weight is due to the battery.  The case closes tightly and has a nice latch to keep it closed.  Another positive with the case is that it is very configurable.  There are a lot of different orientations that you can place the iPad in (portrait, landscape, folded over on top of the keyboard).  There is a groove at the top of the keyboard for resting the iPad in so it doesn't move when you touch it.  Unfortunately, I have found it slightly awkward to get the iPad in the groove because it requires sliding a latch on the back of the keyboard and pulling the stand part of the case sligtly out of the keyboard.My favorite way to use the case is on a table.  I pull the iPad and stand completely out of the keyboard and place it several inches behind the keyboard.  It makes it very easy to sit down and knock out some emails withough having to use the on-screen keyboard.  It is very handy to be able to remove the iPad but keep the stand attached, without needing the keyboard.  I have used it several times this way as well.The case also has the ability to detach the iPad from the keyboard and stand entirely.  It is very quick and easy to remove it by using a camera lens cap type of connector.  The iPad itself sits in a thin plastic case that wraps around the sides and back of the iPad.  it's not incredibly protective and I'm not sure how it would handle a drop, but it's much better than no case and does offer scratch protection for the back of the iPad.OverallThis case works well as a case for a family iPad.  It can be used with the keyboard for doing text-intensive work, then with just the stand for watching videos or playing games.  It's also quick to pop off of both to hand it to the kids to use, while still offering some protection.

Needless to say last night I learned that porn is stronger than the Nighthawk.Parental Control Problems:1. If you set the router on the highest setting for network protection it filters porn, however it also filters out pretty much anything but first grade friendly material. A no-go for a house with a teenager who has reports to do for school and needs internet access.2. In the Parental Control interface you can setup strict browsing for the family and an override account for those who don't need or want it, but using 'custom' settings is frustrating and seems to be hit and miss for porn specifically.3. In the Parental Control settings you can add up to 25 sites you want blocked. That's it - and it's not enough for all trash on the internet!4. In the Genie dashboard under Advanced - Security you can add keywords and domains (yuck dot com, dot net...) to block. When those are set, if a user attempts to go there they get a black screen with red stripes that says 'Firewall Blocked' user.5. Removing a 'keyword' is a joke too! You have to clear the list and start over, as it won't let you delete just one word like 'porn' to eliminate all sites with that keyword in the title from opening.You can set things up so that the administrator gets emailed every time one of the blocked sites gets a 'knock, knock' by a user on your network. Unfortunately, this too has a limited number of sites and/or keywords that can be added, and it's just not enough for the price you pay for this router!The speed and stability is great, but I hate that with this expensive piece of equipment and user-interface that seems to be so helpful - these limitations are put on the device.I didn't buy this router to limit porn, but it is one of the things I like to do on my home network. I'm not a prude, but I should be able to surf securely if that's part of what's promised at a premium price.Oh, and the way I found this out was that I periodically go onto a browser like Bing or Google and type in random words and phrases to see what shows up. When it's something related to porn and I know I have the filter set, I click to make sure they are blocked. Last night, it wasn't and I spent nearly 3 hours learning the limitations of the NETGEAR Genie software.Maybe this is something that can be addressed by the NETGEAR Team in an update? It will definitely have to be improved upon to be considered a safe router for households who are concerned with Parental Controls,  and I would not recommend this router for this reason.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This is a huge, pricey wireless router which is worth every penny if you're living in a big home, have multiple devices all wanting WiFi, want to be able to take command of your network in darn near every way possible or 'all of the above'.WHY I CHOSE THIS WIRELESS ROUTER...I purchased this router with some trepidation due to the high sticker price. It's twice as expensive as the most expensive one I've previously purchased and also twice as big.  Despite these things, I was looking for a router to replace myBelkin N750 Wireless DB Dual-Band Gigabit N+ Router With High Speed HD Streaming & USB (F9K1103), which while OK, was struggling to keep up with the growing WiFi demands of my family.With 15 wireless devices used on the network (laptops, desktops, streaming devices, smartphones, gaming systems, etc...), if everyone was connected, we all experienced signal drop offs. When streaming video it was not uncommon to get lagging connections and/or encounter buffering issues.After reading a bit about higher end routers, I decided to get a simultaneous dual band router. This one works well as you can set the (QoS - Quality of Service) to uploads (for gaming) or to downloads (for streaming). These two things opened up a whole new level of enjoyment in this cord cutter household!Having written a book on cord cutting:Simple Guide to Over-the-Air Free TV, and using myRoku 3 Streaming Media Player,Google Chromecast HDMI Streaming Media PlayerandApple TV MD199LL/Ato supplement my over air HD TV network programming, I know the importance of a solid WiFi network and this NETGEAR Nighthawk beautifully gets the job done. Netflix, Amazon Prime Instant Video and Hulu Plus all load more quickly and offer great picture quality and stability.In addition to this router's awesome performance and range, this NETGEAR product has a fantastic software utility suite (for both PC and MAC) with free iOS and Android apps. The software is easy to use and highly customizable.  I love the Parental Controls, which can be set for the whole network, or just for specific devices.THE PROS:+ Exceptional range.+ Outstanding speed (*more than doubled my download speed from 33Mbps to 68Mbps) with simultaneous dual band (2.5Ghz and 5Ghz).+ Excellent security settings, which are setup for you at installation. **NOT true - see update!***+ Whisper quiet.+ Lights can be turned OFF in NETGEAR Genie (Settings - Advanced - LED Control Settings) or have them blink, or remain solid - your choice!+ QoS settings make customizing your network a breeze for the things you do most whether they are gaming or streaming; by group or per device.+ Can set up a VPN (Virtual Private Network) to access your network from anywhere.+ Lots of options for tweaking the setup, if you desire it.+ READYSHARE for printers or for network storage and back-up is a great feature.+ Guest network setup is optional.+ At a glance access to all the devices on your network by app or PC with NETGEAR Genie software.+Setup Wizard in 'Advanced' area of NETGEAR Genie works to effortlessly get you online.+ You can set up FTP storage.+ DLNA enabled for media server functionality; including iTunes library.+ USB 3.0 port for connecting external storage or media server.+ Ability to block specific sites or sites by keyword, in addition to Parental Control settings which are highly customizable.+ Ability to block services on a schedule.+ Ability to have WiFi turn off during scheduled times during the day or by entire days of the week.+ Ability to set up email alerts when devices on the network attempt to connect to specific sites.+ Ability to enable wireless repeater function.+ Ability to see traffic loads (upload/download) on your network.+ The router can be hung on a wall or sit on a desktop.+ Very cool to the touch, with excellent ventilation on the sides of the device.+ You can set password recovery questions when you reset your password from the default 'password' at start up.THE CONS:- It's HUGE, and the 'wingspan' with the three antennas attached makes it about the same footprint as a 15\" laptop. (I have mine hanging on the wall with the cables coming out the top for easy access.)- Initial setup even with NETGEAR Genie did not go smoothly for me, and I'm an intermediate to advanced user. Small tweaks here and there in the NETGEAR Genie got all of my devices to play well together eventually though.- The price is hefty compared to other wireless routers for home use, but its features and speed are impressive.THINGS TO NOTE...Firmware updates must be made out of the box; Advanced - Administration - Router Updates and then 'Apply'. (You can get the latest prior to setting up your router and install it by finding the file on your computer, or let the router connect and obtain it.)There's an iOS app called 'Net Analyzer Lite' that I found to be very useful in identifying some of my devices by MAC address. This in addition to the NETGEAR Genie app are both free, and well worth the downloads.This is an impressive package both in terms of hardware and software. I'm very pleased with this purchase and I highly recommend it to those who want a feature-packed router with top notch speed and security settings. I think it would be ideal for a small business, multi-level or large home, or any sized home with lots of devices (10+) who are all competing for bandwidth.Highly recommend this one if you can afford it!UPDATE: 5/11/14 - I'm loving this router! Netflix flies through shows using 5Ghz and no buffering with a Roku 3. I can download an album to the Amazon Cloud in about 15 seconds and every web browser: Chrome, IE, Opera, Safari... loads pages faster. I'll be hooking up a Seagate USB 3.0 external drive with movies to use the DLNA feature and will update this review after that use.Overall, I can't say enough good things about this purchase.UPDATE: 5/17/14 - That 'love' was short lived and the 5 star rating was dropped to a '2' star based upon porn getting through and the limited ability to add blocked sites or keywords for added security. Paying this much for a router - it should have solid security as well as speed."}]}, {"title": "B00GH0N1LM", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "How is the look?", "id": "1f09dd5786a8a803fdfe226e51f7bca3", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "My Logitech keyboard / case recently broke and I thought I’d give something else a try. I ended up getting the Airbender (since it’s half the price and has a really slim profile). I slipped the iPad mini right into the holder and it melds into the case. It looks like it was always meant to be there. A perfect fit!It makes the iPad mini look like a macbook pro clam shell laptop with very thin profile. I do a lot of typing and this is a great product. It is responsive and works very well. The coolest feature on this case is the swivel top design. It allows me to turn it into a tablet when I do not need the keyboard. The only thing that I have not yet been able to test is the longevity of the battery. But I’m sure that it should last forever on one charge. With the LED indicator, I know if there is a charge or not, unlike the logitech.There is only one thing I would modify on this keyboard case. I would make the rubberized paint a bit more sticky. In the cold it gets a bit slippery when you wear gloves.The only difference between the the Logitech and Airbender is the slight weight difference. The Logitech is slightly lighter than the Airbender, but the Airbender has the advantage with the swivel top."}]}, {"title": "B00GP4BVTO", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "What is case?", "id": "4c14b7af4633606f042fbc763c8d93c3", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "Case works perfectly, keyboard feels great and the hotkeys are amazing! I was going to buy another case for 100 dollars at BB, but found this one on Amazon, and I am so happy I bought this one.One thing I do wish it had was magnets on the two bottom resting metals that hold the ipad when it is standing in landscape or portrait, cause if you accidentally tilt the ipad to much backwards, then the ipad has no locking mechanism to stay put and may fall backwards. This is really not a deal breaker for me cause i already know its like that so Im just more careful. Only problem maybe when someone that doesnt know about it, may pickup my ipad and not realize it and it may fall backwards. So a magnetic strong enough force to keep it standing would be an awesome upgrade.Overall, I am so happy. Many walk by and say, hey that is a nice little Pc, then I tell them its an ipad. they say WOW, that is so awesome. Case looks really professional and protects the Ipad big time!I recommend anyone to buy it! especially at this great price!"}, {"qas": [{"question": "How is the case fitting your product?", "id": "15e8641a017f932bd18d62b234d233b3", "answers": [{"text": "The case is built well", "answer_start": 0}, {"text": "The case is built well", "answer_start": 0}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "The case is built well. It does not seem like it will fall apart or break from normal daily use.Setting up the case was very easy. It took less than 30 seconds to pair the case and then use it. After the initially pairing, the iPad and keyboard case automatically sync when Bluetooth is on and the device is on.The keys are responsive and are great for reducing wear and tear on the iPad because you can use the home and lock buttons directly from the keyboard.The ability to orient the case in landscape or portrait mode allows you to customize the iPad’s position to your liking. Also, the case can be moved to multiple angles for different uses like watch movies and typing.The battery life lasts for a long time and it was used right after unboxing the product and has not needed to be charged yet. But it does come with a micro USB charging cable for charging.The case is compact for a keyboard case and it is about twice the size of the iPad Air by itself. It fully covers the iPad, but allows access to all the ports and camera. Also, when not in use, the case closes like a clamshell to protect the iPad. The keyboard portion of the case has four rubber pads to protect the iPad screen from the keys.The iPad was fairly easy to extract from the case so the iPad was not scratched or damaged when detaching from the keyboard case.It would be nice to have the iPad case part detach from the keyboard when not in use, but this is a suggestion not a problem with the case."}]}, {"title": "B00H3OYSHW", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "Where can I get a luminous case?", "id": "3aed11488369a643feeb92a4bf199407", "answers": [{"text": "This case has a really rugged metal", "answer_start": 1709}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "I really like the Airbender Pro. It's an excellent improvement over the Airbender 2.0.  The Airbender Pro has a thick and very protective rubber case that protects the iPad Air and the bluetooth keyboard.  It's somewhat thick, which helps to make it extra protective.  It protects all the ports and has a built in screen protector.  It also has holes for the speakers so you can still listen to music.  The case is shock and water resistant.  It is not water proof.  It would be really great to have a waterproof case.  If I am outside in the snow or rain and want to use my iPad, it would be nice to have it in a waterproof case.  The bluetooth keyboard is a full keyboard.  It pairs easily with the iPad Air.  It's very easy to type on.  The keys are comfortable.  It could use a mouse.  If the keyboard was rearranged, and the keys were moved up, there would be room for a laptop style mouse or a pencil eraser style mouse.  The way in which the port coverings attached to the case seem somewhat flimsy, like they could fall off after a few months of everyday use.  The keyboard has an internal battery and can be charged using a micro USB.  The battery will last all day long.  I use this case and keyboard everyday, both at home and at work.  I perform Human Resources and Payroll functions at my job.  I do a lot of work on the Internet and send and receive a plethora of email throughout the day.  This case would be great for anyone in any occupation that needs a bluetooth keyboard for their iPad Air and a protective case.  This case really turns the iPad Air into a mini laptop.  I have gotten several really nice compliments from co-workers about how attractive the case is and how useful it is.  This case has a really rugged metal arm that won't break like the plastic arms that some of the cases have.  With this protective case on my iPad Air, I feel that I can take it more places.  It's also more usable with the keyboard.  Sometimes the bluetooth keyboard does make my iPad freeze up when I check my email on Microsoft Exchange.  Other than that the keyboard has been great.  Sometimes if I let the iPad sit for awhile, it will lose its connectivity to the bluetooth keyboard and I have to reconnect.  I give this case and keyboard a rating of 4 out of 5 stars.  This is definitely an excellent improvement over the Airbender 2.0.  The case on the Airbender 2.0 was thin and flimsy.  The Airbender Pro is awesome, durable, and rugged.  It is definitely built to last.  I highly recommend this case to anyone with an iPad Air.  You will not be disappointed."}, {"qas": [{"question": "How is the case fitting your product?", "id": "fdbbf1803a8500b8fb504fc2474bc0ca", "answers": [], "is_impossible": true}], "context": "I've found this case to be very durable and reliable. Unfortunately, it is slightly cumbersome just for day to day use, but if you use the iPad rigorously this case is perfect. The material used for this case is high-quality, and it feels comfortable to hold because of it. The hinge offers different viewing angles and the clip offers 360 degree rotation of the iPad. One of the best features is that you're easily able to detach the keyboard and hinge by squeezing the two clips together. The in-built screen protector is wonderful and smooth, but initially it felt a little rough on the fingertips. Also, the all of the ports are covered with rubber, so it is protected from spills. Unlike the majority of cases sold, this case has a built-in chiclet keyboard that feels like a laptop keyboard. The keys are made out of solid plastic and are very responsive to type on.If you need a case for light use, I recommend New Trent's newer Airbender 2.0. If you need a case for heavy use, I recommend this case!"}]}, {"title": "B00HNFPZF0", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "How is the case?", "id": "1415fda1208bb402a22bbc1dbaab5487", "answers": [{"text": "The case is very beautiful", "answer_start": 172}, {"text": "The case is very beautiful", "answer_start": 172}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "I have had this item for less than a week and am still becoming more familiar with it. Having said that, my initial impressions are very positive and are as follows:Pros1. The case is very beautiful, stylish, rugged and well designed. It is lightweight and adds little bulk to the device. It fits my iPad Air like a glove and all ports are accessible. In addition, all ports have covers which helps protect them from damage, dust, etc.2. The specs say that the case is shock proof and water resistant. Although I had no chance to verify this personally,  the fit seems tight and it would be difficult for water or dust to penetrate the case.3. The built in screen protector works very well. I removed the original screen protector from the iPad and then applied the built in screen protector. This did make it easier to install the iPad Air in the case and there were no bubbles or grids, as some people experienced,  on the screen. In addition, the touch screen feature of the iPad was very responsive and performed as if the screen protector were not there.4. With the case on, I found that the power, the home and the volume buttons were very responsive to light touch. There was no need to exert substantial pressure to get them to function properly.5. In my opinion, the star of the show is the leather hand strap on this case. It is very stylish, elegant, gives added protection from accidental drops of the device, and makes holding the device very comfortable.  It is adjustable to fit most hand sizes and rotatable to various angles for easy and comfortable viewing of the device. This feature reduces the fatigue of holding the device for long periods. Makes me wonder how did I live without this feature before.6.  The kickstand is made of metal and is very sturdy. It has a bottle opener on it.  It is a good feature to have, but not necessary for my purposes.Cons:None that I would consider a deal breaker.Conclusion:All in all, this is an excellent case for the iPad Air. I rated it a 5/5."}]}, {"title": "B00HNGB1YS", "paragraphs": [{"qas": [{"question": "What about case?", "id": "0c092a614f9ac007103523525fe31e2c", "answers": [{"text": "The Gladius mini is a durable case", "answer_start": 0}, {"text": "the case is rather unattractive if you don't account the leather strap", "answer_start": 730}], "is_impossible": false}], "context": "The Gladius mini is a durable case. It has a screen protector and is very thick. It gives you a sense of security when standing with your device. The leather strap is a nice touch and it fits so nice once you adjust it. This makes it so much easier to hold your ipad. This would be perfect for someone who has to walk around while doing stuff on the job. Perfect when you're trying to look at plans or lists while carrying out tasks. It's near impossible to drop this thing. You can also rotate the strap so you don't have to twist your wrist off to view it in a different orientation. The one thing though I had so much trouble opening the kickstand due to the fact that I didn't realize the angle I had to pull to open it. Also the case is rather unattractive if you don't account the leather strap. It just seems weird to have a nice strap and then have an ugly exterior. I give this a 4 out of 5. Durable and secure. But needs some aesthetics worked on."}]}]}
