Title: Personal accounts of fear and bravery.
Review: I read this book in about 4 nights straight. I couldn't put it down. I wasnt around back then, but this book made me realize just how lucky I am and how easy we have it in todays world compared to those times during and after the second world war. The stories of their experiences made me laugh one moment and cry in another.

Title: AWESOME!
Review: I purchased this camera from a camera store, unfortunately not...(off this website), I could've saved some money. I purchased the camera because I was spending my summer in Europe, and I wanted a good camera to take with me. Good isn't the word, the camera was fantastic. The pictures were very sharp and clear, I haven't seen a camera as inexpensive as this one with the picture clarity it has. The camera is very easy to load and doesn't suck the juice of of the batteries like other cameras. The camera is very comfortable too, it isn't too big or too small, just right. I am very happy that I purchased this camera, because when i look at my pictures from my trip, they are perfect, as is the camera.

Title: The MINISCULE VIEWFINDER is a TREMENDOUS Problem
Review: Believe me, and believe any other review that criticizes the tiny viewfinder on this camera. It may have top-quality optics and an abundance of admirable features, but you're likely to miss most photo opportunities (especially in twilight and darkness) as you struggle to place the viewfinder over your eye.Most of the photos we obtained with this Minox captured the moment after a great picture COULD HAVE been taken, and even then were generally off-center. I thought I would become acclimated, but frustration got the better of me and the camera was returned for refund.

Title: This camera has flaws
Review: The viewfinder is VERY small. The viewfinder is also located too near to the center of the camera, so I kept bumping my nose into it when I take pictures. Also, the camera failed to rewind the film automatically, so I had to manually take out the roll, which ruined all my pictures, all the precious shots I took. I had to return the camera.

Title: JUNGLE FUN!
Review: I am often asked how I find these films to show my friends & my answer is "I Don't Know! I think they find me"! these are not digitally remastered & are in MONO but they are fun & are a time capsule of the kind of films that would get made to cash in on the then beginning of the TIKI/EXOTICA movement that today I so LOVE! This is best enjoyed when watching with friends having a Fruity Little Concoction in a Breezy TIKI environment! If you can't do that then dim the light in your living room have a Rum & Coke & have at it! Good Times!

Title: The Morrissey of America...
Review: I saw an ad for this CD a couple years ago & ordered it. Found myself listening to it more than The Smiths or solo Morrissey. He really sounds like the Morrissey of America, but has his own hip, melancholic vibe. The title song, The End Of Everything is a fabulous anthem of Sadness. Coulter, if yer reading this- don't give up! Please record more wonderful, melodic odes to fallen angels and relationships.

Title: Not worth the wait
Review: I ordered this book a few months ago but publication of it was delayed. When it finally I arrived, I was disappointed. This book is primarily aimed at people wanting to open a DVD authoring business and spends much more time on business models, work orders and project work flow than on the technical details of creating DVDs. The included DVD is a planetarium-style slide show of astronomical information. While it is interesting, it does not illustrate the full flexibility of a DVD or even many of the options commonly used in feature film DVDs.Jim Taylor's DVD Demystified is far more useful to me.

Title: Very dissappointing
Review: I was eagerly looking forward to reading this book. I was dissappointed by it's contents. Despite the title there is very little information about how to actually produce a DVD. It concentrates more on the business aspect.A shame considering the authors experience. His reluctance to delve deeper into an authoring program of choice (obviously Scenarist) results in a shallow example of how you produce a DVD. As of this writing, still no book exists that actually teaches you the production process. Amazing considering it's rapidly growing popularity.

Title: Otra persona sin talento que decide hacer un disco.
Review: Este disco no es representativo de la mejor música de Puerto Rico. Quedé desilusionado al escuchar el disco y sus canciones sin sentido y llenas de frases irrelevantes. No es un disco que trascienda, y recomiendo a la artista una reconsideración en su opción de estilo de música. Tal vez un disco de merengue hubiera tenido éxito.

Title: Not representative of good Puertorican music
Review: The music and the lyrics are disappointing as the price I paid for the CD. The sound of the recording is awful, the lyrics are childish, and their objective seems to be happy little songs. These songs would make great jingles. I recommend another choice, because there are great new artists that come from Puerto Rico for example Marc Anthony, Jessica Cristina and Millie Correger. If you hear this CD you will understand my point of view, and thank me for warning you about not buying it.

Review: This is an absolutely gorgeous CD, but track 11 on CD 2 is corrupted! I downloaded it twice, and both times it stopped 20 seconds before the end and then started skipping.

Title: Rust spots
Review: This is a good knife and prefer it over some of my benchmade for edc. It is super sharp and stays that way. Perfect size. The only downside is that I got rust spotting from normal carrying. My pockets are usually pretty steamy but still shouldn't do that. I had the same problem with the all stainless endura. I stopped carrying that one after a week. In summation, if you don't mind a little bit of rust spotting then this is an awesome knife.

Title: Recommended
Review: This audio story is not just read out in a monotone voice, but acted out with sound effects. The 3 CD's give the whole story of how Bane breaks Batman's back and how Azreal takes over as the new Batman. If you are familiar with the story or not, it is entertaining to hear it take place in much quicker time than you can read it. Entertaining for yourself or for the kids! Recommended for road trips! About 3 hours long.

Title: An audio trip to Gotham
Review: The Knightfall Saga is well executed, especially given the inherent difficulty of transforming an action-heavy adventure from the highly visual medium of comics into a format that uses only music, sound effects and actors' voices. Bob Sessions brings a wonderful depth to the role of Batman; you can literally feel Batman's utter exhaustion as he fights to restore order to Gotham City.I've never read any of the comics that inspired this audio drama, so I can't comment on whether or not this production does the original storyline justice.This audio drama assumes that the listener is somewhat familiar with Batman's history. However, even the casual Batman follower will find the story relatively easy to follow--and highly entertaining.

Title: Laughable (for kids only)
Review: Batman sounds like Van Helsing's Hugh Jackman and Bane sounds like Bela Lugosi Dracula. Azreal voiced by the guy who voices Batman and during the third disc sounds like Darth Vader. Joker is annoying and the other villains sound like wannabes. Alfred is the only enjoyable voice acting and that's because Michael Gough (Alfred) from Batman and Batman Returns.At times the music reminds me of the original TV show. Don't listen to the boneheads reviewing this, this is really bad and it goes to show you that 90 percent of a making a movie (in this case a audio track with music) casting is the most important element. The script is also rewritten for children can understand.Fans of The Batman will eat up. Fans of Batman: The Animated Series will loathe it. Read the darker comics that inspired this flop instead. But if you find Joel Schumacher the superior Batman (sighs) than this is for you. Fans of the darker Batman will vomit choking it down.

Review: Being of Italian decent on my mother's side, I was overwhelmed by this fantastic collection of Italian accomplishments. This book gives detailed information about contributions made by Italians and Italian-Americans. Finally, a "User friendly" book which is quite addictive and difficult to put down. This reminds me of those famous stories my mother use to tell me as a boy. I only wish she had the opportunity to experience this pleasant and enjoyable reading material. I highly suggest giving this book to any young person who is trying to discovering his/her great rich Italian background. It is all here!

And, sorry, Leon, but I don't even want to be Italian. I've got a better idea. Why don't you do one on Jewish or Irish people? They're pretty entertaining. The book probably deserves five stars, but I'd like to see some graphics in it, so I just gave it four.

Title: This is one of my top 3 Joe Pass albums.
Review: It is real easy to tell who is soloing on this one. If the lines are inticate and smooth while the rhythm underneath is sparse and and very simple----you have joe soloing. If the soloing has bluesy but in a pentatonic sense (kind of sophmoric playing) with killer rhythm underneath, then Herb is soloing. They complement eachother nicely, but Joe really stands out.Herb does some humorous stuff like playing percussion on the git. Joe says "No mustard, No mustard", and RB says "play something fast" before Seven come eleven. A few jokes and nice quotes in the solos, especially Charlie Christian.This is a top Ray Brown album in my book. I transcribed all the lines for every tune. This is how bass should be played. Jake Hanna does a sweet job throughout. One of the many great Joe Pass albums made, complete with spontanaiety and fun. Very musical.

Title: Herb & Joe Are Good!
Review: Herb Ellis And Joe Pass do wonderful jobs each soloing and complementing each other. They have some great songs, and solos as well, though at times it is hard to distinguish between who is playing what. However, their styles and their tone change contribute to us knowing who is playing. This is Seven Come Eleven with another cd, however, it is not hybrid. The solos are great. Unfortunately there is not a song player set up here yet, but I assure you this is worth your money if you like trio jazz kind of stuff. It takes a while to get used to but its great.P.S Please Check Out My Other Reviews!

Review: If you could only own one Wilson Pickett record, this might be the one to get. And if you can own more than one, you certainly ought to have this one. Not so much because of the break-out hits, which are available elsewhere, but because of the less familiar tracks. If you love Wilson Pickett's singing for the things that make it unique, you should pick this up just for the sake of the astonishing "It's All Over." All over indeed; there's just nothing left after this.

Title: Yvette Is A Dish !!
Review: O.K., so this movie is a typical Roger Corman production with the usual Roger Corman production values. That makes it, of course, a really worthwhile film. Corman may have made some weirdos, but all of his movies are fun. Tommy Lee Jones was perfectly cast in Jackson County Jail. I think perhaps only Steve Railsback could have matched the performance. Yvette? This is as cruise-speed sexy as she has ever been. And, her performance is Grade A. This movie has a large cult following for various reasons. And, even though it's not the best of it's genre, it is a film worth the price. Good ole' Roger Corman. Good ole' Yvette!! Good ole' Tommy Lee!! They click.

Review: I ordered this wrench set because I needed the extended reach in an application I was working on (an electrical product). The title described the item as a 9-piece torx security-type wrench set made by Torx. First, only the short ends of the wrenches have security torx holes. Second, I don't believe that the product is made by Torx; the quality of the wrench hole centering arms do not look precise. I returned the product and received refund, minus shipping cost.

Review: Cheap set was only 50% functional. The short end of the "L" had the hole in the end, which fits the security screw feature.

I gave up on the cheap "Made in China" product and found a cheap "Made in South Korea" product that finally got the job done.

Review: A very inexpensive sprayer that seems to be well manufactured. Unfortunately, this is where the story turns sour. My Hudson 1 Gallon "Eliminator" sprayer came COMPLETELY DISASSEMBLED with about 10-12 different parts for me to figure out. The assembly instructions are unclear and the illustrations are so poor as to be worthless. After about 45 minutes of assembling, disassembling, checking and re-checking the compression fittings and "O" rings, I was unable to get this sprayer to work quite right. I'll be returning this sprayer today. Don't waste your time with this one.

Review: Simple: the parts, other than bottle and pump insert described in the included instructions, were not in the box. Some other parts, which do not seem to have any relationship to the sprayer bottle or its pump insert, were in the box. I have no clue what what goes where. I doubt if anyone else would either. This is not rocket science. I suspect a mix-up in the packaging. Not worth sending back since this was about $15 to start.

Title: problems (not with mac os X)
Review: I have had a terrible time getting this thing to work with windows XP. There were errors on the installation, I contacted support, got a lame, involved and not very helpful response. I de-installed the software hoping to go back to the website later to find a comprehensive new installer but have had no luck after 6 months. I have a fairly "vanilla" laptop that has no problems intalling other software, and I really hate installation problems with out of the box software. Perhaps you will have more luck than I did, but... I would have RMA'd the thing if I did not have a mac. BUT... Now I just use it with my wife's Mac OSX machine and ITunes, and with that it works perfectly.

Title: NO BUY!
Review: I got this as a present, and I was so excited to have an Mp3 player. I was all excited to load up some songs onto this sucker and go, but it didn't have enough room for more than 16 songs!!! I think that this is terrible because the software's terrible and it takes such a long time. The sound quality is totally TERRIBLE. This is not worth this much money and whoever priced it must have been on glue, I would just pay a little extra for a better mp3 player that might have some more effort put into it. Now I have an iRiver player, and it is totally awesome. It can store so much and the design isn't quite as bad.

Review: The support software was extremely cumbersome and downright painful to use. Although it claims to have 128kb of memory, it held less than ten songs. ...

Title: Defective
Review: My Nomad II-C MP3 player was defective right out of the box, I shipped it back to Creative for an RMA and they signed for my player on Feb 19. It is still sitting on the "tech" bench right now, 6 weeks later. I call almost everyday and they tell me that their testing department has had problems, they will test my player as soon as the department is up and running again!!I will never purchase another Creative product again.

Title: Broke after 110 days of use NO WARRANTY
Review: Hello, I bought this product back in January of 2003 thinking that it would last for a bit. Instead it unexpectedly stopped working at the end of April and since it is past the 90-day warranty period the manufacturer will not assume responsibility for the item. The product worked very well, the software that comes with the MP3 player is very good and it is easy to use. However, I must say that since this product broke so soon and the warranty does not protect it, makes me very upset with this purchase.

Title: This mp3 player was a good starter
Review: When I first got this player I realized that it was a good purchase and worth the money. It played the music as well as any other mp3 player i had listened to.I had dropped it alot and it still did not mess up which was very good becuase you will drop it sometimes. Once I started getting some songs I started to realize how limited its memory was. I had about 35 songs on there and i was basically out of room for more. This player is good for someone who doesnt want to have tons of songs like the larger and more expensive models. Finally, it has a good voice recording option and with a download from creative.com you can customize all your settings. This is a very good starter mp3 player

Title: Great Product, but outdated technology
Review: I bought a Nomad model exactly like this one (only without the built in memory) way back when Minidisks and MP3 players were first becoming popular. It was a great deal for the money I spent, and the MP3 player worked great. I was able to take it on runs, car trips, to school, and everywhere else and it would hold up. The size is nice as well, it can easily fit in the palm of one's hand. However, this MP3 player uses a lesser known type of media card. It is available, but I'd highly suggest a player with a CF/CFII or sD card slot. If youre not going to use more than 128 megs (which is alot for most) then don't worry about that. Also, this technology, comparatively speaking, is outdated. For $50 more you can get a much nicer player and more memory expansion options. But, for most this player will do it. Creative Labs is great about releasing firmware and software upgrades. If you just need something to play <128MB of MP3's and wav's, this is for you[].

Title: Try it before you buy it
Review: I had envisioned the 4 hour voice record time as perfect for my classes. The microphone has extremely poor pickup quality and you have to speak directly into it to pick anything up. There is no provision for an external mic. The instructions are extremely brief and poorly written and left out steps. I had to go to customer service via email to find out how to record. Creative Labs customer service was very good and responded rapidly. I am sticking with my $30 microcassette recorder.

Title: Very very nice MP3 Player
Review: The NomadIIc MP3/WMA/RECORDER overall is a very very good product.PROs:LightweightSound Quality is very goodInexpensiveCan be expandable (up to 192MB)Can download new music formatsCONs:No battery Charger PakNo CarryCase or Armstrap [Just a belt Clip]This player is a very good product, even though it doesnt have a carrycase or armstrap, the belt clip is very secure and can be used to run. Also, for those who listen to music while you sleep, the NomadIIc can be set to turn off the power at a certain time frame so that when you fall asleep, you save battery life and be able to continue sleeping without the fuss of turning it off and then you dont like sleeping again. I got my IIc (64MB, but it is the same compared with a 128MB or a 32MB) for $ at YesMicro.com. Amazon is a great place to buy the IIc but you can find it for a little cheaper.-Great Player for value and expandability.

Title: Best Product!
Review: This is by far the best Mp3 player I have used. It took me about 30 minutes to orient myself to its controls, but I already feel at home with it! The menu is great and easy to navigate, and the sound is excellent! I give this product 5 stars! I would give it more, but Amazon.com won't let me! : ) The only downside to this product is the fact that there is no AM/FM radio on it, but I will live. If you are debating over this and another product, GET THIS ONE!!

Title: DO NOT buy this product, I repeat DO NOT buy !!
Review: I bought this Creative Labs 128 MB NOMAD IIc MP3 Player about 7 months ago, one thing struck me is the warranty, it has only 90 days warranty at that time. It was good at the beginning, but now for reason I have absolutely no idea, it stop working, nothing, nada, zip, it just gone; now I understand why it has such a short warranty. Try others like I-River, I heard they are pretty good.

Title: Do not buy this
Review: I haven't even owned this mp3 player for a full hour and I'm already returning it to the store. I spent half an hour trying to load music onto this and ended up doing it completely by accident. When I checked its memory it was almost half full, I barely loaded 12 tracks onto it! Ontop of that the interface is completely confusing, I can't figure out anything on this player. I was told that it could hold at least a hundred songs, expect more like 30!Do not by this!! Its deffinetly worth it to pay more for a better mp3 player.

Title: Worked for about 5 minutes
Review: I purchased this MP3 player because of the good reviews on consumer report and the reviews here on Amazon[.com]. Unfortunately I have to give it the lowest rating. When I first got it I tried the voice recording and it worked fine, although it wasn't very clear and the recording level was low. (Also, the voice files were NVF format, which cannot play on any other software and cannot be converted to MP3 or WAV or anything else)Then I tried to download music and it just wouldn't work. An device "error" would always occur. Then the menu screen would freeze and I couldn't choose any of the icons and it wouldn't turn off without removing the batteries. And when plugged to the computer a USB/PC screen would appear, the when you unplug it, the screen would remain. You'd have to remove the batteries to turn it off.

Title: SWEET!!
Review: I am currently waiting for the Nomad 11c, but have used it (friends got it) and i rocks!!!!!!!!!!!! It is extremely easy to use, has awesome head-phones, a backlight display for when your in the dark (must have) and great, i mean great sound quaility. This thing can bring down the house, and it fits in the palm of your hand! It can hold about 4 hourse of music, which in my opinion is just the right amount. If your a newby to the world of mp3's, this is were you should start! The nomad 11c 128 and 64 mb, is by far the quintessence of mp3 players.

Title: Couldn't Be Happier
Review: Ordered on Saturday, got it Tuesday afternoon around 2pm. 20 minutes later I am listening to all my MP3s. With a computer that notoriously rejects new installations, had NO problem. Set up was quick transferred about 15 mp3s in about 5 minutes, disconnected, ready for the gym.I can't speak to the long term performance but so far I couldn't be happier with my latest, favorite, little toy

Title: A good buy
Review: I was forced to buy a new MP3 player when SonicBlue decided not to support XP drivers for their Rave 2100 product line (their customer service is the worst I have ever dealt with)--and since I vowed never to buy another product from Sonic Blue, I bought the Nomad. Im glad I did, it is a great product for the money. Sounds good, easy navigation, and the has enough memory to keep me occupied in most situations. I did notice one issue however: when the headphones are accendentially pulled out of the jack (but not all the way out of the jack), the player tends to completely hang...you need to remove the battery to reset it. Other than that it has been performing flawless.

Title: good product
Review: i received this mp3 player for my birthday about a year and a half ago. it has never failed to work and it is really great with battery life and stuff. i bring it to the gym with me and i have dropped it about 7 billion times and it has never broken. the only complaint i have is that it only holds about 18 songs at a time. i am not really computer literate, so i needed an mp3 player that was simple, and that's what this is. it's not complicated at all, and it remembers where you left off when you turn it off. i would recommend this product to anyone

Title: Good Unit Bad Weak Software
Review: Have had this unit for a couple years. Also have a 3rd gen 15 gb iPod. Size and weight are major pluses. With expansion card over two hours music. No hard drive, no skips.The Creative software is poor. I really dislike it. I have to have the original cd just to get the most recent versions. Go to Red Chair Software and get Notmad software which is Windows Explorer like. Very nice and fast compared the Creative's.One AA battery is very nice.For a quick music fix get the Nomad.

Title: Works great for my workouts.
Review: A nice MP3 player for the price. Sure, the design is a little long in the tooth now, but it still gets the job done. I use mine for listening to music for workouts -- works great. It seems to be durable too. I've bounced it off the floor several times without apparent harm. The software works okay for me under 98SE, though I don't change the music selection that often. Added a cheap smartmedia upgrade no problem. The display is clear and the menus make sense. I don't use the headphones that came with it, so I can't really comment on those. Volume is fine with the Radio Shack earbuds I use. I use rechargeable batteries, so I don't worry much about the battery life. It actually seems pretty reasonable anyway. If you can get this player for the right price and don't need a huge song capacity, you could do a lot worse.

Title: Good for the money
Review: It came as very small and easy to use. Not that much trouble as described by some other reviewers about transfering music to the device. I did not try the earphone that came with it because I got a Sony, and the sound quality is great (when they work together). I am quite satisfied with it given the price; so far, the only disappointment is that, music cannot shuffle automatically, so if you're tired of listening to the songs in the same order, you might have to reload it on the computer.

Title: Great unit, great price
Review: I've had the Nomad IIc for more than a year. It's just terrific. The sound is great. There are a few music equalizing settings that will improve the sound considerably, so you will want to check it out The price you cannot beat. The software is very easy to use. Obviously, you will want to get a memory card down the road. This unit was just right for me, so I am giving it a five star.

Title: No disappointments here
Review: I have been very pleased after 2 months with this product. Small size, light weight. I have dropped it twice while running, continues to function perfectly. I changed the included behind the head earphones because they did not stay on me while running nor fit inside my motorcycle helmet. Volume is good. Setting 12 running, 15-18 on motorcycle depending on my speed. Included software very easy to understand and use. Rips songs very quickly. No complaints. All products should be this good.

Title: excelent mp3 player!
Review: I bought this mp3 player at the start of 2003 and I have had no troubles. I bought the 128mb version and the songs I put on there are 96kbps and I can fit 50 songs on it! The only thing I dont like about it is the battery life(10 hours)compared to my sony radio(48 hours) but I dont mind it that much because I got some rechargable batteries(it only needs one)Its very light weight and has never skiped.I could put two in the palm of my hand.It is built strong and sturdy because I have dropped several times and nothing is wrong with it. ...

Title: worst customer service ever
Review: Gave this thing as a gift, front display cracked after a few months, had to send it back. I told them in email(10/25) that it was no longer under warrenty, how much would it cost to replace the display. They said that it was under warrenty, just ship it to them. I shippped it to them on 10/28 (turn around time 10 days?) and they have finally called me(11/26) and said that they ran tests and the results are that the display is cracked. I paid $25 for the test, and they want an additional $50. I don't mind paying to fix it, but frankly, I feel jacked around. I will never buy another creative labs product again.
