The best book I have ever read!
|
It features several trading systems that can tell me when/where to buy, where to place stops, how to protect profits and when/where to pyramid mechanically.

This CD is good but.....
|
I really wish they would come out with a 2nd CD with all the songs performed in the movie. Most people I have spoken to about this all agree. I hope you agree as well.My favorite song wasn't on it and I was very disappointed. When I listened to the whole thing and the ending song wasn't on there it was a shock. Ewan's voice gives me the chills and that song is one of the best he sings. Other than that I LOVE THIS MOVIE AND CD.

I ordered a 3X t-shirt that turned out to be the size of a large! The price was great. It wasn't worth mailing back so will give it to a smaller person for a present.

No Charge

I purchased 2 batteries for a set of failing OEM batteries. The battery half life was quite short and did not seem to accept a charge,this was repeated in 2 separate phones and chargers. They were duds or not new stock I suspect. Watch out.

Gross, far out , and a stupid and predictable theme
|
I would like to report that this was one of the worst books I have ever read. Who murdered who? How did the other party die? It was clearly the work of an amuture! I think there should have been more action and a better explanation of the reason for Catherine's demise.

NOT COMPATABLE WITH WINDOWS 7!
|
This adapter worked ok for XP. It was pretty finicky but it worked ok when it worked. However, I came here to let everyone know that this adapter is NOT SUPPORTED BY WINDOWS 7 and probably wont be in the near future. So if you are thinking of purchasing this and you just upgraded to win7 or are thinking to upgrade and you already own it. You will either need to wait for a driver(who knows how long that will take since its not out already) or buy something else.Cheers!

Read anywhere - privately!
|
Hooray! I love my Kindle. It is so easy to carry that library now - not too heavy anymore. And guess what, I can read whatever I want, in privacy, with no one knowing what I'm reading at lunch! Really, I'm mostly into the mysteries and the like, but every now and again they have some steamy parts that I don't want to share.

A BIG WATSE OF MONEY
|
Purchased this dryer 2 months ago and it started to make a humming noise about a week ago and within a day is was not working. Seems to me this must have been a refurbished hair dryer because I have my old one that I purchased from QVC 3 years ago and it is still in perfect working condition. Don't waste your money ordering from this vendor. Something is not right that it worked for only a short amount of time but long enough that I am unable to return it. This is one very disatisfied customer. If I could have given it no stars I would have done so.

Good historical novel
|
I will admit, I bought & read this book only because of all of the hoopla about it. I'm mystified by the hoopla, but found the book an interesting afternoon with a historical novel. So what if they take some "artistic license" with facts...its a NOVEL, not a reference book! As a novel, it kept me interested.

Guitar Players Beware

Stephen is a great composer. I you would love to learn the cords to his songs for the most part they are not here. I had to transpose most of the songs I wanted to play. The author was very fond of Eb. I have never writen a song in Eb and the publisher loves it. Unless your great at reading music and/or transposing I would stay away from this one.

Dull as Dirt
|
A Wrinkle in Time was a book I had to read for a class assignment. I frankly hated this book to pieces. I felt this way because it just didn't really catch my interest. It is very boring and although it is extremely creative with the mythical creatures and such, this book was just in simple terms dull. I rarely ever found myself being excited to know what happened next. Sometimes the book is hard to follow and I know I should cut the book slack for being around 40 years old, but I just can't. If I had the option I probably wouldn't give the book any stars for its lack of excitement. Although some of you may find the concept about traveling through space by magic extremely interesting, I don't, and I find the concept unoriginal. I gave the star to the book because it was creative in some areas.

This is more of an experiment with great results as opposed to scientific data which doesn't mean it isn't valid, just know it could be considered opinion.

I'm no Spook(Spy), but this looked and felt REAL!
|
I not a spy in real life, but I saw one on my TV. This mini-series seemed to have all the details just right. It felt like the real world. Their were consequences for every action, and the action was realistic, therefore believable. And the Spycraft, I believe was real. Peter Struass is now one of my favorite actors. If you are someone who wants to see movies about spies that aren't full of cliches, this one is for you. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is that the production had a few burps in the audio. Some of the post production looping(re-recording dialog that was not captured well on location) was not as good as it could have been. Despite the small audio burps, this is a GREAT mini-series.

Wonderfully written. Caustic wit with a touch of paganism
|
Simply wonderful. It's a bit light, but sometimes we need a good, easy read. My favorite part of this book and the second in the series was Edghill's excellent character development of Bast, our reluctant heroine. Highly recommended for a dark night when it's a touch cool outside and the wind knocking at your door.

i'm happy with this Attache, it can fit my 17.3-Inch Laptop with big headphones and 3 or 4 small Western Digital passports + papers and even some clothes!i only wish the materials of the locks, the outside and the inside were better quality (softer/thiner and more metal, velvet, leather like). but for the price 100$ this is decent. not that i'm saying its not good but this is only me. feels more like plastic and nylon especially the inside.

Important
|
Chase of a Lifetime is an important book. As its author suggests, autism is becoming more and more prevalent in our society, and is currently outpacing all other forms of diagnosed developmental disabilities. During a recent event featuring Temple Grandin, she stated one of the keys to her successfully adapting to autism in her life was the early childhood intervention she recieved from family and teachers. In this book, parents and professionals can discover some of the techniques, such as the individual education plan, parents should demand as part of their child's education. Parents should also not allow this to a boilerplate plan, but must insist that it contain a unique and valid assessment relevant to their child, and specific, measurable goals and target behaviors that can be taught, reviewed, and that are a valid skills for developing daily living skills.Read this book and learn about these things.

Turns off after 1 hour!
|
This is a good little machine if you like your coffee beans ground at the instant the coffee is brewed. I've had it almost a year without any trouble. HOWEVER, the reason I'm only rating it a 2 is because it fails at the most basic level by not keeping the coffee hot after 1 hour (the hot plate turns off), and there is no way to override it. So when I brew coffee in the morning and start work, by the time I am ready for my second cup (after being on the phone, checking emails, etc) the coffee is cold and I have to microwave it. Just keep that in mind. Otherwise, it's fine, but I am surprised the designers think 1 hour of hot coffee is acceptable.

Absolutely Charming!
|
My daughter received this dollhouse as a gift for her third birthday and has not stopped playing with it. It's a charming replica of the house in the Madeline stories coupled with the practical aspect of being a carry case for the 8" Madeline dolls. My daughter loves to take her Madeline doll, pose her in front of the vanity table painted on one of the inside doors and proclaim how beautiful Madeline is. This case makes it possible for her to enjoy the dolls at home and away. There are drawers to open and close and hangers to hang Madeline's versatile wardrobe on. I'm not sure which of us loves playing with this more!!

Okay, but gets old quickly
|
This game would be FAR better if the campaign mode weren't the same every time through, or if you didn't have to start at the beginning every time you lose a single battle (playing the same early levels over and over gets REALLY old). It might be worth $10, but don't expect it to be one of your new favorites. I probably wouldn't play it at all if I weren't a huge Risk fan.

RUN AWAY!
|
I bought this and a Seagate 250 HD. After about 9 months of me being lulled into a false sense of security (read this is NOT making backups!) the drive started the click of death. I was furious! I thought it was the drive. It made sense...the drive clicked so it must be that. After almost shelling out $1K I thought I would try the drive in another computer. The drive came up and had all of my data. I can only think that the power supply to the ULTRA diminished enough in voltage to cause the HD head not to be able to un-park or move correctly.As a precaution I will take advantage of the Seagate 5 year warranty and put the replacement drive in a different case.BTW: this drive was NOISEY!

Howlin on the air with wolfman jack is the best on Ebay

It's a radio wild man, yelling, howlin' jumping up and down and playing the wildest hottest hits. It's Wolfman Jack. Crazy phone calls, nutty jokes and that darn wolf howling. It's radio when radio was exciting, fresh and entertaining. That's the "howlin on the air" CD in a nut shell. Great sound quality, great oldies and lots of great memories. Google Wolfman Jack for great websites that have interesting facts about the Wolf.

Armband Too Small, Overall Low Quality
|
I am no muscle man by any means, but this armband is way too tight for me. The elastic stretches a little, but it seriously feels like a blood pressure cuff every time I get it above my elbow. The quality of the case is pretty low, too. I expected it would be thicker, it is maybe slightly thicker than a latex condom. Doesn't seem like it would provide much protection if dropped, but it does do a good job of keeping the player from sliding across the table when I have it plugged in. I would say definitely avoid, there has got to be a better value out there.

Soft targets and biased selection
|
This book pays little attention to the peer reviewed scientific literature on environmental problems. That is the basis for policy and has established the seriousness of many environmental problems. In addition to picking "soft targets" of writings by advocates, the book ignores inflated claims by industry about the economic losses that will accompany environmental regulation. This demonstrates its lack of balance.

This is the best book I have ever read, and I have read quite a few (including all of the Redwall books, even the Great Redwall Feast). I think that Martin is the coolest (well, second coolest) character in any of the BJ books. Skarlath from the Outcast is the coolest. Anyway, I make it a point to read this book about once every 3 months. I'll probably have to get a new copy soon if I'm not careful, and I should be careful, because Brian Jacques himself autographed mine!

Especially the Japanese mini-lp cd reissues...incredible attention to detail, and the songs are straight off "Beatles '65"......."Nobody Knows" is easily as good as "No Reply" or "I'll Be Back"....TREMENDOUS in a word!!!!!

Great Video and Audio and Great song's list

I got this Eagles HD-DVD yesterday. It was a awesome transfer. The video quality is very very good. The sound is a reference quality. The highs and lows are perfectly captured. I have a HK receiver and Bose system. The selection of songs for this event are very good. Lots of songs, 29 in number if you are particular. The first thing you notice when you play this HD-DVD is the sound ( DTS - Master ) which is very crystal clear and crisp highs and very good bass and of course the picture quality is very good too. I am glad that i bought this HD-DVD. You wont regret this purchase. Buy this only if you have HD-DVD player. I wonder how come HD-DVD format is dead. It is awesome.

Not for super-sensitive skin
|
I picked up some Burt's Bees products because the company claims its products are good for people with sensitive skin and I was tired of using Aveeno products all the time. Well, I learned the hard way that the coconut foot lotion is not for sensitive skin. After a couple of days of using the lotion, I had hundreds of painful little blisters break out all over my hands and feet! I have been able to use other Burt's Bees products with no reaction, but this is enough to turn me away from the entire line... which is a shame because it all smells/feels so wonderful.

DISSAPOINTED! Maybe mine is expired...
|
This is my first time ever using this product so I didn't know what to expect. I HATE it!. My hands do not feel anywhere near clean after using it, I can eat a meal, then use this product and my hands STILL smell like food. When I pump the foam into my hand, I have to quickly rub it into my hands before it drips down my wrist or through my fingers; I have to "catch it" as it's dripping down my wrist, no time to even put the cap back on. When I rub it in my hands, it feels very slick, like I'm rubbing in water. I've used foam sanitizer before and they were just that, FOAM, not liquid. So I am VERY dissatisfied and I will NEVER buy this again. I wish I had used it prior to purchasing so I would have known how it was suppose to be. And if this IS how it is suppose to be, then I would have never bought it. Unfortunately I have a case (6 bottles) of this crap. And 4 out of the 6 (that I've tried) are watered down drippy foam.

The Monkey Institute

More pathetic trash from The Discovery Institute. Their Christian Fundamentalist agenda was exposed in the Dover Trial for all to see. They produce bad science that has been repeatedly exposed as such by the scientific community, but that doesn't deter them. They are not interested in science, but in duping an ill-informed public into accepting their agenda. Real science doesn't need think tanks subsidised by wealthy fanatics or bought and paid for politicians. Real science becomes acceptable by virtue of its verifiable results. Read a real book on this trial: Monkey Girl by Edward Humes.

If you love horses, you'll love The Horses of Proud Spirit written by Melanie Sue Bowles. It'll make you laugh. It'll make you cry.

But with the help of generous and devoted people like Melanie Sue Bowles and her husband, Jim, maybe The Horses of Proud Spirit will spread the word: there are still a few humans who really care, and who want to make the world a better place for all of its precious creatures.Russ Heitz, Sarasota, Florida, USAAuthor of soon-to-be-released suspense novel, "Crosshairs"

don't waste your money, where is the mediteranean?
|
Thankfully my cover was damaged so I am returning it. However, I would have returned it anyway. Where in the healthy mediteranean's diet is "low calorie sweetner" and "liquid eqq whites"? This is just a low calorie diet with fish, fruit, veggies and the like which you should eat anyway. It's mostly recipes which is why I was interested. The recipes however feature artifical sweetners (lots of them). I don't see where that fits in traditional mediterranean fare. They are been proven to be dangerous. So, this is really a low calorie, low fat diet with artificial sweetners. You will lose weight but will you really be healthy?

Wanted to give 2.5 starts
|
I bought this book because it seemed like it would be a good resource to learn how to teach basic tumbling to my athletes and clients (I am a strength coach and own a gym). The book does not do a great job explaining these movements to the lay person.For the price, I am very underwhelmed. The illustrations are very poor. Just stick figures doing rough approximations of the movements. The tips and instructions are not very clear, and it seems you need a background in tumbling to fully understand it.To be fair, I haven't thoroughly read it. When I do, and if my first impression is wrong I will update this. But as it stands, do not buy this book if you want a resource to teach beginners how to tumble if you do not have a tumbling background.

Good, but
|
I know there are 50 some odd reviews, but I needed to vent a little. Got this book for Christmas. Been a fan of Terry Brooks for years. Liked book one, and this one is good. It continues the story, and there is plenty of tension to keep you reading. But... you know it was coming... but, The first 150 pages is more review of where things are at. And Brooks tends to over explain what each character is thinking--especially the Ilse Witch. After page 150 or so, things pick up nicely, and the story is great. It's a little slow in going, as though Brooks needed to remind himself of what he wrote in Book 1.

Not worth the money.....
|
Sounds like a great idea but in action hardly worth the money paid. The battery compartment is hard to access and requires you to remove 2 tiny screws and insert 4 "C" batteries which weigh down the unit. The light is barely adequate for the task and the fan is a joke, it doesn't remove the smoke and at times actually blows it towards you. I felt like returning it after the first use but repacking it and going to UPS just wasn't worth the time and effort. Save your money and buy a light without the fan for a lot less.

Great Show!
|
I heard this show was a good watch on a spill.com review, so I checked it out and after watching the series I fell in love with it. Filled with Young British talent, it's a pretty great little supernatural-comedy. It's surprisingly dark and for once a T.V. show is not afraid to kill off characters. Well worth a watch and even if it doesn't get a second season, it is still worth the watch. CHECK IT OUT!

Powerful calculator thats easy for TI-82/TI-83 users
|
If you've ever used a TI-82, a TI-83, a TI-86, a TI-92, or a TI-89 :-), you'll be very fermiliar with the TI-89. Most commands are interchangable with the other TI graphing calculators. Since most classes use TI-82s or TI-83s, you can easily adapt the instructions of the teacher for use on the TI-89.The calculator is actually powered by the same processor as the Macintosh Plus/SE, so it is very fast when graphing, solving equasions, or playing games. The screen is sharp enough to hold several expressions and answers or display a smooth view of a curve.Functions include the excellent CAS (try "solve(0=1x^2+2x+3,x)"), basic scientific math functions, programs (games), matricies (like a primitive spreadsheet), graphing, statistics, and many other functions.

Does the job for about an hour
|
Educational value, one of the ratings criteria, is irrelevant for this toy, so this should be disregarded. But, as this was one of the criteria, I had to rate it low. Overall, this is a very good toy, but it because of the size of the bottle it blows bubbles for only about an hour. I also had to wiggle the bottle when it was low to get the flow going again. I had reasonable expectations for this toy, so I'm happy with the product for the price.

don't bother to read this
|
Why would anyone bother to read this when there is the lonely planet guide available? This is in my opinion a vastly inferior guide when compared not just to lonely planet but to many of the others available, it lacks organisation and detail.

The truth
|
Alot of reviews are saying the Edgar Rice Burroughs did not actually write "John Carter and the Giant of Mars". The truth is that he did. This is what happened and what causes confusion: a childrens publisher wanted a short version of a Edgar Rice Burroughs' novel. Mr. Burroughs was concerned that he could not keep it short enough for the publisher so he asked his son to help craft a shorter story. At the same time, Amazing Stories asked Edgar Rice Burroughs for another Mars novel. A full lenght one to serialize. Edgar took the short story and stretched it to a full novel. This is confirmed by several sources and by Edgar Rice Burroughs estate. It explains why some of the novel strays from the rest of the series. So, yes his son was involved, but it is wrong to say that Edgar Rice Burroughs did not write it. He did. Especially the novel version.Anyway, all of the Mars books are exciting and I recomend all the books in the series.

Paranoia books
|
I strongly dislike both What to Expect when You're Expecting and What to Expect the First Year. We are very interested in natural childbirth and attachment parenting (gentle parenting) and I just thought both of these books are filled with much poor advice. Certainly everyone has their own parenting styles and preferences, but for two books that SOO many people have, I think there are many better books out there. (Dr. Sears books I think are WAY better than these)

Meeting of the Minds & Hearts, Meeting Love
|
great novel in IR canon, esp newbies;w/issues:uneven female view @critical times;overly concerned w/racial differences poisons her relationship;uneven perspective lauding female attributes v. air time for male's;male thinks unusual, stereotypically degrading thought about a white female, timing & content nonsense. Climactic ending fueled by no-longer-blind faith, forgiveness, and love.

Arthrosoothe does soothe

This product warms and soothes and while it does have a fragrance it is not sickening or overpowering. It is worth it for a way to relieve sore muscles.

Waste of money...
|
I can't believe how duped I feel!!! This looked really cute on the box, and like it would be great fun for my baby and pony loving 3 year old. She doesn't even play with this thing because it says the same 2-3 phrases over and over, and you have to get the bottle just right with a lot of pressure to get it to work! It sounds like a robot in need of a new motor when it moves, and the legs pop out of joint too easy, so the thing doesn't even stand up sometimes. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! If she likes ponies, get her the little ones and a doll, because the doll at least is not as awkward for her to hold.

Refreshing, Melodic Pop
|
This LP sounds like a combination of Tonic and R.E.M. at their finest moments. Great hooks, clean-crisp production, combined with intelligent lyrics make this a winner! Standout tracks include "Everything You Want", "We Are", "Give You Back" and "Shackled". Definately worth the price of admission....

Bryan Ferry on American Idol? Not!
|
I'm so happy that people (especially young people) are still discovering this band and their unique musical styles. This album and the follow-up were extraordinary at the time they were released. Mr. Ferry's quixotic vocals backed by Brian Eno were then and still are interpreted by most as odd at best. I picked up the second album initially and went back quickly for this, the first. Roxy has a huge presence on my IPod and will always be a source of musical inspiration. My point being, finally, that one doesn't always need to be in perfect pitch to make a truly profound and lasting impression.

Not Universal
|
These are not universal as indicated in the description - they do not fit my Jenn-Air stove. And to top it off, the return window for these is just a few days after the item ships, which means that by the time you receive the item, it is too late to return them. I guess I will have to try to find someone who has a stove that will fit these as I have no use for them.

ONE OF YOUR TRUE DOGZ FOR LIFE
|
ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS THAT THE MEASAGES THAT COME FROM YOUR POETIC RHYMS ARE ORIGINAL IN EVERY WAY. ONE OF THE SONGS THAT TOUCHED ME THE MOST WAS TRACK #16: "READY TO MEET HIM". MY BROTHER WAS KILLED APRIL 4TH 1999. BUT BEFORE HE WAS KILLED, WE BOTH HAD A CHANCE TO LISTEN TO IT. HE WAS 27 YEARS OLD AND WAS COMLETELY LOST IN TERMS OF KNOWING WHERE HE STOOD WITH GOD. YOU LET US BOTH KNOW THAT EVEN THOUGH WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES,ITS OK! ITS ALL ABOUT WHAT WE LEARNED FROM THEM. YOU ALSO INSPIRED ME TO WRITE POETRY AGAIN. EVEN THOUGH YOU DONT KNOW ME, I FEEL YOU AND YOUR WORDS. SO "ONE LOVE"

Another disappointed customer
|
Well I got my switch over the weekend and did not work as advertised, it does not switch automatically as it should. I got 3 HDMI devices connected to the switch and the only way I can get it to switch is to disconnect the HDMI cable fromt the back of the switch, hardly what I had intended to do in the first place. I do not have any audio or video problems otherwise I will have it return ASAP. Manual mode works that is why I gave it another star, otherwise it would have been one. If you want a manual switch with some pretty lights, this one is for you. I may add that I tried every suggestion that I read with same results, only pulling the cable or turning the device off from the wall seems to work. Poor product.

I like this better than "The Used"'s Stuff.
|
The music of the band, "The Used" comes to mind when I hear this. It's that same type of Emo Punk with a more raw edge.The one thing that I disliked about "The Used" was when the one singer begins screaming in the background. His screaming sounds "cry-baby-like" and it really steals the show and ruins the song. Now with BND, there is some of that same type of screaming but it does not dominate. It is more in the background, also there does not seem to be as much. I am glad for this because both this band and "The Used" have some great sounding songs with great melodic arrangements but it is that screaming that took away from "The Used"'s material.I know there is another band - I think - similiar to BND and TU but I cannot think of it's name right now.

Mixed feelings
|
This book definately isn't anywhere near other battletech novels dealing with the clans.It may very well be 10 years into the truce that made the clan invasion come to a halt, and clanners had most likely had to adapt to living in the sphere (especially the ghost bears), but the way it's depicting in this book is causing unneccesary chills.The clan language and culture is mangled beyond belief. Dialogs between clanners are written as friendly banter, with no regard to ranks or status. Personal honour and accomplishments are replaced by friendships and "helping your fellow peers in need".Nystul should keep to designing games, and leave writing to people that know how it's done.To anyone interested in clan society, I'd recommand reading the Jade Phoenix Trilogy by Robert Thurston instead.

Good Book
|
I didnt think I would like this book. I have never really wanted kids so the whole pregnancy issue has never been my thing. When I started reading this book, I could not put it down. I was deeply moved by each character for they were each strong in their own right. I love Weiner's style of writing and ability to keep me laughing. I actually felt for each of these women. Very well written.

This Blue Ray disk is stunning to watch. If you haven't seen this Academy award winner (best picture 2002) it is a must. It answers the question "can they make em like they used to?" the answer to that is a resounding yes.If you are not ready for the close quick editing used at the start of the picture you might be left somewhat confused- but stay with it - a second viewing will reveal its importance in getting the audience to make the necessary connections between the characters and plot the course of the story.Well filmed - the sets and costumes are second to none and overall the movie provides a evening of good fun.

Must read for anyone struggling to achieve any goal

This was the first time I've read a Steven Pressfield book. Amazing... If you only read the first section talking about The Resistance it might change your life. If you read they entire book and take it to heart and work on yourself... You WILL change your life.I couldn't recommend the War of Art anymore... 5 Stars!!Ryan HanleyAuthor ofThe Social Tools Book

Does not stay Working!
|
I love the idea of this product but I cannot get it to keep working. I installed it in a 2007 H3 Hummer. Installation was straight forward and initially it worked like a champ but then all of a sudden it will just quit. I even sent my first unit back and got a replacement. The longest it has worked without stopping has been 4 days. And when I say 'stop working' what happens is all of a sudden the radio no longer recognizes it. Normally my radio will show XM1, then iPod, then the track info. When it quits working, all of a sudden you do not get XM1 as an option. the Band button just cycles through the other choices. The iPod still shows that it is connected and continues to charge but that is it. I have to take the radio out and disconnect everything and reconnect it to get it working again. It's driving me crazy. I really want this thing to work.

Rock and Lyrics
|
You know how bored I am with mediocre music makers with crappy poet-whore lyrics?very.Trail of Dead is not that. Trail of Dead write great epic rock tunes. Prog mixed with metal, a little emo and some humor, and good goddamn lyrics. Songs are catchy - and better yet get catchier. My barometer of a good album is if it grows on me. This is a grower. Buy it. Bum out your girlfriend by going "indie." It's a great album and a great live band, who at least sound like they're playing music cuz they need to. Not cuz they're hoping to make a buck. (And there ain't nothing wring with trying to make a buck. Just don't make art to make money. Make art cuz you have something to say. The money will come if yr any good.)

Works great, once you figure out the quirks

Important: INSTALL THE PRINTER LOCALLY FIRST. Update the firmware after installtion from linksys's site after setup.IMPORTANT: Plug the network cable into the server and into your network for setup. Never setup the printer wirelessly, the web server crashes on it when working wirelessly.Once you have your printer installed locally, and plug the server into the network via cable, follow the setup directions as indicated. The setup re-maps the locally installed printer port to the linksys network port. All print servers do the exact same thing. I have two different types.For advanced wireless setup, login into the web access page for the device, or use the Bi-Admin tool. That will allow you to edit the advanced wireless settings such as all WPA/Wep Keys etc. Once you wireless setup is done, unplug it and it should work right away. Do not attempt to access the web page wirelessly, it will crash itself.

The return of rock...finally.
|
After suffering through years of mediocre to good rock albums, RHCP return with a full blown masterpiece. The songs are layered, the musicianship is exceptional, and nearly every track is a gem. This is their best album since "Blood Sugar Sex Magic". Between Flea's inspired bass riffing, John Frisciante's spirit lifting guitar solos, Chad Smith's great percussion work, and Anthony Kiedis's shifting and impressive vocal work, Stadium Arcadium makes it evident that this is a veteran band at the peak of their talents. Yes, it's more laid back then previous albums but get past that and you'll realize it's still on of the best albums to come out in years.

pure garbage

If you have ever had a surround receiver you will find this one disappointing. The surface temp of the receiver runs in excess of 120 degress. Weak sound to back speakers. Insane setup features. The owners manual gave me a headache. The decoder does a poor job of seperation!

Does not Support Headsets
|
Contrary to the manufacturer's assertion above, this device does NOT support a wireless headset. I bought it for that specific purpose. When you install, it simply tells you this function is not supported.I am sure there are all sort of good technological reasons why this is the case, but a bit of explicitness on the part of the manufacturer would have been helpful, not to mention honest.
