Product review: There were two things that I really hated about this movie: the music and the forest. I'm not sure where they shot this movie, but the trees looked like they were most likely eucalyptus trees. You'd think they could have at least found a nice dark forest somewhere that would be reminiscent of the dark woods you'd expect in this sort of tale. The poor selection of filming locations might be over-looked, but the incredibly banal music was just unforgivable! I talked to a couple of young kids after they'd watched this movie and they very adamantly insisted that it was a terrible movie. In general I'd say that this movie was on the verge of being amateurish (despite the presense of well-known actors) except that someone did a nice job building the gingerbread house. If it weren't for that element of the movie, I'd rate it at zero stars instead of one star! (NOTE: The child actors did a fine job performing their roles and it is not at all their fault that the movie is so lame!)

Product review: The case is too weak for shipping. The shipping industry is too brutal for this product. The packaging around the air cleaner isn't up to the task. I sent two of these back due to damage and use a face filter instead. It would have been nice to run an air cleaner in the shop, but it won't be a JDS

Review title: Here We Go Product review: As has been the case for the past few months it seems that Amazon keeps adding items I have already reviewed to my review list. Since this list is a way to keep track of the things I buy here I try to keep it up-to-date, but I digress on that for now...Season six of the Simpsons is easily one of the best of the show and may just be my favorite season. I'm not going to go through every episode but I will say that every single one of them are great and rewatchable to the point you could quote them in their entirety, as I have. The only issue I have with the 'collectible Homer head' version, if you can call it an issue, is that it doesn't really stack well with the other season, but that's about it. If it's your thing to collect all these special 'heads' great, but I purchased the regular version and gave this one to a friend.

Review title: Good Beginners' Manual Product review: A good book for all those who would like to develop for the Palm platform but don't know where to begin. There is alot of material out there (especially on Palm's site) and it can be very intimidating. This book puts everything into focus for the first time developers of Palm. This book expects a pretty good understanding of C. All in all, very easy to read and very clear code examples. It is also great in that it does not assume you are using one IDE or another, but sticks to the most relevant aspects of tackling this field, the PalmOS and its Programmers' APIs.--Ray
