1 | Power supply | Power source works perfectly with my Digitech RP200 effects pedal. I am sure my neighbors hate it though:) Good price. | positive |
1 | Foot Pedal Power Supply | This is just what I needed for my Digitech foot pedal. Great going. Hooked it right up, worked the first time. Still working. | positive |
1 | as expected | As expected and in time, not much more to say about it, it's just a transformer, good quality and no noise | positive |
1 | SOOO NICE!!! | I'm telling you what..I purchased a Digitech RP100 used from a Guitar Center and it didn't come with a power source. Well, it was no big deal to me, I figured I could find something at home or just use batteries until I bought a power source. I finally realized I didn't have a power source at home so I had to buy this thing and I'm telling you what, it's sooo much nicer than having to put 6 AA batteries in every week :P | positive |
1 | tom ( Tomkat ) wallace | after going through alot of power supply's I figured Id have to buy one another site had it for $10.00 more and I found Amazon and order it for half the price so it work's great now and I got my pedal back up and working..... | positive |
1 | Does was its supposed to do! | I didn't give it a 5 because its a power supply and I've only had it for 2 months so far. | positive |
0 | stopped working after the 3rd use... | This was a completely, unequivocally, disgustingly, moronically, frustratingly worthless waste of $. I would have been better off throwing the money in the ocean. | negative |
0 | Smoke on the... | I plugged this thing into my WH-1 whammy pedal and my pedal started smoking. I hope this thing didn't fry my $500 pedal! | negative |
0 | 3rd time | This is the third time i buy this same adapter and it always stops working within 3 months! Always have to go back and order a new one. The first one came with the pedal and the second one I bought here. I bought another one from guitar center and in 6 months dead... Yey I just love buying the same thing over and over | negative |
0 | Out of stock | After not receiving this for a couple weeks, I got an email saying they had refunded me. I'm assuming this was not in stock. | negative |
1 | Digitech Power supply for Rp205 | It only took 5 days for delivery.It works perfectly for my RP 250, just like new:) | positive |
1 | Digitech AC Adapter | The good: This product works well, though something that's easier to open and fix (in a pinch, such as during a gig) might be nice. Alternatively (and preferably), Digitech could add a battery compartment / battery to the RP300. That'd be very useful.The not so good (but not bad): I find the cable length a little short for some live set-ups, requiring more extension cables and power strips that need to be lugged around. 2 more feet would be great. The first one lasted about 2 years until the cable at the transformer box broke internally.Overall though, no serious complaints. | positive |
1 | Great Book! | I have had this book for 2 years and it is the best reference on the topic of Civil War bullets. It is paper back, so you can take it with you to the shows and shops to check the dealer identification. You can't miss with this price. | positive |
1 | An extravagantly illustrated modern fable | Bill Harley's Bear's All-Night Party is a children's book about the optimistic Bear who wants to throw a big celebration, despite the pessimism of the many other animals, who claim that "no one will come." It doesn't take long for Bear's dance, music, and song to catch on in this extravagantly illustrated modern fable about the importance of enjoying the moment. A lovely, lively picturebook superbly enhanced with Mellisa Ferreira's artwork. | positive |
1 | family sing along | while I wish the music for the song were included, I made up a tune to sign and soon found my kids joining in. This is one library book we're going to buy. | positive |
1 | a great read | This book is a must have if you like off-the-beaten-path reads. It is well written, and keeps you turning each page. Joseph Citro is one of my favorite authors, he doesn't push it down your throat, you are left to decide what you believe, but they are all great stories. Definitely in my library for keeps. | positive |
1 | Awesome book | This book is the best. It not only contains interesting information about true ghosts and hauntings, and other uncanny events, it is well written, humorous, and will keep your attention from the first page to the last. It is great even for those who live outside of New England, but for those who do, it contains in some cases, where to FIND the scenes of these events. Incredible book! You will not be disappointed! | positive |
1 | Kinda Slow Start | I'm still reading this. It's not a page turner and I'm having to force myself to read it. Hopefully it picks up soon. I will update review once I finish. | positive |
1 | Great Read | Purchased this book for my 21 year old daughter for Christmas and she read it in two sittings. She loved the book! | positive |
1 | The last noel | I did not finish this as I dropped my Kindle in the bathtub. However, the characters were well written and the friendship leaps out from their first meeting going out sled riding. Sorry I could not finish the book | positive |
1 | Such a Good Read | I read this book because it was Christmas and wanted something about the holidays. This is about the twelve days of Christmas throughout life of a white girl and a African American family boy who makes friends with Noni. His family lives in the helps house. They are born one day apart. Loved this book. | positive |
1 | Wonderful book | This book was on the free list one day and I downloaded it. Took me a while to get around to it but I truly enjoyed it. Well written and interesting. I didn't know if it was going to bother me that it covers such a vast time period in the characters' lives, but it really works. I was sad when it ended, not just because the ending was a bit sad but because the book was over. | positive |
1 | My absolute favorite... | This is one of my all time favorite books! I read it several years ago, but have refused to donate it to my local library because I plan to read it again. I'm a big sucker for Christmas novels and again this one is my favorite. I got wrapped up in the lives of these two characters and found that I couldn't put the book down. It is a true love story at its best. | positive |
0 | Not A Christmas Story | This book was very disappointing and depressing. I believed this was going to be an uplifting Christmas tale and was very disappointed. A story in the lives of a disfunctional family, Noni an unbelieving "angel" type character and a young black boy who spends 75% of the book being angry, sullen and unlikeable. Covering years of this strange relationship I have to admit the character I truly liked was Amma, one of the servants to the family. Even if it wasn't to be considered a Christmas story, I wouldn't recommend it. | negative |
0 | Not a good holiday read! | When I read this book, to be honest, I couldn't put it down. The friendship of Noni and Kaye is so heartwarming and wonderful from the time they were seven and through their years.I understand that this is the real world and along with happiness comes sadness, but the real world quite honestly is sad enough at times and maybe it could have ended on a happier note. This book left an ache in my heart....I probably should have paid more attention to the title.... | negative |
0 | Avoid This One | I purchased this as an introduction to the Silk Road for my AP World History class and now have doubts that I will be able to use it at all. Rather than an academic investigation into the Silk Road and its history, this is much more an amateur travelogue. It's the sort of thing you used to watch in slide format in a church basement, after the return of the Johnson family from their vacation to Norway. This is definitely not worth the price. | negative |
0 | Terrible book | Poorly written, run on sentences and endless babbling. I could not get past his constant knocking of end over end knife throwing. He spent too much time on the short comings of end over end throwing and not enough time on the technique of his style. I guess he wanted to fill his book with pages so he ran on and on about irrelevant things. What was valuable in the book could have been written on 5 pages max. | negative |
1 | Works wonderfully!!! | I've been using this keyboard for a little over a month now, and I absolutely love it!! I am studying to be a medical transcriptionist, and that requires LOTS and LOTS of typing, and researching, and this just makes it a lot easier on my wrists. It did take a couple of days to adjust to, but now, going back to work is hard because that keyboard doesn't feel right! :-) This is a must-have for anyone who is on the computer typing a lot!! | positive |
0 | Not what I expected | I'm not very happy with this purchase, The way it describes the emotions at times makes it seem confusing to a child, I was expecting a story book, Its actually just a small book with a sentence or two for each emotion, Would not purhcase from this author again | negative |
1 | A Must-Have for Young Children | We received both "The Way I Feel" and "The Way I Act" as gifts for my 4 year-old grandson Tyler and what awesome books they are! They are unique in that they deal with subject matter so important to young children. They are very different from anything else I have seen on the market. The illustrations are meaningful and fun. The language is on-target and appropriate for young chldren. And in the back there is "A note to parents" which allows these books to become educational tools. For those who love to give books and read to their children, these are creative jewels to add to any child's library. | positive |
1 | Children's Book: The way I feel | My 4-year old grandson and I have loved this book. It is so great to have a book that describes feelings in very simple terms, for little ones to understand -- since it is crucial that children learn, and feel welcome, to label their feelings and express them (in appropriate ways). I recommend this book highly, especially for those whose children are going through difficult times in their lives (e.g. divorce, death in the family, etc.) Make sure to read the author's suggestions in the back of the book, as well. | positive |
1 | Preschool Teacher | I teach at a Preschool and this is my favorite book to read to my children. It has become one of their favorites as well. At least one child in my class requests to read this book every single day! I always remind them when they are in a conflict with one of their peers to talk about the way they feel and to tell the person how they feel. We also talk about positive ways to deal with negative feelings. I reinforce the idea that it is okay to feel angry as long as we can find something positive to do with our anger! Thank you Janan for this wonderful book!!! | positive |
1 | Great Book | As a teacher I frequently use this book when teaching students about their emotions and the emotions of others. The kids enjoy the book and asked to have it read over and over. | positive |
0 | Board book misses half the feelings | The regular hardcover version of this book is WONDERFUL. My five year old and I have been reading it together for two years, and now he loves to read it on his own.THIS IS NOT THE FULL VERSION!!We misplaced our well-worn Scholastic version, so I bought this board book. Today it arrived, and off the top of my head I can see that it's missing the sections on Thankful, Jealous, Bored, and Disappointed and Frustrated.I can understand having an abridged board book version for younger kids that doesn't include these subtler feelings, but that fact should be made clear. It's not mentioned in the book itself, so perhaps Amazon doesn't know about it.Needless to say, I'm disappointed and frustrated. I'll be returning this copy and ordering the full version. | negative |
1 | Great range of emotions! | I love this book! It has a wide variety of emotions for my sons to identify with, beyond happy, sad and mad. Frustrated? You bet! Toddlers can really identify with this but it is rarely in books. The pictures really showed the feelings! This book was perfect for helping kids know how they feel and put a name to it. It also showed silly and angry as equal but different emotions with no negative conotations to being bored or mad . | positive |
1 | good television | I have a total of 4 of this brand of educational videos. The dvd keeps my son's attention, and introduces learning concepts of shapes, colors, animals, numbers etc. They also provide a guilt free way to give parents a break to eat etc. | positive |
0 | I could have made this | Both the Briany Baby IQ DVD's are not good. My baby loves Right Brain and Left Brain, so I ordered both of the IQ DVD's, hoping those would be a hit too. She won't even sit through 5 minutes of them. Not what I expected, I expected better. I wouldn't suggest buying. Even my older step daughters think they are freaky and will give her nightmares with the little puppets they use. It is really odd. | negative |
0 | boring | Probably my fault but I didn't realize that this video was just music! Not good for my one year old! I wish I would have returned it! :( | negative |
1 | very entertaining | i'm sorry...it's been about 7 years since i read the book...i remember the general plot and the author's unique sense of humor, but little else, aside from the enjoyment. hopefully, this review, along with the above-reviewer's kudos, will entice someone to read this one. i keep very few books, especially fiction, but this one was worth hanging onto. let me put it this way...i don't care much for fiction, let alone british fiction, but this book was great! i recommended it to a non-reader, and he loved it! i had to get rid of a large part of my book collection when i moved cross-country, but i knew i'd read this one again someday. it's a quick read, very captivating...2 nights with the bed lamp on at most. | positive |
1 | Diary of a nobody | Edward Powell, a fat and facile fancier of French filth, is locked in a power struggle with his Aunt. She has strong opinions on how Edward should live his life, and unfortunately she also holds the purse strings; so Eddy decides she has to die.Written in the form of Edward's diary of his life in his Aunt's house in Llwll, Wales, he details for our delight his cack-handed schemes to finally rid himself of his troublesome relative. When things finally come to a head, Hull gives us a pleasant shock and a nice twist.Another lovely reissue of a neglected classic from the Langtail Press: good weight paper and a crisp font. A different printer than some of the earlier editions, so the size of the book has slightly increased, but hey-ho - still a pleasure to own. | positive |
1 | Not a bad magazine... | Not a bad magazine for the price. Thought it would contain a bit more information but there's not that many books/magazines out there for postcards that I've found so it'll do. It is giving me sources for information so that's a big help as I'm just getting back into postcard collecting and selling after about 10 years away. Would have liked to have seen something with a bit more pricing information. | positive |
0 | Not a good choice at all | This book is a bad bad investment. It has many drawbacks:1.- Every lesson begins with a dialog that has no connection at all with the explanations inside the lesson.2.- Dialogs are full of past tense, cases and many complicated forms that are not explained at all.3.- Grammar is faulty and very short, with just a few (2 to 3) examples.4.- Recordings are at very low speed, not good for learning. | negative |
0 | Disappointment | This book/CD set didn't help me at all. I listened to this several times and followed along with the book, but didn't learn anything. The only thing this program consists of is listening to conversations in Polish and reading along in the book. Nothing is explained in the book, it's just chunks of dialog. It wasn't hands on at all and was actually quite dry.I'm a hands on learner, though, so those who learn from being read to in a foreign language, have at it! | negative |
1 | It works but it's quite difficult | I started using this a while back to learn Polish. I used the book maybe two or three times for a couple weeks. The exercises didn't seem very effective at teaching me how to speak Polish. I had a native speaker helping me, but even she said the book became quite complicated, quite fast. I speak two languages other than English, (one fluent and one moderately well) so I'm no novice in language learning. There may be a better approach to learning. You could give this a try, but I'm warning you, you may find it difficult. | positive |
1 | Good grammar guide | This book is handy because it covers grammar principals at the basic conversational level and includes English translations. | positive |
1 | Love this DVD | I am an artist but new to the Quilting Arts TV DVD's. They give me inspiration each time I watch them. Thanks for the great service. | positive |
0 | Did not help | I figured this would help my psoriasis, because some studies say that oatmeal soothes the dry scaly patches of psoriasis and eczema. This soap did not do anything but dry my skin up even more. Poor job at exfoliating. | negative |
0 | Urban Crap | This makes no sense, looks like ideas that never got finished a bunch of footage edited into some sort of movie, Nobody gets credit in. Same filmmakers did do some good stuff like grossout or Blood diner. | negative |
0 | Doesn't even deserve a star | I thought this was a DVD with urban legends. I didn't think it was high budget, but I thought it was at least fairly new. Instead, it is seven super cheesy 1970s videos with really horrible comedic voice overs. The videos aren't even gory - they are obviously fake and stupid.When I first started the DVD, I thought maybe they had packaged the wrong thing in it. Nope. It is all stupid. Please, do not waste your money! | negative |
0 | It's not thrilling and I was not thrilled | After reading the first book in this series, I would have never expected a title like this from the same author. After reading this book, I can honestly say I never expected the content I found behind the title. A better title would have been Magick for Pacifists. There is nothing "Full contact" about this book? This book comes on with the macho man title, but then falls so far short that the best thing I can say about this book is that if you like books like Teen Witch, you are going to love this book. | negative |
0 | bull sh**t | I'm sorry but this book was a complete and total waste of money. If you want to ready pages and pages of mindless babble about what some guy, who as far as I can tell knows very little if anything about practical uses of magick, thinks a "true warrior" should b, then this is the book for you. But if you want real information about the craft, and ANY basic spell work, you'll be sorely disappointed. It The book is broken into sections, each one focusing on a different element, or so the author says. Then half way through the third one you realize you haven't actually learned ANYTHING yet. A quick peak at the other chapters proves that you never will either. | negative |
0 | Suction cups horrible | I got this because our two car garage is very tight and I was sick of getting dings on my door. It worked like a charm for about a week, and the cheap 2 cent suction cups stopped working. I suppose I could have gone to Home Depot and replace suction cups, but I didn't want to do that on a weekly basis. Overall good concept, but horrible execution. Move on and try something else. | negative |
0 | Not What I Expected | I was expecting a clear, thin sheet or strip of plastic to protect the sides of the car in parking lots, for example. I expected that it could be left on the car and that you could drive with it on, rather than having to take it off and put it on each time you park. This door guard is thick, and not wide enough (unless you know exactly where the door of the car parking next to you is going to impact your door). Two little suction cups, one on each end, do not hold the "door guard" on over night, even with a freshly washed car door. You cannot drive with them on, obviously. | negative |
0 | Convection Oven Cooking | Not enough basic recipes and not enough information. I returned this title, it just didn't appeal to me. If you want some more intricate recipes and some great basic convection oven info - try "The Best Convection Oven Cookbook". Personally, I'd like to see some one write a book with roasting times, chocolate chip cookie recipes and more of the basics. | negative |
0 | Not worth buying | I was more interested in technique and tips for cooking with my new convection oven and this was a poor resource The recipes are ordinary. Personally, I wouldn't have bought it had I known how mediocre this book was. | negative |
0 | A beginers guide | A beginers guide to convection ovens. Some very basic receipts for everyday meals, but does not have receipts one might use when entertaining guests. | negative |
0 | Not enough information | As there are very few convection oven cooking cook books available I sadly took a chance on this one. It did not provide me with the basic information I was looking for... how to adjust my baking for the convection oven coking mode that came with my new stove. This book appears to be more for the countertop convection oven. The recipies were mediocre at best and many were stew type cooked in a covered casserole. The recipies do list the ingredients in order of use which is nice. There are other books out there that are much better for learning how to cook in a convection oven - I'd suggest that you skip this one. | negative |
1 | Good Book. | I thought it was a good book. It had a lot of suspence and it kept my attention throughout the whole book. | positive |
1 | very helpful | This has helped me to understand how my convection oven works as well as how to adapt my recipes to cook by convection. | positive |
0 | BEWARE! This is NOT the television series. What a rip off! | For those hoping to find the wonderful TV series they grew up with, be very, VERY wary. This DVD set is NOT the entire TV series, as some may think it is.I found this information online that will hopefully set the record straight: "Series of fifty-two 23 minute episodes based on "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz", "The Marvelous Land of Oz", "Ozma of Oz", and "The Emerald City of Oz". Edited to four 93 minute video tapes, one each four the four books." - and that's all this DVD set is. By my calculations, the entire TV series should go for nearly 1200 minutes, and this set obviously does NOT go for that long.We should all try contacting Cinar in Canada or something to get the proper series onto DVD! | negative |
0 | Too heavily edited! | Like most reviewers I also agree that this series was the best cartoon adaption produced based on the L Frank Baum books. From the classic style of animation and brilliant theme "Searching for a Dream"However these 'mini films' have been created by condensing between 18 (first book) and 14 (latter 3 books) 22 minute episodes into 93 minute films. Despite the fact most of the action is missing, the editing of it is extremely poor meaning the films do not flow properly and while watching the story feels obviously rushed.To be honest these should never have been released. Instead it should have been 4 individual boxsets/2 disc sets containing all 52 episodes. However if it's worth picking up if you want to see this version now and cannot wait for a complete set which may never happen.I gave this release 2 stars. One because I love this cartoon and the other because it's a boxset of all 4 films together in a set. A boxset of all 52 episodes would have received 5 stars. | negative |
0 | Complete?? A big lie!!! | I totally agree with the (1 star) reviewers above.I am a big fan of this series when first aired and purchased the DVD collection straight. To my disappointment I noticed something wrong at the beginning and confirmed it by watching the recorded episodes.The Wizard of OZ animation collection is cut version with a lot of deleted scenes, this is not as what we saw on TV and all should stay away till they re-release the correct complete series. Don't waste your money on this as this is a clear rip-off!! | negative |
0 | NOT THE WHOLE SERIES | A great childhood television series has been abridged in this boxed set. You just can't find the whole thing ANY where! So this is the next best thing to having the show you use to love. One reviewer wrote "Close, but no cigar" and they were right! | negative |
1 | very good | Was a very good treatment and also was quite fast. The conditions of the product were great. | positive |
0 | business as usual | Once again it seems all the discarded, poorly worded and confusing questions continue to make it in this edition of "Core Review". It adds a level of frustration and imparts a sense of impending failure to anyone attempting to study for the CCRN. | negative |
1 | JUST SAY NO TO STRAUSS!!! | It's hard to imagine any album of waltzes without the waltz king Johann Strauss Jr. included.(or one of his relatives) This collection does just that. With the swagger and panache of the players we get a sampling from other composers seemingly just as comfortable in the field. By this disc's 50 or so minutes conclusion one will hardly miss him. This program is pleasantly drawn from waltz extracts of the stage and screen, making for a novel experience. Oh yes! Franz Lehar's "Merry Widow" Waltz, is included as the sole Viennese contribution. Though recorded with a hodge-podge of English players and orchestras, the sum of the parts adds up coherently. Each group brings their special touch to these melodic minatures. There is nothing heavy to speak of here. Just pick this one up if you desire a light rewarding listen. | positive |
1 | Excellent Guide to Small Claims Court | Watching this Step-by-Step DVD is the easy way to learn about Small Claims Court.After watching this DVD I was able to quickly get my problems resolved without even going to Small Claims Court. The person who had damaged my property saw that I knew how to go to Small Claims Court, and he paid me immediately.I highly recommend it. | positive |
0 | No Choice! | The life of this battery is pathetic. Typically runs for 30 minutes and not for 3-4 hours as claimed by Sony.But hey, is there a choice if you have already bought the vaio? | negative |
0 | Sony PCGA-BP71 battery | I'm shopping for the battery -- what a rude awakening! The price seems pretty high. I'm disappointed with the battery that came with my Vaio. I usually keep the computer plugged in, using the battery as a back up. Now the battery will not take any kind of charge, even though it indicates only 29 charge cycles. | negative |
0 | Bad, bad battery! but we have no choice | A very poor quality battery indeed. Battery life is very low indeed, about half an hour. And then from 1 day to the next, after about a year (for us) it just stops charging. And then you find this ridiculously high price to buy a new one. Shame on you, Sony! but it's not like we can do anything about it, since our Vaio only takes this one battery. Nevertheless, very disappointing. Be warned before you buy a VAIO that uses this battery. | negative |
0 | Sony VAIO Standard Lithium-Ion Battery (PCGA-BP71A) | The battery which I received was not a Sony Battery. It was manufactured by a third party and did not fit well in the battery slot. The battery was not able to be charged in my laptop. The battery was returned to the seller. | negative |
0 | Big disappointment | After receiving the battery I realized that it wasn't the original "sony" battery.Also I wasn't able to reach the seller company and talk or email them(Amazon.com customer service was also unable to help me with that). | negative |
0 | An inferior product | I didn't realize how universal the problem with the Sony laptop battery is. A friend of mine has a new 12" Sony, where the battery currently lasts many hours. I was shocked. I have never gotten more than 45 minutes out of my battery. Now it lasts under 10. I need a new one, but am more outraged at the price. Batteries for every other company are around $80-140, but Sony makes an inferior product for more than twice the average price. | negative |
0 | I'm not alone! | I thought I just got a bad battery with my Sony Vaio. It has been a great laptop with the exception of this stupid battery. Within 3 months it wouldn't hold a charge for longer than 10 minutes.Seeing these other reviews makes me realize I'm not alone. I feel your pain! I tried the Energizer brand but it was doa.I'm tempted to buy some cheap unknown brand. Can't be any worse than this Sony OEM. | negative |
0 | Sony better find a new battery maker.. it [] | Sony has a good name except when it comes to laptop batteries. My battery hold a charge for about 20 minutes and thats all. I have refreshed it and still nothing. The customer service that I have received is awful. Maybe I can trade this laptop in for a Dell. | negative |
0 | wrong battery | I have a fxa-32 sony laptop and the battery would not work in my laptop. I had two different batteries and neither one would charge. My laptop did not recognize that the battery was installed most of time either. My laptop works fine as my oem battery charges in both bays without a problem. The battery didn't fit well either. | negative |
0 | Awfully Expensive & bad | I purchased my Sony VAIO PCG-FX250 on September 2001, and let me tell you that I became dissapointed with it a long time ago. First thing that failed in my VAIO was the Diskette Drive before ending the first year, a few months later it was the CD-DVD/RW unit; I had to replace it, my power adaptor also had to be fixed about a year ago, and finally, my battery went belly up a couple of months ago. Now that I'm looking for a replacement I found that is awfully expensive which I don't justify, besides not being a reliable item, it doesn't even last more than a couple of hours when new.To make a long story short, the VAIO computers and accesories have goood looks, but for a device that costed me a little more than two grand at that time, I expected a much more reliable device. My next laptop won't be a SONY VAIO. | negative |
0 | Battery info | The problem most folk have with the Sony batteries, is that they leave them in their laptops and use the wall plug. During that whole time, the Sony laptop tries to recharge the already charged battery, causing it to slowly wear down. Folk say... I never use the battery, when in fact their battery is in use as long as it is in the laptop and plugged in. A friend alerted me to this after my battery went the first time. Suggestion: Remove the battery from your laptop and keep it in your case for whenever you are traveling. This is actually a stupid fix, because... if the power goes out while you are working on your computer, your battery is in your laptop bag! The fix is actually a new computer, that has more up-to-date software and hardware, that sense when the battery if full and stops charging. But for those of us who don't have the money for a new laptop, we keep on buying batteries. | negative |
0 | Awful battery!! | 2 sony vaios, 2 batteries..both of them died all of a sudden and I barely used them.For sure next laptop I'll buy won't be a sony. | negative |
0 | Battery Bummer | I guess I feel comforted reading all these terrible reviews. My Vaio battery went kaput (after a couple of years, admittedly), and I bought two third party brand batteries, seemingly reputable. The first one worked for about a year. The one I just got worked for about a week and now it won't even take a charge! Zero! This after spending about $350 just before that to fix the software in the thing when it stopped booting up... surprise! I could have bought a new Dell, dude, for about $100 more. Like I'm going to go out now and pour more money into this machine for another battery? And forget Sony Customer service. Worthless. | negative |
1 | Good but not Great ! | First the goodies...its light weight and the picture quality is excellent. The sound is good too! Due to its small size it is very easy to carry. The LCD is big ( 3.5" ) which is a big plus.The not so good features are: 1. The digital camera has a very low resolution. So the pictures taken from the camera are really bad. I took around 200 pictures and couldn't capture a single clear picture. I have stopped using it now. So I guess this feature is useless...for me atleast. 2. The info-lithium battery supplied with the unit doesn't last long. Especially when you are recording. I'll probably have to buy another one that lasts longer. 3. The zoom 10x/120x is just OK but I wish it had a more zoom power. | positive |
1 | Tech Support Poor | This Camera is difficult to learn to use and Tech Support from Sony is non-existent.The memory adaptor shipped with my unit was defective and I ended up purchasing the PCMCIA adaptor which I finally got working with the help of a local computer technician.The directions for installing the software are poor and the software is not "user friendly". There appars to be no way to modify your pictures using the Sony software, I am using an Adobe photo program to adapt my pictures to other applications.Wait for improved software and better tech support before you but this camera! | positive |
1 | I WOULD HAVE PREFERRED TRV-8 | I've been using TRV-10 for about 6 months now. I had taken it to most of the places I visited. No doubt, it has real good clarity both in Audio and Vedio. Its sleek and handy size is impressive. Photo quality is not at all good as noted by other reviewers. It is just OK to use for home purposes. Print (on 35mm film) sucks. The other thing that did not impress me is Memory stick. It has no use if you have an i-link feature in your computer. I recently got a SONY VAIO Laptop with I-link and after that I never used memory stick option. Now I realize memory stick is useless if you own or plan to own a computer with I-Link. This I did not know the time when I bought the camera. Sony DVGate Motion/Still software replaces the need of I-Link.In my opinion, if is just enough to have TRV-8 unless you want to spend extra 200-300$ on just memory stick..Regards Frank | positive |
1 | Night Of Death! a worthy French horror/gore movie to pick up | Just a quick review to note that NIGHT OF DEATH! was an enjoyable movie, definitely worth picking up for fans of Jean Rollin, Paul Bartel and Synapse Films. A well done, if barebones, release (I understand, though -- no supplements were really available for Synapse). It's in French with English subs and the transfer looks nice. Don did a superlative job as usual! | positive |
1 | Lost French horror | NIGHT OF DEATH came completely under the radar for me. In my opinion its highly underrated. Its gory, funny and has amazing atmosphere that echoes Jean Rollin. The dvd release from synpase looks beatiful considering the rarity of this film. If you like films like this, dont fret at a blind buy, get it! | positive |
0 | Very bad | I wouldn't recommend this. This is very bad. Does not offer any real solution and merely repeats what others say and conventional wisdom. | negative |
1 | Mono - High Life | This second HIGH LIFE single from Mono also goes the speed garage route, but with a darker and more sinister mix from the Natural Born Chillers. Only echoing fragments of the original vocal remains; it seems a more interesting interpretation than the more dancefloor-friendly 187 Lockdown mix on the first single. Two mixes of "Silicone" also appear, but these are obviously redundant for those who own the actual SILICONE single. | positive |
1 | As interesting for parents as it is for their young people. | Stephen Hahn did a remarkable job creating an adventure that rings true on many levels. The characters and settings are believable and the attention to detail remarkable. It was refreshing to learn more about what was happening on the homefront during the civil war, though the battle scenes were chillingly vivid. All in all it was a satisfying read. | positive |
1 | Superior Quality Product | This is my very first laptop purchase off the internet and I'm quite pleased with the result of my research on Amazon. The reviews and all the product information were accurate. The widescreen panel is simply amazing and very impressive. The sound quality is the best so far compared to many other laptops I've used. I use it for playing my favorite online music and watch a lot of internet TV. Overall, I highly recommend checking out this product. | positive |
1 | Great Value For The Price | We were worried about this purchase because of the one bad review, but ours arrived heavily packed with no flaws and functions beautifully. The thing is huge and weighs a ton but it works magic for our HD equipment at a fraction of the price of competitors. They neglected to send mounting bolts but that was an easy fix with a quick run to the hardware store. We're happily impressed. | positive |
0 | Amazon sent a used screen! | I can guarantee that I received the one D. Campbel returned. The inner box was not strapped and the unit was definately used. The top rail had paint scraped where you slide the bracket and just like you it was the grey one and not the white though the outside of the box stated it was white. The motor was very loud and the bottom right of the screen was bunched and torn a little. We'll see what I get with the replacement. Such a hassle to have to return. I did order the 84" from Amazon and it was just fine and glad I had it to compare to this horrible one. I still can't believe they tried to pawn a returned screen as new. | negative |
0 | Wrong screen twice, both of them where broken | I have had two of these shipped to my house and both have arrived broken and they were the wrong screen. I ordered the cine white and both boxes contained cine grey screens. The first one was ripped about 2 inches on the left side. The second one dropped about 6 inches and then froze in place and acted like it was going to blow up. Needless to say I am returning that one as well. I wouldn't recommend ordering this from Amazon, clearly they got a bad batch. I am not sure if I even want to try my luck with someone else. I have contacted Elite Screens directly to see what they can do if anything. | negative |
1 | Medicine Ball | Excellent ball to own. I use it for stretching my body out, when sitting on a yoga ball. I use it for some leg exercises and arm exercises. The ball is durable, and has shown no wear down in the short time I have owned it.Shipping to my work was not all that impressive, but I was on a short vacation at the time, so not overly concerned about that. I was just happy to get in the ball in so I could continue doing certain exercises at home. | positive |
0 | No quality control. | Leo the Lion is a classic anime series; basically it's the second season of Kimba The White Lion. Confusingly, the series has been made available on DVD by more than one company. These DVDs by the Palm Beach company could not possibly have been checked for quality before being released. The sound on each and every episode is unbelievably, horribly distorted. Yes, you can make out the words, but you'll think someone kicked in the speaker in your TV set.In addition, each episode on these particular DVDs is shortened by having as much as 5 minutes cut out of it--there is no reason for this in a DVD release.I don't know why they couldn't have produced a decent product. The English version of this series was dubbed uncut; why are these shortened versions on these DVDs? This classic series certainly deserves better treatment. If you look around the 'net a little, you can find better DVDs of this series. | negative |
0 | Professional Development with Web APIs : Google, eBay, Amazon.com, MapPoint, FedEx | I believe this book was not written with the developer in mind. Its was scimpy in detail and I had to return it. It is .net based and may be not suitable for java developer. | negative |
0 | Out of Date | I bought this book for the Amazon.com web services section. While the information she provided was interesting, it was out of date. She talks about the Amazon.com Product ID and Amazon now uses an Access Id and Secret Access Id.Didn't look at the other Google, eBay, PayPal, etc. services | negative |

0 | pretty skimpy | I was very disappointed when I received this book; I was expecting something more substantial. Although the text is well researched, it is more a compendium of facts about women and the death penalty, rather than a case study of individual women who have been executed. There are only a few captioned photos in the middle of the book, and you're left trying to guess who the women pictured on the jacket were. Instead of buying this I would strongly suggest Texas Death Row, which has photos and facts about every executed man, and is much less. | negative |
1 | Stunningly Shabby Chic! | The mom-to-be just loved this buggy. I used it as a cake topper on a two tiered cake with cupcakes surrounding, it was beautiful.It is a bit smaller than I imagined but I love it!Thank you | positive |
0 | Tedious, very disappointing. | I have tremendous respect for Martin Duberman as a writer and as a gay rights activist. CURES is a seminal account of one gay man's attempt during the 50s and 60s to use therapy to "cure" himself of his homosexuality. It's a telling account of the times, offering younger readers like myself the opportunity to see just how intolerant and oppressive our society was of homosexuality. It's insightful memoir at its best. Instead, this book is self-involved and tedious, a whiney account of various squabbles between academics during the 70s on how best to achieve gay liberation and acceptance. It fails to offer insightful commentary on larger issues, and is therefore meaningless for most readers. Martin Duberman has done gay history and all of us a great service by writing such brilliant works as CURES and STONEWALL. I only wish he would return to chronicling the larger history of gay people so eloquently. | negative |
