Anagola 2000

Archive for October, 2010

I do have a few things that i dont like. I hate how it doesn’t leave books you haven’t read yet marked as new. Plus I hate that books go on sale but yet Kindle books still say the same … therefore more then paperbacks. I bought my kindle because I heard books were cheaper but really they aren’t.
Match Head Design Protective

I got this product (8GB Touch, called “3rd Gen” though it’s really “2nd Gen) November 2009, and it worked great for 1/2 year. Apple then “upgraded” the operating system from OS3 to OS4 (a software upgrade that happened through iTunes), and now it goes much slower and crashes much more often. Apple does not provide a way to go back to the old operating system, and does not respond to requests for help.

Have had this vac for about month and a half now. Very powerful, good suction,light, and a little quieter than our old eureeka. Doesn’t look fancy..actually looks kinda cheap. But it seems solid and performs.You can’t go wrong for $68. Consumer reports best buy as well.
Flat Packed Trolley Viva

I feel duped by these reviews. This book would be perfect for my 11 year old cousin, but is by no means a great book for all ages as these reviews would indicate. It is very slapstick and dorky. You could read the whole thing in a day and forget it even sooner. Also, Artemis Fowl is a punk.
Thinking of You Gourmet

This Twilight series makes me want to puke when I know that the de facto vampire series has already been written by Anne Rice. Are you Twilight fans aware of The Vampire Chronicles? Twilight is akin to Fabio novels for teenie boppers. If you are at all interested in reading the best vampire series that has and more than likely will ever be written, stop wasting your time w/this fluff and check out The Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice.

I love the game system, and have had no problems at all with it. I have one gripe with Nintendo though, and this is a warning to anyone new to the system (like me): the instructions are useless. I figured out more just by trial and error than by using the booklet that came with the system. Not a big deal, just a warning. Also, don’t for a minute believe amazon on the delivery time-they are full of it. I ordered it with basic shipping, I wasn’t in a hurry, HOWEVER, waiting 5 business days just to fulfill my order is ridiculous. I can guarantee that if I paid for the express shipping, I wouldn’t have received it by the time they guaranteed. How do I know this? Because once packed, it only took 3 days to ship, which has never happened before. A big deal? maybe not, but I wnated to warn anyone who was buying this as a gift.
Advanced Tool Design Model

In an era of crappy products with impossible to understand manuals and a paucity (or no) peripheral programs, the Garmin 305 stands out as a clear winner. I have used both Polar and Suunto high end HRMs and hands down the Garmin wins on all counts. I haven’t had it long enough to attest to durability but subjectively it appears and feels as though you could throw it off a cliff and it would continue to work well. The unit is solid and hasn’t given one seconds trouble. The software links and the programs themselves are reliable and actually helpful. The ease of connection to the even more desirable Train Peaks software is seamless. The HRM receiver strap is equally high quality and appears quite durable. What might be a negative? The only downside that I’ve encountered is the long load time on start-up. Other than that it has become one of my possessions that were I to lose it, a replacement would be made immediately. Might even spring for one day post.
Casio Baby G Jelly

For a total price of $2.79, you absolutely cannot complain. Shipping was super fast too, much faster than the 2 week quote. I bought this to connect my Xbox 360 to the TV so I could play Halo Reach, just finished playing for hours on 1080i, and there was no problems whatsoever, none of that flickering that one of those 1-Star feedbacks mentioned. Like I said, for less than 3 bucks you can’t do better.
Germ Guardian Plug In

This works much better than the suction cup mounts which always seem to fall. My only complaint is that with time the bottom becomes smooth, rather than “friction-y” causing the unit to slide around the dashboard, making it unusable. In fairness, this occurred after two years of sitting on my dashboard, often parked in the hot sun. I have not found a more durable/functional mounting solution for my garmin.
