    Very Nice
    Over all this phone is very nice. I’ve had it for a while and I’ve certinly put it to the test. It’s been dropped, thrown, and even submerged in water for about 2 seconds and it still works fine. One thing that has occured because of the daily ware is a really annoying creaking noise when I type. It’s usually just w/ the numbers but it sometimes w/ the qwerty keyboard. I highly recomend it as a first or second phone for ages 12-25. The texting is awsome and there’s no fuss of adding names and such to the T9w dictionary. If you don’t usually text this phone is just like any other. But in the end I give it a 5 star rating.

    Generally Awesome
    I have only had this phone for about a week. So bear that in mind as you read. When I first got the phone, the pic mail was working fine. Then it wasn’t for a day, so I called customer service and they fixed it within 1/2 hr. Then it stopped working again for a few hours yesterday due to “network difficulties”. I was also trying to make calls yesterday and the person on the other end could only hear an echo. Now I am a little concerned over the quality of this phone. Although I do love the features on it. Vision is awesome, I can IM on Yahoo, get my email quickly. The camera takes very good quality pics if there is enough light. And the keyboard makes it simple to text. My battery lasts me the whole day and I am a constant texter and caller. As stated before, I am a little concerned over quality, so I would recommend buying the insurance.

    Great Phone
    This is really a great phone. I have chubby fingers but the keyboard was easy to use. There is room for improvement, of course. At the moment there are not many applications you can use with this phone. For instance, games like Jewel Quest, Solitaire, etc. The only pack you can get is the Vision Pack. The browser could be better. Overall, I love the phone!!

    Good Phone, but there’s room for improvement, 3.5 stars
    Pros:

    -Uses Sprint Vision (Not Power vision - EV-DO) so I didn’t need to change my plan. -but this may be a con for others-

    -Qwerty key pad

    -1.3 Mp camera

    - Applications: Facebook, Aim, Instant messenger, Email, internet.

    -Micro Sd slot so you can store more music and pictures

    -Bluetooth

    -size and weight is great and the raised buttons make it easier to dial.

    -music player sounds pretty good

    Cons:

    *Some of my con’s are quiet specific to things that I usually want/need in a phone, and didn’t realized until after I had received the phone. Its still a good phone, but I would be happier if it had some improvements.

    -Camera doesn’t have a flash.

    -Glitches in photo program. If you select pictures to save to your phone (either via online albums or pictures sent) it may save the photos you didn’t want, or will just save the first photo 3 times, instead of the 3 different photos you selected.

    -QWERTY key pad should have a button for the period, you need to “shift” then hit the period.

    -The typing software can use some improvement, such as predicting words and such. The feature is there but lacks accuracy.

    -Screen needs better resolution & colors. currently 176×220 pixel resolution.

    -*Can’t use own music (on SD card) as ringtones,

    -*Difficult/can’t use own pictures (from SD card) as the background/screen-saver.. I still can’t figure it out.

    -*Short cut navigation key for some reason the category “My content” doesn’t let you make a shortcut for the sections within it. I want a shortcut key to Google maps, which is within ‘my content’, but it doesn’t allow it, the best it will do is let you shortcut to ‘my content’ and then you have to scroll from there which is kinda annoying..

    -*The idle/key lock screen is always the black screen with the time that you can’t change.

    -*There isn’t a flashing light to tell you of a missed alert, until you click on a button and see the black/keylock screen. Else the phone just looks like its sleeping, so you have to consistently click on the buttons to see if you’ve missed any alerts.

    Pictures you take with the phone look pretty well (granted you have the prefect lighting) on the computer, but everything on its low resolution screen makes photos seemed washed out and blurry.

    Iron Man Repulsor Power Figure

    Customer Reviews:
    Another addition to the Why Didn’t They Have This When I Was A Kid? file!
    My 4 yr. old son loves this toy! More than two-and-a-half months after buying it for him, he still plays with it all of the time, takes it with him in the car whenever we let him, and has vanquished many an Evil Doer with a well-placed “Repulsor Blast!”

    I can’t imagine Tony Stark’s armor being much tougher than this action figure. It gets “flown” into all types of surfaces at various rates of impact, and even the finely detailed fingers are still intact. The makers went the “extra mile” by including not just an “on” and “off” setting, but one in-between that silences the “whooshing” jet boot noise (which continues until Iron Man “lands” again…oh joy, haha), but still allows the sound effects/speech that occur when pressing the chest or arm buttons! (And speaking of those boot sound effects, we have had NONE of the problems in some other reviews of the boot switch not working that triggers the sound on and off for taking off or landing.)

    I have only two minor complaints. First, there are some limits to the articulation of the arms, legs, and head. No

    Iron man action figure
    Action figure takes a beating from my 4 yeard old. There are barely any scratches and all the features work great. Excellent item.

    Finally!
    It seems like I’ve been waiting just about forever for someone to release a 12″ scale Iron Man figure. My wait came to an end with the arrival of the Repulsor Power Iron Man figure from Hasbro’s Iron Man movie toy line.

    This isn’t a perfect figure, but it’s still pretty impressive. It’s very close in appearance - if not scale - to the movie Iron Man, and the attention to detail is quite good. The head seems way small, especially if there’s supposed to be a person in there. I would love to have seen a version of this figure with a removable helmet.

    On the plus side, the electronic features are extremely cool. Beyond a few stock phrases (”I am Iron Man”, “Repulsor Blast”, “Switching to Auxiliary Power”), the figure also has a light up torso and left hand repulsor, and features motion activated sound effects for flight and landing (there’s a trigger on the right boot) as well as repulsor sounds when the left arm is moved.

    On the minus side, the figure is not as articulated as I had hoped. The head moves, as do the arms (but only forward), elbows, legs, and knees. The wrists do not move, which is understandable at least on the right hand with its missile launcher. The ankles do not move either, which is a bit disappointing. Of course, my figure will spend 99.9% of its time displayed on a bookshelf, so articulation is a relatively minor concern for me.

    Small gripes aside, this is about as good an Iron Man figure as I had hoped for, and is a welcome addition to my 12″ figure collection. It also withstood my 2-year-old’s “intensive product testing”, so I’ll probably end up buying another for his upcoming birthday.

    Great Replica, Boys Loved It
    This is a great toy, very nice replica. Paint chipped fairly early though. Overall, it was a great toy recommend it for kids who liked the movie.

    Nice!
    First of all a great value for this Iron Man. I just loved the sounds every time you move it. I just wish it could have a little more points of articulation. You can really have fun playing with this Iron Man. Nice!

    Customer Reviews:
    So much easier than traditional bread pans….
    The handle/rim on these pans makes them soooo much easier to remove from the hot oven than traditional larger loaf pans. Quality is quite good, more than adequate for breads, etc., and will likely last with proper care. I ordered a second set to give my mother, as I feel they are much easier and safer than the style without the handle/rim at the ends.

    Perfect
    These are great pans! I have 2, and they were wonderful for banana bread and also a sweet potato loaf… there was no sticking, perfect browning, and they were so easy to clean. They are very sturdy and the extra large handles are a great bonus!

    What a nice idea!
    There are several loaf pans on the market that combine decent browning properties with a relatively non-stick finish and this is one of them. What makes this pan so much better is that the edges are extended on the ends to provide sturdy, rigid handles. This makes it easy and safe to remove hot pans from the oven.

    I own two and the non-stick is still intact after about a hundred loaves.

    Unique, but incredibly annoying
    I admit, this game is a lot of fun… AT FIRST. The games style is uniquely fresh and i admire the attempt, however its time to get down to brass tacks. Frankly,the enemies are a mere annoyance in this game and pose no real threat at all. Its simply a matter of choosing the right form. And while u dont have to change to beat specific enemies, the game will never forgive you for it. A certain enemy has a shield, making it resistant to guns, and if u so much as think about shooting it the game will sound “Gun doesnt seem to work” “I dont think i should use gun” “thats not a good idea” I wouldnt mind if they only told you once, but no! Every 3 seconds they have to shout this. If u like playing games while listening to something other than the game its a rental for sure.

    Alter Echo: Strange, But Fun!!!!
    Well I recently purchased this game. Now, I saw and read alot of reviews about this game and I was never really interested in it. Well finally one day when I didnt know what game to buy I bought it and let me tell you I’m glad I did.

    Graphics: 10

    The Graphics in this game are really interesting. From the sword slashes to the characters the graphics are really cool looking. The backrounds in this game are very strange and cool looking, so are the monsters, and truly do fit the game.

    Story: 9

    Even though I didn’t understand it fully, the game did have an ok story. In the game you play as Nevin, a shaper. You are on a mission to stop a psychotic shaper named Pavo, whos trying to take over all of humanity with a substance he recently created called echo plast. Anyway as your flying in your ship you are attacked and fly out of your ship onto the planet of echoplast. When you wake up your wearing a strange suit made of echoplast and the echoplast begins to talk to you. Now its up to you to stop Pavo, with the help of the echoplast.

    Gameplay: 10

    This is indeed the games strong point. This game is a mixture of two diffrent types of games, hack and slash and third person shooter. The main part of the game play, of course, is destroying enemies, but the interesting part of this game is the ability to change Nevin into 3 diffrent forms: Stealth, Mele, and Shooting. Each form has its distinct advatages. The stealth form is wear you use a sword and can pull off really cool easy combos with it. The stealth form is really cool. Even though you look like a frog. Anyway in the stealth form you can do many diffrent things. You can change invisible to do stealth attacks and avoid some enemies. You also have a tounge you can use to smash enemies into the air. Your gun form is a slow moving robot looking form with a huge gun. This is a very useful form when attacking many enemies. The other cool thing about this is you can also buy upgrades and buy new moves and upgrades for your three forms and suit. One other cool thing about the gameplay is a little thing called time dialation. Its the ability to freeze time and brutally attack enemies. This is not like typical bullet time either. Once your time dialation meter is full you press R3. Your enemies are displayed by pictures of them. Theres a little blinking arrow at the bottom of the screen and with that you must use good timing to move it passed the ememies pictures. The longer you can move the arrow the more damage done to your enemies. Then after that a really cool cutseen will show and depending on witch form you chose, will show Nevin attacking the enemies. You only have to do one type of puzzel in this game too. Its called a sync node. Those work pretty much the same as time dialation. Overall the gameplay was really fun and interesting.

    Overall alter echo was a great game. It was one of the most interesting and original games I ever played. I recommend anyone who wants to play something diffrent to pick this one up.

    Cool!
    This Game is Amazing….Its A Little Dumb At The Begining But Once You Get Your Other Forms Its Sooo Cool! I Love The Stealth Form (Its Animal-like) So Buy it if u like games with lots of Futuristic Action!!!

    Amazing!!!
    This is my all time fav game. The plot is well thought out and the time dilation thing rocks!!! I’ts sooo cool to morgh into gun mode and stealth mode. 5 STARS!!! You should really buy this fantastic game, it rocks! Que up inmsane combos in time dilation…surprise your enimies by morghing into Gun mode… scuttle around like a spider in stealth mode… I’m telling you BUY THIS GAME!!!

    IT SUX
    this game sux horribally u shouldnt get it for couple of reasons. 1. its on ps2 which is horrible if u own one throw it out n get an xbox they r WAY better. 2. the game sux. 3. u shouldnt play it. I was dissopointed when i played it very much i hated it dont buty it its a waste of money!!!!

    nice cd/dvd wallet
    i am very happy with it! all my cd/dvd fit nicely in the sleeves with the paper of the songs. i bought 2 more. doesnt scratch cd/dvds

    DVD and CD Carrying Case
    I really like this product. Yesterday, I organized all of my DVD’s in this carrying case, and I still have plenty of room left to sort out my CD’s. The only drawback is that it is bulky and unwieldy, but it is still an excellent purchase. All of those plastic jewel cases, many with cracked lids, are in a garbage bag waiting for the trash pick up.

    great service
    this product is great- large capacity, heavy duty zipper, looks like a fat book and saves soooooooooo much space. Has a stury handle and tough fabric that resists animal claws and spills. love it!

    top notch cd wallet
    Top notch cd walled with solid zipper and carrying handle. Largest CD wallet I was able to find.

    Exactly as advertised
    Just as advertised, this holds a large number of the discs that otherwise tend to exacerbate my signature clutter. Protects them and makes them easy to find. Much better, for these purposes, than various more-expensive and less-compact cases and organizers I’ve tried, over the years. Fits on a shelf with 3-ring binders.
