Vacuum is easy to use and is very easy to push – almost self propelled. Quieter than other vacuums I’ve used. Wider path, but slimmer head- gets under furniture easier.

I was torn in between going for a larger screen size in the 16GB iPad, or the larger storage capacity in the 64GB iPod Touch. Well, just a few days ago, I made up my mind that hard drive space was more important than screen size, and I was wanting it to be more portable. I mean, they both have similar functionality, last I checked, so that nailed that one, and there’s just about the same amount of apps available for both of them. Sure enough, this device was better for me. The only gripe is that Apple won’t enable Flash Player for Safari, but that’s not enough for me to take a star away. Still looking for a speaker dock for this unit, hoping that some are 3rd generation compatible for both play and charge functions. I am open to those recommendations. Outside of that, I definitely think that this is Apple’s best product available right now, and it’s a handheld device that I’ll actually use on a daily basis.

I’m sure I’ll be duplicating some of the reviews, but I had to add my love of these books. I, like so many, thought these were books for teenagers and ignored the series completely for the longest time. My friend said she started to read them and encouraged me to try the first one just to see. We both have kids in elementary school so we aren’t the “target audience”, although I truly believe these books aren’t YA. (Stephenie even said herself that the first one was never written that way, it is just the genre they got put into.)

So, I began reading, and began falling in love with this story. There are a few words that get repeated too often and there are even typos here and there, but it didn’t matter. You get to step into another world and learn all about these wonderful characters with Stephenie’s fantastic descriptions. And you literally feel the passion going on between them!

I’ve seen the first movie, but will not see any more. There is just no comparison since there is soooo much more in the books. I have read all four books (and the Midnight Sun draft online) and would say Twilight is my favorite of the published ones in this series. But I love each one since it continues the story. It will be hard to find something better, but I hope to find other books as good.

there is obvious confusion abounding in the world today. If people would simply read their Bible, asking God for His illumination on their reading, they would know who He is. this book is not the voice of God, but of a confused individual. don’t buy it.
The Heart of Racial

I quite enjoyed this one. Normally I am not a big fan of constant point-of-view switches, but these are done smoothly and sensibly; not disjointing at all. The characters are great fun to follow along, and the story had me wanting to jump right back in to see what happened next.

I first bought the Maxsa version of this device (virtually identical to the Sierra, clearly the same manufacturer). All was well at first, both lights nice and bright. But after only two weeks, one of the laser lights went dim. It still comes on, but not nearly bright enough to be of use. Since we liked the system during the short time it worked, we decided to roll the dice again, hoping for a better outcome with the Sierra version. Guess what, the EXACT same thing happened (one light on, but too dim to be of use), but this time time it happened DURING THE INITIAL AIMING PROCESS! So, I now have two of these things installed in my garage, each of them with only half of it working.

This version has an additional problem, BTW– it doesn’t come on until too late, and doesn’t stay on long enough. Don’t waste your money.

It is awesome. I don’t know how I ever lived without it! Thank you!!

I had been using the window mount and found it to be very distracting. The dash mount can be placed in a spot that is perfect for the driver or passenger to view. It stays in place and does not move when stopping suddenly. I would have to say that it is far superior to the window mount and am sorry that I waited as long as I did to purchase it.

Anyone into gaming on tv will like the Wii. I do recommend getting a HD cable if your tv is HD capable. Makes the picture a whole lot better.
