I honestly think that when people write reviews, they should write it while taking its price (and the features that were promised to them before they originally purchased the item) into account. T-Mobile offers an extremely cheap basic phone that you can use well for simply calling and text messaging. I only have a cell phone for emergencies and to use while traveling. I never text message and I have no use for extra features like a built-in camera or mp3 player when I already have those items separately. I like the fact that it's a bar phone. I previously had a clamshell/fold-up phone with a less than exceptional design. This prepaid cell phone kit also comes with an AC adapter/charger and a headphone set (not wireless). Their customer service and technical support is fairly good and their pricing is among the best in the prepaid cell phone industry.
What's great about it: very affordable, great basic phone
What's not so great: don't buy if you're looking for premium features like a built-in camera, mp3 player, or Bluetooth capability

This RCA digital indoor TV antenna captures signals in a 40-mile range and installs easily.

I recently cancelled my cable television subscription that I've had for years not only because of rising costs but also because I just didn't watch television as much anymore. Nevertheless, I still wanted basic channels for watching events like the local news and some shows.
I did purchase several tv antennas including the more expensive non-rabbit ear tv antennas, which unfortunately did not work very well in my apartment. Of all the antennas I tried, I have to say that this model and model #ANT111 (the other rabbit-ear RCA antenna without the dial or movable ring) had the best reception. I also purchased a new HDTV and the HD signals on the channels come in very clearly. NBC is the only channel I am having some trouble with and seeing a lot of distortion. The antenna should be next to a window for best reception quality.
What's great about it: cheap price, easy set-up, fairly good reception
Logitech M310 Wireless Mouse is an easy-to-use, full-size mouse that feels just right. Feel comfortable for hours on end - in your right or left hand - thanks to its contoured, ambidextrous design with soft rubber side grips. M310 comes with a plug-and-forget nano USB receiver that is small enough to stay in your USB port so you won't lose it no matter where you take your laptop. Navigating on your PC or Macbook is simple, with smooth, responsive tracking and Logitech Advanced 2.4 GHz wireless connectivity. For hassle-free use and extreme reliability and durability, choose M310 wireless mouse.
It works fine. Ok, mice have been around long enough that you expect that. Nothing special, it does work. However, I don't recommend this mouse for notebook users for two reasons. 1.) The MS notebook mouse has a 4th button that is designed to activate a zoom function. I like and use that. Logitech doesn't have that. 2.) There is no storage slot on the Logitech for the small USB antenna. The instructions say to just leave it in the computer, but if I do it hangs on the the material of the notebook bag when the computer is slid into the bag. The MS has a spring loaded storage slot in the bottom if it's mobile mouse.
I use the Logitech on a desktop now, and bought a MS Mobile Mouse 4000. While the Logitech is fine, the MS is a better value.

With regards to dpkilleen's #2 point, there is a storage slot within the Logitech mouse for the nano receiver. It is located within the battery compartment, right next to the one AA battery slot. Obviously, the battery compartment cover slides right over the both the nano receiver slot and the battery, so it won't fall out during transport. I'm very surprised this poster did not realize that. Very odd.
