Been searching for a inexpensive chest freezer, this one went on sale and the other reviews were pretty good. I order it and it arrived 2 days later. Mine came with a dent on the bottom right side. it wasn't too bad, looks like a lot of people have these damage too. So far soo good.

The PS4 is a graphical powerhouse, able to deliver massive game worlds with impressive clarity and detail. 8GB of RAM allows for serious multitasking potential, complementing the great apps and features that make up the PS4 experience. The PlayStation brand of consoles has an impressive history of delivering world-class exclusive games, and the trend is sure to continue with the PS4. The growing blockbuster catalog is backed by a library of free-to-play and indie games, giving you flexibility in how you pay and play. The PS4 also acts as a social hub, with several built-in features that take advantage of the social networks you're already using. The controller's Share button opens up a world of video sharing, with the option to stream your gameplay live or record it to edit and post later. PlayStation Vita owners will enjoy the connectivity that ties the two devices together, from Remote Play, which allows you to play your PS4 games on your Vita's screen over a local Wi-Fi network, to Cross-Buy, which allows you to purchase a game digitally only once and play it on both your PS4 and your Vita. All PS4 consoles will need a firmware update and must be connected to the Internet to complete the update. While your console will not always need to be connected to the Internet, a one-time connection is required for the update. Online multiplayer requires a paid PlayStation Plus membership. Some features require a broadband Internet connection; ISP fees apply. PS3 games, controllers and some accessories are not compatible with the PS4.

Waiting in line at the East side BestBuy at midnight was interesting. Aside from the morons who came DRUNK and was annoyingly STUPID DRUNK, it was surprisingly an pleasant experience. Anyway.. setup was rather easy and straight to the point. Wasn't expecting an update patch right away.. but ok. I wish they would of kept the old PS3 menu interface. The new one will take abit to getting used to. I don't like the big icons below the menus. I put a blue ray movie in and notice the ROM is alittle louder then ususal. I supposed that's normal. Joystick is very nice and smooth. I may want to get the camera one of these days. All in all its pretty zippy and load up time is quick.

What's great about it: Joystick, smaller, 1080dp!!
What's not so great: currently no DLNA, the new menu

How many cameras do you need?1-3
After ordering 2 other outdoor security camera, this one by far is THE BEST. super easy to setup, no editing your browsers, no fuss. Very Very easy to setup.
The control of this is awesome, you can check your cam from anywhere. Logitech server is abit slow, but very nice addition.
The only problem I had was the cost of the. Its very expensive, but in the end, your safety and security is the most important.

Just got this today, installation was easy. like everybody else saids, I don't like the smuushy buttons. the Interface is slow, just not very snappy.
I'm running this on wireless and when ever I play movies over the internet, it sluggish and at times long waits. even for music and pictures. hummm, I dunno I may take this back and just get the sony PS3

Ok, I talk to a sales rep from bestbuy. got it down to -$50.00. Bought it for $469.99. went to pick it up, took it to the back and talk to the installer. After a few number crunching, it was going to cost me an additional $300.00 to install it on my Dodge Grand Caravan... OMG, that's almost $800 bucks total for this... Needless to say, I return it for refund. It it was under $500 bucks, I would of done it, but the extra cost just did me in.
What's great about it: It does as its describe
What's not so great: the labor!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I didn't look at the price before i purchase it. I figure it was somewhat around 5-8 bucks. After I got it home and play around with it. It was cool and it did what its suppose to. but I just couldn't live with myself, buying it at that price.
its not bad, but its over price

This mouse also comes with a mouse leather bag. so you can transport it with out it getting scratch or damage. very nice touch

After reading other people's review on other air cleaner. I did some research and this one was the best choice for me. I've been sneezing, running noise and had more allergie problems in the past few months. This item over night made my sleep, sooo much better. Its easy to clean and runs super quiet!! Even at setting 5, the fans still quiet.
I wish it was cheaper, i would of gotten 2 of these. but one isn't too bad.

I order the lower cost lens the 55mm-200mm. It was ok, everything about it was nice, but you can feel it was cheaply made. Don't get me wrong, its a good lens for the price. I feel it wasn't the right lens for me.
So I return it and got this one 18-200mm. OMG what a differents, going from a 52mm to 72mm, and the quality of the lens is nice. Everything about this len is nice. the only down fall of it, is its abit heavy, but you can't deny quality!

Overall3 out of 5
3 out of 5Pros and cons
By grandma
I bought this GPS as a replacement or our old Tom Tom. I've had it a few weeks now, and there are some things I like about it, and some that are still a problem.
PROS
-The user interface is easy to use, and if you run into anything tricky, the entire manual is on the device under "Help" in the settings.
-The search for things like restaurants, etc is easy to use
-The lifetime data access is great!
- It has an option for "safety mode" which is hands-free while you're driving, and it gives more verbal details in that mode.
-Although it has a Bluetooth interface which can do all kinds of things with your smartphone, I haven't tried it yet. I probably will at some point.
-Their customer service live agents are awesome! I called before we bought it to ask questions, and the guy took the time to explain all the features of their different models to help me choose which one I needed.

CONS
-I never could get the live traffic updates to load. It kept saying "no traffic info available" or "this will take time to load", but it never did. I'm going to have to call customer service about that. Since this is one of the main reasons I bought it, this is why I gave a 3 star rating. If they can get this resolved, I would give it 5 stars.

it has to connect to your phone to get traffic and weather updates.
when you connect Bluetooth it to your phone, you can get text, calls and answer thru your Garmin. it's pretty neat

how often do you have to replace the pre-filter, and at what cost?
there should be a LED indicator. that will tell you when u need to wash it.

Is this lens good for taking action sports shots from far away?
Yes, 18-200mm is by far the best short and long range lens! This lens is much better then the cheaper 18-200mm plastic lens. Its well made, feels great and takes great close or far pictures!
