This release contains the entire run of the BBC series Planet Earth, which was shot on revolutionary high-definition cameras over the course of five years, and utilized 40 cameramen in 200 locations. From the highest mountain peaks to the deepest river floors, Planet Earth sets out to capture on camera the most elusive creatures every known to humankind.

Yes this is not the Discovery Channel version, however this is just as good and in some areas better. The discovery channel does not take you in depth in some of the ocean and sea life voyages that BBC does here. For what it's worth, reading the amount of time and I'm sure hard work that BBC spent, coming up with what they have here, is something to appreciate. Definitely work the money. Picture quality is fantastic and the narration is great to listen to. It's amazing what life is out there, and you don't even know it.
What's great about it: Attention to detail
What's not so great: N/A

When I started using this product, I was actually very suprised at the sound quality. Its such a small transmitter for how effective it is. It's very simple. I've never used another again. It sounds just about as good as directly connecting. Well, as close as you can get. If you are deciding between this and another, just do yourself a favor and try this one out. *RECOMMEND*
What's great about it: Charges iPod, fantastic sound, Easy to pick up a good signal.
What's not so great: N/A

This movie completely went "UP" and beyond my expectations. I originally bought the movie to test my new calibration. After figuring out why the movie had 4 dics included, I finally popped it in. I would certainly recommend this to anyone looking for a great overall movie. I don't have kids, and i thought this movie kept my attention. GREAT JOB PIXAR.
What's great about it: The story keeps you interested from start to finish. Unbelievable picture quality
What's not so great: None

This is probably one of the best services you can add on to a new television. If you are buying a plasma, this services gets even better for you. Obviously the first thing you are going to notice is the visual improvement just by the quality of the colors. But something most people do not notice is the power consumption. By purchasing this service, you are not only cutting down the cost to run those gigantic beauties, but you are also extending the life of your product. The really do cut down on that electric bill. This is something i would receommend for any television. Yes the price seems kind of high but remember, those manufacturers are not making those settings to fit your room, they are making them to look better than the television next to it on the floor. Its your job to bring out its true quality once you find the best spot for it. ***RECOMMEND***
What's great about it: Picture improvement, energy usage.
What's not so great: nothing

This band brings more styles of music to the table than anyone i can think of. They remind you of a 3OH!3 mixed with Underoath. The breakdowns are terrific. Listen if you haven't already!
What's great about it: Energy, styles of music packed in
What's not so great: Very spastic, sometimes changes style too abrubptly.

When you listen to this, it can somewhat remind you of some older kind of rock. But it's really good. Guitar solo's are pretty sweet.
What's great about it: If you like the old Hoobastank, you can still hear some of that here.
What's not so great: Some songs sound alike in some ways.

When you first listen to it, you'll try to find at least one song with at least a little double bass or some punk scream, but, there really doesn't seem to be much, if any. Even though its a lot more easy listening, you will still enjoy it. Great voice and lyrics for this music. NICE!
What's great about it: Completely different from their old stuff. Yet, still great to listen to!
What's not so great: I still like their old stuff so its kind of a bummer in the same sense.

If a computer is listed as "sold out online," how do I get on a list to purchase when it becomes available again?
There is no list to purchase online. If you wish to go to a store however, you can sometimes order a product to be sent to you or the store once it is available for purchase again. (Sometimes the reason it is sold out online may be that the warehouse that Best Buy.com uses could be out of stock.

Is it possible to customize the Macbook Air through Best Buy?
I want to purchase the 11.6 inch Macbook Air but I would like to upgrade the processor to 1.6 GHz and the RAM to 4GB. These extra features are offered on Apple's website.
There are going to be 3 pre-built models that you can choose from as well as older models (for now). But to answer your question, you cannot customize each individual product.

What DirectConnect Kit for Ipod Hook-up works for an 05 Infinity
I have an Ipod Nano and I am trying to avoid using one of the FM Transmitters. Is there one that works well for the 2005 Infinity G35?
The Griffin Technology transmitters work very well. I listen to music with various ranges of sound and they produce a great signal to keep the sound quality good.

I purchased a Samsung 19' TV. The sound is not very good. Is there some device I can purchase to improve and increase the sound.
For a 19", you are going to have a hard time finding anything that isn't bigger than the television itself to increase the quality of the sound. Normally, those televisions aren't built with speakers that are needed for large sound output. Most of the time you are within 10 feet of the display. A soundbar will be your best bet if you can't run a "Y-Cable" to some external computer speakers.

anyone tried the portable power mat
yes. it's an okay device for multiple people. For example, I find it useless for an avid iPod user, simply because most iPod ready devices already charge it while in use. If you are going to charge your phone with it, and only ONE phone, it seems to be a waste of money, as you can just plug in the phone to the normal charging cord and save yourself some money. And there a really NO cameras that allow this to be attached to charge the batteries there and this does not work with laptops. So unless there are multiple users placing their cell phones on this device, it seems pointless to purchase.

What is the difference between a wired headset vs. bluetooth headset?
A Bluetooth headset works with Bluetooth compatible devices such as a cell phone, or PC/Mac and etc. this is a device that uses a frequency to transmit a signal "without wires" thus making it a great replacement for a wired headset. Rarely do I a difference between the two in quality.

do you have a wall mount that will mount into the corner?
a better option will be to purchase a full motion wall mount. This will be angled from one wall. Works just as well.

What do the class & type AB, BD, D, stand for?
amplifier classes are determined based on how efficient the power will be at a given time. If you have an amplifier classed at D, this may work better with subwoofers. Where as something like an A may be very inefficient for speakers that require a heavier power load.

Is there an adapter that allows me to play my mp3 player (NOT ipod) through my car stereo?
Yes. There are a few products that will work. Depending on the head unit already installed, you can use an FM Transmitter, a cassette adapter, or even something that will plug into the back of your head unit. All of these choices do have models that will play through your headphone jack.
