Worth the wait but seemed rushed

Being a huge fan of the books, this was a movie that I had been waiting a long, long time for. They did manage to translate most of the main storyline to the screen but it seemed rushed. They could have added 30-45 minutes to the film to fill in some of the blanks. Some of the back story was left out and some aspects of the story had to be changed to fit it into the 2 hour window that they had. It would have gotten 4-5 stars from me had they not skipped over some of the main story. Unfortunately, they get penalized because of how high the bar had been set by the books.

That being said, for anyone that didn't read the books (I pluralized because they also changed Bean's story and character for that matter) should enjoy the movie. It is action packed, the effects were amazing and the main point of the story was left in tact.

What's great about it: Story and acting

What's not so great: The length of the movie

I would recommend this to a friend!

Definitely the best VOIP service

This service is one of the easiest electronic installations that I have ever done in our home. The registration process was simple and they had numerous local phone numbers for me to choose from. There are even more if you do not care if you have a local number because you could choose any area in the country for your phone number. You are given a 3 months of premiere service for free to try out that service and then you have the choice of keeping premiere service for $10 + taxes per month or going with basic service for just the taxes each month (It seems the government found a way to tax free stuff now). Obviously taxes will vary depending on your area. Mine happens to be $4 per month.

After registration, the hardware is literally, and without exaggeration, plug & play. I plugged the Ooma device into my router and my phone into the Ooma device. Any phone could be used as it is a standard phone jack on the device. I went with a cheaper AT&T wireless phone that was on sale at Best Buy. The Ooma device goes through it's boot-up sequence and updates the software automatically. Once that is done the system was online and the phone was working for outbound calls. It was about 15 minutes until inbound calls were making their way to my phone.

As for sound quality, I have no complaints. It is comparable to a land line. This may vary depending on your internet connection and home network.

I have already recommended Ooma to all my friends that still have conventional phone lines to their homes.
