Great value

I've had a Canon printer for a while and the ink has lasted a good amount of time. Even if you don't print much, value packs on ink are always the way to go.

Good step but poor execution
on June 18, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
I already had a Zwave home automation system when I bought my Harmony Hub, so this was a great addition since it would let me control my lights. However, the experience when managing and controlling the Zwave devices is far less than ideal. It feels clunky and not all devices work with the Harmony Extender. Another miss was the lack of scene support with a Vera system. I have a scene for my theater lights on, off, and dim but there's not a way to simply run those scenes when certain things happen.
I actually ended up using a Hue emulator which runs on a home server and forwards commands to the correct devices and supports scenes. Best of all, this option was free. It does require some technical savviness to setup.

Cheap Whole-House Audio Option
on June 13, 2016
Posted by: jayw
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had been looking for a whole-house audio system for a while. Options like Sonos are great but are expensive, more than $100 per speaker. Chromecast Audio provides a super simple and super cheap option for whole-house audio.
We have parties at our house often which can span multiple floors. It feels great walking from one floor to another when all the speakers are playing the same exact place in the same exact song. We even plugged one into a portable speaker for outdoor use on our deck.

This is one of the easiest filters to install that I've had. It doesn't leave a plastic taste either.

Using the controller for about a month now, I don't have any complaints. I haven't used an controller accessories like the keypad or headset. I don't notice any lag and the controller works fine wirelessly from across the room.

Great next episode
on January 22, 2016
Posted by: jayw
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've played a couple earlier GTA games and this is a fun addition to the franchise. The online play is great but not required. The mobile app adds some benefit to the game but seems gimmicky, especially since it feels like a very cheap app with a bad user experience. Local story line is great and the world is so expansive that I can play this for days without stopping.

This show is great but does take a little bit to really get into it. So much is happening in the first season it can be hard to grasp all the characters, dynamics, and plot.

Google Home Mini is a smart speaker powered by the Google Assistant, so you can ask it questions and tell it to do things. Just start with "Ok Google" to enjoy your entertainment, get answers from Google, tackle your day, and control your smart home. Google Home Mini works on its own or you can have a few around the house, giving you the power of Google anywhere."
Can the mini connect to any radio station or does it have to be an internet radio??
None of the Google Home products have a radio antenna. To listen to live radio, it uses an integration with TuneIn. You can see which stations they support on their website: https://tunein.com/

The Google Home model says it comes with 2 microphones, while the mini doesn't have any listed. How is it going to hear you ?
You're correct that it needs a mic to hear you. The specs are wrong because it does have one.
