Patrick Stewart and the Future
on February 21, 2022
Posted by: BRodeck
Verified Purchase:Yes
Journey to Space wasn't quite what I expected when I purchased it.it. It did a good job looking back in time to the first rockets.
Much of the movie was about the future, and with Patrick Stewart hosting the movie, we are allowed to assume everything up to Faster Than Light (FTL). It's too early for that!

Lord of The Dunes
on January 28, 2022
Posted by: BRodeck
Verified Purchase:Yes
My wife and I read all of the Dune books as they came out, but there are many different story lines to which can focus on.
The previous serious movie version (featuring Sting) attempted to introduce the different story angles, but they only had the time for a single movie.
The Sting version of Dune seems to have required more knowledge of the world than this version.
The Dune world if this new version is set up more like Lord of Rings.
But keeping hard-core fans excited to keep to the series rolling will require the Director and staff to choose one or two valid story lines and focus on them.

You have things to do and people to see. But what happens when you~re on the go and your phone~s battery just can~t keep up with your busy lifestyle? The Insignia NS-MB27CK21 26,800 mAh Portable Charger for Most USB Devices is the key to keeping your phone at the ready. One USB-C port and two standard USB ports provide 42 W of power, letting you use this portable battery with multiple devices at the same time. A large 26,800 mAh capacity lasts longer so you can charge over and over. An LED indicator shows you how much battery power is remaining, and the portable battery~s slim, compact design makes it easy to slip into a purse or pocket. Never find yourself held back by your phone~s battery life again.

Great Power Always Comes with a Price!
on January 28, 2022
Posted by: BRodeck
Verified Purchase:Yes
I consistently needed my iPad, my iPhone, and my wife’s iPhone to be charged with wall power by the time we get up in the morning. We have elderly equipment an iPhone 6, iPhone 7 Plus and an early iPad Pro.
My battery life in the Apple equipment has deteriorated to the point (especially the iPad Pro) where 1.5 to 2 hours of work time on it is all I can count on reliably.
Mobile power bricks have pluses and minuses. The only minus one I have for this Insignia Charger is it’s weight.
This is simply what I need to get the power and quick re-charge capabilities with this Insignia model. I bought a different manufacture’s product, and it is not as heavy, but it is sufficient to plug the phons in.

Any Time Now to Die
on January 10, 2022
Posted by: BRodeck
Verified Purchase:Yes
No Time to Die is semi-disjointed, as everyone is flying around, chasing multiple objectives which kind of pile up along the way.
The segment when the Type 45 Destroyer "HMS Dragon" fired its missiles with friend and foe going ballistic and presumably Bond James Bond truly went ballistic as well. Or at least parts of BJB!
The movie ends with the promise of more of the same!

How People Respond to Impending Disaster
on January 10, 2022
Posted by: BRodeck
Verified Purchase:Yes
My wife and I watched Greenland, not clear on what we were going to see. It was a good depiction of the various ways people respond to impending disaster.
We aren't sure why Greenland specifically would provide protection during such an event, but that is a minor nit. The actors all did a good job showing emotion, etc..
Once seen, it's not a movie we would see again, since it's mainly so dark.

Great Percussion Massager In The Right Location
on January 1, 2022
Posted by: BRodeck
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have a good deal of pain in my lower back, my neck, and my upper thighs give me a great deal of pain. I get cortisone shots for my neck every 3 months, but they don’t provide much in the way of stopping the pain.
I purchased the HyperVolt Plus (Bluetooth) Percussion Massager to see where it might help with the pain - the answer is that it does a greasy job on long muscles like the thighs.
I would consider a different product for bony areas of the neck - this unit will increase the pain.
This unit is outstanding when used properly.

Three Failed Blends and a Gasket, and You’re Out
on January 1, 2022
Posted by: BRodeck
Verified Purchase:Yes
We have owned several NutriBullet blenders over the last decade. They come with good documentation of the options valuable, once the NutriBullet has even purchased.
The bad thing about the NutriBullet is the gasket which keeps the product in the cups, and not outside of the cup. My old system worked well, except until the gasket failed in the blender. I could not find a wenbsite page with parts like the gasket to purchase.
My old unit was getting pretty old and hard to clean so I purchased this unit.
The first blend went well, and the second toe did not,
During the second blend, the gasket got tangled in the blades.
The third and final blend was very difficult to twist-lock, so I returned it for a same-item exchange. This will be the last chance I give the NutriBullet Pro !

Those who thought they knew slacking San Francisco car valet InchShaun XuInch (Simu Liu) best didn't know him at all. In actuality, he was the son of Asia's most dreaded crime lord-the centuries-lived Wenwu (Tony Leung)-who'd had him trained from the cradle to be the greatest martial artist alive... and whose patience with him to come home and claim his infamous birthright has just run out. Action- and fantasy-packed screen bow for Marvel Comics' Master of Kung Fu co-stars Awkwafina, Michelle Yeoh. 132 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

Just Not My Cup Of Tea
on December 25, 2021
Posted by: BRodeck
Verified Purchase:Yes
Shang-Chi is a movie with a great deal of action caused by customs (that I suspect) are more in line with other movie-goers.
The middle and some of the end of the movie just did what we had already seen.
Not a bad show, just not my cup of tea!

A Fantastic Movie Set in the 1300s, Cast Very
on December 16, 2021
Posted by: BRodeck
Verified Purchase:Yes
We watched the Last Duel at home last night. We were drawn to the movie more due to the cast than knowing everything about the movie.
This movie went down a path that blew us away. If you are a person interested in stories that are driven by plot, and supported by cast, then you get both in this movie!

Use your iPad in four configurations with this ZAGG keyboard and case. The magnetic hinge securely holds the device for use in keyboard, video, case or book modes, while the tough polycarbonate shell protects against damage from impacts. The Li-Po battery in this ZAGG keyboard and case keeps you typing for up to two years.
 

It says detachable, how easy or difficult will it detach? I dont care about detaching, so if its difficult to do that even better.

You simply pull them apart. The instructions explicitly demonstrate the best approach but there is nothing in the way of cables to disconnect.

Is this a Smart Keyboard for iPad Pro 9.7?

Don’t know your definition of “Smart Keyboard”.

It communicates with the iPad via Bluetooth and gets charged up separately from the iPad.

It does have labor-saving capabilities like a key whoa how shows all apps running, identical to the double press of the home button.
