Give More of Himself

Tom Cruise has had some spectacular hit movies.
This was not one of them!
In places it seemed like he needed the money from the movie, rather that giving himself into the movie.
Oh well.

Easy smart lighting. Add color to any room with a single smart bulb, which offers warm to cool white light as well as 16 million colors. Use Bluetooth for instant light control in one room, or connect to the Hue bridge (sold separately) to unlock the full set of smart lighting features.

Indestructible LED Lights? Maybe!
on March 7, 2021
Posted by: BRodeck
Verified Purchase:Yes
These white and color ambiance KED Bulbs have been surprisingly good, considering how much trouble I got into with them.
These lights were intended to go high up in the ceiling, and I was still about 6 ft belo them with my 11 ft ladder. Using a pole intended to install lights at a distance, I managed to drop the lights on the floor3-4 times.
Ant first I thought it would splatter, but the lights came out of my clumsy attempts to install them. I finally got them installed and figured I had done every thing I could to break them.
Instead, I have beautiful lights spanning the color spectrum.

Battle of the Bulge Indeed!
on March 7, 2021
Posted by: BRodeck
Verified Purchase:Yes
This movie is incredibly poor, compared with actual battles and how they are fought.
The biggest impression I was left with is that these are actors who have never have never been in the military, and have never gained the mindset of actual military forces.

Disappointing Drop in Value of the Protection Plan
on February 22, 2021
Posted by: BRodeck
Verified Purchase:Yes
My purchasing record at Best Buy is extensive and spans many years.
As a retired IT person, I recognize the value of protecting your monetary investment in hardware and software that goes off of warranty in a year.
That said, the value of the Geek Squad protection seems diminished, which caused my overall Rating to drop from a hearty 5 to a disappointing 2.
In prior years, the plan you bought was the only one they offered, but it meant that you could replace the equipment that failed, or get your purchase money back.
Now, there are two plans with variations (length of of plan).
The Protection Plan, which ships your equipment to the manufacturer for repair, may take a month to get back.
The Replacement Placement, which allows you to pick up an identical article, with the caveat that if the cost has gone up, or you want a different unit, you are entitled to only the cost of the item when you bought it.
If I’m have this wrong, I hope a Best Buy support person will respond to this review.

TurboTax software Makes Taxes Go Easily
on February 19, 2021
Posted by: BRodeck
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have been using TurboTax Deluxe for 8 years now and have been impressed every year.
I use Schedule A because of church offerings, supporting numerous charities, and give material items away as we slowly divest items to move into a retirement community.
TurboTax makes this easy to accomplish.

Attaching two cables into the provided banana clip connectors was difficult.

A very capable A/V 7.2 Receiver
on January 23, 2021
Posted by: BRodeck
Verified Purchase:Yes
I am still learning capabilities for my replacement Sony receiver.
That said, this follow-on Sony 1155 Watt receiver is improving features like serving up automatic surround sound. This used to be a bit more challenging, but now you attaché a special cable positioned at the ear level where you sit. It results in adjustments to individual speaker volumes to account for speaker locations.

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.
