I have been a baseball fan since around 1982. The Show always brings a lot of fun. The graphics have improved and game play is simple for any level. Very cool to see the minor league parks in use such as with West Sacramento for the A's.

Excellent Cable for Charging iPhones

This is easily the best charging cable for my iPhone. I bought others from the airport and hotel and those did not last too long. The phone charges quickly and the cable is built much better than my previous cables.

I love this charging cable for my iPhone. I have one inside my home and another inside my car. Previous cables I have used were a different brand and make, but those would not last too long. I get more usage of out this before it has to be replaced.

The CM1000 Ultra-High Speed Cable Modem, with speeds up to 1Gbps and DOCSIS 3.1 is 10X faster than DOCSIS 3.0 devices. It's backward compatible with DOCSIS 3.0 and ready for future service plan upgrades for XFINITY from Comcast, Cox, and Spectrum. A Gigabit Ethernet port provides faster access and downloads.
 

The manufacturer's info states: "Not compatible with Cable bundled voice services". What exactly does that mean? I plan on ordering Comcast's "triple play", which is internet, TV, and a phone. Will this work with that plan?

I have the Triple Play but used to have the voice feature. This modem will not work with the voice feature.

In my area I have gig speed but there are no cable modems that will provide gig speed with the voice feature. You can see the list of cable modems that you can buy from retail on their web site and which works for gig speed, voice, etc.

Since I had ADT for home security and was paying $57 per month I dropped their service and replaced the voice feature with Comcast/Xfnity's home security.

With this modem I now have gig speed and still have the same bill amount with my Triple Play except now I save $57 per month by dropping ADT.

If you do what I did make sure to get a Netgear Orbi router too. Your Internet speed will be the same throughout your house as well as outside in your front and back yards.
