This is probably my third purchase of this type of memory chip from Samsung. They are easy to use, durable, and reliable. Even though I no not treat them nicely they never go on strike.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Rayovac's batteries are probably the best value in the market right now. These batteries last just long enough to get your money's worth. Please dispose of them properly once used.

This gift card is the perfect gift to give to your 'shoot 'em' game addicts. Steam has a big selection of them and most are less than $50.

This is a very affordable WiFi Range Extender, but it is not as powerful as I expected it to be. I placed the extender considerably close from my WiFi tower (100 feet?) and the signal is average at best.

I have reservations about this product. It seems that HP is bundling color cartridges and giving you a 'deal' with free photo paper - but the deal is cut short because it turns sour very quickly. Whereas before you could buy individual colors now you can not. Each color gets used at a different rate, so you get stuck with empty and half full cartridges all the time. The 'free paper deal' gets old quickly. They end up collecting dust in your office.

This payment method for Facebook games is probably the easiest to use. You do not have to disclose any Credit Card information to Facebook. Just redeem the secret code and start playing. They make for great gifts also!

The Hp 564 cartridge is well worth its price if you print a lot. With two of these you can print a few more dozen papers than the XL version. The only downfall of the 564 is that if you do not print for a few weeks the ink dries up.

will this work for my situation?

Our router is downstairs on the other end of a 2000 sq ft house. My All-in-One computer is upstairs in bedroom at opposite end of house. Mediacom is our provider. Will the Netgear Range Extender work for me at the same speed as the wired computer downstairs? And where shall the range extender be placed? Upstairs or downstairs? Closer to router or All-in-one? Thanks, Joanne
This is an excellent question. I live in a Condo made of cement, and I find that the extender's signal is somewhat poor. I wonder if the signal would be better in a wooden home or one with insulated walls. Try checking that online first. Good luck.

Camping trailer?

i want something to take with me on trips because some campground wifi is very weak. Will any of these pick up the wifi from the campground office and repeat it stronger in my trailer?
Please see my review of this product. Netgear's extender is poor at best. However, the conditions where I use mine are different. I live in a Condo so the signal has to go through cement walls. If you are camping there is more 'open space' - which may make the signal more accessible.
