What's great about it: Easy to use, fast cycle times
I'm not a professional photographer but purchased a DSRL without a flash so I needed a lite for those situations where a flash was necessary or where I needed some additional fill light. This unit works well and has all the basic and some advanced features that are great to have. Manual mode as well as TTL when in the proper mode in the camera. I also wanted a flash that in the future could be controlled by another flash unit remotely. This unit meets that need.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Small compact size, great sound quality and noise isolation & reduction
What's not so great: Price, battery box location on the cord
I never thought I would spend $299 on a pair of ear buds but Bose headphones have always impressed me. I have a pair of the on-ear QuietComfort 3 Acoustic Noise Cancelling headphones that I purchased from Bose at least 5 years ago and they have always performed up to the task. The sound quality for a pair of semi-small headphones is fantastic, deep base tones, great high frequency response and overall quality. The only draw back to them was traveling with them was a little hard due to the size. They didn't fold up small and I found that on an airplane they didn't quite cancel out enough of the background noise and since they were on-ear they let a little noise in. I have a trip coming up where I will be flying a lot and wanted something smaller with more sound isolation. I saw the commercial for these and wanted to give them a try.
I have yet to fly with them but just testing them inside the house I can run a large microwave and stand less then 5ft away and if I didn't see the light on in the microwave I wouldn't know that it's running. I pulled them out of the box and I'm blown away at their performance. I want to say that my hearing is in excellent shape as well so it's not a case of hearing loss being a contributing factor. The overall quality of sound is fantastic for ear-buds however don't expect super deep hard base hits from them (they are only ear buds). I'm not disappointed at all with their sound quality and would HIGHLY recommend these for anyone that needs to shutout the world while listening to music.
The one advantage with these is they also have a "aware" mode which you can turn on. This lets in a little bit of outside sounds on purpose and can be toggled on/off from the button on the cord.
OVERALL: Bose hit this one out of the park in terms of performance, fit and functionality. I think that the battery box could have used a little tweaking in terms of location on the line but it's not anything that would keep me from recommending them. I only rated it lower than excellent on Durability because I just got them so haven't had a chance to wear them.
My other pair of Bose headphones has been excellent and after 4-5 years of use finally started showing wear. They are still working though.
This product has... Perfect fit, short cord

What's great about it: Great number of features, tons of customization
What's not so great: Expensive, weight
This camera has fantastic performance and is customization almost to a fault. I purchased this camera because I didn't want the gear limiting my photos. Now I have no excuse for bad photos except my technique. The weight of the camera isn't too bad if you use a side sling type harness. This is not a light camera but that's because it's very durable.

Do the Bose 20 Acoustic Noice cancelling earbuds work on android and Ipad? I have both devices.
I know for sure that Bose says the QC20 are designed to work with Windows, Blackberry and Android phones and the QC20i are designed for iPhones. My assumption is that either product will play music on any brand of phone/device using the standard plug but the phone answering buttons won't work if the phone is not the correct type for the ear buds.
