After having read about raving reviews, I decided to buy this. It was fairly easy set up. Unfortunately one camera was defective. It showed pink pictures. Despite resetting it several times, it continued to show pink picture. If you do a Google search, this problem seems to be very common. I decided to get a new camera and got it exchanged. The 4 cameras are working OK for now. Hope they stay working. From my own experience and many others writing about similar problem, I would recommend this with reservation.

Since I switched over from PCs to Macs, things have worked out real smooth. It is a totally different feel right from start up to doing tasks. I generally carry mine all over the place. It can easily connected to the net using my iPhone.
The screen is really nice. Colors are vivid. Also the light weight makes it very easy to carry around. Major plus -- Apple stores "teach" everything one wants to know and do for free. I have gone to two such "classes". Even though they are really basic, the instructor takes time to answer all questions very patiently. Personally, I am a very happy camper.

I travel extensively. This bag will be adequate to carry my Mac Book Air. I have a much larger backpack. But it becomes very heavy as I tend to stuff a bunch of unnecessary items. This one is well made with heavy duty Nylon. I have never used this brand in the past and hope will hold up like a TUMI bag :-)

I purchased this speaker for my brother. He is very happy with its performance and sound. He says he would strongly recommend it. I have one similar one purchased a few years ago It is also performing flawlessly. and sounds great. I have no qualms in recommending to those who are considering this for an easily portable blue tooth speaker.

After extensive search, we settled upon this TV for its depth of color and clarity. Initially it was on sale -- with substantial reduction in price for the upcoming Christmas sale. Soon we found another legitimate site selling exact same TV for almost $500.00 less. I showed this ad to the manager (supervisor) of the store. He immediately reduced the price to match the ad price. Over all a very happy camper.

 Mohu - Leaf 50 Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna with 60-Mile Range - Black/White
Mohu - Leaf 50 Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna with 60-Mile Range - Black/White
Launched in 2011, this design established the trend of paper-thin TV antennas. Universally compatible with all HDTVs, the Mohu Leaf 50 offers the benefits and powerful performance of our notorious design coupled with the Jolt Switch USB in-line amplifier to reach a 60-mile range. Control TV signal amplification in real time with a simple ON/OFF switch. When it’s "on", TV signals are increased for clearer picture and sound, sometimes receiving channels beyond your antenna’s standard range. When it’s "off", amplification is bypassed while TV signals are still filtered from FM and cellular interference. When plugged into your TV’s USB port, the amplifier only draws power when the TV is on, saving energy, or use the included USB power adapter with any standard wall outlet. Perfect for suburban areas, compact living spaces, single-TV homes, dorm rooms, RVs…take this efficient antenna just about anywhere you go. Easy to set up and easy on the eyes. Multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF elements receive TV signals from both sides, so you can show either side of the black or white reversible design or paint the Leaf antenna for a customized look. Note: The range of this antenna will vary greatly depending on the height, power, and frequency of signals coming from the TV tower, as well as the height of the antenna installation, the terrain, and obstacles between your home and the broadcast towers. Find your TV towers and channels by using our free Antenna Point app on your android or iOS device.

This was purchased for my daughter's guest bed room. We could get just 3 channels that we could watch. The others are religious channels and shopping channels. Despite the fact the broadcasting station is about 28 nautical miles, this antenna barely gets anything worthwhile watching.

I purchased after reading several positive reviews. Over all well constructed. The bass is more than adequate for almost daily use. I travel a lot. This head phone comes in handy to carry around. Of the several pairs I won, this one amongst the top few I would recommend.

I read numerous reviews of this leather bag. Many complained that the magnets did not work as intended. I got three very powerful 1/2 inch round magnets from HD. They stay stuck to the flap and closed the bag firmly as intended. It cost about $3.50 to make this fix.
On the positive side, the leather is excellent (I cleaned it with leather cleaner and preserver). It is soft and supple.Adequate space with fair padding for a 13 inch Mac book air and additionally for my iPad.
Over all satisfied for the purchase of this bag on line for a fraction of the cost (on clearance) for what one would pay three or four times the cost.

which type?

what is the type of wireless speakers system can i use for my stereo system and tv?
No. This is a very tiny speaker generally used along with your phone or iPad to listen to the music. You will have to purchase a much beefier bluetooth speaker for you to hear the TV and stereo sound properly. This may not be enough to handle the needs. See suggested speaker for your need.

My husband is a truck driver. In your opinion, what would be the best purchase for him. How often would he have to charge the headset? noise cancellation is a must, and he has an iPhone

These are not noise cancelling head phones, but block almost 80% of ambient noise in ordinary situations. Being a truck driver, check out the wireless Bose head phones. Even though this unit is expensive, you will get what you pay for.

These headphones are almost new and no one discounts them. Perhaps wait till Christmas to see if the price will come down any (I seriously doubt it). I have tried these. Perhaps a Christmas buy for me.

I bought a headphone (Sony XB950BT) about 3 months ago. Why does the battery drop quickly just about 3 hours playback? (I'm from Vietnam)

Try to get Alkaline battery with a name. Also do not mix old and new batteries. Rechargeable batteries do not hold charge under these conditions. If all else fails, if still under warranty, take it back to the store and get a replacement.

Make sure your device can handle 64 GB. Majority of them can handle up to 32 GB. If puchased within the warranty period, you can take it back to Best Buy and ask them to check it if it functions Ok. Hope this helps.
