I was able to set-up my home wi-fi with the need to use the Best Buy support. I guess it would come in handy for someone who is unsure how to set-up their network. I'm sure the folks at the Geek Squad could walk you through the procedure to make things easier and answer any question that you might have.

3.0
I purchased this combo cable modem/wireless router to replace my wireless Netgear router that quite working. It works Ok as a cable modem but not so good in regards to the wireless end. I live in an average size one floor ranch house and the range is pretty poor compared to the old Netgear wireless router. Even in a room not that far from the router and the signal quality is poor. I'm very disappointed in that regard. I guess in retrospect I should have just stayed with the SECTV supplied modem and bought a new wireless router instead. I should have figured that when you combine two products together that something is going to suffer/be compromised. I was hoping the dual band would assist more in that respect, but no. Unfortunately by the time I discovered how poor it performed in this regard I was past the return period so I'll just have to live with it for now. So, if you need a lot of range/distance or have a large home, I would keep looking for something that performs better!!

I bought this cable to connect my Olympus TG870 to my Panasonic 65" plasma TV. It worked well, displaying the picture quite well....sharp and clear with no issues. Good deal for the price I paid for it via a Deal of The Day promotion. Did a store pick-up and that worked well, too!!

I took the camera on a trip my wife and I went to the Philippines to see her family. I used it for a wide variety of pictures, anywhere from scenery pics to underwater pics at a hotel swimming pool, to pics while we toured some of the 7000 plus islands that make up the Philippines. We did some snorkeling and took a lot of still pics and videos. I was pretty impressed for a simple point and shoot camera. It managed to do a pretty good job through a wide variety of circumstances. I had no issues with any water seepage inside the camera. I guess my main gripe would be with the charging design and the Olympus specific plug that is needed. Other then that it works well, but don't expect a DSLR quality pic!! One other thing....watch the placement of your hands on the camera body....it's easy to get your finger in the way due to the lens placement!!

I purchased the Bose QC 35's mainly for a trip my wife and I were going on to visit her family in the Philippines. I've been there before and know of the long flight times and noise that accompanies the flights, so I decided after much research to try the much acclaimed Bose headphones. Since it was a last minute decision I didn't have enough time to try them out at home, I just gave them a full charge and looked over the instructions before leaving. To make a long story a bit shorter, I was really impressed with the noise reduction and the sound quality of the headphones, as well as the comfort of them on the two 15 hour flight segments. What I was not impressed about was an issue with the cable plugging in to the headset. There's an issue with the plug-in connection on the headset which required some careful positioning of the plug into the headset for it to function properly. After playing around with it I was able to get it to function properly, but any tension on the cable caused it to act up and disconnect the sound from the planes entertainment system. That was a major disappointment but I'm glad that I could get it to work somewhat. I'll see if I can exchange them at Best Buy before I try going to Bose for the warranty. Either way, I hope that I can get this taken care of before my next trip;)

I bought this cable to replace the original piece that came with my ipad. It seems to be built better then the original and I like the 90 degree plug since it gives more surface area to unplug the cable so you're not pulling on the cable itself.

I bought the Monster Gold Home Theater Kit due to the price/Deal of The Day. It was an unbeatable price for what was included. After doing more research I decided to return it due to the low 1080 joules of protection. A lot depends on what you are using it for. If you have some high-end electronics more joules of protection would be worth the extra money!! It was a good price but I wanted something with more joules. There are better Monster products out there!!

Samsung - Galaxy S7 edge 32GB - Gold Platinum (Sprint)
Work, rest and play with the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge. A massive 5.5-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen goes all the way to the edges of the phone so that you get the maximum area possible to work with. Solid water resistance, great processing and masses of memory round out this Samsung Galaxy S7 edge.
Good Camera...for a Phone
Customer Rating

The S7 Edge is an Ok phone but too expensive. The camera is pretty impressive for a phone, but give me a real camera for taking pics. The battery life is mediocre at best. The edge feature can be annoying and gets in the way at times. In retrospect I should have waited for the new i-phone to come out and see what that would have brought to the table. In regards to the Sprint service, I'm not impressed at all. Poor quality sound...dropped calls...price/fees. I can't wait until I can get out of the service contract. At least I got the $200 BB gift card on the purchase!!

I'm not sure if this applies to all the PNY SD cards like this one, but it was made in Japan, which is surprising since it seems most of the cards are being made elsewhere. The card worked as advertised and I had no issues with it. A good quality product!

Bonus items same in store as online?
The description says memory card is sold separately, but then the Free Bonus Items indicate a PNY 16GB memory card, Shutterfly 8X8 photo book, and a Nikon WU-1A Wireless Mobile Adapter come with the bundle. Are these bonus items available in store and online, or only if the product is ordered online?
As best as I can tell, the deal should be available either in store or on-line......at least it was that way at my location~!!
