This case goes with my my Note 5 very well. I have received many compliments on how this case looks. This is a great step forward for the S-View series of cases.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Having the convenience to charge wirelessly is very nice. I also like the fact it saves the amount of times you have to plug a charger into the micro-usb port. The only thing I don't like is that it adds enough thickness that I can't use some of the cases I bought for the Note 4.

I have purchased a spare battery and charging case for most if not all of my smartphones. If you are going to be away from a wall outlet for an extended period of time this is a must have. Its also great if you forget to put your phone on charge and are going out for a while. Easy swap.

This is a pretty nice case to buy at the store. There may be some better options online but as far as buying a case locally this is a good choice.

I tried three different Zagg glass covers and even had them installed at the Zagg kiosk on our local mall. I was willing to try a few attempts but after three I called it quits. Very disappointed in this product. A little more R&D might have made the difference.

I have been looking at smart-watches now for about a year or so. The Zenwatch combines all the features I wanted and most importantly a nice look. I have never received so many compliments on a watch and I have worn nice watches for a while now. Battery life could be a little better but I can easily make it through 1 to 1.5 days. The only thing I don't like is the way the watch is charged. Wireless charging would have added thickness to the watch but maybe a charging stand or similar would have been nice. Overall I am extremely happy with this purchase.

What's great about it: Sensitivity, Features, Escort Live, Escort database
What's not so great: Price $$
I drive a whole lot of miles every year and have had a radar detector for 10+ years. I upgraded from the 9500i which was already a very nice detector. But, after reading about the MAX I felt it was a good time for an upgrade and give the wife the 9500. The MAX not only has the tried and true Passport sensitivity, which is even more sensitive than the 9500, but it has many new features that make it all around leader in detector technology. I have also purchased the SmartCord Live cord to get the most out of the MAX and it has really been an amazing driving tool. Threats are noted in real time and are auto-updated to other users within the Escort app. Separate of all that if you are willing to pay the big bucks for a radar detector this is easily the one to get.

Escort - Max 360 Radar Detector for Most Vehicles - Black
This Escort Max 360 0100024-2 radar detector features USB connectivity, a smartphone app and connection to the DEFENDER database to provide you with up-to-date, real-time alerts. GPS AutoLearn technology isolates real signals from false alarms.
Do you need to have the escort app in order to use the radar after 1 year subscription that is free if yes how much is it? Do you have use use the app every time you use the radar and will the app use your data?
The radar detector will function independently without the use of the app. The app itself will cost you around $50 a year and will use data when it is running. In my opinion $4 or so a month is worth the cost and you really get the full benefit from the Max 360. If that sounds like too much money Escort offers some other high quality detectors that don't have the app functionality.

What do I need to switch from a desktop to a laptop and be wireless?
I currently have a desktop with dial up internet with a brighthouse cable modem. Besides the laptop, what else would I need to buy to go wireless?
You would also need to buy a wireless router that will hook to your modem and create a wifi network. Choose a quality entry level wireless router from Linksys or Netgear.

Sony - 40" Class (40" Diag.) - LED - 1080p - Smart - HDTV
Sony BRAVIA KDL40W600B LED HDTV: Relax with your favorite movies and shows in full high-definition with this Sony BRAVIA HDTV's 1080p display that delivers crisp, clear images. Stream media easily with the Smart TV functionality and built-in Wi-Fi.
How to connect to existing (older) Sony receiver and our current VHS/DVD
What is needed to connect this Sony BRAVIA KDL40W600B with our Sony FM Stereo/FM-AM Receiver STR-GX4ES for stereo sound...also connections needed for SONY Video Cassette Recorder/DVD recorder RDR-VX515? It is time to replace our very old SONY TV but the replacement must work with our other components.
Stereo sound from the TV will be easy but connecting older video equipment may require a converter/switch. Audio can be achieved via a 3.5 mm to RCA cable to your stereo reciever. This will capture all sound from the TV including the smart apps. If your DVD/VHS combo has RCA connections (red, white and yellow) you will be all set as there is one classic RCA connection. I have attached a pic from the manual that looks like your set-up.

Is this escort works with salute in the sky?
You wrote "salute" and I will assume that is an auto-correct error. If you meant satellites than yes. The 9500iX and the Passport MAX have GPS (satellite) functionality.
