Was looking for a cheaper alternative to Harmon Kardon Studio speaker. This was a Deal of the Day and discounted heavily. Other reviewers say it's good for bass-heavy music, but I found the sound generally thin. This retails for about half the price of the H/K, but sounds like it should be 1/3 the price. I returned and bought Ultimate Ears MegaBoom for similar price. Much happier with that speaker. Both are portable, but UE MegaBoom advertises it is drop/water proof (within limits). I is a bit funkier to look at, but sounds much richer. Both distort at highest volume levels, but the BeatsPill wasn't able to get as loud period, and started distortion at a lower volume level.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag - PRE-OWNED
It is 1715. Pirates rule the Caribbean and have established a lawless pirate republic. Among these outlaws is a fearsome young captain named Edward Kenway. His exploits earn the respect of pirate legends like Blackbeard, but draw him into an ancient war that may destroy everything the pirates have built.
Ships make the Game

Bought this long after its release to fill a lull when I got bored waiting for the newest versions of my normal games. General game play is what I expect, but I LOVE the times when I get to sail around and battle other ships. That is a unique experience every time. I've played Rouge, and prefer that version slightly, but this fits the bill when I want AI combat adventure and have tired of 1st person shooters for a while.

Sony - DualShock 4 Wireless Controller for PlayStation 4 - Urban Camouflage
When the success of your next quest hangs in the balance, or only one more hairpin turn stands between you and first place. When the clock is running out and your team must defend that flag at all costs, or the next combo attack could either be your greatest or your last. When the on-screen action is intense, nothing matters more to the success of your game than the relationship you have with the controller in your hands. The DualShock family of controllers has always brought you innovative features and precise control. The DualShock 4 is no different and brings an exciting array of additional features that are designed to usher your gaming experience into the next generation. With these additions, the DualShock 4 Controller becomes an extension of your brain, turning every move of your fingers into an accurate performance in the game — and in your hands, accurate performance can only mean victory.How gamers use a controller is being redefined right before our very eyes as the next generation of consoles also redefines many other aspects of gaming. The DualShock 4 controller is equipped with a multitouch touch pad on the face of the controller, opening up a new world of gameplay. The integrated light bar generates a rainbow of colors and works with your favorite games to enable innovative gaming experiences. The DualShock 4's share button lets you upload screenshots and video of epic gaming moments or live-stream sessions with your pals — with the press of a button. Besides all of the new innovations, the DualShock 4 controller improves features from past controllers, such as the feel, shape and sensitivity of the dual analog sticks and trigger buttons for enhanced control and a built-in speaker and stereo headset jack for flexible audio options. The future of gaming is now, and the features of this controller live up to the hype.

Not sure why, but to me this feels better to play with than the controller that was in the box. I bought it so I'd always have a fully charged controller, but this has become by go-to and the original is my backup.

Works well. I bought some rechargeable batteries afterward b/c I forget to turn off the mouse and keyboard after using. Love how much cleaner my desk looks. Use is smooth. No delay between typing and seeing the letters on my screen. Comfortable setup that looks much better than wires.

I'm not a coffee drinker, but I like Chai, and this is my favorite of all the K-cups I've tried. I add some milk after brewing to cool it down and get a touch richer cup.

how much would it cost to install this in a 2016 jeep wrangler. Also does it include a rear camera?
You Jane to buy camera separate. Radio install is about 90 min, and camera is about 90 more. And that's for Best Buys install. I started trying to install the radio myself and after an hour-and-a-half realized I was in way over my head and only succeeded in disassembling my stock setup in my truck

Will this work with a 2006 F350 Super Duty? Also how do I purchase installation?
You have to also purchase the appropriate trim kit for your car and wiring adapter. You buy install through Geek Squad. Geek Squad can pull up all the parts you need if you call in / go in to automotive and ask. Several of three parts in my car were only sold in the install bay. They had them in store, but not on the floor. Ultimately however they didn't have one element on hand, so they told me what I needed, I ordered online for onsite pickup, and dropped my truck off for the install when it all had arrived--which I paid for separately.

Can phone calls be answered and made with this product when connected to an Android phone?
Yes. You have to pair your phone via Bluetooth. It supports up to two phones at once, though so far I have only tried it with one. You can only pair your phone with one device at a time. If you have a headset, you will have to turn off the headset in order to pair with the radio and converse with it while you drive. (You also have to hook up the included microphone.)

Yes. It does have a dedicated calculator button at the top right of the keyboard. It actually has several quick-access buttons across the top. I've been very pleased with mine.
