The smaller denomination iTunes cards are great gifts that the recipient can choose how to use them at the iTunes store - in my case in it was included with a larger denomination gift card.

What's great about it: no phone call to ISP required required, functions with a hitch
Though I was informed by a store associate that I would possibly have to call Comcast, once I set-up and connected this router/modem, the Comcast website appeared on my iMac screen, asked for my login, and walked me through. I then installed the suppled disc to find the password for the wireless set-up for a second computer and everything has worked very well, without any problem. Having just one device rather than separate modem and router frees up space on my desk.

What's great about it: easy to use, rugged construction
I bought this as a gift: after taking hundreds of full frame photos of friends who visited us from Argentina, I was able to fit many 36 megapixel photos (with space to spare) on this PNY USB flash drive so. Our friends returned home with all the photos; upon arrival family /fiends could view the original photo files of their vacation, without any reduced resolution. I have bought 9 of these PNY flash drives (8,16, 32 megabytes) over the last few years - this design is easy to use and has the most durable construction - one is permanently attached to my computer.

What's not so great: nothing
I bought this for our guests - they were surprised with the quality and the low price for such a well made laptop case - why buy a "designer label product" when a good case, with ample compartments, is available for a reasonable price?

These are the flash drives I keep for myself - I have 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB
and have been using them for the last three years without a problem. They are big enough for easy handling and hold up well to constant use.

This was purchased as a gift to be used for a Canon G15 compact camera - reasonably stiff shell, low profile contour affords more protection than a soft pouch for a very reasonable price yet does not look cheap.

Canon - Speedlite 270EX II External Flash
Enhance the creative power of your digital camera with this external flash that features a wireless slave function and vertical bounce capability. The ultralight, compact design makes it an accessory that's easy to add to your camera bag.
bargain for the money

What's great about it: size, price, works well
What's not so great: Only do horizontal bounce flash
This was purchased for a Canon 5Dmkii, a camera body that has not flash. The 270EX ii is small, lightweight, 2 AA battery strobe that doubles as a portable unit or as a second flash, slave flash - for a small price. The only drawback is that although the flash can be bent upward to "bounce", like all brand small flashes, it does not swivel; only horizontal shots can be illuminated by bouncing off a ceiling, but not for vertical shots like the 430EX, etc.

I am planning to buy the SBG6580 modemnto replace the SBG860A that I am currently renting from TWC. How reliable is the SBG6580 modem? Should the SBG6580 increase my internet speed?
We bought (saved money by not renting) an SBG6580 a few years ago, during which time it has worked with no problem that could be attributed to the modem: with one computer wired and one wi-fi. The one wi-fi issue was due to the computer chronically failing to retain wi-fi settings; I eventually opted for a wired connection. Regarding wi-fi: we have had guests from Aruba, Colombia, and Argentina who have used this modem with smart phones to keep in touch with family members and never had a problem. Where we live internet speed (Comcast) gets slow on holiday weekends, etc. - friends from other parts of town report complain slower speeds at those times si again, I cannot blame the modem. Our Apple TV is also connected to this modem yet Netflix (that get us HD) never slows down, even when internet is crawling and websites fail to open.

Nikon AF-S Micro Nikkor 60mm f/2.8G ED Macro Lens: Turn every photo into a work of art with the Nikon 60mm macro lens.

Advanced lens coatings and high-quality glass provide excellent clarity for handheld shots, and the large aperture permits low-light shooting without the need for a flash.
Is this lense compatible with the Nikon D5000 body?
Yes and the Nikon 60mm G doubles as a nice portrait lens mounted on DX or crop cameras even though it is designed as a close-uplens.
