I replaced a Samsung player when it started to freeze up when watching a blu ray disc after just over 1 year of ownership (just past the warranty period, if course!). I read several reviews and choose this Sony player. It was easy to set up and connect, and has been working very well over the past few months. I am very satisfied with it thus far.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I was looking to upgrade my router and heard a lot of good reviews about the Nighthawk series by Netgear (I've been a satisfied long time user of Netgear products, so it wasn't hard to convince me). I found this combination modem-router which helped to free up some desktop space versus my existing separate modem and router. The installation was very easy, although it did take a phone call to Comcast to make the final connection, since I was replacing a modem too. Overall, very pleased with the performance and value of this combo unit.

I bought this Samsung HDTV after Christmas through an Open Box sale at my local Best Buy. The TV didn't appeared to have been touched, and I saved over $300 in the process. It has a vibrant picture and sets itself up extrememly easily, connecting to the various devices and internet quickly. Best A/V purchase I have made in a long time!

This refrigerator is an impressive piece of design and engineering. We were looking for a counter depth fridge so as not to take up too much valuable floor space in our kitchen and this one fit the bill. The showcase front door is a very neat feature that allows you to get quick access to your more convenient items (milk, condiments, etc.) without having to open up the naturally heavier full door. This unit has a remarkable amount of storage space that belies its 21.5 cu ft rating -- perfect for a family of four like ours. It fits nicely into a standard 36 inch fridge cabinet and It is extremely quiet - you hardly know it is running most of the time. If I have to pick on one fault (and it is a VERY minor one) is that the door water dispenser sometimes dribbles a small amount of water after removing your cup. The splash tray catches it well so it is just a minor peeve on my part. We got it on sale for $1,800 which made it very competitive with many other brands that had less features in my mind. Great fridge!!

I bought this bag to store my Panasonic V520 compact camcorder. While this bag is way oversized for the size of the camcorder, I also wanted room to store the charger, power cords, and spare battery that goes with it. This bag is just the right size to handle this job, without being too big.

What's great about it: Good story line about the Winter Soldier, great acting (incl Robert Redford), great action sequences.
What's not so great: MInimal extra featurettes (have been spoiled by past Marvel movies that dove further into how the movie was made).
Overall, I love the Marvel universe -- I grew up with the comics in my younger days and like the way that Marvel Studios have intertwined the various pieces of their universe amongst all of the movies since Iron Man 1. Great acting overall by Sam Jackson, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson and Robert Redford. Anthony Mackie makes a great Falcon -- irreverent but extremely loyal to Cap. I'll admit the plot line with Dr. Zola's intelligence capture in 1970's computer equipment was a bit far fetched, but it was fortunately a brief tangent. Overall, a very enteraining and exciting film.

Is clear motion rate the same as hertz?

I am not an expert, but after reading a bit on the internet it appears the Clear Motion rate is a made up number by Samsung to indicate the relative refresh rate of the TV (related to frequency, but not identifcal). I've attached a web link that has some background on it, but generally the higher the Clear Motion rate, the faster the TV updates/refreshes but it is not 1-to-1.
