What's great about it: Worked great...
What's not so great: Until I reset it.
This router worked awesome. But a couple of glitches coupled with my short temper ended the life of this bad boy. Hand meets router. Router meets floor. I'm 1000% percent sure if I just waited till my GF got home, she would have fixed it. But this did work fine. The speed was awesome. I've since upgraded to an AC router. But this was best N+ router I had used.

What's great about it: Price, compact size
What's not so great: Range
RangeMax really had me. I also saw that about 2,500 people gave it 4 0r more stars. But the reception was terrible. I'm in a small apartment. I upgraded and got the Linksys AC 1200. Works like a dream. If you have multiple devices (my family uses 10+) and do not want a slow conection, spend extra money and get a better router.

What's great about it: Not much.
What's not so great: Cable is a bit too long.
Just your basic earbuds. Nothing bad or good about these. I love the colors scheme, the flat cable. They just sound exactly like the last Smokin' Buds, they are comparable to the Merge. Very average.

New Super Mario Bros. 2 Standard Edition - Nintendo 3DS
Dive right back into the Mushroom Kingdom for another classic gameplay experience with everyone's favorite characters, Mario and Luigi. Of course, Princess Peach has been kidnapped yet again by the malevolent Bowser, but the bros. have a new and gilded objective to complete: collect as many gold coins as humanly possible. Mushroom Kingdom glows with the light of mountains, caverns and even characters made of gold, and Mario will not rest until Peach is safe and the gold is his.You can still count on the action-packed fun that the Super Mario bros. franchise always brings to the table, but this time, with added golden opportunities like turning enemies into golden versions of themselves and a gold flower that gives Mario the ability to turn almost anything in his path into gold. This game keeps a running tally of every gold coin you've collected across all the levels so you can monitor your progress. Team up with a friend who can play as Luigi in the new two-player mode that allows you to use wireless Internet to tackle the adventure. Play in Coin Rush mode to see how many coins you can collect across three levels, and then challenge your friends to beat your record with StreetPass. No matter how you play, you'll soon be catching gold coin fever and the only cure is to grab your 3DS and play more New Super Mario Bros. 2.
Pretty difficult for a child.

What's great about it: It's Mario.
What's not so great: It's pretty hard.
I'm 34 and I had trouble completing the game. My niece could never finish the game and she is 10. Besides that, the game is great. I am an 80's baby, so Mario is my favorite. The Mario series has gotten so much better. And on the 3DS, it's even better than ever.

What's great about it: Everything.
What's not so great: No backlit keyboard, but that is being picky.
Amazing notebook. Only 3.3 pounds. Perfect for traveling. No backlit keyboard, but that is not a big deal. Windows 8 was very easy to get used to and I'm not a software guru by any stretch of the imagination. This computer is very nice & I'm super happy with my purchase. I'm not big on Sony products, but this device is awesome.

What's great about it: It's not an Android phone.
What's not so great: Price.
I mean, what is there to write? Apple iPhone blows everything away. You can waste your time and get the all-plastic bodied Galaxy S4 or get the HTC One and re-purchase all of the apps that you already own on the iOS software. It just does not make sense to get any other phone. It's the iPhone 5 or nothing.

What's great about it: Sounds, looks, bass, mids, highs, trebles.
What's not so great: Short cable, some leakage.
I love the looks of these in-ears. The bass is pounding, thumpy. It handles most genres very well. I got these for $50 after I did a price match from Amazon.com. I would have given these 5 stars,but they do leak a bit and the cable is shorter than most in-ears. I do reviews on headphones for free, so I'm very honest and sometimes hyper-critical. But I loved these and I'm not easy to please. Check out my full review @ http://youtu.be/fFSaWLfsasU or do a search for AKG Q350 Review.

What's not so great: Not retina display, no flash on camera.
Everything that you wanted in an Apple iPad, but much smaller & lighter. Just a fine piece of hardware. No flash on camera or retina display. But the camera works great and the screen quality is superb. Do not cheap out & get a Kindle or Nook. Get the real thing: an Apple iPad.

What's great about it: Battery-life, weight, looks, speed, Windows 8
What's not so great: The camera, speakers.
This computer is so lightweight, so portable [3.5 lbs]. Battery life is an amazing 5.5 hours [power-saver mode]. Windows 8 was very easy to use. It does not get hot while on your lap & it's very quiet. It's perfect for surfing the web, streaming movies, doing school work. The camera is average. Only 2 USB ports, but one is a USB 3.0 port. The display is beautiful. The all-aluminum body makes this ultrabook an eye-catcher. The speakers are on the bottom, which tends to muffle the sounds. But everything else is great. Not good for gaming. The computer is all silver, not the product photo. Check out my full review @ Sony Vaio SVT13122CXS Review.

What's great about it: Price.
What's not so great: Uneven cooking on outer areas.
Very affordable skillet. It gets the job done for a single person. Think burgers, grilled cheeses, pancakes. Nothing intricate or gourmet, as the ad claims. It will satisfy, but it will not 'wow' you. But what can you expect for this price? I got it and I'm pleased. Check my full review out @ http://youtu.be/1elvAB_-imU.

Is this a cost effective method of connecting my elderly parent's home to the internet? I am currently with AT&T and can add it to my current bill. They would use it for security, TV, and maybe a kindle?
This would be perfect for them.
