This camera is waterproof, shock resistant and mountable. I have been watching these for a while and now the price is right if you don't have to have the latest model. I highly recommend, keep in mind that these don't come with any memory.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Far Cry 3 - PlayStation 3
Far Cry 3 is an open world first-person shooter set on an island unlike any other. A place where heavily armed warlords traffic in slaves. Where outsiders are hunted for ransom. And as you embark on a desperate quest to rescue your friends, you realize that the only way to escape this darkness — is to embrace it.
Excellent gameplay, for a great price

This is an adult game but the game play is addictive for the person mature enough to handle the violence. The story is less linear than the previous entrants in the series. I would recommend this to anyone now that the price has dropped.
This product has... Like to replay, Excessive violence

What's great about it: eary to pick up and play
What's not so great: could use more varied gameplay
This game is a very approchable platformer. It will hold the attention of a 4 or 5 year old or a senior citizen. It is similar to little big planet but lacks the create feature. Now it is very affordable and it is hard to pass up.
This product has... Family friendly, Appropriate for young kids

What's great about it: slim, convenient
What's not so great: I have doubts about long term durability
If you have a surface you know this is marked as separate buy from the surface. That said we all wished it came with it but it is worth the purchase. The keyboard is powered by the surface so that it one less battery to worry about. It also serves as a screen cover when the device is not in use.
That said if you are typing term papers or a lot you might be happier with a type cover, a Bluetooth keyboard or a USB keyboard (if you use it at home). The touch takes some getting used but once you are used to it, it works fine.

What's great about it: cheaper than from Sony direct
What's not so great: should you really have to pay for this?
I usually just get things through the Playstation store, BB marked this down $20 so it made sense to get it here. You can stock up also. Each code you put in extends your plus membership 12 months.

What's not so great: should you really have to pay for this?
If you have upgraded to PS4 you know that Plus is more essential than it was on the PS3. It is required to play online. BB marked this down during the holiday season, I got two. A savings on $20 per year and you get reward zone points for this (as opposed to buying from sony)

What's great about it: recently reduced prices
What's not so great: charger hard to connect, battery life not great
I had outgrown my iPad and its limitations (more a play device). With the introduction of the surface 2 the original version got much cheaper. I decided to purchase the original surface pro. I have been pleased. It is truly a laptop replacement. I am glad I resisted the urge to purchase the RT which is better than the iPad but stops short of being a laptop replacement.
I find it difficult sometimes to line up the charger and the battery life for this model is about 4-5 hours in application. Much short of the ipad. All in all I am very pleased with this device.
This product is... responsive touch screen, easy to set up, lightning fast, A nice compact size, Sharp graphics

What's great about it: well made
What's not so great: not the best viewing angles
Nice portfolio case, one selling point for belkin used to be their warranty. This case only has a year which is more than the rest of the competition but not what belkin products used to carry. The case is solid and well made. It is kinda bulky and adds a lot of thickness to the ipad.

Can we use french (AZERTY) keyboard on this US version of the surface?
I would like to buy this Surface Pro here in US but I'm used to french keyboard (AZERTY) instead of QWERTY. I would like to buy a keybord type cover in France and I was wondering if it will work on my US Surface pro
This should not be a problem.

Is the pictured keyboard included in the advertised price?
Some of the pictures on your site show the keyboard and pen along with the Surface Pro 128GB. Is it included, or do I have to purchase it separately?
Of course not, this is an expensive add on accessory.

Is the tablet dual voltage?
I will be traveling to Korea and need to know if this tablet is dual voltage so I do not need a voltage converter, just a plug adapter
the brick can handle voltage up to 220V you would need an adapter.
