EZ to install. Took awhile to,find wireless network but finally did after a couple tries. Simple setup. Really like the Auto Learn feature. House is heated to the temp or cooled to the temp ( depending on season) when we get up in the morning after setting temp a few times upon getting up and started for the day. Furnace seems to run a lot less since replacing the older Yo-Yo style thermostat. Love setting temp or checking the temperature via my smartphone or iPad. Also tells you when you will save the most energy when you set a temp and the green leaf displays. Cool looking thermostat and will pay for itself after a few years. Also learns when you are home and away. After a few weeks you never have to actually touch the thermostat.

What's great about it: Great battery life. Camera, Apps
What's not so great: Cannot think of any
I purchased this phone around a week ago. Excellent battery life. Camera is fantastic for a phone. If you own a iPod touch its very ez to use. Just like the Touch only with a phone. This is my first cell phone purchase since I owned a NEXTEL years ago. Calling area coverage is very good. I haven't lost a signal as of this writing. Very fast Internet connectivity and usage. I purchased the Otter Defender case. I'm a Cement Mixer driver and it protects the phone great. I'm very happy with both purchases.

What's great about it: Great power, rinsing recharging glass
What's not so great: Price kind of high but worth it
I have owned a different brand powered toothbrush for around 8 years. This DiamondClean is a lot better. It is actually fun to brush your teeth with this brush. I have owned this Philips for a few weeks now and honestly cannot think of any disappointments with this toothbrush. It is quiter, more power and gets my teeth whiter than my other brand name power toothbrush. I even purchased a DiamondClean for my wife also who loves her Philips too. My Son got my replaced toothbrush but I did put on a new brush for him. If you want teeth that feels super clean get this DiamonClean.

What's great about it: Ez to redeem code
Purchased when it was 20% off. Received confirmation email within a minute and then code a minute after that. In my email I touched the code using my ipad2 I was going to copy the # and paste but when I touched the code it went straight to iTunes. All I had to do was password for iTunes. Super simple.

What's great about it: Excellent radar detector with lots of options
I have the special edition 9500IX the pink/white. The last radar detector I owned was a Escort 7500. This so far has been great. GPS is a excellent feature and you can mark where there are speed traps and camera lights. Once you mark these locations you can download on your computer and sync with other users marked locations so you are always up to date. This detector also has the new "POP" feature where a law enforcement officer just pulls a trigger on the radar gun and the Escort will catch that. Of course law enforcement is not suppose to issue tickets when just using pop radar, but do you trust them, I don't. When a alarm does go off it shows your speed @ that time on the display. When you do hook up to the computer you can also pick and choose what features you want on your detector and it has a default setting also. I have used this detector for around a week and so far gives me plenty of time to slow down when a alarm goes,off. And with the GPS feature if the detector notices a false alarm 3 times in the same place it will automatically delete that false alarm so it will not go off again.

how much is a gold membership?

Is it cheap? o_O at least, what's the best buy?
If you buy certain games they include a free subscrition for x-box live for a month and it is usually a gold membership. I have two accounts one for me and one for my son. It is around 40 dollars a year if I remember right and I think it is worth it. You can download demos of the games and play them before you buy. Very expansive network of things to do

X-box 360 or PS3 which and why

Have not tried a PS3 but have a Elite and Pro for my boy. I use my elite to stream music, pictures, movies from my computer to my tv which is pretty neat. Also they just did a update for x-box live which improved everything a lot. I enjoy all the games you can purchase and the x-box live experience is awesome. Hope this helps.

What should i buy, a Xbox or a Xbox elite?

I purchased a Elite. The reason at that time the other consoles did not have hdmi cable hookup and also did not have a 120 gb memory. Now I believe most of the 360's have hdmi hook up. And you can also buy a 120 gb for memory now as a accessory.
