Purchased this for 91 year old mother who has macular degeneration and cannot see clock dial or telephone pad. Set her up with Gmail account then added her contacts. now she can say "ok Google call Robert" and it will dial her contact. If there were two Roberts it would ask which one, which would confuse her, so didn't do that. You can name contact anything. I made one called help with the phone number of front desk where she lives.
I tried to use Amazon echo and it will dial a number but not by saying contact name. You have to give it a number unless the other person also has echo device

So far I have only used this for a few pictures. I used the automatic function to improve some images. Seems to do a good job.
I tried a function of removing power pole and lines from image. I am not sure I did it correctly. I hate to say this but I probably need to read instructions to get better at product. As with any product with this many features, practice.

This seems to work pretty well. There are several backup options so that you can customize the backup, or you can select a default scheme and get the whole pc backed up.
I have not had to do a restore, so that would be the ultimate test.

This is another standard Kindle color screen product that replaced our original Kindle 7". This one is much faster and has more access to apps, although they are all through the kindle store, not android app store. I couldn't for example use my Mcafee anti-virus. I had to use the one that Amazon approved. Over all, a very good upgrade.

This is the second Kitchen Aid mixer we purchased from Best Buy. One is in our cabin in New Mexico and the other is in our place in Texas.
We have not had a chance to use the one in Texas but it should be as good as the one other one, which is very good.

Help! Since I wear hearing aids, I love using my 2 Insignia speakers. HOWEVER, when we Skype with grandchildren, if I plug them in, they cannot hear OUR voices. (no sound) Any ideas??? Thanks.

Make sure you are plugging then into the speaker port and not the microphone port.
