Jawbone - UP3 Activity Tracker + Heart Rate - Black
Jawbone UP3 Activity Tracker: With plenty of innovative features, the Jawbone UP3 provides you with a full picture of your health. Advanced sensors measure your resting heart rate, respiration rate, sleep stages and more, and workouts are automatically logged making it easier to track and measure your activity throughout the day.
Overall satisfied
Customer Rating
4.0
The Up3 has a decent battery life (just under one week) and seems durable enough (my work is very abusive to anything worn on my hands and arms).
Putting on and removing the band took some practice, but I never found it particularly difficult. I did find the clasp would slip - not come undone, but loosen - to where the band would slide up and down my wrist; a little pinch with a pair of pliers and this is no longer a problem.
On to the app.
I like that the band tracks my sleep automatically (a function I always forgot to turn on with my Ftbit). I also like that it pays attention to my increased activity and will remind me to log workouts.
As food logging goes, I personally think Jawbone has done a better job than other fitness trackers and their associated apps, but would still recommend an external app. Jawbone syncs with several, and not just food trackers but fitness and lifestyle apps, as well.
The app lets you look at trends in your logs (how much sleep, how many steps, calories burned, etc.). It also makes suggestions based on your activity, and lets you rate those suggestions so it can learn more about you.
My only complaint is that the app seems to break after every update. The developers are very quick to fix it (typically within 24 hours), but it still reduces the band to little more than a fashion accessory for that duration. If app failure wasn't so common, I'd give it 5 stars.

Decent sound and reception range. Controls are simple and convenient. The headphones do put some pressure on the ears, but this only became uncomfortable when I was wearing earrings. Overall, I'm very satisfied with this product.

I mostly wanted a laptop for checking emails and doing spreadsheets for work. It's nice and compact, and runs well.

Take your essentials on the go with this Solo Urban UBN310-10 briefcase that easily converts into a backpack for flexible use and features a padded compartment designed to protect most laptops with up to a 15.6" display.
Just What I Was Looking For
Customer Rating
5.0
What's great about it: Multiple carry options
What's not so great: Perhaps a little spendy
Simplicity and versatility.
I hate bags that have too many pockets and slots. This one has just the right amount. Main compartment with padded sleeves for both laptop and tablet, and enough room for a couple books or thin binders. Two outer compartments: one small with a secondary pocket, and the other larger with a few slots for cards and pens.
The bag is designed so it can be carried as a briefcase, messenger, or backpack; though I prefer using the bag as a sling pack by attaching the messenger strap crosswise.
While its primary uses are personal, the design is nice enough that I have no issues using it for work when I need to.
Thus far, the bag has proven very sturdy, carrying as much as forty pounds without breaking (though this was only for the few minutes between the house and the car and then another short walk from the car to the office).
I can see where the price might be an issue for some people. There are other bags with more capacity, or organization, or durability, or more pleasing aesthetics. I just happen to find this bag has the right amounts of all those things for my needs, so I had no issues with dishing out $50 for it.

What's great about it: Integrates stories that were irritatingly only mentioned in the book
What's not so great: Waiting for the next movie to see how they consolidate all the changes
I love how the movies are taking several related storylines from different books and combining them to provide one singular comprehensive story. This does result in some drastic changes from the books, and I can understand how some people won't approve; particularly the addition of a completely new character and how that role seems to detract from the main plot.
Overall, I find it to be an excellent retelling of a classic tale.

I broke my original Fitbit wristband and needed a replacement. These were what was available without going online. They do the job they're supposed to, which is hold my Fitbit to my wrist. I don't care for the colors, but that's just a personal preference.

What's great about it: Standard keyboard layout
What's not so great: Cramped use
I bought this to use with my Nook HD+; I returned it because it wouldn't connect, but it wasn't the keyboard's fault. It actually worked great with my phone (Galaxy SIII).
It's compact and sturdy, making it very portable. It has a standard keyboard layout instead of the "tiled" layout some compact keyboards have, which makes it easier to use because you don't have to relearn to type. However, it's so compact that I felt cramped using it. Someone with larger hands might have problems.

What's great about it: Very compact
What's not so great: Very compact
I've always found SanDisk to be a solid brand when it comes to quality. I bought this on sale for $25, and it's well worth it.
It's simple plug-n-play. I used it for an emergency boot repair disc, and it worked great. Also, my laptop has problems with the initial downloads for Diablo III, so I used this flash drive to copy the files from my desktop and transfer them to my laptop; the files (around 15 GB) transferred quickly and cleanly.
It's very small - about the size of a thumbnail. This is nice because it doesn't stick out and get in the way when it's plugged into my laptop. It also makes it easy to misplace (or maybe I'm just unorganized).
This product has... Reliable, Attractive design/portable, Large capacity/good size
About me... Budget Conscious, Need a simple backup solution

Nice graphics. Good voice acting. The game switches between a third person point and click, and first person action; the controls might be smoother on a PC, but they're not horrible with a controller and the game is still very playable.

Is there an order online and pick up in store option? When does it usually arrive?
I pre-ordered and there was no option for in-store pick-up, but I did receive my phone before the official release of September 15. Perhaps it will become available after release? As for when it might arrive, if it's in stock you can usually order online and pick-up the same day; for items not in stock, my experience has been that it takes about a week to arrive.

What are the dimensions for this keyboard? Is it standard size or tablet size
It's tablet size. About 4 in. x 10 in. (If I'm remembering correctly.) Kind of cramped, but sturdy. Good for portability.
