Purchased this at a discounted price, and bought it for the holster/clip more than the shell (I have a designer case on my phone). Holster is a bit bulky, but it is able to holster phone with a designer case with no problem. My previous Verizon holster/clip & case combo was thinner & could only holster the phone with the included case. If you are willing to have a slightly more bulky clip/holster, this will allow you some customization options for cases.
One con: There is a silver screw/bolt that holds the clip section of the holster together, and this was loose when I opened this product. I tightened this and have not had any problems, but I've taken a star off since I should not have had to do that to begin with. Holster works as expected.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I was using a different, older 2.1 system with my new Smart HDTV when one of the satellite speakers gave way. Although the subwoofer on that system & the remaining satellite still work very well, I decided to upgrade to a whole new system. I had heard that this system was comparable to a Logitech Z2300 system that I also own & LUV to death, so I decided to give this system a try, and it sounds great! I can confidently say that you will not find a system with this kind of power in a 2.1 set-up for this price. It is the last of a disappearing breed of 2.1 systems, so I would not hesitate to grab it while you still can. Your other option would be to invest in a full-fledged entertainment system, which will definitely cost more that this.
If you like your bass to hit hard whenever it hits, this is the perfect system for you. The Logitech system I mentioned above is the only other 2.1 system that carries this kind of thumping bass and overall output power, and they do not appear to make that system anymore (outside of special order perhaps, as far as I can tell). I couldn't have asked for a better system to assimilate into my new entertainment set-up.
Bass is adjustable, and it mixes well with the sound from the satellites. The only drawback is that there are cords galore for this thing (at least in comparison to other 2.1 systems that I've owned). It could be worse I suppose, but they definitely could have streamlined the cording. Also, this system does not have a remote of any kind (corded or otherwise), so unless you can control it through whatever system you hook it up to (which is possible), you will have to manually adjust the volume & bass on the system yourself.

I originally purchased a Sharp UltraHDTV, and after setting it up quickly noticed that there was a huge discrepancy between the quality of that set on hi-end content versus how it handles regular content. I returned that set to get this one, and I have been delighted and excited to use it every time!
Although I typically use an HD cable to connect my laptop to it, I can connect with it wireless too.
The sound settings are not terrible but not the best. I have external speakers with subwoofer connected to it (which I will be upgrading shortly!), so sound is not an issue for me personally. Would recommend external speakers of some kind if you want a full quality experience with the sound. Picture is absolutely great, regardless of what you are watching. Up-converts content seamlessly!

Purchased this to go along with an HDTV purchase (needed this to hook one of my laptops to the TV) and it works splendidly. It comes in different lengths, so make sure you have the appropriate length for your set-up area.

This TV is very good at producing hi-end 4k and HDMI content, however, it does not handle black very well and often seems to be patch grey when it should be black. All non-HDMI content looks somewhat terrible (ghosting, poor upscaling, etc.). Returned it because I was told that this product could upscale basic content as well as handle the premium content. You can absolutely tell it has a 60Hz base refresh rate, so if you plan to watch ANYTHING other than hi-end content, try a TV with at least a 120Hz refresh rate.
In case you are wondering, I ended up being extremely satisfied with a Samsung 46" SMART TV For roughly the same price as this one, and it handles HD content exquisitely + upconverts content seamlessly without sacrificing the deep blacks. (Base refresh rate of 120hz).

Any more available?

Any idea when this will be available online or at the store?
You would probably have to check with your local bestbuy regarding if/when they plan to have more in stock at the store, but as an FYI, I went to purchase this item at my local BestBuy store after checking online and seeing that same-day pick-up was available. When I got to the store, a sales clerk tried to assist me with locating this item, and he could not find it (and proceeded to try to tell me it was not available anymore; This is the second time this has happened to me with a sales clerk at BestBuy). I simply went home and ordered it online for pick-up at the store, and they had it ready for me shortly thereafter (I could have done this at the store and just waited, if I'd had my smart phone with me). My point, check online to see if the item is in stock and able to be picked up from the store. If it is, order it online to make sure that you have no issues with undisplayed inventory at the store.

Is the modem in this router DSL compatible, i.e. With embarq service

My embarq service is over phone line
You may have submitted your question for the wrong product; This is for the AC1600 Dual Band Router, which is strictly a router and does NOT have a modem incorporated.

There is another Netgear product listed as an AC1600, but it is a gateway device (meaning that it has both a modem and router integrated into the device). The other device cost about $200, which is at least $70 more expensive than this item.

For your convenience, Ive included all three AC 1600 items currently sold on bestbuy, so that you can identify your intended item. Please note that one is just a router (this product), while the other two are modem-router combos (one of which, I believe, is what you are asking about).
