For those that feeeeeeeeeeeeel I am too much of a schmoozer in my reviews, here's this.
This device is not all that great. It needs constant babysitting and rebooting. Even the previous version I had was slightly better. It goes down frequently and HARD.
And this is why I ALWAYS purchase a BB protection/replacement plan. If the Linksys Folks would care to proffer their thoughts on my "when it works, it works only fair but when it doesn't work that is pretty much half the time so I am grateful even for when it does work wireless router".
I am BB Elite Plus and I gave this device past my 45 day return window to give it a chance. Never again because now I would have to use my Extended Warranty to replace it and I would NOT replace it with the same model.
Unless Linksys Folks can explain what they think might be going on with it. It just drops out. Computers, wireless speakers, you name it. My Heos speaker system constantly loses communication and when the router comes back online I have to manually set them ALL UP AGAIN via Cat5 cable. This upsets me no end.
Trust me. I know what I'm doin' when I'm reviewin'.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

...It's a MicroSD memory card with more storage capacity than the computer that took us (the U.S.!) to the Moon in 1969!
With tax it was about $21 on sale. Sooooo...I bought two of them. And they both just flat out work.
I do recommendo-a-mundo these cards!

And as is always the case with me, I do NOT purchase junque for either family or friends. This was purchased to replace an ancient HP laptop that would take several minutes to boot up and even more to logon and check email.
It is a Chromebook.
It is quite speedy not only compared to her old laptop but to other tablets I have purchased over the last few years.
My friend is soooooooooooooooo happy with her Chromebook! She likes the speed, the ability to add storage via a MicroSD (I have alreadyinstalled a 64 gig card for her!) and the picture and sound are worlds ahead of her old HP.

She can watch a film on it with ease. She can listen to her Pandora station on it too. With ease!
So then...Do I recommend this little device? As Ralph Malph and Pottsie Weber might say, "Yowsah! Yowsah! Yowsah!"
Yup. I do.

...More than adequate! I purchased this for my daughter and her excellent husband. I do NOT buy junque for either friends or family. Apple makes a quality product and this particular MacBook Pro is nothing but a quality piece of equipment.
Is it FAST? Yup!
Is it beautifully made? Yupp!
Is the screen superb-a-mundo excellente'? Yuppers!

Look, I am not here to lie to you just to make myself out to be something other than a satisfied BB & fApple customer. My daughter and her husband reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally like their new PowerBook! Like, not "love". Only a fool pretends to love something as inanimate as an inanimate device.
Buy one and I seriously doubt you will be disappointed. I am not. Again, I do NOT buy junque. Neither should you.

We bought for use in our home gym in the garage. The extra benefit is our 16 year old Labratard pooch reeeeeally likes the breeze this thing makes. He lays in front of it and snoozes like he was a puppy again.
So then, it's great for working out and it's even better for a seasoned citizen pooch! Do I recommend it?
YES! And highly so.

And it works as advertised. I use to count my steps. I use it to count my calories burned. I use it to check my blood pressure. I use it to listen to my Pandora stations. I use it mostly for telling time!
I use it in the real world. And so will you. When you get right down to it and wrist watch is a very handy device and if it's an Apple Watch then it is handy and more. I bought the 40 mm version and while I have a 7.5" wrist, the watch looks fine on me.
I have a handicap and tend to fall. A lot. So I got this watch from Apple as my kids said I could set it up so that if I know myself out (again!) it will call for help. So far I have NOT tested that aspect of it but it is an otherwise fine timepiece and one I recommend solely on the basis that it keeps accurate time, is silent while doing so and when silence is neither wanted or needed, it can play my Pandora stations!
I have tried the EKG doohickey a few times and each time i said I was fine. I knew that... ;-) If you want a "smart" watch you could do far worse than a new fApple watch! I like mine very much! Highly recommended? You betcha!

This Roomba is El Fantasitco! Super-A-Mundo! Excellente'! It's a modern version of the Flintstone's Mammoth-Vacuum! It looks cool and it works GREAT!
I really like it. Even better, my wife likes it too. It has mapped our downstairs and can clean the whole area or just the ones you choose, Living Room. Family Room. Kitchen. Entry Way. You choose and it just does it. Nigh on flawlessly too.
Oh it may get stuck on something but so far that has only happened once out of over 39 cleaning jobs (we have furry shedding pooches!).
It took a few days to map the area but now it is sooo easy to use. I have not yet set up an automatic cleaning schedule but will do so soon. I cannot recommend this model enough! It really is that good. I can be at work and tell it to start cleaning and it does! How sweeeet is that! Hey! My older Roomba does that too! Sweeeeeeeeeeet!
This Roomba is the bestest one yet and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND it, especially so to people like myself, seasoned citizens with a slight physical handicap. It makes a clean home a clean breeze.

Samsung - Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G 512GB (Unlocked)
Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G is crafted so you don’t need to choose between video and photo. With a single tap, you can pull super-clear stills straight from high-resolution 8K video. Or if you’re looking to capture stunning photos, the 108MP camera feels like you’ve brought your own professional studio with you. Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G, designed to be epic in every way.
Does Samsung in general and this model in particular work well with Android Auto? My Motorola Z3 Play is awful in this regard and I am thinking of returning to Apple because of that. Thanks!

Motorola - Edge 256GB (Unlocked) 2021 - Nebula Blue
The Motorola edge is the perfect combination of a high-quality 6.8” Max Vision display that lets you watch shows on the largest display in its class. The insanely fast 144Hz refresh rate looks super smooth. Plus, true-to-life colors with improved brightness and contrast.
Does this work with Android Auto or not? The reason i ask is that I have a Motorla Z3 Play that doesn't play well with Android Auto at ALL. I had an iPhone and may go back but want to know about this model and Android Auto. Thanks!

What is the Ethernet port's maximum BPS achievable.
I have found it to be fast enough for 4K films via Disney +, Amazon and MAX. My wireless hardwired speeds regularly exceeed 700+ MPS and wired is up to 1 Gig +.
There is no buffering of film or music as I sometimes use the TV for Atmos Encoded music.

Is this the best tv for bright rooms?
This TV is so far excellent in bright rooms, natural or electric light matters not! Overall this is the nicest TV I have owned!
My only problem is very dark scenes that are CG generated as they appear blotchy or blocked (not from digital latency!).
An example is that I use a YouTube video of a thunderstorm over the ocean and the clouds are horribly rendered. This never happened on my 6.5 year old Samsung curved TV.
If Hisense can lend me a hand I would very much appreciate it!
But yes(!) so far in a bright room this TV shines!

I have a Xm subscription and want to buy this kit to put on my touring motorcycle and use my existing subscription. Has anyone put this kit on a bike? I have a usb plug in.
I used it on my 2006 GL1800. I put the unit and the car power adaptor in the right fairing pocket, and plugged the unit's Aux out to the Aux in that is in that fairing pocket.
I then routed the antenna out of the fairing pocket via a small channel I made in the pocket so the wire would not be pinched, and the cable was then routed under and along the lip of the saddle to the back and was placed on the rear speaker via double-sided Velcro. It worked great for years and many miles.
Hope this helps.

Can I use this in my house and does it come with me everything I need to set it up?
I have used mine this way for years. I use the SirisXM SXSD2 Portable Dock and route the antenna to where it car "see" the satellite.
The Dock has everything you need and runs on AC or D Cell batteries (you can take it outdoors).
I hope this helps!
