Mirror the screen of your Apple® iPad®, or iPhone® onto a compatible display with this MD098ZM/A digital A/V adapter that connects to your device's dock connector for quality audio and image transfer (HDMI cable required, not included).
Posted by: Tyler
I bought this adapter for the sole purpose to be able to take the iPhone screen and put it on tv -- so I could burn through cell phone data by streaming videos and watch on tv. It appears that the device does not support using a popular video streaming service to display on an iPhone screen and simultaneously display via hdmi. Instead, the HDMI just goes dark / blank and the streaming app displays video on the phone. It is convenient to now have the ability to display my phone onto tv for things other than video, but I question if I'll ever use it. Bottom line, if you're really just trying to create some innovative way to burn through unused data on a cell phone data plan, consider just reducing the data bucket size of the plan.

This HP 27vx monitor features a large 27" HD display with fast response times and a stunning 8,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, so your Web pages, movies and games pop with bright, detailed visuals. HDMI input lets you connect a variety of HD devices.

What a great deal from Best Buy! This monitor has a super sharp image, and inputs for all three connection types: VGA, DVI, and HDMI. The power supply block has a reasonably long cord that allows the power block to be placed on the floor without putting strain on the cord, unlike some where the cord is so short it kind of dangles off the floor suspended in mid air. This monitor has touch sensitive control buttons, which are kind of different to get used to - unlike other monitors where actual buttons exist. Overall, a fantastic monitor and at a price that is unbelievable for a 27" monitor.

Mac mini now has fourth-generation Intel Core processors, increased graphics performance, and ultrafast 802.11ac wireless networking. It also features two Thunderbolt 2 ports, great built-in apps, and OS X Yosemite. And it's still the world's most power-efficient desktop.

All I can say is why did it take me so many years to switch over to Macintosh? After enduring incessant Windows 10 updates and the regular frustration associated with dealing with Windows, I decided there must be something better out there. I bought this Mac out of frustration with Windows and let me tell you all my headaches are gone. Finally, an operating system, that unlike Windows, doesn't freeze up while randomly starting to install updates which brings ones productivity to a standstill -- The Macintosh operating system works and updates occur on your schedule. I will never buy another Windows machine again - Mac is awesome. And at this price point there is no reason why anyone should have to endure Windows!

Does not appear to work with Mac Mini
on January 26, 2016
Posted by: Tyler
I bought this to convert the hdmi output on a Mac Mini to VGA. This did not appear to work. Having tried three different monitors, the device did not work, while the hdmi output when connecting the Mac Mini directly to a tv did work. Lesson Learned - a Mini Display Port connector is the same thing as a Thunderbolt port in Mac speak ... So the apple mini display port to vga connector is compatible with a Mac mini that has Thunderbolt ports. Who knew? As for this belkin adapter, Best Buy was awesome in allowing me to return it in exchange for what I should have bought in the first place.

First, this is a great flip phone... Unless you would like to dial a phone number. After just about three weeks, the number "2" quit working. Now to dial or text anything that involves pressing the "2" key, I have to press quite firmly... Meaning I frequently end up having to backspace an entire entry and start over. I gave it three stars instead of a single star because other than the critical failure of the "2" key everything else about the phone works great. And as cheap as this phone is, I can just buy a new one every 3 to 4 weeks! I own an iPhone as my primary cell phone but use this as a spare, but why can't they make a good old flip phone these days?

Can you add more memory
Good question! The specifications suggest that the memory is upgradable to 4 GB. I tried to upgrade it and upon taking the laptop apart, the memory appears to be integrated into the motherboard. I was not able to successfully upgrade the memory. Now, I must pay a restocking fee to return the memory as the specific DDR3L memory I bought for this machine is of no use to me.
