The transfer is good but should be better. The musical score and acting is fantastic. I loved it when it came out and love it more at home and in my collection on blu-ray!

The acting is top notch. The story and the developing plot-line grabs you and tugs at all your emotions. The fact that it is a true story and these things happened frequently just rips you to pieces.

FANTASTIC ACTING

Verified Purchase:Yes
The acting is super, those that are over the top do so and does that have to be low keyed do so. All in all the casting and the great acting make this a very wonderful movie. It showcases how families interact and all the dysfunctions that go into a family and how pride stands firm even unto the fall.

COMEDY BUT TOO RAUNCY
on April 19, 2014
Posted by: redderr
from nj
Verified Purchase:Yes
The movie was pure over the top and made what is suppose to be a villain into a lovely screw up. The comedy aspect was good and the acting was good but...
The irony is that this man who stole many people's dignity is left leading a good life with very little long lasting repercussions.
The women are treated like live cattle and the investors like dead cattle, very little is done to bring home the point how they hurt idividulas and whole families.
The movie if not true is good not great but should have been great if they truly present a more true to life picture of the events and not try to go over the top with each vice.

The movie like most Ritchie movie is just so wise cracking and at times full of that same twisted humor. The acting was great and the idea and plot executed very well.
My only issue not with the movie but when I ordered it indicated a digital copy would be included both in the wording and the packaging picture. The packaging was completely different and no digital copy was included as none was indicated on the package sent me.

iPad® Air is 20 percent thinner1 and weighs just one pound, so it feels unbelievably light in your hand. It comes with a 9.7-inch Retina display, the A7 chip with M7 motion coprocessor, ultrafast wireless, powerful apps, and up to 10 hours of battery life.2 And over 475,000 apps in the App Store are just a tap away.3

Good but lack of fingerprint features
on November 18, 2013
Posted by: redderr
from Queens, NY
UPDATE 11182013:
A number of comments seem to take issue with my statement of "not feeling like glass" but that is JUST MY PERSONAL FEELING. Others about the brightness...indeed I do have it cranked all the way up but the brightness is nowhere as bright as what is found on the Samsung Note 10.1 2014 edition, nor the iPad4 and my most recent purchase the Samsung Note 8. All 3 when cranked all the way up are much brighter than the iPad Air.
I will be buying the new Google nexus 7(even with all the GPS and multi-touch issues) for the upcoming holidays but even in the store, that too seems much brighter...I am very dismayed at this lack of brightness from the Air but it is still more than adequate for indoors. I have not tried it outdoors nor will I as this is not my "outdoor" tablet...lol.
I like Apple and the tight integration of their apps and the reason many including myself continue to buy their products. I do feel the price for this latest iteration is them trying to make money at our expense. WHO HERE DOES NOT KNOW IN THEIR HEART THAT APPLE IS TRYING TO GET IN ON THE CHRISTMAS RUSH AND PUT THE AIR AND THE NEW MINI WITHOUT THE FINGERPRINT FEATURES FOUND ON THE NEW IPHONE...COME MARCH MAYBE APRIL, APPLE WILL UPDATE THE IPAD AIR TO INCLUDE THAT FEATURE.
I will continue to buy Apple mostly because their store has apps that are better, with more choices and work extremely well with their devices. I think this product is a 3 1/2 Stars at best and mostly for the size and weight reduction that is very significant. I feel the "glass" is too thin but seems to be durable as I have really been typing a lot on it as well as playing several games that require a lot of tapping. I am very happy with the size reduction but feel the brightness is not up to par with other new tablets or the iPad4.
Recently the Safari browser has been "crashing" a lot over the past week in that when you tap on a hyperlink, the browser will basically disappear off the screen. None of the tabs close but it just disappears and returns you to the home screens. I also am finding the browser will get stuck/freeze for several minutes before resuming. I have several calls in with apple support and they are looking into the issues.
Other issues is the VIDEO app, if you play a video via streaming not downloading and leave it somewhere like the middle or so on, it actually reduces your available memory by the amount you have watched from what I can glean. IT IS LIKE DOWNLOADING THE MOVIE TO THE POINT YOU HAVE WATCHED IT TO EVEN THOUGH YOU SELECTED THE STREAMING LINK. If you do this with several movies, you can basically wipe out your free memory. I find it difficult to clear the buffer and have basically learned to tell the app not to display any movies then to display movies then play the movie but move the slider to the beginning and press stop playing then done. Of these many steps I eventually clear the buffer but I am not sure which of all these steps actually is what does it if any!
Oh lastly, the WI-fi is fantastic.
FINAL RATING IS 3 1/2 STARS...MAYBE 4 IF NOT FOR THE BRIGHTNESS ISSUE.
First I own iPad 2 and 4 and Samsung Note 10.1 2014 edition.
I like...not love...the new iPad Air as it is faster both in operating the software apps and graphic intensive apps. The apps continue to be fantastic for all the pads not just the Air.
Apple did a great job on the weight but FEEL STRONGLY THAT THE NEW SCREEN IS NOT NEARLY AS BRIGHT AS MY iPad 4 NOR DOES IT EVEN FEEL LIKE GLASS.
As I type this review on the Air, the "cheap tapping" feel of this glass leaves me wondering how durable this glass is. It feels thin and makes a tapping sound not found on the more solid glass on my other two iPads.
Oh I am keeping the Air for the faster processors but feel Apple has put out a product whose screen will not be as durable as prior pads.
I can see it flex when I push down on it with minimal effort and have some light distortion when I press down like old type LED TVS.
Apple over prices their products because they can and really did so on this iteration of their iPad. In my estimation the glass feels like plastic and the brightness is much diminished when compared to my iPad 4 and so must have a higher profit margin with all these cost cutting that resulted in a new iPad that for all practically purposes is just faster but not as solidly built as prior pads.
Time will tell on the screen and maybe this is the way all tablets are headed to achieve the weight reduction and thinness. I love the ability to hold the Air in one hand comfortably for much longer than any of my current tablets. I am OK to sacrifice the glass quality as long as the touch screen does not suffer or long term screen reliability.
I wish Apple would splurge and include a 6 foot charging cord...OMG $600 for 32GB and the cord is so short still after all this time...lol.
What's great about it: Lightness, processor speeds
What's not so great: Glass feels cheap and durability questions

This is a major work in progress
on September 23, 2012
Posted by: redderr
from Queens, ny
I use it in...:Large home
I bought this unit about a month ago. Initial install was a breeze till router indicated a firmware update was available. Since then I have spent hours with Netgear tech support going from level 1 to senior level to corporate customer care to level two support.
Overall the speed connections are a improvement over my old Cisco router by about 30 to 50 percent. What I love is the range, I basically get a rock solid connection be it basement, 2nd floor or closed doors.
The Genie software is nice touch but has many on again off again glitches.
The one reason I got the router was to AirPrint. I got it to work prior to firmware update and since then it is pretty much gone. iPad shows printer but will not print. Also worse since IPad went to IOS 6.
Tech 2 support says they are aware of the issues and have no solution. They suggested I try a Netgear forum suggested solution which they acknowledge they did not get to work in their lab. Tech 2 said not sure their technicians will get it to work...wow it is one of the advertised feature. I am outside my 30 day return and very upset.
Excellent connection with very good speeds but marred very much by the software. Omg the use of external HD is extremely slow if you want to stream videos even pictures are slow. Even the ReadyShare printer is problematic to get it to work consistently...lots of unplugging USB and back in.
Netgear tech support is awful with lots of holds, drops and lack of follow up.
What's great about it: Connections and overall speed
What's not so great: Software very buggy; AirPrint Dead

Light weight, great range, and very intuitive.
By redderr from Queens, NY
Simple packaging and very easy and quick setup once you download the software. The pointer is extremely slim and lightweight...just what you need from a presentation pointer.
Being able to charge up in a little over a minute to get 3 hours of use with the included USB C cable is wonderful.
The pointer itself has very simplified interface, you have only three buttons at your disposal: a large "forward" in the middle; a smaller "back" arrow below it; and a third bullseye button that sits at the top of the slender wand.
Customization is what make this pointer so powerful in my opinion. The functionality of these buttons isn't fixed; you customize the actions they execute using the companion app. So, for example, where a quick press on the main button might move you on to the next slide, a longer hold can be set to launch the magnification feature; a raised hand gesture can trigger changes in volume.
A final neat touch is the haptic feedback, you can configure the Spotlight to vibrate at set times, which could be beneficial to pacing your presentation and your overall timing.
It's compatible with most of the presentation software you're likely to encounter including PowerPoint, Google Slides, Prezi and Apple Keynote.
I give it a solid 5 stars but the price needs to come down a bit for most users like myself to justify the premium price.
Number of vibrate times that can be set
April 2, 2017
You can set multiple haptic/vibrate feedback set times, I was able to set mas many as 7...I am not certain as to the limit.

Would give negative star if possible
By JenJon
This has been the absolute worst electronic purchase ever! I am on my 3rd unit having 2 replacements sent to me from linksys as well as my 2nd range extender (the RE7000) that they have replaced as well. Invested 15-20 hours on the phone with foreign, yet pleasant enough, tech workers. I live in a square, 3,300 sf 2-story and cannot get consistent or far enough coverage. When paired with their extender to take advantage of the mumino technology, the internet fails to open at all on multiple devices, causing us to set up the extender under a different name and losing the purpose of why we bought in 1st place. After being refused to exchange into their new Velop product for all the problems, I ordered the Netgear Orbi yesterday and leaving the linksys brand forever ( I have purchased 9 routers from linksys in my lifetime for personal and rental homes ).
Beyond frustrated and out $500...

Great Robo Cleaner at a Good Price
By JBCTECH
I've been using robot vacuums for a few years and am a fan. The Samsung - POWERbot R7040 is my first experience with a next-generation model. There are great improvements in this one over my previous, 'bumper-car' versions: 1) Much better normal cleaning 2) option of a powerful turbo-cleaning mode 3) camera-aware movements which reduce the 'bumper-car' approach radically 4) options for manually controlling direction, spot cleaning, and repeat cleaning 5) an app that can control it from anywhere (and gives a diagram of where it went after a cycle) 6) a remote controller that can control it from anywhere in the home and manually direct it's path 7) a much more accessible, top-loading dirt collector that is easy to empty and clean.
It was very easy to set up and start in auto mode. For me, dialing in the added features took some time and trial and error. Better instructions on these features would be a big help. For instance, in manual mode, I would click the directional arrow and it would stop but not move in the desired direction. It took awhile to discover that it wasn't just a matter of clicking, but you have to click and hold the arrows in the direction you want it to go (duh). Once I discovered this, it worked very well (though the sensitivities of manually controlling it are best left for directing it into an adjoining room when you're in a hurry for it to find it's way there - and not in the mood to carry it). I'm also not yet clear on how well the Spot function works. This is too early of a review to address that.
All-in-all I'm very pleased with the way the POWERBot 7040 works. It is powerful, smart, simple and affordable!
Where is the map? The remote from anywhere?
June 17, 2017
In my use, the remote has about about a four foot range, even the manual verifies this.
I have used the app, where is the map of where it cleaned? I used the Android app.
The bumper car still lives in this unit, 4 foot by 30 foot hall, and my unit bounces off the side walls.
Manually controlling direction again limited by a four foot range of the remote.

Why is there two storage selections and how do I switch between them. Is is SSD better than HDD for gaming?

The SSD houses the OS and means incredible start up times of well under 30 seconds.
The main 1TB drive should be used for storage.
