better than you would think from the reviews

Although there were a lot of reviews complaining about poor screen performance, I decided to take a chance and get one anyway. My screen works just fine. There are also a lot of complaints about how easily the watchface gets scratched. I've bumped mine into a wall, and the mark rubbed right off. No, it's not a sapphire crystal, but it's also not a $300 watch. Using it with iOS does take using some workarounds like installing the httpebble helper app, and it still doesn't work as good as it would with Android. However, It does work really well with various music apps for displaying and changing the current track, and it works well with notifications. Just being able to see text messages without taking my phone out of my pocket is probably worth the price, but there are a couple of great watchfaces that show weather information along with the time and date that seal the value for me. Until Apple comes along with something better, this is the smartwatch to get.
My Best Buy number: 2094052903
What's great about it: It does provide a nice degree of added functionality
What's not so great: limited compatiblility with iOS
I would recommend this to a friend!

MacBook Pro features Intel's latest quad core processor, the core i5 processor, for a boost in processor and memory speeds. New next-generation graphics deliver performance levels that are up to 60 percent faster than before. And high-speed Thunderbolt I/O lets you transfer data at rates up to 10 GBps. The MacBook Pro is a great computer that just got even greater.

best small laptop for the money

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a quality computer, constructed out of great materials that is going to last for a long time and retain a lot of trade-in value. It comes pre-loaded with most of the personal software you'll need and none of the bloatware you'll find on Windows computers. If you're switching to the Apple OS, you'll need to get used to the Finder-based method of file navigation, but then again, if you're switching to Windows 8, you'd have to get used to the new UI there as well. If you've got the money to spend, you're better off spending it on a MacBook than a comparable Windows laptop.

Does the Sony 1000XM3 InEar have it's own volume control? I need to amplify my listening, while my wife listens to the normal TV volume. I have a pair of the Sony 1000XM# over the Ear Head Phones and of course they DO have volume control. Thanks.

No, the on-ear controls only control playback; you have to control the volume on the device you're connected to.

Use the Google Smart Light Starter Kit to control the lights using just your voice. Set up in a snap: just plug in Google Home Mini, screw in the GE C-Life smart light bulb, and download the Google Home app to get started. Then just say "Hey Google" to dim, brighten, turn on and turn off the lights."
 

Does this light bulb do multiple colors?

Do I need the hub with the Life bulb & Google Home?

Nope, the Google mini acts as the hub. All the hardware you need is in the box

Add stability to your home network with the Amped Wireless HELIOS-EX Wi-Fi Extender. With DirectLink technology, it avoids signal loss by adding another 5GHz Wi-Fi channel to the standard setup, which it then uses strictly for receiving signal from the source. This Amped Wireless HELIOS-EX Wi-Fi Extender covers an area of up to 12,000 sq. ft. and includes four Gigabit network ports.
 

Can it use the same SSID as my TWC modem?

It will "clone" your SSID by adding a suffix to it, but it won't let you use the identical SSID. If you want to extend a network that way, you need to go with a mesh network.
