At only $499.00 this is a fantastic buy from a reputable manufacturer. The image on this site shows $35 per year to operate. The sticker on the device read only 18.00 per year. It is very light too.
My Best Buy number: 0322356359
What's great about it: 120 Hz and 1080p
What's not so great: Only 2 HDMI inputs

Google Nexus - 7" - 16GB: With more pixels than an HDTV in the palm of your hand, movies appear in Full HD and even small text looks razor-sharp. Whatever you use it for — Web browsing, watching movies or gaming — you won't want to put it down.

Drops Internet connection too often
on November 26, 2013
Posted by: Adirolf
from Alabama
I use it in...:Apartment
I had to return this one as it would not keep the Internet connection. I saw many drops per day in the cable modem log, which explained the download interruption errors.
I wanted this one based on a previous router from Netgear and the same feature in this one to block certain sites.
The Netgear Genie software reflects incorrect settings and staus compared to the web-based config interface.
Netgear Geanie has to be downloaded separately.
Parental controls require 3rd party software / registration

This makes the Galaxy Nexus usable in my opinion. I have seen other batteries with more capacity but this was on sale for 24.99. That can't be beat.
My Best Buy number: 322356359
What's great about it: Long lasting (compared to the original)
What's not so great: Could use a little more capacity. Adds weight.

Beautiful display

Posted by: Adirolf
from Alabama
This is a very nice monitor. 1080p is just gorgeous. I do wish that it booted faster - one has to look at the Acer then Energy Star logos for too long. It is very good at auto-sensing devices being powered on or off and acts accordingly. I paid the normal price for this one as I was returning a gift that was a lot less monitor both in size and in resolution. This was the only monitor that met my minimum specs in the store where purchased.

What's great about it: HDMI ports
What's not so great: No sound, boots slowly

Great Gadget

This device has saved loads of money as cable companies charge $3.00 - 7.00 per month rental fee for the same or similar device.
Although it is DOCSIS 2 and not 3, the cable company in most cases only needs 2 for the lower speeds

This is one great gadget. It just keeps impressing me. This is my first smart phone. Ice Cream Sandwich makes it very nice to use. When texting, it predicts my next word with amazing accuracy - as if it's reading my mind. It fixes my typos as well. My only complaint would be the battery life.

Nice router

Posted by: Adirolf
from Alabama
I use it in...:Apartment
This wireless router is a simple no-frills router. It can easily handle many devices wirelessly at once. We use a mix of Windows-based PCs and laptops, Android Tablets and smart phones simultaneously. Even a wireless printer when the printer is functioning.
You can see the connected devices using the web-browser interface.
I would like to be able to block certain sites though. That feature is missing from this device.
I would now recommend a similar priced Netgear router.

Posted by: Adirolf

This was purchased as a replacement device. We are very happy with it. The weight and feel make you think it is anything but toy-like. It has a beautiful display. The only thing missed is the memory card slot, but with 16GB of storage, it will not be filled for a long time. Stereo speakers and Dolby Digital sounds nice!

I must add to the above review.
After many Internet searches for info on NFC support, I sent an email to Lenmar the maker of this item. The response received confirms that this device does NOT support NFC.
If you are interested in using things like Android beam, tap-to-pay (Google Wallet, Isis wallet etc) then look for a better item.

Can you use the HDMI input to hook up to Satelite receiver?

I do not think that the HDMI port really knows what is sending the signal and should not discriminate.

what is the jelly bean proser

Is it better than the ice cream sandwich?
I do not know what a "proser" is at all. Jelly Bean seems more feature laden than Ice Cream Sandwich. If you meant 'browser", then I think they are the same. I tend to load my favorite browser rather than the default.

Is it possible to buy heads for a printer?

Someone told me the heads on my printer were bad. the machine is only 2 years old.
Most of today's printers have the print heads built into the ink cartridges. If yours is an older model without this technology, you may be better off upgrading to one of the affordable ones that does. Include your model number etc when asking and people may have the same issue, etc. Good luck!
