Samsung - Evo+ 32gb Microsdhc Class 10 Uhs-1 Memory Card - Red/white is nice and fast. 20MB/s write time is good enough for most video devices - such as GoPro. But the great part is the 80MB/s read speed to copy those videos to the computer. I usually get about 50MB/s read time..but that is likely to the memory card port or write time on the computer. All in all - great speed and great price when it's on sale.

Belkin - Wemo Switch - is nice. I have it connected to Amazon Echo - they work together very nicely. The Belkin Wemo app for android/cellphone is nice and simple. I like that it can work from outside of the house, over 4G. Setup of the Wemo wall plug switch is a little tricky - but manageable. When connecting the Wemo to work via 4G, you need to open a couple ports on your router. Nice product - hope the price comes down - very fun to talk to Alexa to have her turns lights on/off.

Google - Google Home - is a awesome, fun product. I also have an Amazon Echo - interesting comparisons. Briefly: Google Home - smarter to talk to, able to answer more and varied questions. Very nice smartphone app interface. Severely lagging behind on smart home connectivity. They have a few major brands to connect to, but still missing hundreds of others. Amazon Echo: Love the smart home connections - almost every device you can think of (except google products). Nice audio quality. Easy to talk to. Lastly, I like saying "Alexa...." much more than I like saying "Hey, Google..."

I've been waiting for this Samsung - Galaxy Tab A (2016) - 10.1 - 16gb With S Pen - Black. The s-pen was the clincher for me. I needed a new way to take notes and drawings - this is wonderful. At first the tiny (included) s-pen was awkward, but now it's a breeze to use. I use OneNote for my note taking. I tried the Samsung Note application - nice application and features.
This tablet is nice and FAST. It also have very nice battery life. GREAT product. And the sale price at Best Buy was great.

Pioneer - Cd - Built-in Bluetooth - Apple® Ipod®-ready was quite easy to install (my first car audio installation). The sound is quite good. The menu system is a little difficult using the big round button for multiple tasks..but this is not a show stopper. I love the Bluetooth connection to my Android phone. I use the microphone provided - this make for GREAT, EASY, and CLEAR hands-free talking on the phone via the radio. Bluetooth music audio from my Android works great, too. Finally, the lighted front panel is nice...I was able to select a color to match the interior of my car.

Amped Wireless HighPower RE1750A range extender worked quite well. In my house it was able to pickup a weak wifi single - approx 40' away through 5 walls with decent reception. I then took my laptop approx 100' away (line of sight) to the Amped Extender and had very nice throughput. It works great and really extends the wifi range for me.

Control your life with the Amazon Echo. It started with a music player that could play anything from Prime Music to Spotify and Pandora, and it gives you hands-free convenience, yet it can now control lights, switches and thermostat and answer questions thanks to advanced voice recognition. Use the Amazon Echo to order an Uber or even pizza from Domino's.

The Amazon Echo is awesome. It is VERY easy to set up. I mostly play pandora music, but it works with Amazon music and Audible.

This WD My Cloud drive features a 4TB capacity and lets you stream media to compatible DLNA-/UPnP-capable devices or upload and access data on the go via PC, Mac and compatible mobile phones and tablets. Automatic backup helps safeguard your files.
hello there, is it true that with this device i can listen to my music anywere even in my vehicle
can i use this external hard drive in the stereo in my car so i can listen to my music
Hey. Great idea. First, WD MyCloud has an app which is your music player (WD Music Player). I'm currently away from home, connected to the NAS via internet and listening to music (playlist) on the NAS.
Second, listening remotely from the car - interesting. So I tried this! Download the app "WD MyCloud" for android phone. Set up your remote connectivity/secure access (just as you would for a PC to access MyCloud remotely). In the app, navigate to your music/playlist...click Play. That's it. This worked well. Keep in mind audio streaming uses a lot of your data plan if you are connected via 4G or 3G.

Mac Users...
Are there any issues using this device as aa TimeMachine for mac?
Sorry. I don't have experience with this NAS and TimeMachine. I only access the NAS from PC. The product does mention it works with TimeMachine backup...and has a default folder on it for that.

Easily multitask on your Samsung Galaxy Note Pro or Galaxy Tab Pro with this Samsung S Action ET-MP900DBEGUJ mouse that features a Blue Trace sensor and 1600 dpi sensitivity for precise control. Bluetooth technology offers easy connectivity.
Can you use the Bluetooth mouse and a Bluetooth keyboard at the same time?
I have a Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 (Great tablet!). I was wondering if I can use the S Action Mouse at the same time I am using a Bluetooth keyboard (I have a Zagg keyboard/case I often use with my tablet).
Yes. At least on my Win8.1 Tablet. I use Logitech bluetooth keyboard and Microsoft Sculpt Comfort bluetooth mouse at the same time. They work simultaneously. However, sometimes my keyboard is a little laggy. My thought is it's the Win8 tablet that is the culprit.
