Quality Cable
on March 16, 2018
Posted by: FingerLakesJohn2
from Finger Lakes NY
Verified Purchase:Yes
Well made cable with decent flexibility and a nifty guard over the plug release tab that prevents the cable from getting caught when it’s pulled through a bundle of wires. Plugs fit securely with no extraneous play.
Performance has been noticeably glitch free so far.

Spectacular!

If you are looking for material to show off your new high end HDR 4K TV, this is it! The photography and animal behavior content is thrilling, engaging, at times poignant, and utterly spectacular. The multichannel HD Audio is also outstanding. The only reason I rated it five stars is because they don't offer the option of six.

Makes a decent cup of hot chocolate
on August 18, 2017

Essentially Swiss Miss mix packaged in a K Cup for instant brewing, works well - brewed chocolate is hot, surprisingly rich and chocolaty. Doesn't clog the machine nor leave a residue taste.

Very Reliable Memory Card
on June 17, 2017
Posted by: FingerLakesJohn2
from Finger Lakes NY
Verified Purchase:Yes
SanDisk Extreme Pro Cards have become my go to memory cards for my DSLR's. I also use one in a backyard trail cam that is exposed to 100 degree heat and -15F cold. I have yet to have a time when it didn't record or failed to read, and the speed supports high speed burst shooting with ease. It also downloads very quickly with my iMac's built in SD card slot. Costs a bit more, but worth the price.

Still the best upright for deep carpets
on January 7, 2017
Posted by: FingerLakesJohn2
from Finger Lakes NY
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is my third Hoover Wind Tunnel. The first one we gave away to our daughter, and the second just died (after about 15 years) mostly due to some stupidity on my part. This new one has stronger suction and is more refined than the last one, but isn't built of as heavy plastic. We have deep pile wall to wall carpeting and it cleans far and away better than the last one. The self propelled feature is much better too, it really is quite effortless to move back and forth.
I have to confess that i am not a fan of bagless vacuums, having gotten rid of a Dyson after a year or two that cost twice what the Hoover does. We have people with allergies in the house, and when you dump the container you end up breathing all the dust you just cleaned up. Stupid. Give me the Hoover with a bag every time.
My only complaint is that it is rather noisy and quite heavy, so if you have to move it between floors it may not be for you.

Great lens cleaner for the money
on September 23, 2016
Posted by: FingerLakesJohn2

Verified Purchase:Yes
Similar to other cleaner pens but this one has a screw top over the lens wipe end so it doesn't fall off easily. Real bargain at the sale price. Cheap enough to keep one in several cars, for example.

Great Hard Drive for iMac

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm using this as a Time Machine backup drive on my iMac running Yosemite. For a Mac all you need do is reformat it with the Mac Disk Utility. The drive is quiet and fast and so far rock solid. My only quibble is I wish that they had installed an indicator on the front of the drive.

Great Scale - Terrible Software
on November 23, 2015
Posted by: FingerLakesJohn2
from Finger Lakes NY
Verified Purchase:Yes
I like the scale fine. It's easy to use, seems to be quite accurate and repeatable, and appears to be well designed and well made. The software, however, is terrible. First, do not believe their ads that say you can use it with an iPad. You can't. The software for iPad that links to the scale doesn't even exist in the App store. The scale only works with an iPhone. Even then it is unreliable and does't always capture the weight reading, and once there is not user friendly nor even comprehensible at times. You can't even edit out a bogus reading, like if a child plays with the scale, even if they say you can.
The readings also do not sync across platforms, so if you edit the data on their web site it doesn't change in the phone. Documentation is virtually nonexistent. This could be a five star product if Withings would only hire some competent software engineers and provide some decent customer support. As it stands now I couldn't recommend this product unless you are OK with manually writing down readings and graphing them yourself.

Much improved over the older version
on August 22, 2015
Posted by: FingerLakesJohn2
from Finger Lakes NY
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had an older version of this for my iPad Air but I dropped it and the attachment ears broke. The case did its job though and the iPad was undamaged. This new model is not only considerably cheaper but is much more strongly made, and now the keyboard automatically switches on when the iPad is placed in the typing position. The outer case is more scratch resistant as well. Logitech has hit a home run with these product improvements.

Set up this 65-inch Sony HDR Ultra TV, and entertain your family with their favorite films. Ultra 4K HD means you experience life-like action whether you're watching a movie or enjoying the game, and Voice Search lets you command without a remote. This Sony HDR Ultra TV is compatible with PlayStation Vue, letting you live stream events as they happen.
 

I bought the Sony 4K Bravia XBR-65X900E tv and I am trying to stream music from my apple devices music and stuff. Can you tell me how to do this?

I do it with an Apple TV using Home Sharing. It only takes a few minutes to set up and then a simple click will share media from any Apple device on your home network. It will also display photos directly from iCloud. Apple TV will require using an HDMI port on the TV though, and it doesn't stream in 4k (yet), but I expect the next version will probably support it.

Stay paired

Does it stay paired with bluetooth or does need to be paired constantly? I ask this because that is a problem with Zagg.
It automatically pairs each time it switches on when the iPad is placed in typing position. Takes perhaps 2 seconds and is totally automatic. There is a blue indicator light that indicates successful pairing.
