Good, and confident it will be great soon

I love to have new tech as soon as it comes out - sometimes this means that you have to be patient as it improves over time - this is the case with Google Home.
Having seen/used a friends 'Alexa', I was eager to get the Google Home as it looks better and ultimately should link to all my other android/google devices. It's easy to setup and get going, and immediately seems quite functional. Asking it to play music, set a timer, tell you the time or answer a simple question, all work flawlessly and she answers the questions in quite a non-robotic way. The sound is also very good, although it would be great to be able to tweak the bass/treble levels.
The issues that I'm currently having is it's compatibility with apps and also how it affects how I use my phone. I actually have 4 Google Home's scattered around the house, so sometimes when I want to use google on my phone, it will pick up my request on google home and won't be able to process it. Also I would love the ability to add notes to Wunderlist using Google Home.
I'm sure that there will be more functionality coming soon, and to be honest I haven't really had the time to fully investigate it true limits.
For now though, I'm very happy with it, and looking forward to the future.

I'll make this as brief as possible...this thing sounds great and gets very loud. It's not amazing for music, but for gaming and movies, it's awesome.
So why 4 stars - no DTS:X or any DTS surround support. No on-screen display. The remote is meh.
If you've got a square/rectangular room and don't want to run wires all over the place this setup is great, a little pricey, but great.

Make the most of your space with this Epson Expression inkjet printer. It lets you print, scan and copy, yet it takes up very little room thanks to its compact design, and it also includes a full-color screen. Enjoy printing speeds of up to 13 ppm in black or 10 ppm in color from this Epson Expression inkjet printer.

Great little printer

My last printer (Canon) just randomly stopped working one day and I needed something quick. I wanted something that wasn't large, but was good quality and had wireless and cloud printing. This little guy got great reviews and fortunately for me, was on sale at the time so I took the plunge. I have to say that I'm very glad I did, it's a wonderful little printer and more than lives up to my expectations.
It was very easy to set up, prints very well and doesn't take up much space.
I haven't used the scanner feature yet, but if it's as good as everything else, I'll be very happy!

Worth the upgrade (for me)

The main reason for me buying the XBox One S was for the improved WiFi capabilities, i.e. wireless AC. Before switching to the S I was getting about 50-60 Mbps, but after switching get well over 100+ Mbps, obviously for gaming this is huge. I've also just got a 4k TV and it looks great on it, but I'm sure the old one would have too :)
The fact that you have to get an adapter (although free through Microsoft) to use the Kinect is annoying because I like the voice controls to turn it on/off. The extra wires and power supply for this are probably worse than the power brick on the regular Xbox One.
Overall I'm really happy with my purchase.

Excellent TV and Playstation Now coming soon

It took me a while to decide between a Samsung and a Sony, but I'm very happy that I chose the Sony. The picture quality is excellent and the TV itself looks great too.
It was a breeze to setup and the built in wifi is awesome. I wish there were a few more apps available for it, such as HBO GO, but now Amazon Prime has HBO that problem is solved.
The sound quality is just OK, but I'll be using a home theater system, so that's not a big issue for me.
What I'm really excited about is Playstation Now. This will allow you to stream PS3 games directly to the TV without any additional hardware other than a controller. Awesome!!!
Internet content most enjoyed: Amazon Prime, Pandora
