This is a handy little flash. I like the way you can angle the flash head and bounce the flash off a wall or the ceiling. I don’t think it’s come off the camera since we got it! It gives a much more natural colour to the images than the built-in flash on my Canon Rebel XSi.I’n using rechargeable batteries too, which are a bit slower to regenerate after each flash, but way cheaper int he long run.

10 year old grandson thought this was the “Best gift ever” to go with the Nerf Dart gun. Lots of darts to shoot his 3 siblings.

I have seen this in the theaters and this concert ROCKS. This is the Stones at their best. In my opinion, this movie should be a template for concert movies. It makes you feel like you are there. Can’t wait!!!!!

I ordered this after watching my husband having fun with his Zune HD, I had to get me one, however, being I already have an 80g classic and 16g nano iPod, I thought I would stick with Apple and get the Touch. Suffice it to say, now the hubby wants an iPod touch. It is a great pocket computer. It does live up to expectations that Apple has touted. I am mainly a music junky that totally loves the iPod music setup, but I have quickly come over to the App side. Apple has almost what seems an infinite amount of apps to choose from…you think of it?, someone probably has come up with it. It shares a lot of the same features that the iPhone does …(of course) it’s not a phone. It is wifi geared, if wifi is not available or is security locked, you can’t access any of the apps..specifically those that are tied into the web. Granted there are apps you can use, in which you have at your fingertips….games to play, music to listen to, movies/videos to watch that you don’t need wifi access. The first accessories I bought for the touch was a protective case and screen protector, very good investment!! The case allows me to stand it on it’s side to watch movies, and is made so it’s doesn’t slide around. The screen protector is like having a matted glass over a picture, and helps keep the annoying fingerprints from being so annoying.

The value for the money couldn’t be better. I would recommend this product to anyone needing HDMI cables.

there’s something “scary true” about this book…it’s fun and serious all in one…a must have!

This SD card works superb. I did not have any issues. The transfer speed is pretty good. Go for it.

Great product. Works wonderfully. Only complaint is that it is a little large but the security strap keeps it in place. I was able to throw it in the pocket of my jeans and wear it all day without the distracting clicking that comes with cheaper pedometers. Great for the price. Would recommend or buy as a gift.

I just finished reading Catcher in the Rye and I did not care for it at all. Wanted to read it because of the publicity, but maybe because I am a grandmother, I just didn’t like it. I just finished Dream Catcher by J. D. Salinger’s daughter, a book I greatly enjoyed and think his daughter is a remarkable individual. However, the book seemed extremely juvenile to me. Most of the content was given to sex and I can see where young boys and perhaps girls would enjoy it. Not something I would have ever cared for but it had a lot of unnecessary profanity. It speaks to me of a young man who was mentally ill, I am sure that a label could be put on it today. I am not so sure it was not actually describing Salinger himself. After reading his daughter’s book, I think Salinger definitely had mental illness, what I would call crazy. His family had to endure awful things because of him. He chose to be a recluse, and did not live in the real world, wanted to live in isolation.

I have been using the suction cup device that came with my Garmin for 2 years. Without fail in the Arizona heat, the suction device and my Garmin would come crashing down at inopportune times. Put a number of scratches and dents in my dash. The bag is easy to set up and has yet to slide off the dash even with some of the wild turns I need to make when avoiding traffic. Well worth the money.
