Pros: - Works as described
- Can switch between iPhone 4 and second phone at will now
- Fits snug and secure in second phone
- doesn't damage sim card at all
- very simple and working as described
- very affordable considering what it allows
Cons: - Extra stickers would be nice
- if you constantly switch sims, you may run into trouble when the sticker loses it's adhesiveness
Bottomline: Works just as described and can be a big help with using multiple phones. If you're looking for something like this, you may also want to consider the long run of running out of stickers.

Pros: - Had a charge right out of the box
- Worked just as I needed it to
- Fits 8100 perfectly
- Charges to full capacity and maintains charge properly
- Fits correctly and the obscure brand is nothing to be afraid of
- Cheaper than what other places were offering for it!
Other Thoughts: brought my blackberry back from the dead!!
Bottomline: Works flawlessly for blackberry. If you're looking to replace your battery, look no further. This is the best price as well, and seems to maintain it's charge so far.

Pros: I've seen disassembly tools that only come with a couple clips and a pick. This one comes with all the correct screwdrivers and even the suction cup required for screen removal. The plastic for the tools is fairly strong and has not yet broke for me (unlike previous tools i've tried). I recommend this to anyone trying to disassemble their 3G or 3Gs.
Bottomline: Has everything I need to open up my 3Gs and the stickers are a huge plus. The plastic is super strong and hasn't broken yet at all.

Pros: Completely perfect. Does exactly what I needed it to. No lines or distorted images, just simple vga quality. The cost is much more affordable compared to the Apple one, and it has just as good of a build as it. Comes in a nice packaging, and looks real legit.
Other Thoughts: Works with my 13" Macbook Pro. Has minor color loss, but that's expected anyway.
Bottomline: If you need the adapter, I'd say to go for it. You won't find another one this close to the real thing for an affordable price anywhere else.

Pros: - Strong build quality - Works on all iOS devices and exceptionally well too! - extra clip helps to clip to iPad case
Cons: - Here's where it gets awkward. Seems it's not as good when used on an iOS device with an invisibleShield applied. I'm not too sure about other screen protectors though - You have to hold the stylus at the right angle for it to even provide a conductive surface to write with. It can be a pain for some
Bottomline: If you're after this set for everything, I'd say to go for it. But if it's strictly the stylus you need, then you may have to pass. It's still usable, but even without a screen protector, can be somewhat awkward to use.

Pros: - cute little keychain-like thing
- android, what more to ask for??
- can easily clip onto any (android) phone
- looks just like the logo
- green!
Cons: - A little pricey for what it does, don't you think??
- The imprint of the "made in china" is kindah annoying.
- seems to be an alright size, but I've got mine hanging from my computer, not from a phone. I imagine it's a lot more awkward off a phone.
Bottomline: Show some android love! Don't mind the writing on the back, just display it with the face looking outward ;)

Pros: - perfect adapter! - does exactly what I needed it to do. - excellent build quality - mounts sd cards perfectly
Cons: none! this surpassed my expectations.
Other Thoughts: I used this with a 16gb sdhc card that broke out of it's external case (I know, don't ask). I managed to salvage the card in this case and now use it as a usb drive. This adapter was perfect for my plan and has worked flawlessly since.
Bottomline: If you need this to salvage any sd cards, I say to go for it! The cover on the card can let you use it as a usb drive for portability and you don't even have to worry about the card falling out. It's strong and secure, and always mounts well on my machines.

Pros: Perfect item. Works with good sound quality and a perfect extension for my home theater system. Can be used to hook any mp3 to a stereo. excellent build quality and good length.
Other Thoughts: I use this with my home stereo to connect my mp3s to when I need them. Grab this with a 3.5mm (female) to rca (audio) converter and you'll be set to do the same!
Bottomline: Works exactly as described and very good for the price. If you need an affordable cable of a moderate length, this is the one. It's the best one I've come across so far.

Pros: - Charges my motorola Razr 2.... but it just charges it from what I've noticed. - Very affordable compared to other sites that wanted close to $10 for something like this - Very strong build quality and style. You never have to really detach it from the attached cable since it can be strapped on for ease
Cons: - From what I've noticed so far, it just charged. I read the reviews and posts on this item, but mine has not been able to work with any data transfer yet. That's mainly why I purchased it.
Bottomline: If you're looking for something to charge your phone, then this is the perfect option. However if you need any data transfer, be weary about this one.

Cons: none! Does what it needs to do, and it's great!
Bottomline: I've been using it as a protective sleeve for my 13" Macbook Pro and it's fit the bill so far. It's a perfect size despite it's labelled for 14.4" notebooks, and it lets me carry my laptop around safely in my bag.

Pros: - It works just as it's supposed to. The drive formatted correctly and I've had no problems with it so far. - Much more affordable than the original which retails for over $70 - higher storage capacity than the original device label ravage
Cons: - The front mouth is somewhat not like the original - no metallic chrome on parts that would have it - The usb plug slides out well, but can be a pain to get back in
Bottomline: Worth every penny if you're looking for the device label ravage! It's a perfect alternative to the original, and you even get a higher storage capacity for a fraction of the cost

Pros: Good strong build. Baton extends upon swinging. Tip locks in place so it will not extend if not wanted.
Cons: The spring end swings a lot and the tip sometimes retracts when it is extended.
Bottomline: Great baton for the price and it makes it through customs in a sinch.
