Pros: Excellent sound across whole response, i tend to lean to bassy music(i like to feel the music!) and although these are not the most bassy earphones i have heard they give a nice rounded tight bass response, no 'muddled' or muffled low end sound that sounds like a mumbling old person talking to themselves, also the plug and back of earphones are aluminium metal really stylish and makes them look expensive
Other Thoughts: Comes with 2 other sets of rubber grommets/plugs, remember every now and then use a cuetip to clean them
Bottomline: Excellent buy, highly recommended for cheapskates

Pros: Solidly built, everything external is metal except blue window and flame dial, strong flames would almost be 'tornado-proof'-no need to cup your hands when lighting up with this baby!
Cons: Batteries for lights are still good on mine but getting to them is a real bugger, i suggest waiting until all gas is used up first, also its slightly too big to put in smokes packet and a bit heavy for shirt pocket, but its all metal-that more than makes up for that!
Other Thoughts: I had to wait longer for mine as it was back ordered, but it was worth it!
Bottomline: Looks cool with lights on in a dark bar, impresses the ladies and great ice breaker!

Pros: Cheap, has quite a few codes, touchscreen gives more options, ir range is ok, fast auto setup, nice even backlight
Cons: Code bank did not support any of my a/v equipment, but operated friend's tv ok, and you need a stylus or similar to activate touch screen(accepted given small screen size)
Other Thoughts: Check your brand is supported first, but past experience has shown even that is no guarantee, sometimes it does'nt state your brand but will still work with another code
Bottomline: Cheap and works mostly ok

Pros: This is basically a four port usb hub with a flashing lcd window that turns on and off when hub is accessed, allowing image inside to 'flash'
Cons: For ease of use i gave it 3 because its a bit fiddly and time consuming to open and change photo, if it had a slot to insert it would be dead easy to use, also usb hub is ok but not the fastest speed, and usb devices that need extra power need not apply
Other Thoughts: Great for promotional/pr/sales people-just print your logo and put it in! Probably good idea for logo or high contrast photos only, since there is no backlight, image viewing relies solely on ambient lighting
Bottomline: Use this to get noticed

Pros: solidly built with nice finish, smooth focus action, image is clear, cheapest bino in range considering ship included
Cons: Main one is spec, "65x42"-in optical terms the first number is normally magnification and second is focal length(in mm), this bino is NOT 65x mag, probably 10x or 12x
Other Thoughts: i bought it solely as a high mag spotting scope, just wished spec was more accurate
Bottomline: its the cheapest and built rather well for its range, if you need medium mag bino get it

Pros: does exactly what its designed for, cheap, easy to use, range is ok(kind of depends on position of cable as it seems to be the antenna) tells temp and time too, cable wraps around tx when not in use
Cons: because it uses 2 aaa batteries its slighty bulky but still 'pocketable', and some might say cable is too short but its fine for me, also connector is 3.5mm if your mp3 is 2.5mm need adapter
Other Thoughts: when tuning i started at low end (88.1mhz) at first sound came through but it was fuzzy, no amount of moving cable or swapping batteries fixed it, then i tried at other end (108mhz) and waalaa! problem solved, dont know if it was my stereo, or my location, or nearby radio stations, or all of the above!
Bottomline: if you need it get it!(and nimh batteries)
