3 out of 5 stars Buyer beware!.......2007-12-25

I just received this product today. I ordered it in new condition but I believe it was used. The product came from the amazon returns center and when I opened the box, none of the pieces were wrapped in plastic. The main unit itself is a little scratched. I will probably return this...buyer beware.

5 out of 5 stars Love my Garmin.......2007-12-23

Living in a small town all my life, I have always been intimidated driving to bigger cities, like Dallas and Ft. Worth. My Garmin has given me the freedom to drive in confidence! I love the ease of use of this GPS. My husband was so impressed with this machine, he bought one for his car!

2 out of 5 stars Garmin Nuvi 200.......2007-12-23

Having already used a Garmin Nuvi 370, we were very disappointed with the Nuvi 200. We intend to replace it with the 370 which is far superior. The 200 does not name any of the streets to turn at. It only tells you to turn in point x miles which is not at all helpful when you are driving in an area you are not familiar with. The 370 warns you ahead of time the name of the street to turn at and repeats the name at the point of turning. Just listen and drive. Much easier than having to look down at your Garmin screen and try to read the map.Garmin nüvi 200 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator

5 out of 5 stars Best DSLR Camera.......2007-12-23

I am more than 100% satisified with this camera. I knew about the features well before I purchased, so no regrets. I would refer and prefer this camera to all those SLR lovers.

5 out of 5 stars Great value and still so versatile!.......2007-12-23

Canon has thought out this camera well and put a good
collection of useful features from its higher end DSLRs in this
model. Consequently, this camera has all the features that would keep
a budding photographer fulfilled for quite some time. In addition, the
great price allows you to spend more on good quality lenses, bounce
flash, and other accessories.

The useful features:

- Excellent picture taking: low noise sensor, ISO 1600 is quite usable. Fast
startup: camera is ready to shoot almost instantly at the press of
the shutter. Fast drive: 3 frames per second. With an Extreme III CF
card, one can shoot 27 shots before the camera becomes busy.

- Great user interface: One key access to white balance, ISO,
auto-focus modes, metering, drive, and AF points. These are all so nicely
laid out in the back of the camera. The grip is fine but could be a
bit more rounded. Light and compact.

- Ability to separate focus and exposure buttons with CF4 custom
function. This feature is poorly explained in the manual, but when
used with AI Servo AF, it makes the camera do less work and helps
you take great pictures. I also use custom white balance a lot. RGB
histogram, overblown pixel highlights, mirror lockup to prevent
camera shake are other useful functions.

The body is one quarter or even one-fifth of the picture taking
apparatus. The second quarter is a good lens (spend as much on a lens
as you will on the body), and half is your own dedication and skills
in photography. Invest in a bounce flash like speedlite 430ex or you
will be stuck taking pictures at home at ISO 1600. Buy some
photography books like Understanding Exposure.

Happy picture taking with this excellent body!

5 out of 5 stars Canon Rebel Xti wonderful.......2007-12-21

We received our new Canon Rebel in a timely fashion, for very low shipping and after shopping around found that Amazon had the best price, by far. The camera got here via UPS in two days and I didn't have to pay extra for shipping, matter of fact, I think it was free shipping. What a deal! It works great and my wife and I love it!

5 out of 5 stars Canon Digital Rebel XTi 10.1MP.......2007-12-21

Great camera -- easy to use, high resolution, battery lasts a very long time between charges. 2 inch LCD screen is super for seeing technical information and viewing photos after you take them -- the only improvement I can think of would be to be able to use the LCD screen as a viewfinder when you're taking photos. Anyway, a great camera, anyone buying it will not be disappointed.

5 out of 5 stars An excelent piece of work.......2007-12-19

I can not regaurd this camera Highly enough. The pictures I take are all gorgeous. After monthes of slogging through the net looking for what was right for me, I ended up going with one of my original choices.The rebel has become sort of a friend between me and my internet friends. The quality of my photography and my photomanipulation persuits has improved immesureably. I love the low ISO grain the camera has and full control over settings. Its got pretty much everythign a budding photographyer like me needs. Now I just need to get some better glass for it.

Go buy one!

Coby DP102 10-Inch Widescreen Digital Photo Frame with MP3 Player

Product Description

Those old photo frames atop your dresser, desk, night stand and on your walls are vignettes of memories captured as prints in the era of film cameras. The digital-camera makes available a technology where photos don't have to be displayed as prints. They're displayed on screen, much like that of a TV set or a computer monitor. This frame uses LCD flat-panel technology and, at 2-1/4" deep, fits almost anywhere a standard frame would. The difference - this frame is not limited to display only 1 or a few pictures. A digital picture frame can display dozens (if not hundreds) of images off a digital-memory card.
Here's a dandy way to display all those digital photos you're accumulating. Display one or all (in slideshow mode) directly from an SD, MMC, xD, or CompactFlash memory card. It's a great way to view your favorites on a table or on a wall - just like a regular picture frame. Yet COBY DP102 adds a unique feature. It has built-in speakers so you can play MP3 and WMA music files from your memory cards. You can even create photo slideshows with music. The DP102 has a USB port that lets you play photos stored on digital media drives. Its LED backlit screen delivers bright images for viewing in almost any situation.
This is a perfect frame to give to your parents and grandparents. Let them see pictures of you all the time from a memory card you provide them. It has a dual-volt AC adapter for international capability. Plays Most MP4 and AVI Video Files from Digital Cameras Photo Slideshow with or without Music AV Output for play through with Home Theater Systems SD - MMC - xD - CF Card Slots Full-Size USB Port for use with Flash Memory Drives USB Port for Fast File Transfers Integrated Stereo Speakers Interchangeable Faceplate (Black or White) to match your decor Detachable Stand Table use or Wall Mountable

2 out of 5 stars Cannot Connect to Computer.......2007-12-26

As another person mentioned, my 5.6" Digital Frame cannot connect to my computer. It takes multiple tries for it to even read the frame (my computer USB ports are 2.0) and when I do finally get my "F:" drive up and going, it says I cannot copy anything to the drive--I'm taking it back for sure. I know it reads a memory card and I can upload pictures via USB Drive, but the frame itself cannot connect to use the internal memory, which is all I really wanted to do. Good frame, but this is the second (another person in my family was having problems with hers) picture frame that is having problems. Technology is bound to fail, but there shouldn't be this type of problem right off the bat.

5 out of 5 stars Probably the best digital photo frame available as of dec, 2007.......2007-12-25

First let me say that I am reviewing the 8" frame model DP882. I notice that Amazon has a number of sizes of this frame lumped together. Not cool.

I wanted to get a photo frame for my mom and dad. They don't have a computer (and don't want one) and I wanted to get them something easy to use and something that looked really good. I didn't think I was going to buy one of these Cobys. I thought I would buy either a Phillips or Kodak. But after doing a little research on the specs of each, the Coby was the natural choice.

It has higher resolution than most other frames (800x600).
It has higher brightness than most other frames (350 cd/m2).
It has higher contrast ratio than most other frames (500:1).
It uses LED backlight technology (the latest and best at this time)
It accepts SD, MMC, MS, xD, and CF cards. (no SDHC certification)
It has both a full size USB port for flash keys and a mini USB port to hook it up to your computer.
It plays MP3s & WMA audio files (I have not tested yet) & has built in speakers and a headphone jack.
It also plays AVI and MP4 video files of the type generated by video cameras (At this time, I have only tried one small AVI file and it played it well)
It has a wireless remote control.

The one thing you need to know about this frame is that it doesn't have any internal memory. That may seem like a problem to you, but let me explain why it is not. It can play material directly from a card in any of the card slots. For example, 1 or 2 GB SD cards are cheap. Compare that with some of the other frames which cannot play directly from the cards and require you to copy material to the frame itself which usually have 256mb or less of memory. Who wants to do that? This way, you can just send your parents a cheap 1GB SD card preloaded with pics in the mail if you wanted to.

Operation is simple. Just turn it on, insert the preloaded card of your choice, select that card via the remote or keys on the side of the frame (you have to do that because you can have one of four different types of cards inserted at one time), then select slideshow and viola!

It will automatically scale down any large photos, which either have to be in JPG or BMP format. It does not automatically rotate them to fit the orientation of the frame, but you can do that manually with the remote control (though you can't save that preference in the frame). Your best course of action is to orient the photos ahead of time on your computer. The slideshow has about ten different transitions and you can set it to use one effect or randomly use all ten. You can change the duration of the of the photos from 5 seconds all way to 1 day. You can also have MP3 or WMA music play though the slideshow, though I have not tired this yet.

Through the frame itself (with no computer involvement) you can copy photos or files directly from one card to another or from a USB flash drive in any direction.

For example, you can copy photos/files

from USB Flash to SD card
from SD card to USB Flash
from SD card to CF card
etc.

I tired this function and it does work.

If I'm reading it correctly, the manual states that the frame itself will function as a card reader when connected to a computer. This makes sense to me based on the way the frame works. I have not tried this yet.

The frame has adjustable volume (for music and video) and easily adjustable brightness (via a wheel knob on the frame). I find it very easy to use.

I am VERY happy with the frame so far. The LCD looks fantastic, is very bright and has good contrast. I would recommend this frame to anyone.

If you have any questions feel free to leave comments as I will check back occasionally.

4 out of 5 stars Worth The Price but not much more........2007-12-25

This item is worth the price it is sold at. As written, it is important that you try to keep to the 16:9 photo size. If you do that, the photos fill the screen and look pretty good. I had some problems with the slideshow feature. I use Photoshop and the slide show absolutely would not show photos that were saved in the Progressive mode. If the photos were saved in Baseline mode there was no problem. It took a couple of hours of using the process of elimination to figure that out. It is not mentioned in the documentation anywhere. Was not able to get anyone on their 1-800 help line. I was on hold for 1/2 hour until they finally hung up on me. Documentation is not wonderful. Also, if you buy this item, make sure you look on the back side of the Styrofoam packing. The black interchangeable frame is packed there. It is very easy to overlook this and throw it away with the packaging material.

5 out of 5 stars Great frame for the price!!.......2007-12-25

I bought one of these for my mom and mother-in-law/father-in-law. I loaded all the pictures onto the frame (you need to buy a memory card because the frame itself doesn't have memory) and it was a big hit! The whole family was watching the slideshow and listening to Christmas music (that you can load to the frame also). It is very easy to load and use :)

3 out of 5 stars Video solution with 3rd party software.......2007-12-23

No significant problems with pictures, but nearly returned product due to video problems. The documentation states that AVI and MP4 formats are both supported; however, it is up to you to determine the correct compression algorithms or you get a black screen. After 2 days and many expletives, I have a solution that works well. It isn't fantastic, but it beats the heck out of not doing anything...

First, you will need MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5. It is free and very user friendly. After importing your video, you will need to Export to AVI. On the menu that comes up, you will need to select:

1) Compression: Apple Motion JPEG A
2) Sound: Uncompressed
3) Frame Size: 640 x 360

Leave everything else on default settings. Voila! Surprisingly, the file sizes are not very large (depending on the length of the clip).

Garmin StreetPilot c330 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator (Factory-Refurbished)

Product Description

Garmin StreetPilot C330 GPS Navigator In-car navigation has never been easier—or more affordable. Our StreetPilot "c-series" GPS navigators feature a simple touchscreen interface, with automatic route calculation to any destination and turn-by-turn voice-prompted directions along the way. Selecting a destination is straightforward and requires only a limited amount of input from the user. Plus, the StreetPilot c320 and StreetPilot c330 allow you to choose between a three-dimensional navigation view or the more traditional “bird's eye” overhead view. For the ultimate out-of-the-box convenience, the StreetPilot c330 comes preprogrammed with highly detailed MapSource City Select street data. The database features nearly six million points of interest—including hotels, restaurants, gas stations, ATMs, and attractions. (The c320 comes with a 128 MB SD card and a MapSource City Select CD-ROM for data transfer from a PC via a USB connection.) As an added benefit, you can now import customized points of interest with the help of Garmin's free POI Loader software. The possibilities are endless — upload safety cameras or school zones, and you will receive a warning if you are traveling too fast. In addition, an optional proximity-alert feature notifies you of upcoming custom POIs. The centerpiece of both units is a bright, 3.5-inch diagonal, 16-bit color display that makes navigation a snap. The StreetPilot c330 features dual integrated speake

Amazon.com Product Description

With a simple touch screen interface, automatic route calculation to any destination, and turn-by-turn voice-prompted directions, the StreetPilot c330 GPS navigator is a powerful companion for your adventures on the road. Plus, Garmin has designed the "c-series" of car navigation units to be as simple and easy-to-use as possible-- no more intimidating features, just straightforward, basic navigation at your fingertips. Selecting a destination is as simple as a few finger-strokes, and you can choose between a three-dimensional navigation view or the more traditional "bird's eye" overhead view.



The streetPilot "c-series" GPS navigators feature a simple touchscreen interface, with automatic route calculation to any destination.


The 3.5-inch diagonal, 16-bit color display makes navigation a snap.


The included database features nearly six million points of interests including hotels, restaurants, gas stations, ATMs, and attractions.
The c330 keeps track of places that you find and stores the fifty most recent finds in an easy to access list called Recent Selections, placing the most recently viewed at the top of the list. This becomes a very helpful feature if you visit the same places over and over and don't want the inconvenient of reloading the information in the unit multiple times. Although the c330 boasts distinctive and sleek styling, simplicity is the name of the game. The only buttons are a rotary volume knob and an on/off switch. The device is secured by a suction-mount cradle that fastens to the windshield for easy portability between vehicles. You can customize the unit's appearance with an array of colored faceplates that are sold separately.

For the ultimate out-of-the-box convenience, the StreetPilot c330 comes pre-loaded with highly detailed MapSource City Select street data. The database features an industry-leading five million-plus points of interest, including hotels, restaurants, gas stations, ATMs, and attractions. The c330's bright, 3.5-inch diagonal, 16-bit color display makes navigation a snap. The unit also features dual integrated speakers for high-quality voice prompts, and an internal lithium-ion battery for out-of-car route planning.

It's also worth mentioning that with some GPS units the manual to use them is as thick as a phone book, but it was a pleasant surprise to find that the c330's manual was very easy to use and provided many screen shots to make sure the user understood the units capabilities. If you find yourself on the road looking for addresses often and just want a GPS to tell you where to go simply and clearly than this unit was made for you.


What's in the Box
StreetPilot c330 receiver, vehicle suction cup mount, PC/USB interface cable and quick-reference guide. Also includes a factory pre-loaded version of Americas Recreational Basemap and MapSource City Select North America CD with full unlock (for sale in North America).

5 out of 5 stars Great!.......2007-12-25

Great little refurbished GPS, knows MPH, where you are at all times, and is awesome!

5 out of 5 stars Fabulous GPS for the $.......2007-12-12

this refurbished Garmin is terrific. it's a low end model without many bells and whistles, but we wanted a product we could try out before we invest in a nuvi or a high end TomTom. We tested it by changing our route midway on our trip, and it recalculated in seconds, sending us on our way with pinpoint directions. The voice is fine, too -- actually a human, not digital. For the money, you can't beat it!

Garmin eTrex Legend Mapping Handheld GPS

Product Description

With the eTrex Legend, GARMIN has loaded a full basemap of North and South America into one small unit. The Legend is also designed to provide precise GPS positioning using correction data obtained from the Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS). Brightly colored translucent blue case Power Source - Two AA batteries (not included)

Amazon.com Review

There are now enough handheld global positioning system (GPS) receivers on the market that you can be choosy when it comes to price, features, and design. Garmin--a leading manufacturer of car, boat, and personal GPS receivers--has a complete line of eTrex handheld receivers, with our Legend falling about midrange.

With Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) support, the eTrex Legend offers extremely accurate readings (rated to within 2 to 3 meters). (For more on WAAS, see the Frequently Asked Questions section.) A good-size screen--288 x 160 pixels--makes it easy to see location details, and the Legend redraws maps quickly when zooming in or out of a position.

The Satellite page shows satellites being tracked, and their corresponding signal strength. View larger.


The internal trip computer provides a range of data about hikes and drives. View larger.
Its 8 MB of memory means there is also plenty of room for waypoints, routes, and saved tracks. The Legend will hold up to 500 waypoints, complete with a name and graphical symbol, 20 routes with 50 waypoints each, and it contains slots for 10 saved tracks. You can also download maps from Garmin's MapSource CD-ROMs (thorough but expensive accessories for the GPS receiver) to see street-level or topographic detail (depending on the CD-ROM title).

But one of the most striking attributes of the Legend is its comfortable and efficient design. While it rests easily in the palm of either hand, it's most suited for the left hand, where its handy click-stick can be manipulated with the thumb. The click-stick works like the pencil-eraser nubbin on laptop PCs and is handy for moving through screen icons and menus. It also works as a button when pressed down.

The Legend is coated with a waterproof, rubberized plastic shell that grips nicely. Weighing in at only 5.3 ounces, it fits into a pocket or clips onto a belt loop, going almost unnoticed.

The internal trip computer of the Legend provided a range of data about our hikes and drives, including current speed, average speed, trip distance, and time traveled (both moving and stopped). For those interested in checking out their foot pace and distance traveled, it's a handy GPS to have in hand.

Our only major beef with the Legend is that the receiver sometimes seemed to grow weak. Even when it wasn't in WAAS mode (which can be tough to maintain a signal in), it dropped the signal from time to time. We even lost the signal once while walking along the streets of San Francisco--it seems that the medium-size buildings were enough to interfere with the reception.

But this only happened on a few occasions. Most of the time the well-designed Legend was able to keep us in touch with up to 12 GPS satellites for a strong-enough read to maintain a tight handle on our location. --J. Curtis
