Great practical use.......2007-12-21
This is a good quality VGA cable with a great feature -- the included mini cable. We threaded it through the wall from our source to our HDTV, and the two-in-one setup made installation easy. It also makes the connection on each side simpler and neater. We just plug the mini connection into the headphone jack on the computer and into the mini connection on the TV, and it worked like a charm. Great setup.
great cable.......2007-12-17
This is the perfect cable for hooking a computer up to an LCD TV. I wanted to have my computer in the corner out of the way and needed a long cable to run. it includes an audio jack so you don't have to buy and run separate cables for audio and video.
Tardog.......2007-12-17
Still waiting. I am sure the product will work fine, but GOOD GOD, what is the United States postal service doing with my package. They must have borrowed it for awhile. I could have gotten it faster with a camel. Thank god for FedEx and UPS !! I do not know why Amazon uses USPS to send items?
Perfect quality, Amazing price!!! Going to buy again!.......2007-12-02
25' Long Monitor and Audio cable. Price is 4x less than BestBuy, CircuitCity... Image quality on my LG 42" LCD is excellent.
Mysterious cable compared to the old short cable.......2007-11-12
My old cable always got me 1080P resolution on my LCD TV, but it was short. I need a 15 feet cable, but settled on this 25' cable. When I first hooked this up using a DVI to DB15 converter on my PC adapter and the DB15 port on the PC, I only got 1600x1200 on the TV, secondary monitor. When I forced it to 1920x1080, I would get an "invalid format" message on the TV. I am not sure what I did, but I took cable off put it back on a few times, boot the PC a few times and download the latest ATI graphic driver and Catalyst Control Center from ATI website, now I am able to get 1080P resolution without much hassle. If I tweak too much by doing swapping displays and changing resolution too often, I occasionally got an invalid format again, but by disenabling it and enabling the secondary monitor (TV) using ATI Catalyst Control Center, I always was able to bring it back. It definitely is a little more fickly than the old short cable, but once I got used to it, it is no big problem.

Customer Reviews:
Such a deal...like I never saw..........2007-12-01
What surprise when I plugged my ipod in and got such great sound. I'm very picky about sound systems (not a big Bose fan) and I really liked this one.
Anyway, for this price it's a great value. Only one thing...the remote is just a little weird. I'd put up with that considering the bass response and that this is a cool looking machine!
Enjoy.
great for small spaces.......2007-10-20
we are enjoying our Itone. the sound quality is very nice and it works well with our IPOD.
Great Value .......2007-08-23
This docking station has a little bit of everything. It not only will play an IPOD but allow the user to connect an auxiliary device like the Roku Internet radio tuner, listen to CDs, and tune-in your favorite radio station. Do not expect the sound to approach that of a $2000 hifi. The reproduction is more than adequate for a small system. I highly recommend this unit for those who desire a docking station with reasonable sound quality and good features.
Good product for the price.......2007-08-20
I was looking for a speaker system for my iPod that would also play CD's and radio (which there aren't that many available) and this is a great price for all the functions. The sound is great, not quite as good as the Bose speakers but it is also much more affordable and has more functions so I think it is well worth the money. If you just want a speaker for your iPod this may not be what you are looking for, but if you want to basically replace your stereo system with one that has iPod capability I would recommend this system. No problems or issues with it, the black model looks great and fits nicely in the entertainment center. Very user friendly. The remote option is also a nice bonus. Would recommend to others.
Excellent item for normal expectations.......2007-08-12
I have an ipod (video, 80 GB) and tons of cd's.
This home audio System is not gonna blow your living room with decibels, but for a room, or a nice evening with some folks is a great deal.
The inner subwoofer works just fine, the ipod, radio and cd devices sounds clear and nice.
Beware of the ipod 5g generation adapter. It's not included (so you better keep the original ipod box with its adaptor). Although, the 4G adapter works (not recommended in the long shot).
The only downside is that the control don't navigate the entire ipod system. Just works for play/pause and to go forward and backwards between tracks. So you have to make some cool playlists.

Customer Reviews:
Very nice headphones.......2007-12-24
I just received my MX55V and I am impressed. The twist to fit system creates a nice snug fit. The sound is great. While working out, one side loosens up a bit, but not to bad. Overall a good value.
Good value.......2007-12-18
I needed an inexpensive pair of replacement headphones for my ipod, so I tried these. I like them, they sound decent and the price is right. The volume control is handy and they fit my ears well. If you are looking for BIG BOTTOM sounding headphone these are not them. I use these at work, so I like headphones that do not block out the outside world. I am not a big fan of super booming bass either, I find these very clear and crisp in the high end. Good, comfortable headphones at a low cost.
great fit... secure... but heavy on the bass..........2007-11-30
they stay secure... they have no clip to secure cord to your shirt...
sound is a bit heavy on the bassy side... high range is a little lacking...
volume slider control on the cord is convient...
good but not great.......2007-11-27
When you find the perfect match (with the included rubbers) for your ears, these phones surely stay put! When I'm walking or running this fellas doesn't fall down, as opposed to normal earbuds.
The good points include the appropriate cord lenght, the volume control, the good fit, and the sound in the range of mids and highs. The bad (and killing) point is that the promised "bass boost" is almost non-existant, you must force the phones very hard into your ears to hear some good bass. If you don't mind the lack of bass, these are very good, and with the discount, it's a sure buy. But I suppose the quest for perfect phones goes on ...
Looking for Headphones to run with? These ARE NOT them.......2007-11-12
For whatever reason, normal 'ear bud' style headphones won't stay in my ears when i'm in motion. They tend fall out with the slightest movement, much less when I'm running. And since I enjoy listening to music when i'm working out, this has always been a little bit of an issue. So i was intrigued when i saw these Sennheisers - usually solid in the field of audio equipt - with 'twist-to-fit' plugs. Well, while the twist-in phones work okay - they do deliver what they promise in the sense that they WILL stay in your ear (although to do so, they have to be sort of wedged in, and can quickly become uncomfortable, not to mention they can create a sort of 'vacuum lock' seal over your ear canal...uggh) - but the other - sp. cable - aspect of the phones are TERRIBLY DESIGNED. After the cable splits, the length to your L&R ears is uneven - leaving you with a long and a short side??? Which might be practical if your ipod was say, being held parallel to your head like 10 feet away to one side and you really needed all of that extra foot of cable on one side. In a normal situation, however, it just hangs absurdly - this big loop under your chin - and tries to find a way to wrap itself around your neck. That's one issue. The other is that the entire length of the cable is way, WAY too long, to the point of being ridiculous. So now you've got to try and wrap all this extra cable around your ipod or whatever - which isn't really practical. And every time i try to put the damn thing away, this 5 foot freaking cable gets all tangled with the little rubber stoppers on the earphones and becomes like a rat's nest...uggh. I don't get it - all i wanted was the twist-in phones - leave everything else the same and don't try to re-invent the wheel here. But then some genius had to go and kind of ruin it by trying to get funky with some other design modifications - on the cable of all things...Anyway, packaged with some extra pieces so you can 'customize' your phones, but they are essentially aesthetic BS and don't actually have any real effect on the performance in any way.

it great!.......2007-10-25
this product is great it comes with lots of loops, and plenty of new instruments, it makes it alot easier to make hip hop beats.
Impressive array.......2007-10-06
With Garage Band's standard-issue synth patches and loops, it was hard to make new music without using the same sounds more than once. With these Jam Packs, I can get lost just finding loops to use - which is a really good thing! Definitely worth the money!
Product Description
The Sangean WR2 brings distant AM and FM stations to your door step through Sangean's advanced RF/IF electronic circuitry. The wood enclosure is acoustically balanced and the enhanced frequency response, front firing speaker provides rich, room filling sound. The acoustic bass compensation and 7 watt amplifier give this small radio a truly big sound. (Stereo FM is fed to the earphone jack). Advanced features include: large backlit LCD display, clock with alarm (radio or buzzer), bass compensation, auxiliary input jack, stereo headphone jack, 10 memory presets, F type antenna jack and RDS. Preset and clock values are automatically saved up to 30 minutes during power interruptions. Additionally, the WR2 comes with a full-featured infra-red remote control!
The WR2 has some very advanced features. The Radio Data System (RDS) displays short text messages on applicable FM stations. The upcoming Enhanced Other Network (EON) is also supported providing traffic information in some areas. The auto-clock-set function will derive the current time from the RDS signal of your local FM station (if you have RDS in your area). The clock may be set for 12 or 24 hour format. When rotating the volume control, the volume level (1-60) will be displayed. If you tape the the volume control once it becomes a full range Treble Control. Two taps converts it to a full range Bass Control. The tuning steps may be set to 9 or 10 kHz on the AM band and 50 or 100 kHz on the FM band. The radio will continue to run 6 minutes during a power failure and preset information will retained for about one hour. The back lighting may be set at 3 different levels of brightness, or turned off. Antenna System - External AM Antenna Terminal / External F Type FM Antenna Terminal Record Output - 3.5 mm mini stereo jack, monaural output 2.2K ohm Auxiliary Input - 3.5 mm mini stereo jack 47K ohm Variable Bass & Treble Controls Clock & Alarm (Radio/B
Amazon.com Product Description
Boasting an acoustically balanced wooden enclosure and an enhanced front-firing 3-inch speaker, the Sangean WR-2 tabletop radio offers the sound and features of a living room system in a cabinet that fits conveniently in a bedroom, kitchen, or garage. Any discussion of the WR-2 begins with its black wooden housing, which is rich in both appearance and tone. The cabinet's front surface features the speaker on the left side, a series of intuitively placed control buttons toward the bottom, and a generously sized LCD display in the middle with three brightness levels. More importantly, the cabinet teams with the 7-watt amplifier and the acoustic bass compensation system to add warmth and depth to the audio. Complementing the housing is Sangean's advanced RF/IF electronic circuitry, which picks up distant AM and FM stations and reproduces them with unmatched clarity, making music and even talk programs come alive.
Even though the WR-2 is advertised as an AM/FM radio, it offers much more than a standard digital tuner, including a Radio Data System (RDS) that displays short text messages on applicable FM stations, along with support for the Enhanced Other Network (EON) and its traffic information (available in certain regions). And unlike most tabletop radios, the WR-2 lets listeners adjust the treble and bass levels via the variable volume control. In its default mode, the rotary volume knob displays the volume level from 1 to 60. Tap it once, however, and it turns into a full-range treble control, and two taps creates a full-range bass control. Additional features include a clock with an alarm (radio or buzzer), an auxiliary input jack for connecting such devices as an iPod or MP3 player (both of which sound great through the speaker), a recording output jack, 10 memory presets that help you quickly find your favorite stations, and a full-featured infrared remote control.
A final bonus stems from the power backup function, which plays the radio for six minutes during a power failure (great for emergencies) and retains the memory preset and clock values for about an hour. The WR-2 measures roughly 9.5 by 4.5 by 6 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 5.5 pounds.
What's in the Box
WR-2 tabletop radio, detachable power cord, infrared remote control, user's manual.

My Single Favorite Radio.......2007-12-21
I own a dozen or more tabletop or portable radios (Super Radio II and III, Tivoli, Teac R2W, etc.) and the Sangean WR2 is easily my favorite. Reception on AM is a priority for me, and the WR2 is as good anything I own. FM reception is not quite as impressive, but better than most (I think the Tivoli might be a shade better on FM). But the WR2's features (RDS, remote, internal battery, adjustable brightness, alarms, etc.) help make it the best radio I own. Sound is impressive and it looks and feels like an expensive radio. If it had weather and TV bands it would be the perfect bedside radio, but as it is it comes awfully close.
Awesome Radio !.......2007-10-19
I bought this radio after several attempts to unclutter my surround sound system, it works awesome , sometimes you cant even notice that all the sound is coming from one speaker only, very good quality, nice dart vader black, buy it, you will like it.
Beautiful sound; long learning curve.......2007-09-28
If the end result is great sound then this is a winning product. But the design of the interface leaves a lot to be desired. In order to set an wake-up alarm you must push three button in a certain order. Unlike most clock radios, you can not wake to music that changes to a buzzer after a set period. Setting the sleep feature is also not straight forward. Now that I have been using it for a month, it has become easier but something I have to think about each time.
This product should be labeled a radio clock, not a clock radio. Again the sound quality for both AM and FM is superior, but I wanted a unit that is more user friendly on the clock functions. If you can overlook those short comings, it is worth the cost.
Everything's great but the ergonomics.......2007-09-14
This is a very solidly engineered unit. It performs well, looks good, and exudes quality. The controls aren't the most intuitive, though; the display, while attractive, could be more informative; and the operation manual could be user-friendlier. Still, the sound quality is good and the reception is beyond reproach. I'm very happy with the unit. Plus, it comes with a low-profile but comprehensive remote.
If I only lived in Europe.......2007-09-05
I must admit, it's a nice looking radio. However, I have no idea how it sounds since mine arrived with a European power cord and I live in the US. It's heading back to Amazon and hopefully the replacement arrives with the proper power cord.

Customer Reviews:
They're OK..........2007-12-20
but that's it, just OK. I wouldn't say they're any better than the iPod earphones. The bass is just average, the overall clarity is average. They're good for the price, however. And Sennheiser is a great company with solid products. I also own Etymotic er4 isolators, and they're far superior, but they cost well over $150.00. I guess for the price the MX51's do the job.
Very good entry level earphones.......2007-10-25
Very good entry level earphones and for the price probably the best. And for all the people who don't like IECs this is a very good option. Far far better than what iPod or creative mp3 players comes with by default. You must buy atleast these if not better ones if you at all care for quality in listening to music on portable players.
Not good..........2007-08-12
The set that I received had some noise coming from some wiring problems. I sent it back. I don't know if it happened that I received a defect or if this product has problems acroos the board.
What's there to say? They're headphones........2007-08-12
I am definitely satisfied with these earbuds. They deliver good sound without any distortion, even at higher volume levels. I did notice that sometimes the "enhanced bass" or whatever they call it, seems to detract a little bit from the other elements of the music that I'm listening to. It only took me a few minutes to readjust my EQ to fix it. :-D
Pretty Good.......2007-05-27
I bought these headphones recently to replace a second pair of Sennheiser mx450's, neither of which quite lasted out an entire year of my admittedly heavy usage. I thought I'd try moving up a notch on their product line, and decided against the violent green of the sports line.
As I understand (from doing a little product research), the tricky thing with earbud-style headphones is that getting a good sound depends a lot on how they fit into your ear. The mx51's are a little larger than other earbuds I've used, but I still needed the foam pads to get the fit right. Still, with too much exertion they jiggle out of place a little.
When they're in my ear right, the bass is excellent. Either the highs and mids are a little weak in comparison, or they're just dwarfed by the bass, I can't tell which. They're not bad, just not superb.
A few other things: they seem to draw more power -- that is, I have to turn my volume higher to get good sound from these. The cord is a good length, although it seems to have a perma-curl to it, and I like the flat-style connector, which I feel is less likely to break. Lastly, it's got a good pouch. My old headphones, like many other brands, had the wind-up case that's too much of a bother to ever use. These have a sort of silver module that lets you drop the delicate earbud parts in, pull a cover on, and wind the cord around the outside -- simple enough that I won't just toss my headphones into my bag as they are.
If you're looking for good-sounding earbuds, these are a fine choice. If you *really* care about bass, then I'd recommend them.

Sony Blank Media.......2007-10-24
Not one coaster; not one. That goes for both CD-R and DVD-R and I have burned over a thousand of both. Almost all of both are made in Taiwan, but the Sony brand quality persists. The only comparable brand is the more expensive Taiyo Yuden, which I also use. I use the Sonic RecordNow Plus software.
blank cd's.......2007-10-24
am using disks to record my old cassetes on to them. they are working out fine and sound good.
all right by me !!!.......2007-08-27
Sony makes a very reliable blank CD-R that can handle up to 80 minutes of music or 700 megabytes of data. Moreover, these blank CD-Rs are capable of recording data at high speeds. (I looked at one older Sony CD-R disc to help me write this review--would you believe it DIDN'T say the speed at which it records? Sorry!!!) The data I record onto these CD-Rs has now lasted for over three years, proving the test of time. I have used these as data discs and discs to record audio. I almost never got a coaster. Great!
The CD-R discs are compact and easy to store. While the discs are still blank, store them in the circular case on the spindle that they came in. After your burn data or music onto them, I would recommend storing them in slim jewel cases instead of paper sleeves. It's just better protection for your CD-Rs that have anything stored on them. Don't store these discs, burnt or blank, in rooms that become very hot; this causes damage to any brand of this type of disc and you could lose data over time.
There are two caveats that many other people note about any brand of this product: when you are burning the data onto the blank disc, don't be surprised if you see that the data is burning at a rate slower than the packaging advertises. This can happen if your burner doesn't have the capacity to burn faster, or it may be a quirk. I am not a professional so I cannot be certain of precisely what causes this phenomenon; but I assure you that the extra minute or two (tops) that you wait to get your CD-R completed is worth the wait. In addition, DON'T write on these using Sharpie ink pens. The ink can seep through the top coating of the CD-R disc and slowly but surely compromise your data--and you wouldn't want that, now would you? If you need to label the discs, label its' jewel case using a post-it note. At least that's what I do.
Overall, Sony blank CD-R discs store data reliably over the years and I believe that an extra minute to burn the data onto the blank disc is well worth it in the event that it doesn't actually burn at the very highest speed advertised.
Use them in good health!
What are you guys talking about?.......2007-05-31
These are the best CD-Rs that I have used. Of the many I have tried (Memorex, Imagine, etc) these are the only ones where the reflective surface doesnt start to bubble after a few months of sitting in my car (not in direct sunlight). Also, I have never had any problem burning to these cd's, and I am usually going at max speed for my burner.
I am not generally a big fan of Sony. This is the only product of theirs I will ever buy except for the Playstation, and that is only because there is no other platform to play the Final Fantasy games.

2) Headphones begin to hurt after continuos use, even after several attemps to strech them out
Other than those two problems, They are completely satisfactory for what they are listed as, and for the price. 3 stars given to two problems(in my eyes).
NOT GOOD.......2007-03-02
I HAD TO SEND THESE BACK AS THEY GOT TOO HOT TO KEEP ON MY EARS FOR ANY LENGTH OF TIME
Audio-Technica Headphones.......2007-01-15
Well, I've had a chance to use these for a while and allow my ears to calibrate. And I'd now say these are the PERFECT headphones to buy!! Great quality for the price, excellent sound. I thought they were a little "thin" at first, because everything seems to be so bass-heavy now days. But the more I listen, the more I appreciate the HONEST sound, the ACCURACY, the clear, open highs, and the rich, full, but transparent lows. With accurate, clear sound, your ears don't get fatigued - and you can listen longer. I've had Sennheiser, Sony and AKG headsets at work (I've worked at major L.A. radio stations for the past 20 years), and I think these are the best for the money - equaling the AKGs that cost more than twice as much. And the tiebreaker is, these are more comfortable on my head and on my ears than any of the others. I've really been discovering the quality and value of Audio-Technica stuff lately. I used to shop other brands first, but I'm going to make them the first ones to check from here on out. Get these headphones - they're very well built, and you'll be happy with them for a long time!
Headphones.......2007-01-07
For 50 bucks these headphones are a wonderful deal. Great sound quality for recording and just listening to music and movies on my laptop. They keep out a decent amount of noise. i watched movies on laptop while the other half of my house was being remodeled and I was not bothered by the racket. I find them very comfortable, however after a long time I notice they feel a little heavy, they squeeze a bit to keep out the noise so after an hour or so they start to push on your ears. They are not completely around your ear, they squish them a little bit. But the sound quality outweighs the anything bad. I would buy them again in an instant for even more.
The Range is great and the quality remains at high volume. I use them when practicing my electric guitar and it sounds amazing. Great buy.
Excellent True Sound .......2006-12-16
The ATH-PR05V are fantastic. I have been using them at work for extended number of hours each day. They are very comfortable for me (you may need to stretch them a little bit at the beginning) and the sound is excellent. They deliver a full frequency range of response. The sound is flat and true, without frequency boosts, so what you hear is what is recorded and not an artificial sound. That is, they do not add nor take anything away from the original recording. I have picked sounds with these headphone that other headphones (including some from Sennheiser, Grado, Sony) completely missed. In short, if you are looking for headphones with a lot of sound reproduction detail for not more than $60, consider these one. These headphones rock.
Other good alternatives between $50-$70 are Grado SR60 and Audio-Technica ATH-M40fs

The non-allergenic aluminum casing and the durable mineral crystal glass combined with a weatherproof leather band make it the ultimate tool for discerning boaters.
Amazon.com Product Description
Don't forget your life jacket or your Suunto Yachtsman next time you go sailing. This watch combines time and date functions with a barometer, compass, and sailing timer. The tough Yachtsman looks like a high-end wristwatch with a brushed aluminum case and mineral glass face. The body is black with a ring of silver around the dial and an oversized, backlit LCD screen.
The watch displays day, time, and date with three programmable alarms plus a stopwatch and countdown timer. But the Yachtsman really stands out in its combination of sailing timer, barometer, and compass functions. The sailing timer allows you to easily set the correct sequence and synchronize the timer with the race committee with the push of a button. Large numerals and audible warning signals let you concentrate more on maneuvering your boat in the swarming of the start while Suunto Yachtsman keeps you informed on up-coming critical moments. The race timer range of the stopwatch is 120 hours, and it features a countdown from 60 minutes. You can store 50 split times in the memory for later analysis.
The barometer allows you to measure the temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit, absolute pressure, and a difference measurement to follow changes in barometric pressure and temperature. The automatic four-day memory keeps track of atmospheric pressure. Another feature is the adjustable sea-level pressure function.
The Yachtsman's compass shows directional bearing in degrees and cardinal or half-cardinal point. There is a north-south arrow and a bearing tracking function that displays locked bearing, actual bearing, and the difference between these declination adjustments. The compass's bubble level indicates a level position to ensure accuracy within 2 or 3 degrees.
The Suunto Yachtsman is water resistant, tested to 100 meters/330 feet according to ISO 2281 standard, which means you can use it for swimming or other water sports activities--but it should not be used for scuba diving or freediving. The non-allergenic aluminum casing and the durable mineral crystal glass combined with a weatherproof band make it the ultimate tool for discerning boaters.
What's in the Box This package includes the Suunto Yachtsman wrist-top computer and printed operating instructions. It is covered by a one-year warranty.

the biggest watch I own..........2007-11-29
It's fairly large to say the least but doesn't seem too heavy. I have pushed the wrist side buttons a few times when moving my hand back.
The screen is big and easy to read in normal light, the thermometer is fairly useless when the watch is worn on the wrist as it always reads your wrist temperature rather than the air temperature. The backlight is not particularly bright so viewing in low light conditions is less than ideal.
The different modes are easy to navigate once you get the hang of it.
On a recent visit to a US city, the compass proved most useful in navigating the downtown area where the orientation became confusing.
The beeper for the sail timer is rather quiet but perhaps this will improve when I replace the battery.
Overall quite pleased but would like to have had a keylock, louder alarm and brighter backlight. (Leather strap would have been nice too as the metal case is great but the strap looks a bit cheap.)
Good Buy but be prepared!.......2007-01-19
This is a really good watch. The features are pretty handy - barometer, temperature, can store readings, etc.
The only concern is regarding the size of the watch. I gave it to my boyfriend for Christmas and that was the key thing he mentioned - it is really big. So I recommend seeing it beforehand.
So if you can live with the size, it's a good buy.
Excellent Regatta Watch.......2006-09-15
I have been looking for quite some time at different sailing watches. As a bowman, I compete quite heavily in sailing regatta's and have tried several different watches. I have now had this watch for a few months and I must admit it is the best watch I have ever used. It is very user friendly and has an excellent countdown timer. Having the temperature and pressure is nice, but okay... they are extras. It is a nice looking watch, good display, and very easy to use. I would highly recommend this watch for anyone who truly competes in sailing regatta's.
Spiffy but bizarre.......2006-07-08
I want to like this watch a lot, but I am having to admit that my inexpensive Timex Ironman (now at the bottom of Lake Michigan ticking away) did the basics better. The baro and compass features are cool, although I don't use them that much.
I find it odd that in "Time" mode it doesn't show the seconds digitally, instead preferring to show the day of week, month, and day of month. You can get it to show seconds by pressing one of the unlabelled and not particularly intuitive buttons, but only for ten seconds, then it's back to the day (or date, I can't remember which). I generally want to know seconds, not what month it is, on the race course. There is a 36 element ring that does some stuff as seconds elapse but it isn't easy to read at a glance.
The countdown timer is odd too. There is no repeat mode, which I used to set to five minutes and just let roll during starting sequences. Instead there is a one shot timer that, once started, it seems that no force in the universe can reset, although you can get it to jump (either up or down, I can't remember which) by pressing one of the buttons.
Finally, I am reasonably intelligent but I'm no good at this thing's interface. Navigating through functions involves pressing one of three buttons either once, twice in two seconds, or holding it down for two seconds. There doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason to when you do what.
In all, I'm disappointed with the lack of flexibility for displaying the time (you'd think they could splurge for a six digit display for the time, it is a watch, after all). The timer is "use it our way or not at all" as well. I could fight through the interface by reading the manual every night for a week, but really, it's not supposed to be that hard.
Very Unhappy with Watch.......2002-09-15
I have been sailing for some time now and received the watch as a long awaited sailing gift.
It is a little big, but I got over that very quickly. I had the watch for about 9 months and was preparing for an ocean voyage. I was looking forward to the compass feature. Two days before the voyage the compass went crazy and has not worked since.
The really annoying thing about the watch is the necessity to look "directly" into the face. If you look at an angle, you might see any array of numbers imaginable, fives are sixes or eighths, and ones become eleven. The date 9-15 becomes 8-16. It is really maddening.
I admit I haven't been back to the manufacture yet, but these problems should not occur to begin with.
Be advised.
