Buying ZAGG invisibleSHIELD for Apple iPad (Full Body)


Just got my full body invisible shield kit for my ipad. I ordered mine from Zagg. I've never used Zagg products before so I didn't know what to expect. I have installed several types of skins on ipods and iphones so my friends come to me for installation so I do have some experience working with film protectors. The product arrived in a tube. Came with the front and back films, a spray bottle of some unknown chemical substance, and a poorly molded rubber scraper, extremely poor instructions. What they should have disclosed is that your ipad will get wet and you could run the danger of shorting out the electronics if water gets into the speakers or the holes surrounding the buttons. I watched their video on utube and it was not helpful so it did not prepare me for the the installation nightmare. I had the chemical substance all over my ipad and kitchen table. The die cuts on the shields are pretty poor so i had to rip it from the backing which caused it to stretch and not fit the area properly. Here are my complaints:
1. No disclosure that you will get your ipad wet and potentially cause damage which could cause you to void your ipad warranty.
2. Horrible instructions on how to use the tool, chemical substance and how to properly apply to an ipad.
3. Poorly manufactured rubber scraper tool. The molding on this tool is extremely poor. I showed to my friend who is a QA inspector and they were shocked at how poor the tool was molded.
4. No disclosure of the substance in the bottle. Is it hazardous to children and pets? If droplets got on the my table will it be harmful to my family?
5. the die cut of the shields to the backing is poor such that you will stretch it and it won't fit the surface properly. Stretching will also cause the adhesive to separate from the shield leaving lumps of adhesive between the ipad and the shield. Very ugly.

Bottom line. Buy something else. I'm going to get my money back.Get more detail about ZAGG invisibleSHIELD for Apple iPad (Full Body).

Cheapest Logitech USB Desktop Microphone


For all the praise this gets, it broke within 4 months. The sound is average, very easy to setup and use. But its lack of reliability caused me to miss several podcasts. I will not buy this product again. 3 stars, nothing more. For [...] bucks it should last a bit longer.Get more detail about Logitech USB Desktop Microphone.

Discount Verbatim 95310 8.5 GB 2.4x- 6x Double Layer Recordable Disc DVD+R DL, 20-Disc Spindle


I have tried about every disc (DVD+R,DL) available and every batch had bad discs, with some over half failed. With Verbatim every single disc worked perfectly. I had already found this to be true with regular, single layer discs. Out of approx 400 Verbatim discs, NOT ONE failed! The only problem is finding them. I used to find them in stores but now it's pretty much online only. Strangely I found them recently at the most unlikely place: Big Lots! I bought them out, about 400 discs and every one burned perfectly. Now it looks like it's online, but I'm more than willing to wait a few days for the only DVD disc worth buying.Get more detail about Verbatim 95310 8.5 GB 2.4x- 6x Double Layer Recordable Disc DVD+R DL, 20-Disc Spindle.

Save Apogee HDMI 3x1 Mini Switcher v1.3b Full HD 1080p - 25m Amplified with External IR Receiver Remote Control


For the price, there's no arguing that the Apogee HDMI Switcher is one of the best products on the market for this purpose. This item gets the job done with little or no fanfare, but then again, it's just a switch! The addition of the IR receiver and remote put this item over the top. Considering that most comparable items cost nearly twice the price, there's few reasons to consider anything other than the Apogee HDMI Switcher. I did read several comments that the only downfall to this item is the lack of advanced features such as the ability to adjust video levels between the inputs, but with the the advancement of HDMI technology, I don't think this is much of an issue. So, if you need an HDMI switch for 3 or less sources, I highly recommend this product.Get more detail about Apogee HDMI 3x1 Mini Switcher v1.3b Full HD 1080p - 25m Amplified with External IR Receiver Remote Control.

Low Price OEM Dell Ac Adapter Laptop Charger for Dell INSPIRON ,Dell XPS ,Dell Studio, Dell Latitude ,Dell Vostro, P/N PA-10 PA10 90w 90 watt Genuine/Original/OEM Portable Charger for Laptop Notebook Computer Battery Charger Power Supply Cord Plug


This is the third power adapter I've purchased for my Dell laptop. The first (new with the laptop) failed rather unfortunately due to a combination of user error and ambient humidity. I still have the second, a non-OEM device purchased online for ~$10. I was satisfied enough with the non-OEM charger until the socket for the AC cord failed. The power cord would fall out of the transformer with little or no provocation, which resulted in premature failure of my battery. I replaced it with this OEM charger and am very satisfied.Get more detail about OEM Dell Ac Adapter Laptop Charger for Dell INSPIRON ,Dell XPS ,Dell Studio, Dell Latitude ,Dell Vostro, P/N PA-10 PA10 90w 90 watt Genuine/Original/OEM Portable Charger for Laptop Notebook Computer Battery Charger Power Supply Cord Plug.

Because I use only genuine Canon ink cartridges, I of course came to Amazon to check on the prices.

Kingston 2 GB microSD Flash Memory Card with SD and miniSD Adapters SDC/2GB-2ADP This instant


QUICK SUMMARY: Amazon Prime customers especially will find this microSD card to be a good value with the included adapters. The item works, is competitively priced, and arrives in two days for free if you're a Prime customer. Recommended!

Background: I bought a new Garmin eTrex Vista HCx Color High-Sensitivity Mapping Handheld GPS to use this summer. This GPS can take a microSD card to store map data, but that's a separate purchase. After spending a lot of time looking at my options, I chose this item because: 1) It's competitively priced, 2) 2GB of data storage will hold the road maps for all of North America, and 3) I get the item shipped for free in two days because I'm an Amazon Prime customer.

Performance: It works; not much else to say. I especially liked that this item came with the microSD card adapters, which I won't likely use with my GPS microSD card, but which I can use to swap data back-and-forth with my cell phone, which also uses a microSD card. It's handy to have a few adapters like this lying around so you've got one when you need one.

Conclusion: Great value, competitively priced, fast shipping, Amazon-backed customer service makes this product a real winner. Recommended!Get more detail about Kingston 2 GB microSD Flash Memory Card with SD and miniSD Adapters SDC/2GB-2ADP.

Cheapest RiteAV - Cat5e Network Ethernet Cable - Blue - 100 ft.


Long sturdy cable.
Jacket seems a little light and flimsy, but it was very cheap, conductors are probably not shielded.
There are not any markings on the cable or packaging to indicate that its up to cat5e standards, but it seems good enough to me!
I use this cable with a cheap set of usb extenders to download pictures from a remotely mounted camera at basketball games, and this setup works well enough.
Mine came rolled up and twisty tied inside a sealed bag and box

Buy AmazonBasics USB 2.0 A-Male to A-Female Extension Cable (3.3 Feet / 1.0 Meter) [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging]


Absolutely love this USB extension cable. I bought this to go along with rest of the gear and USB accessories in my everyday courier/laptop bag. It's always nice to have an extension cable if the need arises, especially if most of your accessories (and this applies to 99% of them, in my experience) come with 2" cables.

Most of the time the cables that come with your USB accessories (hubs, flash drives, cameras, card readers, MP3 players, etc.) are sufficient, but every so often it's a real pain. Case in point, try putting your digital camera or card reader on a desk somewhere when you're using a floor-based desktop/tower and have only a two-inch cable. Yeah, not fun.

In any case, I've wanted to find a high quality, mid-length extension cable for quite some time and this one definitely does the job. The quality is top notch, the logo is nicely done (and thankfully not tacky or over the top) and the 3.3 foot length is just right. If you're in the market, I highly recommend these.Get more detail about AmazonBasics USB 2.0 A-Male to A-Female Extension Cable (3.3 Feet / 1.0 Meter) [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging].

-Laptop died and this was the cheapest replacement I could find.
-Works perfectly.
-Where the cable enters the laptop, it does a 90* turn instead of staying straight like the original. This is preferable imo.
-Shipped the next day and the two-day shipping was right on time.
-I measured the lengths of the two cables. This replacement is 2 feet shorter.
-Operates considerably hotter than the original.
-The actual brick is smaller. Less surface area for removing heat = hotter brick?
