Best cordless in the market!!!!!!, July 31, 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Panasonic KX-TG6532B Digital Cordless Phone with Answering System, Black, 2 Handsets (Office Product)

I have had this phone for a month and I really want to write a review because the detail description doesn't tell us any thing much but it actually has a lot of features that other companies do not make. I owned many cordless phones so far but this is far better than others.

1. The phone uses the AAA rechargeable batteries NiMH. It can be replaced with any AAA NiMH batteries. I replaced mine with the higher capacity of NiMH batteries so it lasts even longer. The phone claims for 13 hours talk time. I never clock when I talk but it lasts very long time. And unlike other brands that we have to use only the manufacturer's batteries made for that phone.

2. Headphone Jack.....Bingo!! Finally I found a cordless phone with a headphone jack. Again no other brands make it and I don't know why but here I got it. It works absolutely perfect with a Panasonic headset. Sound is very clear.

3. Battery indicator.....My Vtech phones show a level of battery only while it's being charged but this Panasonic, the indicator shows the battery level all the time.

4. It speaks the phone number out loud when there is an incoming call.

Bottom line because of the first two reasons above, this will be my last cordless phone I ever bought since the batteries can be replaced with the regular rechargeable AAA NiMH. Highly recommended!!!!!!!!!!!!

UP DATE: Nov 21, 2010

Just bought one more for other in the family. After 4 months of usage it has proved that this is the greatest cordless phone as I expected. Never disappointed me. Using regular rechargeable AAA means Saving Money!!

I use this phone with Panasonic headset every day.

I have had this phone for about 1 week. The 1st thing I did was charge both handsets for about 8hrs(do not unplug your old phone until these are fully charged). This phone is extremely easy to setup and program, it took me longer to write down all the numbers from my old phone. I did not even have to use the manual to program. Once that was done I flipped thru the manual and it has a ton of quick codes if you do not feel like going thru the menu on the handset. I love the call block feature, even though I am on the no call list I still get annoying telemarketing calls. The lighted keypad and being able to access VM via handset is fantastic. The talking caller ID is ok, I have to laugh b/c the automated voice sounds funny when someone calls and they have a hard to pronounce name but you have the option to turn it off if you want. It has some interesting ring tones. The sound is very clear but I have noticed if the volume is up to high I get a bit of echo/feedback from my TV and voices of other people in the room with me(hence the 4 stars). I usually keep the volume low anyway but my son had used it earlier and had it cranked all the way up. If you are hard of hearing and have to put the volume all the way up you may not even notice it. It states battery performance is 13hrs continuous talk time or 11dys standby, I can't comment on this b/c I put it back on the base every night before I go to bed. It also has a icon on screen to see the battery level which I absolutely love, my old phone would just start to beep and you had about 5 beeps to run and get the other handset before it died. I also like that it uses rechargeable AAA batteries. Overall this is a really nice phone and I feel the size of the handset is just right not to big, not to small.

UPDATE***
10/3/2010

I have had no problems with these phones. I left the handset off the base to see how long it would hold a charge and it is about 7 days with daily use. It was down to 1 bar on the battery icon and it had not began to blink so I am guessing I could have gone another 2 days before needing to charge. I have really grown to love this phone and its many features but I especially love being able to block unwanted calls. Also some more info on the talking caller ID, if you have the # programmed in the phone it will say the name you have programmed in w/it, for example when my daughter calls and it says her 1st name even though the caller ID comes up under mine and her dad's name.

UPDATE****
10/18/11

Well is has been a year and I am still loving this phone, I added another handset to it and it was a breeze to sync up with base. Battery life is going strong. So glad I bought this.

This review is from: Panasonic KX-TG6532B Digital Cordless Phone with Answering System, Black, 2 Handsets (Office Product)

I have had several of Panasonic's phones over the last eight or more years. The last one we had was color screen and bells and whistles that although pretty to look at took away some of the functionality of the phone. Specifically, when you use a color screen it eats up memory and can cause issues with holding a charge.

The title of this says it all. The new phone I have had ab out a month perhaps 6 weeks is truly better, more functional, holds more names, and the screen although not color is much easier to see and use because the lettering is larger and the blue lettering on a whitish blue surface is a winner.

One other very important point; I bought the plus version of this phone. There are two versions. The other is less expensive and does not have the range nor clarity of this unit. It is well worth the extra $10.00 or so dollars.

The contrast and the appearance in general is very pleasing. The bells and whistles are still there and more but they are much easier to get at as they useful. 50 names and numbers. Sound functions and musical rings are better. The sound quality is fantastic and the ability to set the volume while is use is great. There is nothing worse than a ring that is not wanted and no way to change it. You can do both and easily to boot.

I had to come back because I missed one of the most if not the most important additions to this and all Panasonic phones of recent make. The dial and phone are lighted so it is easy and functional in the dark. I add this because all previous models did not have the lighted keypad, phone. This is an incredibly useful feature.

One last point, It is expandable up to six phones

I gave it 5 out of 5 stars because of the price but also because of how much better and functional it is compared to any other phone I have used and believe me we have used a lot of different phones so to say of all the phones we have had this is the best it is not said lightly.

I would grab this without hesitation as long as what you want is a phone that does what you want when you want it and you do not care to have pretty pictures in place of the excellent sound, appearance and all around usefulness of this Panasonic phone.

Complex synergy of fragrances quite intriguing, March 20, 2011

Mysterious Microburst "Apocryphal Raven" (Mohave County, AZ) -

This review is from: Relaxation Synergy Blend Essential Oil- 10 ml (Lavender, Marjoram, Patchouli, Mandarin, Geranium & Chamomile) (Misc.)

Undiluted oil comes on strong, with first impression of strong citrus/earth with a breakdown of "notes" which is fascinating. I was sniffing my wrists every hour or so and each time came back with another part of the blend dominating. This complexity is olfactory fun, like a story unfolding in scent.

Thus, it is recommended for those who are put off by an initially potent scent do as Edens Gardens suggests: dilute. Use jojoba or grapeseed oil. I'm tempted to add it to shea butter and wax some unfinished wood, just to keep the scent around me. The blend creates emotions of cleanness and clarity in my sensory realm.

To the person who wrote the one-star review: I suspect you did not dilute the oil. Then there are people who cannot handle strong scents and those whose body chemistry will not meld well with some oils, even when diluted properly. For example, oak moss smells delicious on me but sandalwood (and I've tried many) tends to develop an unpleasant "fishy" note. When I blend sandalwood with a bit of amber resin, this eliminates the fish problem.

How an oil smells on your skin can be modified according to medications you take, whether you smoke cigarettes and whether you are a carnivore, vegetarian or vegan. There are many variables in the chemistry of scent, which is why there is no "one size fits all" oil, blend or perfume.

I'm having fun with this oil and am impressed with the quality for such a low price.

Not without flaws, but certainly more than just a glorified iPod Touch!, April 16, 2010

Scott Showalter "purefusion" (Ohio, USA) -

This review is from: Apple iPad (first generation) MB292LL/A Tablet (16GB, Wifi) (Personal Computers)

Having spent some serious time with Apple's iPad since its release, it's easy to see how the device can stir up so much excitement and so much disappointment from all different angles with much less middle-ground. People tend to either love it or hate it. I hope I can shed some light on the details of real-world iPad usage, not just blind claims like several non-iPad users seem to be screaming. I'll detail all the benefits and the caveats of owning the device I've found so far, with hopes that you'll get a clear picture of whether or not the iPad really is for you.

For those interested, I've also compiled two iPad listmania lists:

Must-Have iPad Accessories:
http://www.amazon.com/lm/R1M3AJDBR2BCA7?tag=1pad-20&ie=UTF8

iPad vs. Other Tablets:
http://www.amazon.com/lm/R3QLZ307253XU6?tag=1pad-20&ie=UTF8

===== Background and Initial Reaction =====

I'm a mobile app developer who's created apps and games for the iPhone, iPod Touch and now iPad. Leading up to the announcement of the iPad, several rumors surfaced about Apple's new tablet device within iPhone development circles. The big rumor was that it would likely be based on the iPhone OS (the operating system built for the iPhone/iPod Touch). I had a lot of mixed feelings about that though. Part of me wanted the iPad to be able to run standard Mac apps (which the iPhone OS simply cannot do), while the other part of me saw the potential for app developers to take full advantage of the iPad's bigger screen and multi-touch interface on a whole new level, as iPhone/iPad apps generally aren't available for the Mac or PC specifically. What this meant for future iPad users was the potential to do more with the iPad than you would be able to do with an ordinary Mac or PC, though there would be some compromise therein until Apple or other developers could create an app that would fill any gaps in functionality.

When announced, I was fairly critical about how similar the iPad was to the iPod Touch. Indeed it does seem like an oversized iPod Touch, especially with the overly huge icons (and excessive spacing between them) on the home screen. Only 4 additional apps per-screen are permitted on the iPad (24 total) than the iPod Touch (20 total). But while iPad isn't without flaw, nor is it a complete laptop or desktop replacement by any means, it's still certainly more than just a glorified iPod Touch. After spending some time with it, the differences quickly become evident.

Neither is it a "Kindle killer" though it is certainly a great e-reader that will have a lasting effect on the future of digital books and publications. Moreover, there is a definite potential for the device to be useful beyond everything it is currently being touted as by Apple. Consider what the iPhone can do now compared to its first version with nothing but Apple's standard iPhone apps (before the app store was created).

===== First Impression =====

Taking the iPad out of the box for the first time, you'll come to realize just how touch-worthy the device really is. The slick screen reflects your glossy-eyed likeness as you gaze upon it and inhale in that one-of-a-kind scent synonymous with brand-new electronic gadgetry. Wrapping your hand around your new baby to embrace it for the first time, you find new meaning to the term "baby" because the back feels smooth like a baby's butt. And there's no doubt that this is exactly how Apple wants you to feel when unboxing the iPad for the first time.

Right away, you'll probably notice that it's heavier than you might expect for such a slim device. For a real-world reference, the weight is comparable to that of two 200-page magazines (or 400 pages). Why so heavy? This thing's got two massive batteries which give it that touted 10 full-hours of life with wifi, though I got eight full hours out of constant Netflix streaming. Either way though, such a great battery life is something the iPhone/iPod Touch can't, uh... touch! Another contributor is Apple's signature glass touch-screen. However, the glass screen is phenominal at preventing scratches and ensures the display will always be crystal clear... at least until you lay your greasy mitts all over it.

Smudging of finger oils is an issue with just about any touch screen device, but the iPad is special. It has an "oleophobic" coating that should repel the greasy smears, streaks and fingerprints. After using it a majority of the first day, it became evident that the coating doesn't work 100%. It resisted much better than the iPod Touch, which has no such coating, but you can expect there will still be some traces of oil residue from the skin contacting the screen. Washing your hands frequently helps reduce this, but you'll really only notice it if you try to notice it (by either reflecting light off the screen, or turning the screen off). So ultimately your experience interacting... Read more

Everyone wants things to be simpler, and along comes this simple thing., May 11, 2010

Just Trying to Help "Product Guru" (USA) -

The main difference between this item, and the wi-fi only version, is of course the sim card with 3G. So, before I talk about the iPad in general, I'd like to explain my take on the 3G.

3G Performance:
The BOTTOM LINE: Works good as long as you aren't using it in a moving car. I ran an internet speed test on it and in the metro area it was 1.2Mbps down and 210kbps up, which is decent.
The DETAILS: If you are doing basic computing, you will be able to be anywhere within a 3G service area to enjoy the internet. (If 3g service sucks in your area, don't buy an iPad 3g) Here is the only problem: when you pass from tower to tower the signal can hang as the data has to be rerouted to the new tower. Lets put this another way. If you are using the iPad netflix app to stream "Kim Possible season 3" videos to your iPad while driving at 60 MPH it will "hang" during the 22 minute show. In summary: The AT&T 3G works the same as my 3G expresscard from Verizon.

2G Performance: Yes, you can use your iPad on AT&T's 2G EDGE network as needed. The data is slow. You won't enjoy it.

3G setup:
3G setup is simple:
- press settings button, choose cellular data, press set up cellular service.
- put in your *iTunes* password. (AT&T is "invisible" except for a logo.)
- put your credit card into the iPad
- voila! you have service for 30 days
Its very slick and takes less than a minute. Its how it should be.

Avoiding the 3G data charges: If you are an iPhone user, and you have an iPad, you can avoid paying for 2 data plans by swapping sim cards. Of course, you might miss a few calls while your sim is in the iPad because the iPad doesn't support phone calls. If you have an older iphone: Older iPhones use large SIM cards and the ipad uses small microSIM cards. You would have to cut your large sim card down to the microsim size, and put it in your iPad (you will need a needle to pop it out). You would need to buy a little adapter (sold on the internet) to make your small sim fit back into your iPhone (so, buy the adapter first!) But this isn't a great long term solution, because, if you want to use the iPad as a GPS in the car you will not be able to use your phone quickly or easily until you switch them back out again. Here it is on Amazon: Microsim Adapter for Ipad Iphone4g Convert Micro Sim to Regular Sim Adapter

DO YOU WANT THE 3G INTERNET?
Despite my little princess being vexed at Kim Possible hanging, the answer is yes. Certainly, its wonderful to have the 3G access. Everything about the iPad works better because its a bigger screen, and being able to access the internet (almost) anywhere is very, very useful for me.

Now, the question begs to be asked: why the ipad at all?
I have to say I originally joined the legion of pundits who said "hey, its just a big ipod touch" and "it won't replace my laptop". Certainly, this has to be the two most common things you hear people say about the ipad, right? And yes, that can be the truth you choose.

iPad vs. Laptop: If your idea is to buy an iPad to replace your laptop, and get an external keyboard, and a docking station, and bla bla bla... then you will be disappointed. This is a different kind of device, and you can't put a square peg in a round hole. The iPad is for even more mobile computing than a laptop can provide. ***A laptop needs a desk. But the iPad doesn't.*** Thats the point, and if its not compelling for you, then consider carefully before buying an iPad.

iPad vs. iPod Touch: To say its just a big iPod touch is not really fair. The processor is much more powerful, allowing you to do a LOT MORE. You also get a big screen. And the 3g with this version. So to refuse to upgrade from the ipod Touch is similar to refusing to upgrade from a Kia Rio on the grounds that all other cars do the same thing.

But the biggest reason the iPad+3G will work for you, is that after a few weeks with it, you will want learn how to make it work for you. You will *enjoy* using it and it will be easier to use. You will say "how can I change what I do so I can do it on the iPad" not "how can the iPad do exactly what I did before".

For an example: here is a day with the iPad.
I get up in the morning, and if I'm not being lazy, I get on the treadmill. I prop the ipad up on the treadmill while I walk. I watch some news video on the iPad, read some email, play a game, catch up on facebook. I'm usually not done with this after my walk, so I head downstairs. Its like carrying a magazine, its so easy. I bump into my daughter in the hall and show her a picture from her Grandmother, with the iPad securely held in only one hand. While I'm eating breakfast, and... Read more

A leap in the right direction, April 3, 2010

Craig Whisenhunt -

I've now spent the better part of a day playing with the new iPad, and while it excels in many things there are still some things anyone considering buying one should probably keep in mind.

First the good sides:

This thing is very fast, opening and closing applications is quick, the screen is incredibly responsive, there is no lag while typing, and the built in Safari browser does a great job of quickly loading even graphic intense pages.

The not so good sides:

As has been thoroughly pointed out, there is not presently much in the way of multitasking within the iPhone OS, but with most expectations pointing towards a summer release of OS 4.0 this might be remedied by mid summer, and almost certainly by a generation 2 release. That said, it should be kept in mind that on such a little screen being able to view multiple applications at once will likely never be something you'll use, and the speed by which you can open and close applications makes this less a headache than you might think. It isn't as fast as moving between open apps, but it isn't a deal breaker by any means. The lack of a camera in this generation is a little surprising, while I've purchased my iPad already, I honestly believe that with the number of competitors expected over the course of 2010 we're probably going to see a generation 2 by Christmas with a camera. It's still an amazing device, but the ability to video chat with it would definitely put it over the top, that's a feature worth waiting for. The lack of Flash support isn't as irritating as I expected it to be, but still something to consider. Many major sites have evolved to html5, or are in the process of doing so. This allows for full viewing by the Safari browser, and where it exists, it works great. The remaining sites still using Flash show up with annoying little boxes looking for a plugin that is likely never going to exist. If you spend a lot of time on flash heavy sites it really probably is worth considering holding out to see how the Slate/Android Tablets look in a few months, but if you're mostly just e-mailing and checking facebook (no Farmville) the lack of Flash support probably won't bother you too much.

As a laptop replacement:

The inclusion of the iWorks utilities gives this device a little bit of a laptop personality. Don't let that persuade you into believing that you don't need a computer though. You might be able to get away with ditching a laptop if all you really do is e-mail or very light word processing, but if you do anything more than that you'll like the freedom and ease a full computer offers for more complex tasks. That said, this device is a tremendous leap towards a future tablet style device that may very well be a replacement for your computer, but for now it is more of a casual use device than something you can really expect to do substantial work with. I have put together a presentation in keynote, which was easy enough to do, but pages isn't as intuitive as I'd have liked, and taking lengthy notes or writing long letters/e-mails/reports will probably make it worth considering buying either the keyboard dock or the wireless bluetooth keyboard.

Battery life seems to live up to the claims, I managed to get about 7 hours before getting the 20% remaining battery life indication, which puts it about right for 10 hours or so of total use. One very important thing to realize about charging the device is that presently (at launch) there is some issues with charging via USB from many computers. The iPad is different than other iPod products, it requires a bit more power to charge up, and unfortunately most USB ports aren't set up to support that higher power draw. This is something that may be fixed in a firmware update to allow for a slower charge, or it may simply be that you'll need to either rely on a new Mac (seems like they can handle the power issue) or rely on the wall charger. Just don't be surprised if you plug it into your computer and it doesn't show that it is charging.

All in all, the iPad is an impressive device that might make for a reasonable replacement of a netbook for casual users. For people who need something to really do a lot of work on, you may find that for the price that a netbook or laptop still offers the better value for your needs. Future generations of this device will probably transition into fitting that market better than this first generation. However, if you're an avid reader, casual gamer, music fan, who doesn't do much more on the web than check a few sites, and e-mail. This thing is definitely worth considering! If you're on the fence, nothing about this product is so incredible as to justify running out and buying one right now, but it is worthy of your consideration if you're thinking you might like a tablet style device. I definitely would encourage you to go play with one at best buy or an apple... Read more

I would not recommend the stainless steel version. The biggest problem is the sound they make when they rub together... it's pretty annoying. This noise is just about as loud as the chimes inside, so instead of hearing a soothing chime sound, you mostly hear the scraping. I was also a little disappointed to see that the surface isn't perfect. There were a couple of very minor dents and noticeable scratches/imperfections on them. Consider getting an enameled set instead (one of the sets with a painted design on it). I own an enameled set and they barely make any scraping noise at all, so it is much easier to hear the chimes. Also, the slight amount of texture makes them easier to hold on to and I think it feels much better. Lastly, pay close attention to the size you're getting. It makes a big difference. I'm a guy with average sized hands and this size was a little smaller than I'd like--I prefer 1.85-2" diameter.

This review is from: #3 Stainless Steel Chinese Healthy Exercise Massage Metal Balls (Health and Beauty)

I was given some exercise balls a few years ago as a gift but they were too large for my hands. I have arthritis in both hands and needed the exercise but the ones I had made it worse. I thought I'd give another try with a smaller size. These looked nice on my computer and the price was good so I thought I'd give them a try. I'm glad I did.

I ordered them on a Sunday and the seller shipped the same day by USPS. I received them Thursday. The little box is just like the picture and the exercise balls are as pictured too. What the seller doesn't mention is that they have a tiny chime. My big #4 exercise balls have a loud chime but this seems much better to me as it is mildly entertaining and doesn't interfere.

The stainless steel is smooth and slick so the balls roll easily against each other and my hands are getting the exercise I need.
