Bought a second one !
Pros: Liked the first one so much, when Newegg put it back on sale I bought another one for the bedroom. Contrary to many bluetooth speakers on the market, this one is stereo - I tested it (and the spec's here say 2 channels, and the manual says "stereo mode"). One surprise - the remote will control the songs when I'm bluetoothing from my laptop using Windows Media Player - pause/play, and songs forward/backward. And it's 25 feet away. Great sound (reminds me of the Wave Radio sound, but I don't have one to compare so don't hold me to that).
Cons: None really (plugs into to wall for power, not portable)
Uneven light
Pros: Gorgeous and big
Cons: Uneven light across the screen - thanks to Dixon and others below for pointing it out - it is very subtle (I had not noticed it) - but the left 3/4 is a little dimmer and yellowish, and the right 1/4 is brighter and blueish. This is not for a photographer needing full control in editing, but it will work for me on routine office work and viewing the occasional photo (plus I'm past my 30 days).
Overall Review: I'll keep it and generally enjoy it, but for $300 the light should be even. Hopefully I'll forget about it over time.
Works for me !
Pros: Bought this so I could transmit music over to the remote Panasonic SC-HC05 bluetooth speakers I bought here from Newegg. I've plugged it into the headphone jacks of a Windows 7 Laptop, a Nook, and an Android smartphone - they all worked just great (the speakers picked up the music). The Newegg write-up says 4 hours of transmission, the user manual insert says 8 hours, and I got 9 continuous hours of music transmission on my first charge. Sound quality seems OK (you can always use an equalizer if you want to modify it).
Cons: No cons come to mind
Overall Review: As they say, it is a bluetooth transmitter (not a receiver).
Great deal
Pros: Not too big, sturdy material, padded straps and back, good compartment for my 14" Dell laptop, extra padding on bottom exterior.
Cons: Make sure it is big enough for your needs. It is approximately 12" wide, 17" tall, and 5" deep (plus front compartment).
Overall Review: This is working well for me at school, as I don't have to carry too many books or binders.
Doing the job
Pros: Fairly quiet, nice single large fan, like the "X" shape with cutout sides for more ventilation
Cons: Still getting used to the elevated slope - it stands 1/2" at the front, and about 2" high at the back (plus the thickness of my laptop). Not a big problem though.
Overall Review: Very happy with this purchase - my Dell 14" laptop fan has not come on once since getting this cooler. Thanks Newegg for the Shell Shocker rebate deal!
Very good bulb
Pros: 5,000K bright cool "daylight" color (I don't like warm yellow light); many years of life; big energy savings; 270-degree light output is a plus (most LEDs are very directional); my box says 5 year warranty, and made in Taiwan
Cons: Not dimmable (says not on the box); box says "not intended for use with enclosed fixtures" (metal neck gets fairly warm)
Overall Review: Very happy so far - would buy more if they are on sale again
