Most Favorable Review

Panasonic 50PH9UK Plasma

Panasonic 50" 720p Plasma TV without TV tuner TH-50PH9UK
Panasonic 50" 720p Plasma TV without TV tuner TH-50PH9UK

Pros: Superb! Even better than the previous 8UK. Excellent PQ on SD or HD. Consumer models really don't compare in flexibility or PQ. Do some research and you will not be sorry. Comes with Component, Svideo, Composite and VGA inputs, HDMI & DVI available. Just pay for what you need with ability to change at later date if needed. Great Bargain.

Cons: Some see lack of Speakers (has internal amp) and Stand as Con, really it's an advantage. They are available if you want them but you don't pay for them if not needed.

Overall Review: A little mixup on shipping but Newegg and AIT resolved it quickly and received product perfect in condition in less than a week. Can't say enough about the service fron Newegg. Have bought from them scores of times and never dissatisfied in anyway. Wish they could run the government!

Team 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model TLD316G1600HC10ADC01

Pros: Good price. Work as well as any. Booted at correct speed. Handle reasonable overclocks at stock voltage. Nicely finished. Run cool. What more could you want?

Cons: None what so ever.

Overall Review: Not a top brand and 1st time I have tried them but see no differences to other often more expensive brands.

No problems at all !

Pioneer Black 12X BD-R 2X BD-RE 16X DVD+R 8X BD-ROM 4MB Cache SATA Blu-ray Burner BDR-206DBKS

Pros: Works perfectly for me. No problems with included software. It plays Bluray disks perfectly. I don't know what all the fuss is about the software. It works without upgrading or costing anything Xtra. Fine drive ...quiet, no coasters. What more could you want. Bargain.

Cons: Not that I have found and have used alot.

Best Remote I have ever used

URC RFS200 Universal Infrared / RF MasterControl PowerPak
URC RFS200 Universal Infrared / RF MasterControl PowerPak

Pros: Extreme range for both IR and RF. Works on everything I have tried TV's DVR's, DVD's, Blu-Ray and even Windows Media Center computer. Literally changes how equipmnent works....changed Comcast DRV from a slow unresponsive slug to very fast. Thought it was the box...just the junk standard remote. Tremendous signal strength on both IR & RF. Just too many pros to list.

Cons: Takes a little while to get used to it as it replaces a bunch of remotes but that comes quickly and it is so superior it is really not a con.

Overall Review: I can't say enough about the quality and functionality of this remote. Best piece of tech gear I have purchased in a long, long time. Thanks URC you did a great job. If you buy this you will not be sorry.

Great Product & Tiny

EDIMAX EW-7811Un 150 Mbps Wireless IEEE 802.11b/g/n Nano USB Adapter
EDIMAX EW-7811Un 150 Mbps Wireless IEEE 802.11b/g/n Nano USB Adapter

Pros: Tiny size. Better range than adapters much larger, even with antennas on them. Simple installation. Not a problem on 2 laptops. Best range and signal strength of any adapter I have ever tried, many! Completely solved problem... good signal now in all parts of large 3 story house.

Cons: I cannot think of any.

Overall Review: Installed using supplied driver disk, which is rather slow..just wait it out. Used on Win 7 32 and Win 64 on 2 laptop without a problem. Works better (longer range, higher signal strength and faster thruput) than any adapter I have tried, more than 6. Using with Netgear 300n router. Also picks up signal from 7 other nearby networks. Amazing product without regard to size. Considering size really hard to believe! Perfect.

Best Web Cam Ever

Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 2.0 M Effective Pixels USB 2.0 WebCam
Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 2.0 M Effective Pixels USB 2.0 WebCam

Pros: Without a doubt the best I have ever had out of probably 15. Works with Win 7 64 bit perfectly. Best picture quality I have ever seen on a WC. Software has many, many options. Auto brightness works perfectly. Color is superb. Still photos are very high quality. I don't know how you would improve on this thing!

Cons: I don't know of any. Logitech software is always huge but that's not a problem these days.

Overall Review: It works great with Skype and every other program I have tried. Logitech software has some really neat, if strange, capabilities. Making a video call as a cat is interesting, I guess. May be the next version will include voices for all the calling avatars.
