Most Critical Review

Not as good as I hoped.

Pros: Big, and BRIGHT! The stand is quite good. As a matter of fact, it is practically as good as a Neo-Flex VESA stand I purchased seperately for another monitor. It tilts, swivels, and pans very well. The passive 3D works great for movies. I am not particular about the 3D, so I cannot say its the best or the worse, but it is good enough for me. I personally prefer the light polarized 3D glasses to active shutter glasses. What works in the iMax works great for me at home.

Cons: Low refresh rate of 60Hz. For use in an office setting, the text is disappointing. It is not as sharp and crisp as I am use to, so this was a real bummer. If you are a writer or spend a lot of time reading, you may want to consider something with a better display. The 3D is nice, but that isn't enough to blind me to poor 2D text performance, which for me is far more important.

Overall Review: This is a budget entry into the 27" IPS 3D world. Is you want a huge, affordable, 3D monitor then this is a great choice. However, if you need sharp, crisp text then you may want to look elsewhere, save $100, and buy a much better 2D monitor.

SanDisk Cruzer 32GB Flash Drive (USB2.0 Portable) SDCZ36-032G-A11

Pros: Large Capacity

Cons: This thing is painfully slow. I'm not just talking about transferring huge amounts of data at once. It is slow by any standard. As a matter of fact, I find that many small files make it much slower. Granted, you can't take windows status window to seriously, but I have hit speeds as low as 56k/Sec. This thing is painful to use. Sorry, but Sandisk blew it with this one.

Overall Review: The person that called this thing 'quick' must be one some good meds...
