Sweet
Pros: Small in size, large in capacity. Not a lot of bloatware. You can delete the pre-installed.
Cons: Price went up quite a bit since I bought it.
Overall Review: I bought this for $xxx. Was on sale for $xxx - $20 before I even received it. Emailed Customer Service. They credited me for the $20. Thanks Newegg 'Rose'!

Pros: See above
Cons: See above
Overall Review: I decided to come back. Gave it four stars first time. The warranty issue really bothers me.
OK, not great
Pros: Fits, my hand, better than most mice.
Cons: Battery(s) should last longer. Mouse feet wear off too quickly.
Overall Review: This is really a $39 mouse in a $99 package.
Nice little drive
Pros: Small form factor. Will fit in a shirt pocket. Does not need external power. Reasonably low price. No bloatware, 465GB formatted. Quiet.
Cons: Warranty situation. 1 year in the Americas, 2 years in Europe, 3 years in Asia. Makes very little sense to me. Why do warranty period based on locale?
Overall Review: When I first plugged it in Windows complained about a bad USB device. Replugged it and clicked on the new found dialogs and it is all good.
A follow up
Pros: PCI-E. Small size. Dual tuners. Cost. I am using it on XP SP3 with Comcast. Using BeyondTV. Works very well, see other thoughts.
Cons: Included software works poorly. Sound dropping off was biggest issue. Also has a very cheesy channel guide. Cost it an egg. Can be a tight fit on some mobos. In my case it would have touched the Northbridge heatsync. I used a small wirenut as a spacer. Any piece of good plastic would should work.
Overall Review: Be sure that you have plenty of disk space. BeyondTV records the program that you are viewing as well as any that you have asked for. Doesn't seem to be any way to prevent this from happening. About 3GB/hr. May need to get an A/B switch to switch between cable and antenna.
Save your money
Pros: Don't interfere with my eyeglasses. Price was 'good', almost 2/3 off.
Cons: - This the first time that I have ever heard 'quality' headphones that have worse sound than desktop speakers (Logitech 2300 in my case). - The folks at Fort Knox would be proud of the clamshell packaging. Was a nightmare to get open. I ended up bleeding. - Only got one of the long/thin earpads. - Claims to block outside noise. Might if I had received both of thin earpads. I can hear they keys as I am typing this at moderate volume. - The cord length includes the 'Y' section. I was hoping that the length referred to the straight part.
Overall Review: I would not buy these again or suggest that a friend do so. The only reason they got a two egg rating was that the Egg got them to me when expected.
