great router

TP-LINK TL-WDR3600 Dual Band Wireless N600 Router, Gigabit, 2.4 GHz 300 Mbps + 5 GHz 300 Mbps, 2 x USB port, IP QoS, Wireless On / Off Switch
TP-LINK TL-WDR3600 Dual Band Wireless N600 Router, Gigabit, 2.4 GHz 300 Mbps + 5 GHz 300 Mbps, 2 x USB port, IP QoS, Wireless On / Off Switch

Pros: Newegg awesome as always!! Router works great, no drops unlike my old 150 linksys. 5Ghz channel perfect connectivity. have yet to test the 600Mbps (don't have an adapter or device for that yet)

Cons: more annoyance than con... if you flash to the newest TP-Link firmware, it resets the device to factory default.

Nice while it lasted

Panasonic HC-V100K Black 1/5.8" MOS 2.7" LCD 34X Optical Zoom Full HD Camcorder

Pros: Excellent recording quality. Lightweight and easy to use

Cons: Only got to use it one time. Died 2 weeks later (after discarding the box it came in). If I can get the unit to power on, the screen flashes LENS ERR. sending in to Panasonic for repairs.

Great PSU

Pros: Great power supply. Runs really quiet and cool. the modular cables work great for space saving and comes with a nice little storage bag to hold the extra cables

Cons: can't see the LED since my case is bottom mount. not really a con though

practically DOA

ADATA 16GB Class 6 Micro SDHC Flash Card Model MicroSDHC CL6 16G Card
ADATA 16GB Class 6 Micro SDHC Flash Card Model MicroSDHC CL6 16G Card

Pros: fast write speed, when it worked

Cons: plugged it into my sansa fuze, then back into the pc and was prompted to format the card. 2 different windows 7 machines failed formatting as well as a blackberry. now can't write anything to the card since it has to be formatted, which it keeps failing. RMA here we go!

Overall Review: my fuze is not the source of the issue since I did not have the same issues with a different card
