Most Critical Review

Dead out of box

APC BE600M1 Back-UPS 600 VA 330 Watts 7 Outlets Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) with USB Charging Port (Replaces BE550G)
APC BE600M1 Back-UPS 600 VA 330 Watts 7 Outlets Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) with USB Charging Port (Replaces BE550G)

Pros: recyclable packing

Cons: Straight out ot the box it did not work. The green power light came on, indicating that it thought everything was OK, but there was no power coming from the battery backuped outlets, even when the when the UPS was plugged into the wall.

Overall Review: I would not buy this again.

poor firmware support

Aluratek Internet Radio Alarm Clock with Built-in WiFi AIRMM02F
Aluratek Internet Radio Alarm Clock with Built-in WiFi AIRMM02F

Pros: cheap

Cons: Very disappointed that Aluratek hasn't bothered to keep the firmware current. This brand new unit ships with old flrmware (ver 1.14). The web site offers a newer version (ver 1.20) but it's a hassle to upgrade and it still won't allow the unit to play all stations. Specifically, KUSC, my favorite internet radio station, won't play.

Overall Review: The older version of this radio AIRMM01F is better, if you can find it. Here you can get firmware ver 1.50 which does play KUSC!!
