Really great

YAMAHA RX-V773WABL 7-Channel AV Receiver with WiFi Adapter

Pros: Price Features Networking

Cons: Not really anything... There could be UI tweaks in the receiver and control app for the phone.

Overall Review: For the price, buying this receiver is a no-brainer. I bought this from Newegg several months ago when it was on sale like this. I love being able to stream music from Rhapsody and Pandora right on the unit. And the remote control app on my phone lets me control everything, including Rhapsody and Pandora. Its support for 2 zones is outstanding. I'm able to stream Rhapsody in zone 2 while people are watching TV in zone 1. It works flawlessly. Once I got it set up, the networking is working almost flawlessly. I am always able to start the unit remotely and then control all the features. Every once in a while, streaming music will stop, but it is rare enough to not bother me too much. The sound is clear and rich. I have Definitive Tech and B&W speakers and they sound great with this receiver, better than they did compared to the Onkyo I was using before this one.

Great printer, great value

Pros: So far, I'm really impressed by this printer. I bought it to replace a very troublesome HP inkjet. It was well packed and the documentation was the best I've seen in a device in a long time. It quickly connected to my wireless network and has been rock solid so far. It has no trouble waking up to do a print job. This was a huge problem with my HP. It's fast and the prints look really good. I haven't any color issues that others have mentioned. Scanning is effortless, with easy one-touch buttons to send a scan to particular computer. For 180 bucks with the promo code, this is one of the best deals I have ever gotten from Newegg.

Cons: The only cons are related to the driver software. On one of my machines, it says that my admin user doesn't have permissions to install the drivers. No other application has had that problem on that computer.

Cute little keyboard

Pros: Looks Works well

Cons: Some keys don't have dark enough markings

Overall Review: This works well for me. I use it every day for work. It's small size gives me more room on my desk. It keeps up with my typing. It looks cool. The letters and symbols are cut into the keys and darkened by what seems to be a stain. A few keys could use more stain to make the symbol darker.
