Further notes on earlier review

Seagate GoFlex Satellite 500GB Mobile Wireless Storage (Black)
Seagate GoFlex Satellite 500GB Mobile Wireless Storage (Black)

Pros: Still working.

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: For those that are wanting to stream to a lot of devices: Think bandwidth. The hardware can only support so much data being transferred at once. So... if you have 4 kids as I do, sample your movies at low bit-rates and frame rates, or match the iPod Touch 3rd gen video rates and you won't have any issues streaming to at least 4 devices. I've played movies on a laptop, an iPhone 5, an iPod touch (3rd gen), and an iPad mini - all at the same time. If you want more - I saw that Silicon Power boasts their unit can stream to 10 devices all at once. I am still very pleased with this unit.

Most Critical Review

Fit

EVERCOOL EC-MC-BK Aluminum Heatsinks only
EVERCOOL EC-MC-BK Aluminum Heatsinks only

Pros: Nice coolers - feel a little cheap, but hey, they're metal plates. What can you expect?

Cons: They are too wide at the top for my new Crucial triple channel 2Gb sticks.

Wow...

RAVPower Xtreme 15000mAh Voltage-Adjustable (5V 9V 12V) External Battery Pack Charger
RAVPower Xtreme 15000mAh Voltage-Adjustable (5V 9V 12V) External Battery Pack Charger

Pros: Funny.

Cons: Interesting.

Overall Review: Here the product's description: (copied directly) Features: - The high capacity of 15000 mAh can largely extend the battery life for most of your mobile devices like smart phones, tables and notebook. - Adopt top-rated Li-Polymer Battery cells, which are more stable and safe than Li-ion battery, such as both iPad and iPhone use the safer Li-polymer battery. 500+ recharge cycles over the life of the battery. - A wide range of output voltage (5V/9V/12V): 2* USB output can used to charge most mobile phones with 5V Input; 1* DC output with switchable button to charge tablets, netbook with 9V & 12V Input. - 4 Intelligent LED status bar will indicate the current battery status, which enables you to have everything under control; Automatically power on/off function can largely save the energy. - Security protection design: short-circuit and over current protection; The device will automatic shutdown when short circuit or overload output happened to avoid destroy the device and accident I love the last part: "...The device will automatic shutdown when short circuit or overload output happened to avoid destroy the device and accident..." I expect better Newegg.

Loving it so far

LG Electronics 14X SATA Blu-ray Internal Rewriter without Software, Black Model WH14NS40 - OEM
LG Electronics 14X SATA Blu-ray Internal Rewriter without Software, Black Model WH14NS40 - OEM

Pros: I got what I ordered.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: This is the first Blu-ray drive I've owned. To date, I've not ran any Blu-rays in it just yet. I can say, however, it is VERY quiet. So quiet I wondered if it was working. Got it on sale for $49 - so far it's worth every pennie. I'll update you all in a couple weeks.

Update...

Sapido BRF70n Smart Wi-Fi Wireless-N Router with Built-In Power Adapter
Sapido BRF70n Smart Wi-Fi Wireless-N Router with Built-In Power Adapter

Pros: Still works great. The place we stayed had it's own wifi router - rather than keying the very long passkey into each iPod - it plugged this is with a network cable to the router and just bridged the connection. Just like that - all the kids could get their game updates or check e-mail.

Cons: Doesn't recognize my Seagate Satellite HDD when I plug it in. It's medis sharing software is Samba - and I'm not familiar with that yet.

Overall Review: iOS7 now complains about a wireless access point not having a connection to the internet - you have to dismiss the warning twice before your iOS7 device will connect to it. Frustrates the kids - and my wife. Apple has yet to add an option to "not bother you with that".

It's cool

Sapido BRF71n Smart Wireless-N 3G/4G Router with USB and Built-in Power Adapter
Sapido BRF71n Smart Wireless-N 3G/4G Router with USB and Built-in Power Adapter

Pros: Reading how Chinese translates to English is always fun. USB powered! (or wall outlet)

Cons: Not for your grandma.

Overall Review: If you can setup your home router, you can do this. If you need to call Geek Squad for your home Wifi - don't bother. I got this so the kids could all play network Minecraft in the car - and it works, perfectly.

A little slower than Newegg

But not by much! Will do business with Sapido again.
