Let me start off by saying I think this is a great tool. I did a lot of research and price comparison before purchasing the Garmin 305. I have now owned it for over a year and have found that it is a valuable tool during training and diagnosing issues.
During my research one issue that seemed to be prevalent among the lowest reviews was that of reliability. On this subject I will agree. After one year I am on my third Garmin 305. I don’t usually purchase extended warranties but because of the reviews I read, I made an exception in this case and spent a little extra and I think it was well worth it. Out of the box my first 305 worked very well, no issues. However, after just about a month, two or three lines at the top of the screen stopped working. It wasn’t enough that it interfered with the display but the unit was only a month or two old and I really hadn’t run with it all that many times. As a matter of fact I had only charged that GPS once. After returning the unit for a second one, out of the box the down menu navigation button didn’t really work and during the initial programming stopped working altogether. I now have a third one and it seems to be working just fine. No complaints and no problems to this point.
Other low marks from previous owners cited issues with the GPS not being able to stay lock on the satellites while running under vegetation or around tall building and once clear of the obstacles, the unit was unable to relocate the satellites. I have not experience this issue with any of the units I have had. During the initial power up the instruction indicate that you should not move around. The display shows a progress bar as it searches for the GPS satellites and this does take a minute or two. I usually power it up and set it on a window sill while I finish getting ready for my run. That said, my regular routine takes me under four lane highway bridges and through tree covered streets and I have never had any problems. I can

This is great entertainment when you are stuck inside. Also provides some decent exercise. The only negative is the same music over and over. Had to quit playing for a while, because the music drove me crazy.

I bought this solely for its exercise potential. And it is working out great! I am morbidly obese and I’m finding that the Wii Sports games that came bundled in it are perfect for someone who cannot stand for long periods of time. I’m currently up to 40 minutes per day doing a combined routine of bowling,boxing and golf-with an occasional game of baseball or tennis.
Buy the Wii and start getting fit!

Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer is an enjoyable fantasy book that I would recommend to kids of all ages. The story opens in the bustling metropolis of Ho Chi Minh City. Artemis Fowl and his servant, Butler, are meeting a man who has promised to introduce them to a fairy. After meeting a weak fairy who has been drained of magic by rice wine, they trick her into sharing her secret fairy book with them in exchange for saving her life. The book, which contains all the rules and secrets of the world’s fairies, is photographed by Artemis and e-mailed to his server for safe keeping. Meanwhile, Captain Holly Short, a LEPrecon (Lower Elements Policeman) enters a pod in the fairy city near the center of the earth that will shoot her out of a vent to fight a troll who has escaped to the earth’s surface. Little does she know that soon after that she will be kidnapped by Artemis Fowl!
Artemis Fowl is a character with a plan. He is a driven, wealthy twelve year old who wants to steal fairy gold. In the beginning of the book he is described as an extremely pale young man who seems to have no friends except his servant, Butler. He is a bright, tech genius who is not in school because his mother is loosing her mind. My favorite part of the book was reading about how he is training himself to become a criminal mastermind. Right before he meets with Commander Root to negotiate for Fowl’s fairy hostage, he prepares for the interaction by concentrating on how he will act. “Artemis put on his best sinister face. Evil, he told himself, evil but highly intelligent. And determined, don’t forget determined. He put a hand on the doorknob. Steady now. Deep breaths, and try not to think about the possibility that you have misjudged this situation and you are about to be shot dead.” (Colfer 213)
The underground fairy world in Artemis Fowl is an incredibly imaginative creation. Although we are told a limited amount about the underground city, we are thrown into a fantastic description of Captain

The system was in OK condition for not what I expected for what I paid. I had to replace the wireless bar that receives the remotes commands because the wire had been cut, and for that cost I could have just paid the extra 20.00 for a new system instead of 20 less for the used one. I am not real happy about this.

An excellently written and very interesting story which actually does have an unexpected ending!
However, there is a great deal of violence, sexual violence and sadistic behavior in general.
I wish that this excellent writer could write a book for adults which wouldn’t call for reading so much trashy stuff. I’m a great believer in “garbage in, garbage out” and wish that my recollectons of this otherwise terrific book didn’t include the above trash, and/or large sections which I skipped just because I didn’t want to put such stuff into my poor brain to remember! This was such a wonderful story that I feel badly that I find it necessary to warn about the trashy side of it.

Purchased this for my 11 year old daughter. She had a 30 Gig iPOD Video. This is so much more than that was. Where that would play video and music, this will do that plus a host of other games that are avaialable on line. Connect this to our wifi and she is content for hours. The App store has thousands of applications and many are free. Load a couple new apps and it is a great traveling companion while on the way to the cabin or B-Ball tournament

Despite several thousand positive reviews, this carpet cleaner was HORRIBLE. I read the owner’s manual as everyone suggested before using it but it was to no avail. The cleaner itself was so light it didn’t make a dent in the sections of my carpet I was trying to clean – the carpet looked just as stained as it was before after 2 separate runs in the pattern recommended in the owner’s manual.
The handle of the cleaner is jiggly – it doesn’t lock in place when you put the cleaner upright and ‘lock’ it into place – overall cheaply made product.
The cleaner does NOT auto-rinse the carpets and the water tank is ridiculously hard to empty to do the second rinse run as the owners manual suggests you may want to try. In fact, it never truly empties – there is always a bit of water left in the tank which could lead to mildew problems. The cleaner left a ton of soapy water in my carpet that did not dry for FIVE DAYS because no mater how many times I ran the cleaner over the area, minimal water was sucked up into the tank! I had to call out a professional steam cleaning service to clean my carpets!!
Horrible, horrible product. I shipped it back for a full refund just 3 days later.
