Zen mp3 player
This is a great product. We own two with different GB capacities and they both perform very well. They are easy to use and do not require converting files like with an ipod. Highly recomended!

Amazing!!
This is so much better than any ipod. The price is so much lower and the features so much better. My favorites are the microphone and the fm radio. With the microphone I can record old music from way back before CDs and get a great sounding mp3 out of it. I will never buy another brand.

Zen-great features, fantastic price!
I purchased my Zen about a month ago and have been able to use it for movies and music. The sound quality, even with plain factory earphones, is awesome and the picture for movies is great considering it's a 2.5" screen. I was able to put 6 full length movies and about 200 songs on it for a business trip and there was still almost 2GB left. Amazon definitely has the best price on this product, and the best customer service. This is a fun little gadget and perfect for summer trips!

A little ZEN gem!
I received my 8GB Zen Media Player about an hour ago. I immediately connected it to my computer and got on the Internet. I did N-O-T use the CD provided. My one-year-old Dell PC runs Vista. I went into my OverDrive program and synced an audiobook I have there. I then went into my Amazon Unbox program and synced a few videos from there. Finally, I went into my Windows Media Player 11 and synced over some music and old-time radio plays. When I went into the Zen, I found all of them. I also found some free audiobook excerpts from Audible and some free music. Now, I will be able to manage the ZEN's contents thru the Windows Media Player, etc. I plan to use an SD card to store videos in the future. I am glad that the "buttons" on this player are harder to push than the ones on my three-year-old ZEN Micro. Those cause changes if you just breathe on them!

I still have the new ZEN connected to my computer to finish the charging process (it was a little over 50% charged when I received it). I registered this player at the Creative Internet site. I also checked to see if I have the latest firmware. I do. I should have checked the firmware at the beginning, however!

My experiences in a nutshell:
Creative devices: A-
Creative CD software: D-

I am a very happy retiree with a gem of a new toy!

Creative Zen 8 GB Portable Media Player
I've had the player for a couple of months now and so far it works really good.

I love it!!
I am so excited. For years I Have struggled with my coarse, thick, hair. I have tried so many styles and products to get my hair straight, only to end up with overprocessed, dried out hair that felt like hay. Stylists have always told me I have the thickest head of hair they ever seen, plus my scalp was always too sensitive for a relaxer to process. Needless to say, I have always had grief over my hair, so much so, that I even had dreadlocks for 4 years. This iron saved my life!! I finally went out, bought salon quality shampoo and conditioner, plus an ionic blow dryer and this product, and for the first time ever, I made my hair beautiful and healthy!!!! I spent almost 0 in all, but it is well worth the investment to not have to sit in someone else's chair every week to get great results.If your like me with unruly hair . Trust me, this product will save your life!!! be blessed

Horrible!
The flat iron does not get hot enough to straighten hair! I would not buy this product or work with Beauty Collection, as they would not exchange the product for a different brand!

My Niece loves it
I got this for my niece for a Christmas present. She loves it as well as her sister and her mom. Its great when people like their gifts.

Straightner...
This was an okay product.. Not the best that I used, but still using it!!

Good product but not the BEST
I had previously bought a flat iron at Sally Beauty Supply for only and was surprised with the amazing results. After burining it out by trying to use it in Europe with a simple converter, I could not find it online but decided on the FHI for . I thought it would work even better being that it was more expensive but that was not the case. The FHI is a good product and does the job but is not the best I have used. I expected it to leave my hair sleeker because of the reviews I had read before buying it but that was not the case. Still a good buy but not the best for your your money.

A great microwave
We have been using this microwave for 5 months. It's a great product.
I would wholeheartedly recommend this without reservation to anyone looking for a highend microwave. This is also a convection which is handy.

Panasonic Convection/Microwave Oven
This oven is very stylish in design, would fit into most any style kitchen. It microwaves wonderfully and we love the sensor heat feature. I would have preferred to have digital number input capabilities rather than a knob that you turn to input cooking times, etc. This oven is easy to clean and cooks nicely. Would recommend this oven.

I love this oven!
I bought this oven to replace my microwave and I am very pleased. Its great to have a second oven and microwave all in one. I use the convection and microwave every day. It works great. High quality.

Great Microwave Convecton
To the best of my knowledge this is the largest Microwave/Convection oven available that can be used counter-top or built in. We purchased one for our old house 20 years ago and it just died after much use. We were glad they still make the same product size wise but with many updates.

This is a great product
this is my second Panasonic and I love it. It is simple to use and does a great job.

"Very nice, I like!!!"
Beautiful graphics, realistic physics and stellar game play!!! You'll feel more involved and in tune than you ever have w/ any other Madden, or any football title for that matter! The developers finally seem to have a grasp on harnessing the 360's full power/abilities. It's the next-gen Madden we've all been waiting for and it's FINALLY here!!! If you haven't picked it up... Well, let's just say you are out of your freakin' mind!!!!!!!! I'm not going to take up any more of your time; instead of reading this you should be playing Madden 09!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Madden 2009 vs. Madden 2008: Visual Effects Improved
After carefully playing the game for the first time for about an hour, I could tell right away that Madden NFL 09 is very similar to Madden NFL 08. One minor thing I noticed is that it had slightly improved visually over last year's edition.

I believe one thing they have improved in substantially is the visual effects. The faces, in my opinion, have been enhanced to fit NFL counterparts better, as well as jersey and arm muscles have been modified to look more realistic. I also noticed a little improvement on the stadium and player shadow to add more clarity and visual. Moreover, I like how the field has more fuller precipitation, footprints in the snow, and better looking field grass than Madden NFL 08.

As a Madden NFL fan, I believe there are not much difference from Madden 09 to Madden 08. I still think Madden 09 needs to improve more on the animations and better camera presentation. But overall, I believe Madden NFL 09 is slightly better than Madden NFL 08, but the improvements on made on Madden NFL 09 is not at all significant.

Best Madden Yet
Since EA has the rights to the NFL, the quality of Madden has declined over the last 3 years. Using a radio announcer on TV is the result of an annoying monopoly over American football videogaming. Now that Cris Collinsworth and Tom Hammond are announcing, it has a great presentation. They even have the Sprint half-time report!

Graphics - 5/5 for actually improving the graphics greatly. I feel like it is next-gen. Only 2 blue boxes show up in the endzone during a score (only glitch thus far).
Sound - 5/5 Collinsworth and Hammond have overturned Madden and the radio guys!
Gameplay - 5/5 the new football IQ helps to determine your skills on O and D in 4 categories (on rushing/passing each side). There is even a Matrix-like rewind for newer players to get a "football mulligan"
Fun - 5/5 you may want to get the Collectors' Edition since it comes with Head Coach 09 and Madden 93. I miss Madden 93 when they really were the innovators in football gaming. It just took them 15 years to actually make the game fun again!


I was really sad to see 2K5 go since the presentation was excellent that year for 2K Sports. Madden has been flat for years. The marketing of EA wants to make you think they improved something other than updating the current year rosters, but EA actually put out a quality NFL game this time.

Great gameplay and new features make this a win!
I have been following the Madden franchise for years. Mostly since 1994 I have bought it almost every single year. As of late they have been having problems coming out with a great product. Madden 06-08 had been epic failures in terms of how they executed. This year is finally different.

There are around 85 new features and changes to Madden this year. Some of them good, some of them not so good. The new Rewind system will likely be ignored by hardcore gamers because it's cheap. Mostly you can get a mulligan for a bad play if you choose. Most people that played HATED that. Also the IQ system is not that great. You can get 30 yards rushing off of 20 attempts and still be bumped up to All-Pro. I don't think it really assesses you that well.

The graphics are truly stunning. I work at Wal-Mart and was running the game yesterday for people to try out and everyone stopped by to gawk at how amazing the graphics were. The view from outside the buildings are breathtaking. The players finally move like real people. Their bodies cock back when hit sticked. Necks fly backward and legs crumple. It's very realistic.

The gameplay itself is also a high point. You have total control over your players. Passing has become a lot easier in ways because your QB's skills are finally totally in control. The players actually play to their abilities. It shows when one of the Achievements is "Get 7 TD passes with Atlanta". Talk about difficult.

Commentary is much improved. Gone is the radio and in with the two man broadcast team. I still feel like Madden doesn't know whether it wants to be a down on the field type of game or a broadcast type of game. It takes more broadcast this time around but still keeps the down on the field feel.

Also a fun (and frustrating) part of Madden is Madden Moments. You get to relive a plethora of moments from the 2007 season. From the Bills loss to the Cowboys on Monday Night Football to Devon Hester burning the Broncos. Some of them make you recreate history. Some make you reverse it by stopping it. Either way there are plenty of them and they are NOT a walk in the park.

I have played Madden from Sunday to today on both PS3 and 360 and I must say 360 has the edge. Much better graphics and smoother I believe it's the clear winner this year. The button layouts also compliment the 360. Don't listen to the naysayers, this year Madden came to play.

Best Madden Ever
In my opinion, Madden's gameplay and features have always seemed to stay the same. However, for the first time in the franchise it feels like a whole new different style of play. The game is much more realistic, and feels very authentic. ALso, there are over 85 new freatures ([..]). Overall, it is a must have.
