I love this toy. As a grandma, it’s so easy to take along pictures of the family to share. I also like the amount of music that can be stored. However, finding out all the things the iTouch can do is a bit of a challenge. Luckily I have in-house help, because the directions on how to use it are practically nonexistent, especially for a PC user like me. I also wish the ear buds were more comfortable; with all the great brains at Apple, wouldn’t you think they could come up with something that doesn’t make your ears ache? If the buds are inserted so that there’s no pain, they tend to fall out regularly. Boo.

Maybe they can get it right the first time

This the 3rd Bluetooth Stereo headset I have purchased and by far the best. I owned a Jabra BT620s (uncomfortable, bad battery life, poor sound and terrible volume. I also owned a Sony Ericsson hbh-ds980 (decent sound, poor battery life and all controls didn’t work). The Sennheiser MM200 is great. Decent Bass,very comfortable, great battery life, excellent volume (I like my music loud), decent call quality. It is a little expensive, but after buying 2 before this it is money well spent.

I purchased these clippers when my first son was born and have used them for 4 years. The other reviewer is right – the magnifying glass isn’t really any help. BUT, despite this, these clippers are FAR better than any others. They’re worth the price without the magnifying glass. They’re very easy to handle – feel natural in your hand – and sharp enough to cut nails yet designed so you can easily avoid cutting little fingers. I lost the pair I had and recently ordered the Safety 1st clippers which are horrible (difficult to handle, dull, stiff and don’t clamp down easily). You’ll be very happy with these clippers if you buy them.
The First Years American

A good book depicting thoughts of a youth who doesn’t know where he belongs yet while he “puts down” most actions of others. A book for youth; a bit tiresome reading for adults.

Everything is convenient and easy on the iPod touch. I would definitely recommend it to anyone considering getting one. MP3′S can’t touch this. Awesome little machine. For those thinking they will get this instead of a computer for school, DON’T.

Great book.. totally unexpected that I would like it this much… Slow start but hang in there you won’t be sorry. I was totally sorry to see the book end. A good sign that the author captured the reader.
Will be looking forward to more books from her..

I use the pedometer every day!! The big clip on the pedometer does not all ways hold but the small clip on the rope is strong & keeps me from loosing it. I would have to buy another one…Love It!!

This item works great but it is very large. Make sure it will fit on your dash before you order. If it fits it works great. If not, not so much. Amazon should put the size on the web page. Its about 8″ across.

Since acquiring my Kindle, I’ve started playing a new game. I download “samples” of all kinds of books. If I can get hooked in the first few chapters, well clearly the author deserves the book sale.

That is exactly what happened with Water for Elephants. Almost immediately I was completely drawn into the story. Ms. Gruen uses an effective framing device for her tale. Nonagenarian Jacob Jankowski is telling his story in flashbacks from his present in a nursing home. And it is the story of his first job out of veterinary school. The year is 1931 and the country is embroiled in the Depression. Tragedy sends Jacob fleeing his orderly life. Without trying to, the young man winds up running away to the circus.

Water for Elephants is a coming of age novel, a buddy tale, a period drama, and a love story. It’s one of those rare novels that seems to captivate almost all readers. I came late to it, but I was as entranced as all those who have raved before me. Gruen’s prose is strong, but it’s her characters and setting that capture the imagination. I haven’t been to a circus in decades, and have no particular interest in that life. But Sara Gruen is a fantastically gifted storyteller, in the most elemental sense of the word. I will be grabbing future novels upon publication. Highly recommended to all who crave a great story!
