This watch will change the way you train for running. Whether you are heart rate training in the gym or running random trails outdoors, the Forerunner will function in whatever role you need it too. Every function the watch can do can be added or removed from your display screen in large or small text. It includes a “Virtual Partner” that can use your previous run times to improve your own performance. I can’t recommend this GPS watch enough for both experienced and amateur runners alike. I was torn between the 405 and 305 but I’m very happy with the 305. It’s far cheaper and the display is big enough to fit a lot of information on it an make it big enough to read while running. You won’t be sorry you bought this tool!

The portable friction mount works perfectly. It holds my 5″ Garmin in place on the dash, at the perfect height for my vision. I barely have to take my eyes off the road to see it. When I get to my destination, I can quickly grab it and put it in a small tote bag I keep on the floor, so that it’s not visible to passers-by. It just takes a second to pull it back out of the tote bag and set it back out on the dash. This is one of the most perfect items I have ordered from Amazon.

I bought this product based on other reviews of this product on Amazon. I’ve bought a total of 3 cables from this seller now and every one of them works great. The picture quality is amazing and I would recommend this product to everyone who is looking for a HDMI cable that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg.

Pro:
Works – good audio and video quality
Great price!

Cons:
Did not get to test 1080p.

I’ve been using MS Office 2010 Beta since it became available earlier this year and really like it. I purchased the MS Office 2007 version because it was being offered at a lower price than normal and purchase included a free upgrade to MS Office 2010 when it becomes available. As of today (06/26/10) the offer is still valid and it is a good deal. Also, the 2010 version is available for download NOW. I have downloaded and installed the 2010 upgrade – it is a no hassle deal and installs clean – no problems. My advice: Buy the 2007 version at a discounted price and upgrade to 2010 for free. Amazon’s free shipping makes the deal even better.

I gave the 2007 version 3 of 5 stars because I only bought it to get the discounted price and the included free upgrade to 2010. The 2010 version is better and has more features.

Be advised: this version of Microsoft Office does not include Outlook – you must purchase Outlook separately. It’s still a great buy because Outlook is discount priced as well and you are not buying a lot of extra suite components that you will probably never use.

This is a lovely old design, a near copy of a 70s-era Seiko I wore for years. Unfortunately, this watch is not waterproof, only water resistant. If it were not for that, I would make it my daily companion. The face and window are quite readable, the light solves the problem I remember from that old Seiko, and changing modes is fairly easy, although not like other Casios I have had in recent years.

I gave this scale to my parents for a gift. Seven months later, they noticed it started not functioning quite right. They talked to customer service, and a BRAND NEW scale arrived the NEXT DAY! That’s Great Service!! Thanks for standing behind your products!

Seeing the incredible reviews for the vacuum I ordered it and have not been disappointed.

Pros:
1. Great price.
2. Feels sturdy and reliable.
3. Light weight.

The only con is that I no longer have an excuse not to vacuum!

I’ve had this for over a year now. I really like it except I can’t get the height to go over 4′10.
