Perfect on my system2008-08-27
This cable has worked great for me. I use it to connect my HDTV to my stereo and my Playstation 2 to my stereo. Previously, I've always used coaxial digital audio (DVR to stereo and CD player to stereo). The TV and PS2 don't support coaxial, only optical, so I had to go with this cable.

The cable works perfectly. Much, much better than the far pricier alternative. I've had no issues. Since you're moving digital, quality of the cable is irrelevant. So long as the light can make it, you're good to go. Optical is superior to coaxial here, because there's no potential for RFI/magnetic interference, so the quality of the cable is even less relevant.
Cheap but works2008-08-23
Picked it up for .99 on here which is great but shipping was nearly $5. The cable itself is pretty cheap. Its thin, lightweight, and the connectors are weak. Still, it works.
I like them2008-08-01
I heard such mixed reviews on these, I had concerns about the purchase. However, I took a chance, ordered two, and I am glad I did. These are as good as any other optical cables I have used(I have two others). The sound is fine and they connect just great. Since these are not a name brand, (mine came in an unmarked plastic bag) I do wonder if everyone is getting the same cables or if they are sent those made by various manufacturers.
Is this a toy?2008-07-31
What I actually received was an "Optical Cable lite", as stated on the plastic bag, not what is named/ described
This cable is about 1/10 the thickness of the Targus $2 cables I'm using in my living room. The thickness of the end housing is about 3/4 of my other cables. With such small amount of protection around the wire, it's can't have the same protection that more standard cables have. It's the rubber around the wire that keeps your cables from interfering with one another.
I don't know how they work yet, but these are NOT exactly like Monster Cables, as stated in some reviews I've seen, or any other standard cables I've ever used or seen, as the description lead me to believe.
I'm really disappointed. I thought I was getting a high quality cable, similar to other cables I've purchased on Amazon, but this is not made anywhere nearly as well and it's as it's been skimped on in the amount of covering to protect the wire, I don't have high hopes that any part of it was made with any quality. I bought two, so I paid two shipping fees
a bargain2008-07-29

Digital camera batteries
Batteries are vital for all photography and makiing sure that you have a spare set is essential if you intend to take alot of pictures. Print digital also recommend that when deciding upon a digital camera keep in mind what sort of batteries it takes. Does it take rechargeable batteries, are the batteries built and do you have to plug it into the mains, or does the camera only take standard batteries, if so then it can become exspensive if you are a keen photographer and use the camera alot. There are three types of rechargeable batteries: NiCD, NiMH and Lithium-Ion. Nickel Metal Hydride are the most popular rechargeable batteries at present. They hold more charge than their counter parts NiCD and don't suffer from memory effect. The one small down fall of these batteries is that they will loose a small amount of charge even if they are not being used, so be sure to check the batteries before using them. When you purchase a new digital camera make sure to ask what type of battery ...
