Not overly satisfied with this product
2008-09-16I am not satisfied with this product at all. I car charger works fine but the wall unit does not charge at all which is the one I was really hoping would work.

They work great
2008-08-30I recieved both products quickly and in great shape. They work perfectly and thus far I haven't had any problems. I like the fact that you can still listen to your music even as it's charging. That was a very pleasant surpise as we were traveling three hours nonstop. Very light weight and easy to take on trips.

It seems that when you're distracted, you're more likely to cause accidents.
In terms of public safety, it's probably correct to say that banning cell phones would reduce the number of traffic accidents. But I think, more accurately, it depends on the person. Some people are operating on, shall we say, lower power CPUs in their heads to begin with. They might be zoned out on prescription drugs, and when you add a cell phone to the equation, they do become a danger to the ...
Printer Buying Guide
What kind of printer is best for me?
Choosing the right printer can be a daunting task. There are several different types of printing technology to choose from, each suited for different needs. Printers come in all shapes and sizes, from tiny travel companions to workgroup workhorses; some are geared toward photographers, others are for multitaskers.
