Have to say the furminator does all it promises though I believe to a certain extent it “razors” some hair off more than combs so I would be cautious to not over brush. I found it especially helpful with our wirey jack russell terrier as his coarse hair is difficult to get off with regular combs.

I bought this flash memory with out new camera and it works very well. Not much to report on. I works which is what I needed.

When I started reading ‘Artemis Fowl’ I didn’t know what to expect. I had just heard it was a popular series with tweens and young teens, but had heard little beyond that. At first I wasn’t too impressed, I found all the LEPrecon stuff a little too cute. But once Artemis sets his scheme in motion with the kidnapping of Holly, the book really picks up steam. In essence, ‘Artemis Fowl’ is a very good heist story, but one with fairies, trolls, dwarfs and 12 year old criminal masterminds. A lot of fun.

As indicated in the title, the Bluetooth is crippled, and I say this because while my cell phone can see the Touch via Bluetooth, my cell phone can’t send anything to the Touch. I have pictures and videos of my son that he wants to see on the Touch, but they just won’t transfer via Bluetooth. Granted, the pictures can be transferred via iTunes and a computer, but I don’t always have my computer with me, and iTunes seems to not want to work properly. Now, having said that, there is a free app, available from the iTunes store that allows the transfer of pictures from one Touch or iPhone to another, but doesn’t allow transfer of pictures from anything else to the Touch. I still haven’t found any way to get a video that I took onto the Touch.
As for the Wi-Fi, I absolutely love this capability, and I use it as often as I can in places where it has already connected to a network. However, I try not to use it in places where I am unsure of Wi-Fi availability, and that is because the process of searching for Wi-Fi really eats the battery life. Just to give you some idea of how much: the battery can be fully charged (as in, it was just unplugged from a charger) and within one minute (and that is a generous estimate) of searching for a Wi-Fi connection, the battery is down by at least a third to almost half of its capacity, and that is not an exaggeration. I generally leave the Wi-Fi feature off unless I can plug in to charge or I know there is Wi-Fi available.
A bit of advice:
1) First and foremost, read the longer, more in-depth reviews posted here. They are definitely worth your time and attention.
2) Get a car and/or wall charger!
3) Try the free apps available in the iTunes app store.
4) If you don’t need the volume control and the built-in mic, get more comfortable earbuds.
All in all, if you want a portable media device that can surf the web, you won’t be disappointed.

Having used several “inexpensive” pedometers over the past two years, which I discovered were quite inaccurate, the HJ-112 is extremely accurate; keeps data for 7 days; and, is multi-function (steps, miles, KCal, etc.). Only drawback, is it’s size e.g. not inconspicuous if you wear it on the hip.
