Satechi ST-IPOP Ultra Portable Rechargeable Speaker for iPod, iPhone and MP3 player

Amazing, small and lightweight but perfectly formed and an essential accessory for any owner of an iPod, iPhone or MP3 player, this ultra portable rechargeable pop-out speaker is perfect for listening to your favorite music when you're on your travels or out with friends and family. With its bottom panel extended out and bright blue power LED indicator, operating this device of 3" in diameter is disarmingly simple. There is only a power switch, an audio cable of about 4" length and a plug which you insert into audio sources such as MP3 players, mobile phones or notebook computers. There are also four mobile phone audio adapters so that you can blast music from compatible phones of brands like Sony Ericsson and Nokia. The speaker also comes with a USB cable for recharging its battery. To pack away the gadget, just push the bottom panel into the capsule. Push the panel again and the base pops out and it enhances the bass sounds. With its digitally-amplified 3.8 watt speaker, 360 sound field and expandable bass system, featuring a range of audio connectors and with up to 6 hours of playback from a single charge, you'll be able to enjoy your music wherever and whenever you want.

After seeing and hearing the sound of the I-Tour Pop speaker, I was sold. So much so that I've already ordered 5 of the speakers for all the young adult children in our family for Christmas. I've been surprised at how many uses I've found for it, I've used it with my laptop in the kitchen, and attached to my iphone 4, I've used it in the car, put it on the ledge in the kitchen above the sink and watched movies while doing the dishes, and carried it from room to room while I've listened to Pandora. Its tiny and has really decent sound for something so small. The rechargeable battery is a great feature. Very good value for the money. I am a very pleased customer.

LG 32LV2400 32-Inch 720p 60Hz LED-LCD HDTV

The 32LV2400 is an HD TV that delivers brilliant colors, deeper blacks and the picture performance of LED backlighting technology. Move into an entertainment experience you've been waiting for with the LV2400.

All Feature:

• LG's LED technology provides a slim profile and delivers amazing brightness, clarity and color detail, as well as greater energy efficiency compared to conventional LCD TVs.
• See and experience more. Pictures are sharper. Colors are more vibrant. Entertainment is more real. Everything looks better on an HDTV.
• Let your TV do the adjustments for you. Intelligent Sensor automatically optimizes the picture to the lighting and color conditions in the room for a more enjoyable viewing experience.

I needed to upgrade a bedroom TV to receive HDTV w/o an external tuner. Who wants to spend $150 for a tuner with HDMI when this TV is $300? I liked the idea of the lighter weight and possible longer life of the LED backlight. I'm impressed with the tuner and the picture but the audio is a throwback to the tinny speakers of old. No bass or midrange. I think it may even be mono? (gasp!). Fortunately I have a Home theater receiver in the bedroom so disaster averted. If you don't have a home theater even a good PC speaker system with a sub would be far superior. Overall satisfied to get a name brand with a one year warranty and LED backlighting for the price.

It has 2 HDMI inputs for various high def devices, a PC input to connect a computer, and 2 component inputs for whatever devices you have. It has a direct USB input which gives you the ability to view images and video and listen to music from a USB-connected device. It has a sleek design with hidden speakers that make this TV perfect for anywhere in the house. So for a versatile and stylish LCD TV with full high definition capabilities and more, go for Haier?s L32D1120.

I purchased this TV to replace an aging 55" rear projection Mitsubitshi that i had set up in my office. While browsing the deal sites I noticed this TV listed at $197 dollars and clicked the link to the Amazon site. I was not familiar with the Haier brand of televisions and thought of it as a cheap knockoff TV with subpar screens. There were only four reviews of this TV while i was contemplating the purchase and though they were mostly good i was a little leery about buying this. Amazon made the decision easier by offering a 30 day guarantee with free return shipping so I went ahead and purchased the TV. I am a subscriber to Amazon Prime, so 2 day shipping was free. The TV showed up on my doorstep 2 days after the purchase. Thank you Amazon. The box that the TV came in was in great shape. There were no dents and it didn't look like the box had been abused. The packaging for the TV was superb. I unwrapped the TV and removed the plastic on the front of the TV. The front bezel is a very shiny plastic. The stand which is also a shiny black plastic comes with 4 screws to attach to the TV. This TV comes with a glowing light at the bottom center of the bezel which indicates whether the TV is on or off. It shows red when off and green when on. Nice touch for such a low priced TV. I hooked my DirectTV box to the TV and selected the correct HDMI input. The inputs on the back are not exactly in the best positioning for connection of your devices. I assume they configured the hookups that away because some people like to hang the TV's on the wall install of the stand. The picture on this TV is very clear with very good color saturation. Some TV's look a bit washed out but not this TV. Would this TV compare to a high definition TV such a Sony or Samsung? I would say no, but you would pay much more for one of those TV's. Some people have said that the sound is not very good on this TV. I find that the sound is more than adequate. It gets plenty loud in my office. I've never owned any TV where the sound is great coming out of its own speakers. Thats why they have surround systems. People, for the price you cannot go wrong with this TV. If this is the size of TV you are looking for and are wanting to use it in a bedroom or office or anywhere a smaller TV is adequate I would say...Buy it now!!! Before the price goes up.

Philips 22PFL4505D/F7 22-Inch 720p LED LCD HDTV

OK, this TV is definitely on the smaller side. Coming from a 21 "dinosaur-age TV, I thought that 22" would be bigger, but it is not due to the big screen. So even if the diagonal is a bit 'bigger, the image height is lower. Thinking evil of me. However, in a small apartment like mine, a small TV has only advantages. The pictures are amazing, great colors, great sharpness.

Yes, the reviews are true that the sound is not great, but it's not exactly what I expect from a TV. I setup a 5.1 surround sound with speakers of the computer connected to the telephone ear. To my very pleasant surprise, the remote can then be used to adjust the sound level. Before, I had to use a television remote control, a speaker, and one for the drive. It could not be happier with this purchase.

And just a word about shipping. It 'was the fastest ever. It 'just took 2 days to get to me, and it was announced the arrival of more than a week later.

TCL L40FHDF11TA 40-Inch 1080p 60 Hz LCD HDTV with 2-Year Warranty

I already have a 50 "plasma in the living room, so I jumped at the chance to see what an LCD screen had to offer. I set it up in my bedroom, upgraded to an HD box and lit it.

The image is gorgeous! Crystal clear and bright. The colors sometimes appear a little 'more saturated than the plasma, but this is neither for nor a scam, as both groups have their bright moments. In particular, the LCD is very good with graphics that include vectors and clean lines.

I like that, unlike the plasma, the lamp in my room does not cast reflection on the screen. That was a downside to the plasma, but the LCD is a non-issue. Furthermore, it shows better in sunlight than in plasma.

The only downside - if you can call it that - is that I could not figure out the remote code to configure the Comcast / Xfinity remote to control the TV power and volume.

The 32 "size is perfect for my bedroom, and gave me an awesome view from my bed very personal. As for my plasma, I bought an HDMI cable to get the best performance ever. They are expensive, but it's worth.

Included in the package are the TV, easy to assemble stand, four screws, remote and an instruction sheet.

Excellent product!
