Customer Review: Very disappointed
So upset with this machine I am writing my first review. The machine seems to have a life of its own. It is connected by a scart cable to a sky+ box and by another scart to my TV. If I change TV channels or switch off TV while recording from the sky+ box the recording stops. Tried all cable combinations but nothing helps. Nobody on the ‘help line’ can sugggest anything.
Customer Review: Unreliable
I have had and returned 2 of these. At first worked well, but in both cases after several months became suddenly unable to change channels, ie turned into a god DVD player & useless recorder. have changed to another brand

Customer Review: Avoid!!
Ill get straight to the point, this is an AWFUL bit of kit, its painfully slow, records only when it feels like it and even then if it does record what you want it may just decide to randomly delete it at any time. Its also quite prone to freezing if you ask something complicated like changing channel to quickly. Oh and finally the picture quality is honestly so poor i don’t know how it passed quality control!!

Customer Review: Good with minor problems
This does not have an electronic programme guide but does have videoplus. Picture quality off the hard disc or DVD is very good. It plays DIVX movies very well. The remote has some small buttons but responds well. Recordings off the timer are fine but it takes a while to boot up.

The disply when watching live TV has a mind of its own, sometimes displays channel name, somtimes date or programme name. In other modes it works as you expect. Mine froze twice,the red record light staying on after a timer recording, unplugging fixed it.

I’ve not tried tranfer to DVD but it plays recordings on DVDR & DVDRW well. Overall I’m well satisfied

Customer Review: fair-to-middling, bit pricey
Have owned one of these for 18 months, is still working well with regular use — mainly for recording a few Sky programs per week via SCART and watching DVDs. Average DVB tuner (the one on my Philips LCD suffers less break-up), good picture, reasonable analogue sound. Fan often comes on when recording and noise can be a bit distracting. Occasionally get disc noise on playback. 1hr and 2hr recording modes via SCART are good, 4hr is a little poor for my liking. Recorded DVB picture often seemed a bit poorer than the live picture was (more blocking, especially with smoke or large areas of same colour). OK otherwise.
Customer Review: re previous reviews
had this recorder for about a month now and i have had no problems with the manual nor any problems recording from sky+. picture quality is very good, it records on all discs, for the money i dont think you will buy a better machine

just bought the tv for conservatory/bedroom use,although picture quality not as good as my samsung its good enough,built in dvd saves space,i’m pleased with it.
Customer Review: BAD TV
This tv does have a Buzz and it is very noticable. The sound levels are far too loud also just like others have said making it useless for the bedroom as its just too loud. The remote control is slow at responding, you press the buttons and nothing happens. Good side to it is that the DVD and USB plays divx. It played a 250gb passport drive full of divx perfectly. I would stay clear of this model and try another though.

Power Traveller Power Monkey - Universal Charger for all Mobile, PDA & iPod
(Power Traveller)Powermonkey Emergency Charger ……because life doesn’t stop

Customer Review: Really, really good
I work on submarines and so, although we do have some 3 pin sockets, it is very hard to charge ipods etc when i’m away and the sockets are in almost constant use. I take the power monkey (i actually have 2) and from them i am able to charge my ipod, my ipaq 5550 and my nokia (for when we get alogside). It’s simply excellent, you require relatively little time on the socket and one charge of the monkey seems to keep all my other bits going for ages. It holds its charge well and is really neat and compact to store (as space is obviously at a premium).

There are several little connectors which come as standard but you only take what you need, I had to buy one for my ipaq which cost ?2.50 so little money for the high use i get. It comes with a set of international plug adaptors so you can charge the monkey just about anywhere you happen to pop up.

All in all i would argue that i put the monkey through some pretty hostile use and expect a lot from it and to be fair it delivers.

I would recommend it to anyone and a lot of my friends have started catching on now and are using them too.

Just a really good,practical, no nonsense piece of kit which does exactly what it says it does!

Customer Review: Deserves higher profile
For those like me, who are a bit of a ‘gadget man’ this piece of kit is the best thing I’ve bought in ages! Every time I go away I used to have to take loads of different chargers which was a complete pain. This solves all the problems. Recently went on holiday and it charged my IPOD Nano, PSP, Motorola phone (and the wife’s Nokia). Also powered my Sony Camera. In the pack itself there are loads of attachments - although check website first as some you may need to buy.

Has plenty of power and therefore you don’t need to keep charging the monkey itself.

If you want to save carrying all your chargers around this is a godsend - even if you only had say a PSP I would still buy. The monkey itself is extremely compact and easily portable.

Great buy!!!

Klipsch iGroove iPod Speaker System “Silver” Designed to leave no room unrocked, the new Klipsch iGroove is a convenient all-in-one digital music system that delivers audiophile quality sound everywhere you need it.
Customer Review: Klipsch iGroove iPod Speaker System (silver or black)
I’d been searching for ages for an iPod speaker dock system that would rival and maybe even replace my old separates hi-fi system that had started to show its age. (I work in the film industry and used to run a recording studio so good sound is very important to me). I was pretty thorough in my research, home-tested two different units, became a pain to many a shop assistant and also poured over reviews on the net researching which units to test. I finally bought the Klipsch iGroove iPod Speaker System from Amazon and am very happy with it indeed. In fact, I think it is the best sounding iPod speaker dock that I found to date and recommend it most highly.

Speaker docks have two design limitiations:
1) The size of the dock tends to limit the bass response.
2) The way many docks connect to the iPod is via a male socket that plugs into the base of the iPod. This socket is often hard-wired to the pcb of the dock system, is subject to stress when the iPod is plugged in or unplugged and therefore can fail after light use.

The iGroove has a bass port at the back of the unit which is very effective. Additionally, the iPod fits snugly into the cradle on the unit, with a neat slider arrangement embedded into this cradle being adjusted up or down depending on which iPod you fit. (I use this unit with a 5g Video iPod and a 4g 40 Gig iPod just fine). The actual male connector is fixed firm and has no play to it. By adjusting the slider to the correct hight, you can drop the iPod into the unit and take it out again without causing any stress at all to the plug. Also, if you adjust the slider correctly, the iPod cannot move at all when connected, thereby limiting the potential for any stress to the connector.

Untis I tested included the following:
Monitor Audio i-deck Speaker Dock for iPod (I actually bought one of these and although it sounded great, I returned it after a couple of months as the connector failed - a common fault according to Newsgroups)
JBL Onstage II - iPod Speaker System - (very dissappointing sound and really lacked in bass)
JBL Radial - High Performace iPod Speaker System - (although more powerful, still not as impressive as I’d hoped)

Smaller, cheaper units sounded smaller and cheaper! I also read some pretty worrying comments from users of iRythhm regarding failure of the connector…

In summary:-

Pros:
Great sound
Small size
Good price
Excellent build quality

Cons:
Remote is a bit fussy - have to point it directly to the unit as it is infra-red (the Monitor Audio iDock used an RF remote which was much better).
Customer Review: Klipsch iGroove
Very pleased with it, sound is truly amazing for such a small unit, great bass (much better than the Bose, I think, and cheaper too) and very little distortion at high volume. It’s very close to the Apple hi-fi for sound quality but is much smaller and the ipod sits securely in front, not balanced on top (significant risk of damage in a house with 2 small kids rushing about). The ability to use other MP3 players or laptops with it was also a big plus. The only niggle is that the remote is tiny and easy to lose, so a place to store it in or on the unit would have been helpful.

Customer Review: Overrated, very disapointed. Avoid.
There is no built in digital receiver (a separate set top box is needed), the disc player has a high pitch whistle when playing a disc and play back quality using the hard disc facility is poor. Oh and my toshiba television remote (32wlt68) does not operate it when switched to dvd or vcr settings. So I now have a zapper for my set top box, one for my t.v. and one for the dvd/vcr player.Thats three in total. To record a programme onto the hard disc facility via the set top box is like crossing the M25 on foot blindfolded and walking backwards. The back of my t.v. unit is like spahetti junction too.
Customer Review: Great but not quite perfect
Having read all the reviews on Amazon about this machine, I decided to take the plunge while the price was so good (?165). While overall it’s a great machine, it does have some disapointments. The first thing I discovered was that it is not multi-region (at least one reviewer said it was). It may well play NTSC VHS (I don’t know, I don’t have a tape to test it with) but it certainly wont play region 1 DVDs. The next thing I discovered was that it wont copy DVDs recorded on another machine. This is a pain if you have, say, old camcorder footage that has been previously transfered to DVD and you want to re-edit on the Toshiba’s HDD. This is obviously none copyright material, so why not let it be copied freely? The last problem that I discovered was when transfering old camcorder-shot VHS material from the 1980s. Sometimes during the transfer, the machine stops dubbing and shows a message that it will not dub copyright material??? And when it does copy, it’s a bit hit and miss on the final result, with copies suffering from tracking style problems. I guess the solution is to hook up a seperate VHS/DVD player for the initial dubbing of old material. Not ideal and defeating the object somewhat but once they are transfered, that’s it. On the plus side, using the HDD for recording is great. Setting it at LP, the picture is perfectly acceptable. The thumbnails are essential for identification as the recorder doesn’t automatically name the recordings and doing it manually via the handset is tedious. It does actually list the channel, recording setting and day/time/date of the recording but the time/date function does sometimes default to ‘Mon 01/01/07′(maybe this is a fault on my machine?). The timeslip function is another great feature. If a TV programme is about to start and you’re still making your sandwich, just press ‘timeslip’ and carry on with your chore. When you sit down 10 minutes later, press ‘timeslip’ again and the show starts from the begining and you can watch it as if live (and fast forward the ads). You can even watch a previously recorded programme on the HDD while recording something else on the same HDD at the same time!!! Transfering from HDD to DVD is easy. I transfered 2 movies, total running time 3 hours (after I had edited out the ads) using the auto function to fit them neatly onto the disc. The result was perfect and the quality great. The finished disc had a neat menu (don’t think it will do chapters) and played fine on another player in the house. My TV is a bog standard, 3 or 4 year old telly. Not even widescreen and I’ve not had any of the problems that have been mentioned in some of the other reviews. I have a freeview box connected by scart and a normal sky box, again scart connected. Everything is just connected as if the Toshiba was a normal VHS machine and there are no problems with not being able to watch one channel while recording another that have been experienced by other reviewers. So, despite the problems of transfering old video material (and that may be just unique to my stuff), it’s still a great machine and at ?165, it’s a great bargain.

Came to Amazon when let down by smaller suppliers and as ever Amazon proved reliable and efficient. (N.B. this TV was ?400 pre Xmas!!) The TV itself is great, albeit the freeview as mentioned can be grainy and the response time of the remote is slow. However watching tv through the sky+ digibox is as good a picture as my old panansonic CRT once we got the settings sorted out, which can be fiddly, and the gamer mode in HD for the XBOX 360 is incredible - Call of Duty 4 is scary!! Overall a great little TV and for the money as good as anything around - we did our research.

iRhythm A461 - iPod Portable Docking Speaker - Black
Portable, yet another stunning product delivering rich sound - the new A460/461 series from the makers of well known Cyber-Acoustics - iRhythms.. With a total system power of 6 watts, (3 watts each), using 2 Neodymium Micro Drivers, it has got the power to fill a room with quality sound whilst maintaining it’s portability for travel. Not forgetting, that it can charge your ipod and sync whilst listening to your favourite music. What more..?? It can run off the batteries on move! (Batteries not included) and comes with almost 7 inserts for various ipod models.

Customer Review: Good value&good sound - shame about the annoying plug.
I have just recently bought these speakers for myself and i am pleased with the sound,price and quality of them. There is only one thing that bothers me about them, the plug makes a buzzing sound when you switch it on. It doesn’t effect the sound when the speakers are playing music, but when they are just on to charge the ipod, the sound is really irritating. I’m not sure if it is a fault with my speakers or if it happens with every single set. It would be interesting to hear if other sets have the same problem.

Customer Review: Sounds good, but power and dock connections are weakest link
Sound is great! portability no problem, but I had a problem with the power pack supplied. The power lead has a continental European two-prong plug with a slide-on UK adapter. When I first plugged the unit in, nothing happened. By elimination I worked out that the UK adapter was faulty. I could not be bothered to return the whole unit to Amazon, so I replaced the adapter and the unit’s fine now. Note that the cheaper model ( I paid ?31.99) does not come with a remote control. Also, the ipod nano needs to put into the dock rather carefully, holding the unit in one hand : if you just try to push it in from above, it’s fiddly and can’t be done without risking damage to the ipod. That having been said, I’m very happy with this purchase.
