I am very happy with my Hoover SteamVac! It has done a great job on my carpet and I am so glad that I bought it through Amazon because they had a low price. It was delivered very quickly and easy to put together. I have had a little problem turning it on with my foot–peddle you must press down on at the bottom of machine–sometimes it works and sometimes it will not press down, so I use my hand. I have two dogs and light carpet so it did a great job and my carpets look like new!

This thing is fantastic. It works perfectly, and is everything they claim it is. While I still love cuddling up with a real book, the books on here are much easier on a college students wallet. I love it and can’t wait until the end of the semester when I’ll have more time to read from it.

Omron HJ-112 Digital Pocket Pedometer

This pedometer lives up to all the on line reviews. It is not the most complex one you can buy, but it may be the most accurate.
It is extremely easy to use. Just throw it in your pocket and forget it until you want to see your results.
My wife liked it so much I have one on order for her.

A great read from Amazon’s used book rack Water for Elephants: A Novelthat had me hooked from Chapter 1. Ms Gruen nails the times and personages that inhabit her novel dead on. …and the twists and turns are very enjoyable as well. I could personally relate to the circus atmosphere in the depression 30’s as those were the carnies that visited my home town in northern New Jersey.

I bought this for my eleven year old granddaughter to play with while she spends time with me, but I find that it also keep me busy playing her games when she is not here.

I loved my Kindle 2. Loved, loved, loved. However, after not using it for a couple months due to a strenuous time at work, I pulled it out yesterday to start ordering and reading some books. The first thing I see is my screen showing me the “Critical Battery / your battery is empty” message. Ok, that’s understandable since I haven’t used it in a while so I plug in the charger and go about my day. Roughly eight hours later I unplug the power-cable and pick up the Kindle only to see the same “Critical Battery” message on my screen. The power-slider-button-thing has no effect. Searching the web for answers I attempt three different strategies to “reboot” it, all to no avail. So, this morning I contact Kindle CS. During this call, a very friendly CS rep has me repeat the “reboot” steps I’d already tried and…nothing. Reboot without power-cord? Nothing. Reboot with power-cord? Nothing. Hold down power for 20 secs, then the “home” button? Nothing.

The short of it: Since my Kindle 2 is out of warranty there’s nothing Amazon can do for me except sell me a re-furbished Kindle for $159. WTF? I don’t read a book for two-three months and my $300 Kindle is bricked? Are you kidding me? Oh yeah, the CS said my “other option” was to just go ahead and buy a new Kindle since the refurbs only have a 90-day warranty on them and this problem may arise again…

The morale of the story: Until you read that there’s been a firmware update to resolve this “Critical Battery” issue, save your money and don’t buy a Kindle. Clearly there’s more R&D needed for this, otherwise, awesome device.

What a shame, because if it worked it’s a fantastic product. As it is now, it’s a time-bomb, and expensive time bomb at that.

This is a great product. Stays right where you put it and doesn’t move. Allows you to rotate it to your desired angle. Can be moved from car to car. Love it….

I’ve had many pedometers. Checked online for most highly recommended one and this mode stuck out. I love it.
