I am starting to notice some delay in processing pictures. Now I am not sure if it is this or the camera (Canon Rebel XS). But I will go get another memory card to test. The package is a nightmare to open. Capacity has not been an issue. Hope this helps.

Great case. Very durable and protects the Phone well. However, the belt clip holder doesn’t hold phone that well. Needs alittle better design. Having said that, the holder does a nice job of holdng the phoneas as a display and viewing it on a table. No need to hold your phone while watching a movie.

The book Artemis Fowl is a great book! It takes you into a world that you never thought that you world exsist. The book is about a young matermind. He is on a quest to trick the fairy world into giving him their precious gold. During the course of this book, there are true dynamic characters. There are also some very good morals of this as well. You learn that money isn’t everything and that though it might be a little weird a friendship is the best thing that you could possibly have; even when you are trying to trick the smartest technology in the unknown world. The end of “Artemis Fowl is truly remarkable. I won’t spoil it for any of you reader’s thinking about reading it though. It is a true piece of irony. I would recomend this piece of literature to anyone who as an open mind and imagination. This book truly is out of the known world.

This is the most incredible novel! I couldn’t put it down. This is the author’s first novel – such a talented writer and such an inspiring piece of fiction.

So it doesn’t have the best tools and the beater brush never stops but this does a great job at vacuuming. For the price I don’t think it can be beat. I vacuum a lot and was so impressed by its performance I bought another one for a friend.

Talk about going back in time! I remember reading this in school over 50 years ago…and what memories it brings back. Good stuff…I feel like a kid again!

This is a lot better than trying to use a windshield mount, but still. This thing slides all over the place on my dash. Its four “toes” curl up and result in the mount not staying in place. It’s big and hard to conceal – if I don’t want to remove the GPS from it every time I park, that means I have to tuck the whole thing as best I can under the seat and hope nobody sees it. It’s not terribly hard to remove from the GPS if you do it the proper way, but it’s very easy to do it another, improper way (removal of the ball from the “GPS holder”) which after a few times results in broken plastic strips on the “GPS holder” and the mount no longer mounting to the GPS holder (which I’ve now had to replace twice).
But, I don’t know of any other options – there might be some generic ones. And it’s a lot better than using the default windshield mount, which is awful and results in your GPS repeatedly dropping onto the ground or dash. I just can’t say that I like it.

THE HELP
Kathryn Stockett
THE HELP, a New York Times bestseller by Kathryn Stockett, is a novel depicting the personal relationship between black maids and the white families, especially the women, who employ them. The story is set in a fictional section of Jackson, Mississippi, from 1962 to 1964. It tells a story of what it was like being a black maid in the Civil Rights era in Jackson, Mississippi, as seen through the eyes of two black maids and one liberal white woman, uniquely three first person narrators.
Three women, seemingly as different from one another as can be, come together for a clandestine project that will put them all at risk and change their lives and the lives of others in a way neither of them has imagined. In the midst of the Civil Rights era, race relations in Mississippi are already dangerous. And Miss Skeeter, a young white woman–twenty-three years old and a recent graduate of Ole Miss, with ambitions of becoming a writer–elicits the help of two black maids.
Upon graduating, Miss Skeeter returns to her family home where she resumes living with her very proper but callous mother and her very kind and gentle father. Her older brother is away in law school at LSU in New Orleans. She is disappointed when she discovers Constantine, the maid who raised her and taught her kindness and self-respect, has been replaced by another black maid. Her mother had fired her after twenty-nine years, but no one will tell her why. “It was a colored thing,” her mother responds when asked for an explanation. Neither will anyone tell her how to contact Constantine.
With personal problems of her own and her mother clamoring for her to get married and start a family as have her two friends and former college roommates–but she doesn’t even have a boyfriend–she takes a job at the local newspaper, writing a column on housekeeping. But knowing nothing of this subject, she befriends her friend Elizabeth’s maid, Aibileen, who helps her write her column.

I’m running Windows 7 RC (64 bit). Windows was able to locate and install drivers without a hitch. Paired up my LG VX10k without any issues, and BitPim works like a champ!
I’m very pleased with the price and performance.

I would recommend this book. Very interesting historical fiction. It was eye opening to me. Quick read and one I did not want to put down.
