Didn't like it!.......2007-10-17
I have to say the sound quality was ok and it was loud enough, but the headset really starts to hurt your ears after like 10 minutes. Then after about 2 weeks the left ear shorted out. Then soon after the whole thing is now shorting out. I have to hold the wire in a certain position to get the headset to play. I take care of my things so I know the short was not my doing! It shorted out at the plug part something that you can not help. Well I only spent $5.99 on it so i guess you get what you pay for.lol.
Maybe you will have better luck.
don't buy these.......2007-10-12
I've bought several, they break after only a few weeks no matter how careful you are with them.
Worst ever.......2007-09-14
1st pair broke after month, sent to replace, second pair broke after 3 weeks, sent again, 3rd pair lasted 6 weeks. Sound distortion, "clipping" in and out. No abuse whatsoever to them... with normal usage, they just don't last. Don't even consider buying them.
Not Bad For The Cheap Price.......2007-04-22
These headphones are cheap, so one shouldn't expect much from them. If you want in-the-ear headphones that are connected with a behind-the-head neck band, this is a fine deal. The sound could be worse (although not much worse), and the headphones STAY IN PLACE, which is why I wanted behind the head neck band buds in the first place. If you're going to use them often, spend $20 on a pair that sounds better and is more comfortable, but for my rare use this was a good deal.
I bought a second pair........2007-02-14
I've purchased a number of: headphones, behind-the-neck headphones, and earbuds. The earbuds become painful after a short period of wearing them, some of them fall out easily. Many of the headphones feel like vises. Other behind-the-neck headphones move around too much or become dislodged from my ears when I move my head.
I picked this up for just under $5. The volume is louder than most of the others I've bought. The ear pieces stay in place! I can move my head around and the ear pieces don't move. I was so pleased with them I purchased a second pair.

Stylish Black Leather case.......2005-11-02
I compared a wide range of cases for my ipod and decided the most important thing was to have the screen protected and I could access the ipod whilst in its case. Apple's black leather case is useless as you have to remove the Ipod from the case to use it and its priced way above this item.
This case has a nice flap that keeps the front protected as well as a clear screen cover and allows you to open easily and use the click wheel.
Another advantage is that with the Ipod in the case it doesn't end up being too bulky and chunky like alot of other cases I considered.
The contrasting tan leather inside gives it a nice classy look for the price that you don't see on many other makes. The only downside is that the body of the ipod isn't completely covered, as the corners are exposed slightly, but I haven't noticed the edges getting scratched anymore than the rest.
Charging the Ipod with the case on is easy as there is an opening on the bottom. The only problem occurs if you are using a docker as you will have to remove the Ipod. But I think this problem arises will most of the cases available.
Stylish Case, adaquate protection.......2005-02-21
I think the case is real stylish and I like the weight of the case. I think it does a good job of protecting the iPod and it protects the screen, which is sometimes prone to damage if you are not careful. As with all cases, it is not going to totally protect your iPod, but it does afford a good degree of protection.
Not very good..........2005-01-16
This was the case I picked up when I got my iPod to protect it from scratches. I've learned that there is no point - your iPod is inevitably going to get scratched, they are ridiculously prone to this.
But, this case does little to help. It doesn't protect the corners of the unit, which is a minor annoyance. What really isn't good at all though is that the loose stitching and hard pattern that keeps the screen protector in place scratches the front of the iPod!!!! This is NOT very impressive for a utility that's supposed to do the opposite!
As well as this, you can't use your iPod in a dock while it's in this. But I think that may be true of most if not all cases.

Home Theater by Home Owner.......2007-12-26
I completely renovated a room in our basement to a home theater using the Optoma HD72 and DaLite 110 diagonal Cinema Vision screen. What I learned:
- you've gotta plan any projectors location, whether Optoma/JVC/Panasonic/etc, including distance from screen, offset from ceiling, height/size of room, etc. So...if the HD72 fits within your room requirements it should be strongly considered
- the screen is as important as the projector, so any review that doesn't tell you what type/size screen is teamed with the projector limits its usefulness.
The basement room I put this in is 7ft 9in with excellent light control. Being 110" diagonal, the screen sits a little low on the wall. However, it is just fine when either sitting or standing.
Picture is outstanding...rivals a 50" plasma
Bottom line, I can't imagine I could have the quality image I have for the price I paid with any other combination.
bright and clear but poor packing.......2007-10-25
great projector! with HD now a days..can't stand S-video anymore..
easy hook up and auto detect is just great! whatever you input, it will find the signal and you are good to go with no setup hassle.
right out of the box was good enough setting already ready to shoot and watch your favorite movie. 1.take out from the box 2.plug the AC cable
3.plug the video cable of your choice 4.play DVD! so simple!!!
while watching the intro, get the fresh batteries out which is included and watch your remote light up in the dark!
only negative is the heat. it gets hot really fast...instantly.
don't put any soft things near this fire...
and finally, i didn't like the packing they (amazon labeled box) did..
much bigger than the projector(about the size of laptop box)and it was
losely packed with just one SHEET of brown paper..what's with that?
no air bubbles, no peanuts
i picked it up from UPS and it was all shaking.. I hoped the "bulb" was alright..afterall..bulb is the most expensive part of the projector...
luckly everything was alright...but i hope these guys see my review and pack their boxes really good next time!!! it's not cheap stuff we are buying you know.....
HD Projector review for first-timers.......2007-07-02
I am writing this review in order to give some helpful guidance to those of you who are on the fence when it comes to HD projectors. Like me, you are probably wary of straying away from the norm of Plasma or LCD televisions...possibly even frightened by the notion of using a projector system instead of a steadfast TV system for your home theater. Well, I made that plunge last week and now I am back to talk about it so that you will have a little more confidence in your purchase.
I will state right now that I do NOT have any other HD projectors (nor have I seen any other) and therefore I cannot comment on this unit's pros/cons over other units. My review is just a first-timers look at the projector, its PROs and CONS, and overall performance.
I purchased this unit because I had a problem brewing with my HD setup. I have a 50" Panasonic Plasma HDTV. After using the unit for 2-3 months I noticed that I was getting burn-in due to heavy video game usage. I didn't want to plop down another 2 grand for a new LCD HDTV (LCD units do not endure burn-in like Plasma) so I started snooping around online forums for alternatives.
I am now a true believer in HD Projectors. It looked OK thrown up on a wall, then it looked slightly better when thrown on a bedsheet...then I built my own screen out of blackout cloth and man does it shine! I went from a 50" Plasma display to a 90" display (both in HD) and the 90" display cost me far less. I will also note that since this is a HD Projector you truly do get incredible images when feeding the unit a HD signal (component or HDMI).
So overall I'm thrilled that I made my purchase. Now for the pros/cons, some of which are obvious but I'll list them anyways.
PROS:
- Great HD Picture Quality
- HUGE upgrade in screen size for those upgrading from normal HDTV
- Very low noise form the fan...the only real noise it makes is when it cools off after operating (and you aren't watching TV then anyways since it is off)
- Easy to setup
- Cost savings over Plasma/LCD HDTV alternatives
- No problems with Burn-in
- If you know how to download movies on your PC then you've got yourself you own home theater.
CONS:
- Room must be kept dark for OPTIMAL image quality. Just like in a theater, the darker the better. This is the #1 problem with this kind of setup, but hey if you want a theater experience then understand it will need to be dark.
- Bulbs are expensive and they will eventually burn out after 1,000 - 2,000 hours (has not happened to me yet)
- My screen size was limited to 90" because my den is only 10 feet deep. Deeper den = larger screen
- Very slight light leakage seen out of bottom of unit (my unit is mounted up-side down so this light hits the ceiling. This wouldn't be a problem for units mounted right-side up)
- No sound system...don't buy this if you have problems running your own sound system
- Not 1080p...but come on, can you really afford a 1080p Plasma/LCD? The only units that I have seen that are 1080p and affordable look like junk when you see them in stores.
- Costly screen if you don't know how to make your own*
*I built my own screen which took about 30 minutes once I had the supplies. Screens can run anywhere from 300+ in stores. Don't be a sucker; build your own and you will not be disappointed. No painting or anything like that required if you want to keep it simple. If you need help building your own then send me an email and I'll point you in the right direction.

This projector rocks the house But watch out for fraud e-tailers.......2007-05-10
Love the projector, but the process of getting to this point was longer than it should have been b/c I tried to follow my nose for a good bargain and tried a less than reputable e-tailer....broadway, prestige, and some others are all the same....if you call any of them you get the same person on the other end trying to con you. They advertise it for $[...]-$[...] rebate=$[...]; that is a great deal until they tell you that they were just kidding.....
I did a general search on best prices for Optoma HD72 and it leads me to a website called shopcart USA, a site similar to pricegrabber.com which is supposed to compare prices of various products online and direct you to the best buy. Broadway photo ultimately had the best price, and based on store reviews I thought I would take the risk and try a retailer that I am unfamiliar with. After placing my order, I received an e-mail that tells me that they need to verify my order and to call them. Once I make that call the person on the other in verifies my information and then proceeds to tell me that there are two different versions of this product (OPTOMA HD72), a US version and an international version. The US version does not come with a lighting unit and that is why it costs $[...] (-$[...]manufacturer rebate) whereas the international version costs ($[...]) the same or about the same as all of the reputable sites online such as Amazon or Tigerdirect. To tell you the truth I don't think there are two different versions and if there are this website is deceptive in their advertisement and trying to upsell once they have you on the phone. Buyer beware!!! I always try to document my experiences with retailers because that is the only way we can be an informed consumer. So if anybody else has had the same sort of experience with this retailer be sure to write in.
Optoma Projector.......2007-05-08
This projector is very good value for money. The picture in all formats is excellent even though I project onto a wall which is covered by a white vinyl wallpaper. The only thing missing is the ability to remotely focus. If you are thinking of buying this projector take a look at the screen size calculator at Optoma.com. I made the mistake of mounting it at the same place as my old Sharp projector and the display would not fit the available space on my wall. I recommend buying the matching Optoma ceiling mount, if you intend to mount it on the ceiling.
