I will admit - the camcorder came with bare minimal documentation - and what it did have was very general in nature - which i was perfectly fine with. It comes with the following: 2 AA alkaline batteries (YES!), USB cable, A/V cable, earphone, wrist strap and a pretty nice black carrying pouch.

I played with it for a good full day - taking videos / pics / just audio recordings and transferred them over to my machine without any problems and the videos showed up perfectly. No need to convert or anything like that - so standard codecs seem to be used which makes life so much simpler. I also tested the videos on YouTube and they showed up perfect. Now granted this is a standard-definition and therefore does not capture anything in perfect high-def quality - this is a fun cam and in a well-lit environment can do the job very well.

It is cool to know that it does accomodate for a SD card and has 64MB internal memory - which is more then enough for a couple of days worth of picture snapping and recording... just remember for around $60 this is a quick and simple camcorder. If you want something light and simple to use - seriously consider this device. Perfect gift for the budding YouTube fan and we all know one.

A really fun show to watch.. I never started watching it till last month.. and figured I had to get my hands on prior seasons to get acquainted as opposed to just diving in.. and Im glad I did.. its good to know the background relationship between Ari and the gang.. as well as the overall maturation of each characters profile. Well worth the watch.. I will admit this is a guy-friendly show.. and funny.

Im off to see Seasons 4 and 5..

I walked into Lowes.. asked the friendly salesperson for something that will blow and vacuum.. I dont intend to just blow leaves onto the road / or other peoples yards.. never understood that..

Here's what I got:
225 mph maximum air speed
2-Speed Motor
3 in 1 machine-blower, vacuum, leaf shredder
Reduces 10 bags of leaves into 1!!!!

I did get tired.. when vacuuming.. this power tool does a great job! Very powerful, and its very quick to convert from a blower to a vac.. and I can easily see multiple uses of a blower.. quick way to blow dust out of my garage!! Why isnt there a tip book for guys on how to make life simple? This tool would be in that book!

This definitely allowed me to pack just enough for a 3 day trip - Im not sure of the detailed specs but the other 3 people I was with seemed to have packs that unzipped and allowed for major expansion and side pockets which this doesnt.. pockets are very helpful.

It is also compatible to carry a water bladder - which is a critical requirement.. I had a larger sized one which was for 3 litres and it slid in with no problems at all.

Bought these puppies a month before my Grand Canyon adventure.. and spent it wearing in non-stop for that month as well as the amazing 3-day experience. I will admit that my feet where the last thing I thought about.. well not really.. my feet in fact were always at full attention but the shoes did an amazing job. Waterproof, high ankle protection, sturdy and EXTREMELY comfortable! Lots of toe-room space and the standard soles did well. Highly recommended and it may cost a little bit expensive ($120) but remember it is a pro hiking boot and does its job well. Certain things you dont compromise and your feet is one of them.

The movie moves quickly and is filled with tons of actions. But it's not empty, violent filled action (if there is such). It's smart, it's inventive, it's unique and it's just SO COOL.

I don't want to spoil the details of the plot but it's definitely worth checking out and buying when it comes out on DVD!

I really do like how with a push of a button on the remote control, the bot transforms very nicely into a nice decked out SUV looking vehicle. The bot in car mode actually has the ability to take off! Definitely able to give your small pet dog a good chasing around the house. Granted the turning radius isn't that great but for the size/functionality and attractive stylings of the product I can easily over look something as small as that.

Johnny (yes I gave it a name) has the ability to perform 100+ action moves.. they range from a nice karate chop type action to being able to dance while playing your mp3 tunes through it!. Its funny how with certain products you can just expect consumers to personalize them in some way.. I definitely think that this is one of those type of products. You'll probably start seeing lots of YouTube videos showing off how their V_Bot can rock out to certain popular tunes.

Make sure you are well equipped with rechargeable batteries and of course a battery charger. This big guy is going to keep everyone occupied and drooling over the million functions it can perform.

Important Note: Show V_Bot to anyone and they will want one! This has extreme appeal on multiple levels so be prepared to handle their demands.
