Cons: Shutter Speed a little slow, advanced settings a little difficult to find
This camera is absolutely incredible. This is my first digital camera, and I have to say that I'm very impressed. After doing a lot of research I settled on this camera. I like that you can adjust the settings on the camera that will adjust the size, quality, and megapixels. I keep mine set on the highest settings, and I am NEVER disappointed. It does exactly what I want it to do. This camera has an amazing 8Megapixel power for its size. I have an old Canon SLR 35mm (non-digital) and I have not picked it up since I purchased the Powershot S80. In fact, I am reconsidering my need to purchase a Digital SLR. This camera so far goes above and beyond my amateur photography needs.
If you use the digital zoom and it is still not close enough for you, you can zoom in more with the computer and still maintain a highly pixelated image.I am yet to use all the features available on this camera. I have received so many compliments on the photos that I have taken, I almost feel guilty taking all the credit. Almost.
If you're looking for an incredibly powerful, small point and shoot digital camera with lots of features, options, settings, and easy to use and figure out, this would be it. It is intuitevely designed, produces crisp & beautiful pictures, and very attractive; everytime I take it out, people ask me about it. It is worth the money. I have no complaints for this product. ... -

Creative Inspire 5.1 5200
6 of 6 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulPros: Surround Sound capabilities, great sound when paired with a great sound card or other sound device
Cons: None
These speakers are great. I've had them for about3 months now. I was using them with a regular sound device that was a chipset that came with my computer. They were great, but my chipset didn't have 5.1 capabilites. I just recently installed a Creative Sound card, to push the 5.1, and other great sound qualities...and wow! Good product for the level of quality and price. ...

Best Phone I've Ever Had
10 of 11 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulPros: Internet speed & browser, features, apps/app store, google maps, intuitive & easy to use
Cons: battery life, no video capture, no mms
This is my first iPhone. While I already own an ipod and am familiar with Apple's product genius, I am once again amazed at their engineering and technological products. I have owned this phone for less than a week, and I have to say that waiting for 3.5 hours in line was totally worth it!
The new design is great, it feels great in your hand and is a very attractive design. I absolutely love the functionality and features. It is years ahead of the basic cell phones that I've had in the past. I've been so dissatisfied with past phones, and this phone is great.
However, I have to say that the battery life on this phone sucks. So far I find myself going through a full charge after one day of regular use. Regular daily use for me includes using: email (frequent use), 3G internet (occasional use), texting (heavy use), games (frequent use), ipod (occasional use). I have it set to lock and power save after 1 minute, and brightness is set half-way. With this being said, I'm there are those with a larger complaint about the batter life.
Considering all this though, this is still by far the best cell phone that I've had, and have seen. So much that I overlook this huge shortcoming...I'm willing to plug it in daily! You will also appreciate the use of many applications that don't cost you extra. If battery life concerns you, but you really want one, I recommend that you purchase a car charger and keep a travel charger (just in case you can charge while at work or school). ...
