Kingston Data Traveler 100 4GB USB 2.0

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > Computer Add-Ons
from: Kingston H. Corporation


This is a great drive for the price. It's light, it's small, it goes anywhere. I'm a law student and I use it a lot for storing different papers, briefs, etc. that I need to carry around. I keep it in my pencil case and take it everywhere with me. It works great and has been very reliable so far. It's very simple to use: just plug and play. I would recommend this to any students who are looking for a decent thumb drive at a great price.

Logitech Z-5500 THX-Certified 505-Watt 5.1 Digital Surround Sound Speaker System

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > Computer Add-Ons
from: Logitech

March 17, 2008
This is the second set of Logitech Z-5500 I own. My first set I bought for my computer and have been extremely happy with them. Im no "Audiophile" but I do have a Good ear. the Z-5500's perform well in all audio ranges and they are clean clear and powerful. I bought this second set for use as my home surround sound system on my 47" Toshiba Regza LCD tv. and I have them set up via optical cable (TOS Link) My FiOS set top box, DVD player and Playstation 3 are all going to the TV via HDMI cables then I went from the TV to the Logich pod via the optical cable and I have pure digital sound and video now and they completely rock My old surround sound system I paid $500 for and are total crap compared to the Logitechs. So whether you are considering ... Read More:

Logitech V470 Bluetooth Cordless Laser Mouse for Notebooks - Blue

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > Computer Add-Ons
from: Logitech


The mouse has worked well so far. The only negative I found is that it takes a little bit for the bluetooth to be recognized by the computer so, when you don't use the mouse for a few minutes, there is a noticeable delay when you move the mouse before the cursor actually starts moving.

SanDisk 8GB microSDHC (SDSDQ-8192) Memory Card w/Adapter (Bulk Package)

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > Computer Add-Ons
from: SanDisk


Be very careful. Amazon.com will sell you these all day but will not tell you that most electronic devices and card readers are not compatible with this card due to its size (8G). I have a generic reader, a Verizon Voyeger, and a Garmin 60 GSX; none of these will work with this card. The correct reader is Sandick SDDR-89-A15, $25, or SDDR-99-A15 ($15); at or more than the cost of the dumb card. Take care, shop wisely!!!

Logitech Quickcam Communicate STX

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > Computer Add-Ons
from: Logitech


Good little product. Works well on Skype and has good full screen resolution. It doesn't support all the software features I would have liked so if you enjoy playing around with fun image features (ie turning yourself into a talking dinosaur) then I'd recommend the next model up.

Logitech V450 Cordless Laser Mouse

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > Computer Add-Ons
from: Logitech


Pros:
- Comfortable for a laptop mouse.
- USB receiver can fit inside the mouse.
- The on/off button is convenient for power-saving purposes, but it's also nice that it can turn off by itself along with the computer.
- The horizontal scrolling is very cool.
- The battery indicator is very useful.
- The USB receiver is smaller than others.
- Laser precision tracks well on most surfaces.
- I like how you can customize the buttons.

Cons:
- The on/off button should be larger because it is very hard to press.
- I wish the software would allow me to customize the buttons to do different things depending on the program that is active at the time. Would be VERY useful!
- Could be a bit ... Read More:

Harman Kardon SoundSticks II 2.1 Plug and Play Multimedia Speaker System

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > Computer Add-Ons
from: JBL


I teach and have a set of these in my classroom. I plug my iPod or my Mac in and send clear, crisp sounds to my students while they are working or as they are entering on a theme day. My students come up and ask me where the sound is coming from. My wife teaches second grade and was just moved to a new room with a new computer, Elmo, and projection system. She can play DVD's and clips from the Internet on her computer but didn't have any speakers other than those on her computer. I insisted on buying her a set of SoundSticks II and they really complete the system. All of the music from the DVDs and CDs is clear and crisp. They are out of sight in her classroom and her second graders can't believe that all that music comes from those tiny speakers. ... Read More:

Genius MousePen 8 x 6-Inch Graphic Tablet for Home and Office

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > Computer Add-Ons
from: Genius


Notice that the good reviews come from windows users.

I got this as a birthday present. Unfortunately, even though the product claims to support Mac OSX, it really doesn't. Here is my list of problems:

* The CD included is ANCIENT. Forget the free software, the CD does not contain the mac versions.

* Even the most recent drivers from their website are bad. They mess up some permissions and upon installation and reboot, you need another reboot to fix them.

* It is NOT compatible with INK. That means, forget the handwriting recognition, unless you have some other program of your own.

* The pen works as a mouse (after the painful driver installation), but the pressure sensitivity feature does not work ... Read More:

Targus PADVD010U USB 2.0 DVD/CD-ROM Slim External Drive - Black

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > Computer Add-Ons
from: Targus


After downloading Windows SP3, my dvd-rom drive no longer worked. I spent hours online with an "expert" from Microsoft trying to fix the problem. My time is worth more so I splurged and purchased the Targus DVD/CD-ROM drive. I plugged it into the usb port and it was ready for use! I had read one of the other reviews on Amazon (a one star review) that said the tray was flimsy. The tray on my internal drive is flimsy too so I figured how bad could it be? To my surprise, this product is well made and feels very solid. The tray is better quality than my internal DVD drive. Don't even hesitate to buy this product. You'll be happy you did. By the way, I'm still working with Microsoft on fixing my problem. They even admit that it has nothing to do with my hardware.
