Logitech S120 2.0 Multimedia Speakers

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > PC Hardware
from: Logitech


I received my order of 4 pairs within 2-3 days. They were a cinch to set up and they meet my needs perfectly. I've had them about two months now and they hold up well. So far, I'm satisfied. The quality was much, much better than what I expected given the price.

Transcend TS8GSDHC6-S5W 8GB SDHC6 Memory Card with Card Reader

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > PC Hardware
from: TRANSCEND


Ordered this for $18, although the current price ($19.28) is still a very good deal.

My main reason for purchase was to get an SDHC reader for my wife's camera (previously bought a Transcend 4GB SDHC card that was itself almost $15).

The reader works well on my Vista x64 machine and on my wife's Win XP SP2 laptop.

Performance seems good. Not quite as fast as my Corsair USB flash drive but damn close.

Ordered it from Amazon, along with another item fulfilled by Amazon, and both arrived together faster than expected.

Logitech VX Nano Cordless Laser Mouse for Notebooks

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > PC Hardware
from: Logitech


Okay, so i don't demand a lot from my mouse, but after getting used to apple's mighty mouse (which I really like with the exception of a few things) I haven't had much luck finding something that does what it does as easily or almost as easily in terms of the buttons and the scroll wheel. The VX nano has even more buttons and the interface works just right. Most importantly the wheel is smooth and the sideways scroll works better than on most mice I have tried. I find it more comfortable and compact than the mighty mice (I have bluetooth and corded versions). A good and cheaper replacement for the mighty mouse. Also the engineering put into the mouse is pretty nice. P.S. I use the nano reciever in my keyboard USB slot, not a main USB slot ... Read More:

DMS 6-in-1 USB 2.0 High Speed Memory Card Reader Writer for SD SDHC MiniSD MiniSDHC MMC rsMMC

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > PC Hardware
from: Digital Media Source


I'm now on my 4th one of these only because a friend bought them cheap in bulk and keeps replacing them for free. Basically they work fine for a time but with repeated connecting and disconnecting to USB port they all eventually failed. Maybe about one hundred connections. I guess you get what you pay for. They are not built solid and the PC board inside starts floating around after only a few connections. If you don't mind replacing them frequently then go ahead and buy one. In fact buy a bunch because over time you'll need them.

Kingston FCR-HS219/1 USB 2.0 Hi-Speed 19-in-1 Media Reader

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > PC Hardware
from: Kingston Technology


People should realize if a type of card isn't on the specs sheet (such as XD and Smart Media) there's a pretty darn good chance it won't be on the reader itself... Sorry, it just frustrates me when the score of such a nice card reader's brought down by such reviews.

Anyway, great card reader. I've seen reviews claiming it's one of the fastest card readers some sites have tested, and I don't doubt it. Copied a 700MB XviD file to a SDHC Class 6 card in under two minutes. The file then opens quickly and is responds quickly to clicks on the timeline. Of course the speed will only be as fast as the card being used, but these times are fine for me.

Supported formats also suite me just fine. Again, if you need XD or SmartMedia, ... Read More:

Logitech Z-2300 THX-Certified 200-Watt 2.1 Speaker System

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > PC Hardware
from: Logitech


I bought this MONSTER in September for half the price that other retail outlets were asking.
I brought it here to Brazil with me. (It weighs a ton)
It was worth it, the sound quality is superb. If you rack up the volume to the 75% mark, distortion creeps in and it is quite noticeable.
Apart from that I have no complaints, the sound is clean and clear.
Can't figure out why the remote is wired, and not wireless!!

Canon CanoScan 8800F Color Film/Negative/Photo Scanner (2168B002)

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > PC Hardware
from: Canon


I did a whole bunch of research and settled on the CanoScan 8800F. I used it to scan old color slides from my childhood. The only problem was that the slides are very dirty and the scanner is so good that it picked up all the dirt and scratches... I'm planning on cleaning the next batch of slides first. I also used the scanner as a copying machine (direct to printer) the other day and was very impressed. I'm very happy with this scanner.

Seagate ST31000340AS 1TB Barracuda Sata 7200 Rpm 32MB Cache 8.5MS Hard Drive

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > PC Hardware
from: Seagate


Just a little over 3 weeks old and it died. Seagate's poor overseas tech support, of no help, they offer to send a `refurbished' drive (a used one) to replace what I purchased NEW. Called Seagate Corporate, no help, selecting numbers to more automated script recorded voices. No option to get to a real person or a operator. Good bye Seagate, poor service, poor drive. Save you money. Run from this company.
