PCD BATTERY BTR8030B Razzle TXT8030

When I bought this Astro3E external battery, I was looking basically for two things:

1. High capacity, and
2. A way to quickly charge my Kindle Fire HD 8.9".

I think I found both things in this Astro3E.

The Astro3E has a battery level indicator, in the form of four lights on the front. You press the middle button, and the number of lights that light up correspond to the charge level. You charge the battery by using a micro-USB to USB cable, and plug the USB cable into a USB-AC adapter (or into a charging port on your computer, but this is a much slower way of charging generally speaking). The lights on the Astro3E blink when the battery is charging, to indicate the charge status, and the lights go out completely when the battery is full.

To charge devices with the battery, plug the device into one of the USB ports on the bottom of the battery, then press the middle button to begin charging. The two ports are labeled "Apple" and "Android" respectively. I don't have any Apple devices, so I haven't actually been able to find any difference between the two ports.

Anker sells two different external batteries with the same capacity, 10,000mAh: the Anker� Astro3 and the Anker� Astro3E. Here are the main differences, according to Anker customer support on Amazon:

"1, Astro3 can only be charged via AC adapter,while Astro3E can be charged via USB port of Laptop/PC/wall charger.
2, The maximum current of Astro3 is 2A,while Astro3E is 3A.
3, Astro3 has a DC output(9V~12V) which can charge some cameras,while Astro3E only have USB output(5V)."

So, in my words:

1. The Astro3 can only be charged with the AC adapter they provide you. The plug is proprietary. The Astro3E can be charged with any micro-USB to USB cable and USB-AC adapter, but be sure that your AC adapter has an output current of 1A or higher (check the adapter to make sure).
2. The Astro3 can charge devices that require a 2A current, while the Astro3E can charge faster at 3A. If your device doesn't need that much current though, then the two batteries will probably behave the same way.
3. Astro3 has a DC output, while the 3E doesn't. This may or may not be relevant to you.
4. Astro3 comes with more adapters so that more devices can be plugged into it, while the 3E comes with just 4 adapters, for micro-USB, mini-USB, and two others I don't recognize.

So if you're trying to decide between these two battery packs, hopefully these differences will help you.

Nine West Balboa Medium Black

Just received this must bag in the mail, and man is it great! It's so huge and roomy, with a moveable divider to keep your mutes from denting each other, and the padding is so thick and soft, just what you need to protect your nice metal trombone mutes. I was able to fit in my Tom Crown cup mute, Jo-Ral straight mute, Stonelined straight mute, Stonelined bucket mute, and a toilet plunger. Heck, if I owned a pixie mute, it would fit in there with room too!

It comes with a luggage tag, and a shoulder strap too for ease of carrying. There's also a big front zippered section on the outside of the bag, perfect for holding your various trombone supplies.

I'm not sure if I would recommend this bag to bass trombone players, as those mutes are massive. I'm not sure if you could fit more than two bass trombone mutes in it, but I don't own any, so I can't say.

I wish that someone else had reviewed this bag before me, because if they had, I would have ordered it a few years ago when I started needing mutes on a regular basis. Protect really should have given some dimensions or a better description of the bag at the very least. It's a great bag, and I don't see why any trombone player needing to carry mutes would be without it!

This is just a great little device that allows me to receive and place calls on two separate lines with Google Voice accounts. I use this for just that -- so I can't comment on some of the fancier capabilities of this little gem of a device. I have one line dedicated as a business line and my business phone is connected to the first port. The other line is for our house phone and thus the base unit for that phone is connected to the second port. We have several satellite phones around the house that also feed into that base phone wirelessly.

Just like that we've replaced a 35-40 dollar monthly phone bill (which didn't even include long distance!) for about a 75 dollar flat fee. Of course it won't stay free if Google Voice starts charging (as most believe they will), but I can't believe it will be anywhere near our old costs.

I'm somewhat technically inclined and the whole setup and configuration went smoothly. I'm guessing this would be more daunting for someone with no technical know-how whatsoever. For those folks, I suggest using your "phone a friend" option as we all tend to know at least one person with some moderate tech savvy.

eForCity Snap Rubber Coated Apple

Pros:
+ Just sit your device on the device and voila, charging.
+ Can charge in portrait or landscape view
+ Exhibition mode which is like a fancy screen saver. When the tablet "sleeps" on the tablet you can show a clock, calendar, a pretty cool facebook app, and whatever exhibition app that you can find in the app catalog.
+ Dock can be adjusted for best viewing angle
+ It charges while the case is still on. It seems like it can penetrate through thick layers (thicker cases, or the cover flipped open) and still charges the device.

Cons:
- I wish it were more mobile. The cord has a usb on one end to plug into a power supply, but the other end is stuck to the charger. I can't just remove the plug and take the dock with me to work and then plug it into a different cord there.
- With the case on and open, it can sometimes slide off the charger. Not slide off in a manner that'll fall to it's death, but slide off to the point where it's not charging anymore. Rarely happens though.
- Tablet only charges with the camera at the top, or the camera is on the left. In other words, there's 4 ways to place the tablet on the charger, but only 2 of them will actually charge it. To a new user, it's not obvious which way is right-side up, so they could set it upsidedown, and it's not gonna charge.

LG Optimus L9 P769 P760

Just received the Belkin bluetooth keyboard Folio case. The Fire Hd 8.9 fits in it perfectly. There are cut out in the sides to allow for inserting cords, turning on and off, etc. The case seems to be well made. Of what material, I don't know. It looks like leather but there are many good imitations these days. It looks well-made to me as the stitches are strong and even. Some of the inside is tan colored suede like material. The Kindle Fire HD fits very well into one side of the case with the bottom material that is tucked up and under the kindle with a small velcro catch to hold in place. There is a magnetic catch that holds the case closed. Opening and closing the case has had no effect on turning on or off the kindle hd.

The bluetooth keyboard is hard plastic and the keys are responsive. Once the fire hd bluetooth is turned on and the keyboard was turned on, they paired easily. The keyboard appears lightweight, sturdy and is very functional. Attaches to the other side of the cover with velcro in each corner. As pictured, it can be removed from the velcro for other positioning options. There is an on/off switch on the bottom corner.

It came with a cord with two different sizes USB sockets. One the size of the kindle and the other is the like those commonly found on computers. Edit-- I found the small insert of instructions afterall. The cord is to charge the keyboard and has a amber led that will go out when the device is charged. The status led light will flash blue if not paired. There are specific instructions on how to pair with the fire hd. Pairing will only need to be redone if pairing with a different device reportedly. The keyboard has a battery saving mode.

I will try to add more information as I experienced them using this keyboard with the tablet. For those that have little experience with tablets as I do, maybe this info will be useful. Many of the functions of the keyboard do not work as a keyboard normally would. Such as "control and A" does not select 'Highlight all" option so then, one can change the font, delete, copy or whatever. So far, just the basic keyboard functions such as typing letters, delete, caps, etc. seem to work well. Maybe it will improve with experience.

One new experience that I do not like is that when the battery on the kindle hd is low, one can not plug the fire in to charge and also use the keyboard at the same time. The plug is on the bottom as situated when using the case so it interfers. This may be the case with all tablet cases--I do not know.

By the way, the keyboard has that it was developed in California and made in China.

Portable smartphone typing efficiency

Samsung Galaxy I8190 Gt i8190 Shipping

My big fingers span a few keys on a smartphone. I kept hoping it would improve. Getting a stylus is the only significant improvement in typing speed and reduction in typos that I have found. These are a great size for portability. Big enough to get a grip on them and tap away with them accurately, but small enough to toss in a pocket and not notice them. The lanyard with the plastic plug that goes into the headphone jack is an interesting solution that I am not sure if it is that great, since you have to unplug it to use the stylus, and it kills your sound. But I won't even dock a star for that nit. There is a tiny learning curve to get used to fluently use the right pressure and duration. Huge time saver for me. Easy to lose, which is not their fault. Cheap enough to buy a steady supply and give a few away to friends too. I haven't given them the laundry test yet. I am sure that will happen eventually...haha

I am very happy with the Magellan RoadMate 5230T-LM (man, that's a long model number!) it's just such a good GPS Navigator and much more!

The 5230T-LM is very accurate at saving you time during trips, you can set it up to give you the fastest route or the shortest distance to your destination, which in many cases, is not the same route. I purposely "got lost" many times to test how accurate the unit was. I would assign a "point of interest" and make the wrong turns just to see how long it would take it to catch up to me, let me tell you it's fast! in most cases it will have a new route to follow before I even hit the next intersection.

During traffic jams, a small timer will appear right next to the traffic warning sign, which tells you how many minutes it estimates you will be stuck in there. Touch the warning sign and it will give you am alternate route to follow. It will compare both routes for you and give you an estimated arrival time for each one. At this point you can opt to avoid traffic or deal with it. A traffic jam does not necessarily mean that it will be the most time consuming route to get to your destination. You definitely need this feature if you live in one of the crowded cities.

The highway lane assist is one of those features that you might not think you need unless you had to deal with lower end GPS units that don't offer such features. This feature helps you make sure that you are choosing the correct lane to exit during a freeway interchange. You'll be glad you have this feature, trust me!

A cellular miracle!

Microcell Wireless Cellular Booster Antenna

I've used a lot of different bluetooth headsets. I have had a bad habit of losing them (they're so small). I had been a devout user of the Motorola H17 for the past two years. In price to performance I thought it was the best bang for your buck. Recently though, I've had a hard time finding quality replacements and not refurbishments with crappy battery life. So, after ordering replacement after replacement and several returns I decided to try out the newer Motorola H730 due to the good reviews. Thankfully, I have not been disappointed.

Design/Comfort: 8/10
+ The H730 is a little large, heavier, and thus more conspicuous than the H17, but it's not as large or heavy as many of the Plantronics Voyager models I've used. Unlike the H17, the hook for the H730 fits comfortably around the ear and the device feels very snug. The speaker does not protrude and lies flat against your ear, but because it's made of plastic and there aren't any custom fitted gel pads for the device it can get uncomfortable at times during long rides (no worse than many over the ear headphones). Both, the H730 and H17 use a flip boom design to turn on the device and I'm big fan of that. Since, the H730 is noticeably larger than the H17 flipping the boom on the H730 to answer a call sometimes requires you to push the device slightly away from your face to open. It's not as seamless as it was using the H17 because the boom is longer. Either way, if you haven't used a flip boom headset before I think you'd prefer it.

Use: 9/10

+ Both, the H730 and H17 use a voice prompt notification system. It removes the guesswork and frustration of having to count blinking lights, beeps, or gauge whatever offish color the OEM uses to indicate the battery level. It tells you the level and which phone is connected whenever you flip the boom to turn on the device. It can get annoying at times if you're walking just outside the range for the connection and it keeps talking over and over. I've had this happen when paired with two devices that conflicted with each other. The range on the device is very good and in the top tier of BT headsets I've used. I easily achieve a range of about 20 feet in most circumstances. It can be more or less dependent on other external factors.

+ Noise cancellation is good, but not as good as it was for H17 because of the dual mic placement. I've rode with the down on the highway and once I rode with the top down inside a convertible going about 40MPH on non-windy day and I was still able to be understood using the H17. The H730 doesn't work as well with the windows rolled down if the wind is blowing too hard from a certain direction going 25MPH. The H730 doesn't do as good of a job blocking background noise, but it's still far better than those without any noise cancellation.

+ Battery life is where the H730 gets a huge nod over the H17 or any other bluetooth device I've ever used. The battery life is incredible for such a small device, thus small battery. The battery life is rated for up to 12 hours of talk time, and my bluetooth easily outlasts my phone for a change. The standby time is where it really excels. I expect that I get over 9 hours of actual talk time spread between 3-5 days throughout the week. and I only have to charge this once or twice a week talking on the phone about an hour a day. I've gone out of town for the good part of a week forgetting my BT and to close the boom (thus it was on the whole time). I came back and the battery was still on high and I had enough battery for several days.

Overall, I'd rate this a 9/10. For the price, I think it was an excellent purchase. Buyer beware of refurbished models, and I also learned from my mistakes of leaving my bluetooth in the car when it's very hot or cold and overcharging. These can dramatically affect performance and reduce the battery life. I just take it with me now and keep it in my pocket. This way it's easier to fall out and get lost so I have a reason to upgrade.

Hopefully, this review helps you. Thanks for reading.
