Excellent Player for Linux & Windows.......2007-05-07
Great little player, perfectly good refurb. I run Ubuntu Linux and all my digital music is in OGG format with a scattering of MP3's. The player is easy to manipulate, fast transferrs and having an integrated battery with USB charging is a plus as I can charge it at work or when traveling with just a laptop.
Poor quality control - don't waste your time with this one.......2006-05-04
I received my YP-U1X a couple of weeks ago. It worked well for about a week although I have to say I am not in love with the controls. I used it for audio books and the same controls that allow you to skip forward and back within a track also enable you to skip between tracks. It is all to easy to do the latter when you intend to do the former and then you must tediously search through the track to find your place.
Anyway, within a week of receipt - with perhaps 10 or 15 hours of use - the controls stopped working properly at all. Attempting to skip a track ahead would reboot the player. The shut down button would only reboot the player. The only way to shut it down was to plug it in to a USB port. Soon after this the player died completely. Amazon was great. They shipped out a replacement the next day and I had it the day after that.
The replacement also proved defective, with almost the same sequence of problems. This time I didn't wait for it to fail completely. I was willing to try again but Amazon CS said they could not do an immediate replacement because the problem with this model seemed to be widespread. Instead, they allowed me to get a refund.
Kudos to Amazon. Samsung, on the other hand ......
Qualities to the MP3.......2006-04-18
I think that the mp3 is a much better product than the I-pod because it stores up to 128 songs, and it is a much more manageable product than the I-pod. The I-pod has a very large storage base, which is really useful to any lover of music because you can store all your albums. There is a disadvantage with the I-pod because even though it stores up to 10,000 songs; most people who own one of these products would waste half their time hunting for the song that they really wanted to listen to. There is much more point in spending money on an mp3 as you can download the songs you want and if you get bored of one song, then you can always delete it and put on a new song that you like. The mp3 is a much more practical product as you don't waste time in looking for a song that you really like.
Solid, but with one quirk........2006-02-27
So far, for the price I paid, this seems like a far better deal than the iPod Shuffle that was its competition.
Sound is good, operation is straightforward: it works like a flash drive, just copy your MP3 folders in and you're good to go.
The one sticking point I have found is that it is finicky about which USB sockets it will work in. It wants a socket with a good power supply, which means that it won't work in unpowered USB hubs. It won't work in the USB ports on the front of my computer, for instance, but will work just fine in the ports on the back of the computer. Likewise, it doesn't like the USB port on the keyboard of my Mac at work, and gives a "USB Low Power Notice."
Under Windows, plugging it into a USB port without enough power causes the Device Manager dialog to flash on and off, apparently because the electronics aren't working 100%. You get the same behavior in the dialog that lets you shut down removable devices before ejecting them.
When in doubt, use the USB ports in the back of your computer that are part of the motherboard.
Aside from that one issue, though, I'm pretty happy with it.
Very Nice Mp3 Player.......2006-02-25
1. It's almost exactly the same size as an iPod Shuffle.
2. The 4-line display is clear and bright with white backlit LCD.
3. Multi-lingual support (14 languages) for both menu and Mp3 tags -- pretty nifty.
4. Built-in rechargeable battery, charges in a USB port.
5. The USB jack "flips" out so there's no cap to lose.
6. The menu controls are pretty intuitive.
7. The build quality is very good.
I would recommend the Samsung YP-U1X over the iPod Shuffle. It is just so much more versatile a product with an LCD screen.

ICOM HM162B BLACK COMMAND MIC F/ M504 M604 RADIOS
Amazon.com Product Description
Enjoy complete control of your IC-M504 and IC-M602 fixed-mount marine VHF radio from a remote location with the Icom HM-162B CommandMic III microphone. The CommandMic III--which fits comfortably in the palm of your hand--in effect serves as a second station for your vessel. Need to call a fellow boater or make a distress call but don't have time to trudge all the way to the main radio? Pick up a CommandMic III, an ideal communications accessory for the deck, fly bridge, or main cabin (the mic must be located within 70 feet of the main radio). The mic sports such features as a sizable built-in LCD, an extra-large 1.7-inch speaker, and a multifunction jog dial that offers quick and easy access to all the controls on your radio, including channel selection, volume, squelch, menu settings, DSC calls, and foghorn functions. You can even use the CommandMic III to talk with the main unit as an intercom, making onboard communication easier than ever.
The CommandMic III comes with 19.7 feet of extension cable, a microphone hanger, and a mounting base for the cable connector (the connection point is nearly flush with the mounting surface). And crucially for a marine microphone, the unit is waterproof to JIS 8 standards, meaning you can submerge it in 1.5 meters of water for up to 30 minutes without damaging the electronics. The HM-162B, which boasts a sleek white housing (an alternate black version is available), measures 2.58 by 5.9 by 1.5 inches (W x H x D) and is covered by a three-year waterproof warranty.

Only half good.......2006-11-10
This USB/Firewire Combination kit works fine in the USB mode, but the Firewire side does not respond. I should have listened to the previous purchasers comments. Several said that the Firewire part did not work very well. I guess you live and learn. I still use the USB part of it.

Good home cordless phones!!!.......2007-12-26
This product has many features for the price. I had Uniden brand before and the Philips are really cool, speakerphone, ring tones, color display, small size.
The only point could be better is: it doesn't have more ring tones or the facility to download them to the phone.
Enjoy them!

Could be so much better.......2007-11-09
I prefer cordless phones so I have had a number of different ones over the years. This one is in the top half in ranking.
PROS: It looks more like a cellphone than a cordless. I have had many compliments from people about how sharp it looks and how much it looks like a cellphone since installing the Philips system. The color screen is very impressive. It even has a couple of games on it just like cellphones do. The sound is much better than my previous phone system, a Uniden system.
The answering machine system is easier to use and is accessible from any phone. The phonebook holds a huge number of phone numbers, 250, which is about 4-5 times as many as the Uniden system did. Tranferring phonebook entries between individual phones is very easy too, since the menu system is much easier.
There is a ring silencer button so when you don't want to answer but instead let the answering machine pick it up you hit the button and it silences the ring on all phones in the system.
CONS: My major beef with the Philips system is its very small number of ringtones available. The Uniden system has many more ringtones available and they could be individually assigned to particular phonebook entries. So you would know who was calling without having to read the caller ID. I am particularly upset that there is no "silent ring" that can be assigned to phonebook entries. With the Uniden, you could add an entry to the phonebook and assign it not to ring. This saves from having to pay the phone company for their "do not ring" service which is so limited (10 numbers) that it isn't worth having.
This could have been the banner feature of the Philips system if it had it because the Philips system allows you to assign phone numbers from your phonebook to one of three groups or allow them to be unassigned. Each group has the ability to have a different ringtone assigned to it so you could take one of the three and assign it silent ring if they had this and dump all of your 1-800 repeated sales calls or bill collectors to that group. Right now I try to find the quietest ringtone they have and assign that one to the third group and dump those numbers into that group but it still does ring.
The other cons are minor. The batteries are not that strong, using two AAA 750's I dumped those right away and put in 1000's, which last twice as long.
The screensavers are nice to look at but you can't add additional ones, or if you can I can't find out how.
The last negative point is that it is a little tedious removing calls from the caller ID list unless you want to remove all of them at once. In that case it is much easier than the Uniden since it is a single menu selection to wipe them all out. It was a little easier with the Uniden system to remove individual entries, though the capacity to store previous calls is larger with the Philips. Adding calls from the caller ID list to the phonebook feature is easier with the Philips, unless you want to change something about the name to be displayed. With the Uniden you could edit the name easier than with the Philips but adding the entry is easier with the Philips system.
So the bottom line is that if you have only a few people you want to store in your phonebook and don't care that much about sound quality, go with the Uniden system. If you have a lot of numbers to store and want super sound quality, but don't mind 800 numbers ringing you all day then go with the Philips.
I just hope they come out with a version with the silent ringer feature that Uniden has.
philips cordless phone.......2007-10-21
The phone was defective out of the box, so I had to pay to ship it to Philips for a replacement. To their credit, they did replace it, but I am out about three weeks time, the money I spent for overnight shipping when I ordered the phone, and the money I spent for return shipping. That being said, the new phone works fine, but the family all agrees that we don't notice any difference in the 'hi def' sound of the phone.
Philips Cordless Phone Review.......2007-10-20
Wow! This phone is great! Handset fits the hand, batteries are long lasting, viewing window is in color, so incoming numbers are easier to read. Color viewing window supports your own wallpaper, so you can personalize the image. The ring is distinctive and easy to identify from the other 4 phones lines in the house. Has an answering machine that I didn't even have to set up and using it was intuitive. This product is worth the money.
