bad decision.......2007-01-06

After reading the other reviews...I decided to take a chance on this product and found that it was indeed a poor purchase. The phone doesn't work at all. The answering machine works fine.

Battery wouldn't charge.......2007-01-04

For it's unbelievable price when I bought it (price has increased since then), this phone seemed too good to be true. It was the cheapest cordless phone and answering machine I could find online after extensive research and I was pleased with its supposed capabilities.

After receiving it, plugging it in, and charging it over night, I made a phone call on the very dim-lit LCD screen phone. It already had low battery and within 30 seconds or so an extremely loud beeping that both I and the other person could hear would come on signifying a low battery. Strange, as I had just charged it for a night. After repeated recharging attemps, I made no progress with charging the battery. The only remote reason I could see for this happening is that when I first charged it, I stuck it in cradle and it jiggled out a little bit, which may have meant to the phone that I had stopped it's initial charging cycle already and that was the maximum the phone would ever charge in the future. I'm not quite sure.

Needless to say, I returned the phone for a full refund through Amazon because I couldn't get in touch with the manufacturer (they had already gone out of business).

The reason I give this phone a 2 because it did not function properly for me. It looks like a game of chance to get a working phone. I decided after all that I didn't actually need a phone for my dorm room, so I have no further recommendations but I hope this review helps in your decision.

Disappointed.......2007-01-03

I have had to exchange this item on three different occasions and it still doesn't work. I finally decided to just forget it and take the loss.

Don't let the good looks fool you--Avoid this phone.......2006-05-23

One non-working phone might be just my bad luck. Two phones with serious issues and it starts to look like a pattern. Long story short, please learn from my mistake and DO NOT buy this phone. If you're interested in the details, read on. If you just want the summary, my experience with this phone is that it has serious quality control problems and should be avoided.

The handset for the first one of these I received did not work at all. I took it out of the package, plugged the battery into the handset, took out the base unit (which includes the answering machine) and plugged that in, and set the handset into the cradle to charge. The base seemed to work fine. The handset, however, didn't do a thing. No beeping (it's supposed to beep to show that it's charging), it didn't light up, it just kind of sat there like a brick. OK, I thought, maybe it just needs the recommended 12 hours of charging before it does anything. So I waited overnight and gave it a try the next day, and still, it didn't do a thing. At this point, I had something that could maybe be used as a weapon (i.e. thrown at someone breaking into my place), but not so much as a phone.

I contacted the customer service department of the place I ordered this phone from, and they sent me a replacement, which showed up in record time, 2 days after I reported the problem. I went through the set-up again (installed the battery, etc.) and this time when I dropped the handset into the charger, I heard a little "beep". I let it charge, and when I picked it up, I even heard a dial tone. Success!!!! OK, I can't see the information on the little LCD screen, but at least this one works, right?

Well, OK, it works, but sporadically. By that I mean I can drop the phone into the charger and hear the "beep" to say it's charging (and see that the indicator light on the base unit says that it's charging), but when I try to use it, I can just about get through dialing, letting the phone ring, and having the other person pick the phone up before the phone starts frantically beeping at me to tell me there's a "Low Battery".

At this point, I've given up on this phone. The answering machine part of the phone works fine, and the whole setup looks pretty cool, but if you want something that you can use to actually, you know, make calls, you'd probably be better off looking somewhere else.

A GOOD BUY FOR THE MONEY.......2005-09-30

I am very satisfied with the phone and answer machine. It was simple to program and functions well. The contemporary style is eye catching. All in all, I believe it is a good deal considering the low cost for a phone/answer machine combo.

This is a piece of junk.......2005-11-14

The color quality and sound is horrible. All light colors are enmeshed with white. Hey you get a good white screen. Forget color in this one. I used this monitor to connect to my laptop. But it turns out that my laptop's 13" monitor and speaker is way better than this one.

Don't waste money on this piece of junk.

HIDEOUS DESIGN FLAW!.......2005-10-19

I have several 17 inch LCD monitors, all of which were $50-$75 dollars cheaper than this unit. None of them have any real flaws to write home about, and the picture quality on them is as good as any LCDs I have used.

This unit looks fine when you take it out of the box, but when you try to connect the VGA cable, you notice that there isn't enough room for the VGA connector to be easily connected. The upper portion of the stand sticks out and blocks the VGA port, basically leaving NO ROOM for the cable to be connected. You are forced to bend the cable as far off to the side as you can just to barely squeeze the connector into position. Even then, the connector won't attach straight up and down. You have to connect the VGA cable at a 45 degree angle, bend the cable, and force the connector down onto the port, hoping you don't break or bend any pins. WHAT THE FU*#*#*#*#!!!!!

This is absurd. I have been setting these up at the office lately as part of a company wide upgrade. I did not choose this monitor, and I can tell you I never will. This thing is no better than your standard $150-$175 17 incher on sale, and the fact that you cannot connect the cable without bending the ##*@ out of the cable and connector is just beyond understanding. BAD JOB ACER, BAD BAD BAD.

DON'T BUY THIS MONITOR. PERIOD. Get one on sale for under $200. I see them all over the place every week.

Sure, the picture quality is fine, and the built in speakers work, but so what? My sub $200 dollar units look just as good, and the connectors were actually easy to connect.

I JUST CANNOT GET OVER THIS. THIS IS PATHETIC.

It very often happens particularly when shooting indoors that you can't get everyone or everything in the picture because the lens isn't wide enough. With the 0.5 lens you'll be able to take in twice as much area than with your normal lens. To get in such a wide area without the w/A lens, you would have to step back an additional 40% (if possible). This lens can greatly increase the capabilities of your video making.

Get the most out of your AS/400 and twinaxial cabling investment! The 5250 Express Adapters now provide TCP/IP support for PCs attached to an AS/400 Twinaxial Workstation Controller. Now PCs with a 5250 Express Adapter installed can surf the World Wide Web, share printers, share files and use workgroup applications such as Lotus Notes without requiring a separate LAN connection. A PC used to require a LAN connection to run these kinds of applications, but now customers with an IBM 5250 Express Adapter in a PC running Windows 95 or Windows NT can run applications new to twinaxial-attached PCs, such as surfing the Internet or sending e-mail with Lotus Notes over existing twinaxial or UTP cabling.
