Usually ships in 1 to 2 days IPhone 3G used's review (La Crosse Weather Station - What to expect.) 『Good: Pretty, Accurate, Atomic clock, back light, easy to configure. Bad: Viewing angle, Sensor works only with Batteries in winter.
I did not expect a color LCD at that price, but the colorful background is just a printout on a piece of paper with a normal black LCD as an overlay. I must highlight that the backlight is very well diffused and it does not have any hot spots nor does it look like if it's 4 white LEDS that are lighting the display. The black LCD does not provide a wide viewing angle, but it's acceptable for my application. It works on batteries or provided AC adapter.
I live in Montreal(Canada) and the Atomic clock does synchronize (at my surprise!) but my unit stops responding for a minute when it syncs. But Montreal does get very cold for a good part of the year, that brings me to my worry: the whole sensor needs to be placed outside and it can only operate on batteries. I'm not sure that the batteries will survive very long at -20C. My older station had a remote temperature sensor which allowed me to place the sensor inside the house but place the probe outside.
The advertised animations are just the semi-circle moving up when the sensor selection changes. Don't expect the clouds or sun to dance around !
』
(A great weather station!) 『At first, I was skeptical that the atomic clock would work correctly because no other atomic clocks worked in our house. I was pleasantly surprised that this one works! Also, the range of broadcast is also fantastic. I wanted a unit that would do pressure, humidity, temperature all indoor and outdoor. This one does it and does it reliably and is visually pleasing. It also works on AC current, which saves on batteries and the lighted screen can adjust to room brightness. Nice feature. The screen even shows you the battery status of the remote sensor!』
(Great detailed information in colorful special effects!) 『This unit has all the important information right at your finger tips! I recommend this to anybody that is interested in weather information, this is perfect for measuring the moisture in the air and all the temperature information values, also the heat index is most important on what it (feels like) outside...This unit will let you know on how comfortable or uncomfortable it really is! I also like the special color effects at various temperature/humidity conditions...It's very helpful in forecasting the conditions too at a glance! For all the features you get at a low price, it's really worth every penny on it, so I highly recommend this to anybody that enjoys special weather gadgits like this!!! Enjoy!!!』
(La Crosse Weather Station) 『I find the station very accurate in all areas. The setup is easy, although I found I had to do the pressure several times before I got the altitude right. I would also like the ability to change the inside and outside settings manually or automatic. Other than that the only problem I have is when it is checking the time from colorado, it seems to freeze the system for several minutes. But this only happens a couple of times a day. A very nice and easy to read system.』 『* Animated Color Graphs Designed to Gauge the Weather at a Glance * Forecast Icon Based on Changing Barometric Pressure with Tendency Indicator * IN/OUT Heat Index ( F/ C) with MIN/MAX Records * IN/OUT Dew Point ( F/ C) with MIN/MAX Records * Wireless IN/OUT Humidity (%RH) with MIN/MAX Records&Tendency Indicator * Wireless IN/OUT Temperature ( F/ C) with MIN/MAX Records&Tendency Indicator * Indoor Comfort Indicator: COMF, WET, DRY * Atomic Time&Date with Manual Setting * 12 / 24 Hour Time Display * Perpetual Calendar * 4 U.S. Time Zones: PA, MO, CE, EA * Time Alarm with Snooze * EL Backlight: AUTO, HIGH, LOW, OFF』

(Not what I expected!) 『I ordered this to try because of all the great reviews, but was not pleased with the outcome. The color didn't seem to be any different than what I could get using Wilton icing coloring. Also my icing started to separate in the bag while I was trying to decorate the cake which also made it darker than the icing I had already put on the cake. I guess it was separating from the heat of my hands holding the bag. I have never had this problem with the Wilton colors. I guess I will continue to look for a coloring that can make my icing brighter and darker shades.』
(Good product) 『Unlike other sold on the grocery store food coloring, this one is very concentrated. Just use the toothpick to pick a bit at the tip of the mouth, then create beautiful color. The label on the bottle has description of the ingredient, each is 0.75oz size. I don't use it for food, I use it for my son fun playing like mixing color, add to shaving cream, spray bottle for fun. A good buy.』
(food coloring made easy) 『This product will give you a variety of colors that you can use in food, coloring Easter eggs, or just about anything you want. Excellent product』
(Ateco12 - Food Coloring) 『Very vibrant colors....the box makes it easy to store...I wish the coloring was a little bit thicker tho...you have to be careful not to use too much...would definately recommend this item overall!!』 『From Easter eggs to colorful cookies, Spectrum's gel food colorings provide a wide range of decorative touches, with gorgeous colors and an enormous range of depth. Each color--black, blue, yellow, green, pink, red, teal, orange, fuchsia, violet, sky blue, and brown--comes in a soft-sided plastic squeeze bottle that allows you to add a drop of color at a time to frostings and fillings. Paste colors are much more intense than more common liquid colors, and these will last through hundreds of fanciful cookies, providing stunning, professional-looking results.--Jill Lightner』 『Cake decorators will love this alternative to coloring drops and pastes. This gel is formulated with the necessary die concentration levels needed to achieve the most vibrant and brilliant colors available. Gel colors have a viscosity that offers the convenience of a pourable product, while making it easy to duplicate shades. Happily, gel color will not breakdown buttercream or non dairy icings as conventional liquid colors do. This set has just about any color you'll ever need for all your decorating projects.』

ANd because they just randomly pick a color, you get a color that looks kind of ugly. The chair takes up a lot of space.
The little footrest piece is kind of cool and it seems to be quite resistant to puncturing and such.
Ultimately, if you have the space get it, if not find an actual chair.』
(Not fully described) 『This item does not look like an inflatable chair in the photo, and it is not listed as an inflatable, beanless is not fully described. This is not what I thought I was purchasing. If I were not in Iraq I wold return this item.』
(Make sure you have an air compressor!) 『I purchased two of these chairs for my kids to use while playing video games. They are comfy and large enough for adults.
The material is hard to describe but it is not that sticky vinyl plastic. The two colors we got were red&yellow.
My only complaint is one of the chairs loose air and must be refilled every other day. Make note you will not be able to blow up these chairs without a compressor.

(SpongeBob Squarepants Movie) 『My two boys love watching Spongebob Squarepants so I thought I'd buy the movie to add to their dvd collection and they enjoy watching it.Great movie for any Spongebob fans.』
(Happy Customer) 『Product arrived ahead of schedule and in excellent condition. Played the movie and all works well. All orders should go so smoothly! Thanks!』
(Sponge Bob Saves the Day) 『My two children have always been intrigued with Sponge Bob cartoons. My husband and I finally broke down and bought our 6 year old the movie when he lost his two front teeth. His "Tooth Fairy" has never been so popular. Both children LOVE it. As parents, we think it's silly ... but I guess that the point ... the kids are entertained.』
(Spongebob's Big Movie!!!) 『If you are a big Spongebob fan, you'll love this! Spongebob desperately wants to be the new manager at The Krusty Krab 2. After Mr. Krabs gives the job to Squidward, Spongebob is very depressed and goes to the Goofy Goober to have ice cream with his best friend, Patrick. The next day, King Neptune's crown has been stolen by Plankton and the evidence points to Mr. Krabs. Although Spongebob is still pissed at Mr. Krabs, he wants to help find the crown before King Neptune will execute Krabs. Spongebob and Patrick head to Shell City to find the crown. (I love when Spongebon jams down onb a guitar toward the end!) Since they are a little dim-witted, they get into a lot of misadventures along the way. Will Spongebob and Patrick get the crown, save the town, and Mr. Krabs? If you love Spongebob, you'll love THE SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS MOVIE!!!』 『How many movies offer the rare spectacle of a parasailing pink starfish flying over a crowd with a congratulatory pennant clenched between his buttcheeks? And that's only the tip of the iceberg--The SpongeBob SquarePants Movieis a freewheeling goof of a cartoon, full of surreal twists as its diminutive heroes head down a dangerous road to rescue the lost crown of King Neptune. SpongeBob (voiced by Tom Kenny), an arrested adolescent in the mold of Pee-wee Herman, works at a fast-food restaurant that serves something called Krabby Patties (as the restaurant owner is himself a crab, it's not clear what exactly they're made of). His best friend Patrick Starfish (Bill Fagerbakke) lives under a rock and has an IQ in the lower digits. Still, their friendship carries them through many a tight spot as they strive for manliness. Anyone seeking a coherent world will be disappointed; in this undersea adventure, things catch on fire or seem to be surrounded by air whenever it's convenient for a gag. The jokes are often more silly than actually funny, but there's an undeniably energetic joviality to the proceedings. Featuring the voices of Scarlett Johansson, Jeffrey Tambor, Alec Baldwin, and a fully fleshed appearance by David Hasselhoff.--Bret Fetzer』 『Spongebob squarepants takes leave from the town of bikini bottom in order to track down king neptunes stolen crown.

Release all seasons before you sell the complete, or atleast offer those of us with the seasons sets an option to buy the remainder a decent price.
What a rip off.
』
(MAJOR Disappointment) 『I am SO disappointed! I bought every season as soon as it came out leading up to this fourth and final season, only to find out they weren't releasing it! Only as a box set! So if I WANT the last season, I have to buy this and have wasted my money on the previous three seasons?? How awful! You can bet I'm NOT going to be buying this.』
(In Agreement) 『I am a huge Muppet/Jim Henson fan - and was searching for the gift I wanted for Christmas. I do not have the previous seasons (just the grouped episode discs)- am wanting to get the whole set.
I, however, am in total agreement with the majority of commentors - I will not buy the set becuase they seem to ignore the fan base and go for the quick buck (figuring that some previous buyers will decide to forget their 60-80 dollar investment and buy the set)
What a shame - I was really looking forward to this set. Maybe I will go to ebay and start by buying the first three - by the time I am done, I may get a good bargain on this set so I can see the fourth...
』
(Horrible, Horrible, Horrible) 『HIT! Entertainment should have to face some sort of legal action for this. It makes absolutley no sense unless they just hate money as well as their loyal fans for the past few years. We cared enough to keep a petition going for years to get Fraggle Rock on DVD and the fact that we are being punished because we bought the first three seasons individually is outrageous. Do they seriously expect to make more selling them only as box sets than as individuals?
Please.....if you are at all a fan of the series or the legacy of Jim Henson DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!』
(Giving me cause to whemble) 『I could understand if it was next holiday season, but they seem to have skipped a step by not even releasing season 4 separately. Even if HIT is convinced to release a stand alone Season 4, I can guarantee that they will take away the bonus features that are included in the box set...and that Michael Frith poster map sounds really cool. What a predicament for the die hard fan... wemble, wemble...』

(Restoration, resolution and remix makes a 3 into a 4 star) 『If you're a Zep fan with a Hi-Def setup and wondering if you should give this a spin, go ahead.
The resolution is fantastic, the re-mix is really muscular, the extras are fun, if decent. Bottom line, if you're used to the old version this is actually better than you remember.
The fantasy sequences are actually a bit less silly- the 16:9 ratio and high resolution give them a cinematic feel. You still are gonna have alot of explaining to do if anyone under 15 is around watching, however.
All in all, great job- all rock movie restorations should be this good!

(It's Zepplin! Need I say more?) 『The classic "The Song Remains the Same" finally made it's way to Blu-ray. I couldn't be happier. The audio portion of this film has been greatly upgraded and sounds amazing. The video portion looks a hell of a lot better than the old VHS copy of this film I was watching it on. It looks great. There is only so much you can do with the old video footage but in no way does it look degraded at all. Maybe a little better than a new VHS copy. Seriously though, it's Zepplin!

IPhone 3G used's review (Muppets great! Editing not great) 『I bought this DVD and was SO disappointed when the Love is Gone song was missing! Why oh why? With the song missing from the middle, the significance of the singing of it at the end is lost. I hope there is another release of this with the song included. I really get tired of these dvd companies doing this. If I am purchasing a dvd, I should get the extras or even all of the original...case in point, Carrey's How the Grinch Stole Christmas....where is NOG, NOG, NOG? Whatever.』
(Would be 5 stars with the missing song!) 『This is an amazing rendition of the classic "A Christmas Carol" story, with an incredible performance from Michael Caine. Every time I watch it, as an adult, I get something new out of it. And the old version, with the sad song included, was enough to make a grown man cry (a true Grinch-like story that happened at my house!).
I, too, am wistfully wishing that Disney would release a ***COMPLETE***, WIDESCREEN version of this incredible classic. I bet they'd be shocked at how many copies they would sell!
I am a grown woman, not a kid, and this is my very FAVORITE Christmas movie! Maybe the sad song is a bit TOO sad for some children, at certain times, in certain situations, but that's what the fast forward button is for! And if Disney were really smart, they would just add an option so that one could either play the movie WITH that chapter or WITHOUT that chapter. Simple solution!
I'm hoping that the people at Disney will read this review, and understand that the ADULTS are clamoring for this film -- it's not just for the kids!

(A feast of festive fun!) 『"Christmas is a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time; the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely" --Charles Dickens.
Attempting to celebrate Christmas without watching at least ONE adaptation of this Dickens classic is a bit like trying to play snooker in black and white. Each year I try to watch one 'serious' adaptation (usually the 1951 Alastair Sim classic) and also one parody. Of the latter, the 1992 Muppet production tops the list. Michael Caine is Scrooge, while Kermit the frog is Bob Cratchett and Gonzo plays Charles Dickens. I dislike most musicals. It's often stated that Bollywood is the complete reverse of the Roger&Hammerstein / Gilbert&Sullivan musicals because in India it's the dialogue that's woeful and music that's good. The Muppet Christmas Carol is in a league of its own and actually excels at both! The soundtrack includes "Bless us All", "One More Sleep till Christmas" and the wonderfully festive "It Feels Like Christmas". Here, the songs ENRICH the story rather than interrupt it.
Dickens's haunting tale and the countless movies it's inspired are not just for children. Christmas joy is, in the words of Ella Fitzgerald, "for kids from 1 to 92". This is genuine 'family' entertainment... "For it is good to be children sometimes, and never better than at Christmas, when its mighty Founder was a child himself" 』
(Perfect Movie!) 『100 Snazzes on the 100 point Snazz-o-Scale. Perfection!
Please note this is my review on the movie itself, not any of it's Home Video Releases. I see there is much disappointment about the DVDs. I have it on good old VHS, which still works and still has "Love is Gone."
A Muppet Christmas Carol is a superb adaption of the Dicken's Classic. Michael Caine plays Ebenezer Scrooge. There are a few other humans, particularly Scrooge's nephew Fred, but almost all the other cast are played by Muppets. Kermit the Frog plays the ever suffering Cratchit, Miss Piggy is his loving wife. In a stroke of genius, though it's a small part, Fozzie the Bear plays Scrooge's old employer Fozziwig, who runs a Rubber Chicken Factory. Statler and Waldorf are Scrooge's deceased business partners, the Marleys. Sam the Eagle, Professor Bunsen Honeydew, Beaker, Animal, and many others make appearances. The Ghosts are played by original Muppets. Past is a small child-like creature, glowing with his hair and gowns billowing in an unseen wind. Future is a huge dark shrouded creature with no face and long arms. The Ghost of Christmas Present is a wonderfully fun giant, who can change size at will, ages as Christmas passes, and in a very unique turn is absent minded because he is so consumed with the "Now" of Christmas.
"So this is Bob Cratchit's house?" Scrooge asks. "Who told you that?" the Ghost of Christmas Present asks in astonishment. "You just did," Scrooge replies. "Hm! Well I'm usually reliable!"
But the best part of all is Gonzo the Great plays Charles Dickens himself. Rizzo the Rat accompanies him, mostly for the food. But as Dickens, Gonzo quotes the book almost word for word at times and acts as an omniscient narrator. I know of no other Christmas Carol that features Dickens himself in it, even if he is furry and purple, and this a superb development. -The music is great and the songs are a lot of fun. The songs are better and more enjoyable than Mister Magoo's Christmas Carol and catchier than Scrooge, the big budget version. The special effects are astonishing. When the Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come takes Scrooge into the future, the scene swirls into a tunnel and London forms around the two - a phenomenal effect. And when you think about it, almost every scene is a special effect, because there are Muppeteers operating the Muppets, or perhaps visuals or robotics. Add to that rain, snow, live animals such as a horse or a chicken, and it must have been an incredible undertaking. -London itself looks astonishing; snow covered houses, street lamps, bricked pavement, activity everywhere, the buildings themselves are all stylized with hardly a straight line among them. -Children will love the Muppets, songs, and humor. Adults will love the Muppets, songs, and humor as well! And everyone will love the great Christmas sentiments.
"Nice story, Mister Dickens," Rizzo the Rat says at the end. "Thanks" Gonzo replies. "If you like that, you should try the book." -A superb sentiment. 』
(Product good but delivery very late) 『Happy with the product when it arrived, but it arrived a week after the scheduled time.』 『Brian Henson directs his late father's creations in the Charles Dickens classic, the best known (and most oft-filmed) Christmas story of all time. Michael Caine plays the old miser Scrooge with Kermit as his long-suffering but ever-hopeful employee Bob Cratchit, Miss Piggy as Cratchit's wife, and a host of Muppets (including the Great Gonzo as an unlikely Charles Dickens) taking other primary roles in this bright, playful adaptation of the somber tale. Or at least it starts brightly enough--the anarchic humor soon settles into mirthful memories and a sense of melancholy as the ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future take Scrooge on a journey of his lonely, wasted life. Michael Caine makes a wonderful Scrooge, delightfully rediscovering the meaning of life as fantastic creations from Henson's Creature Shop (developed specially for this film) take the reins as the three ghosts. While the odd mix of offbeat humor and somber drama undercuts the power of Dickens's drama, this kid-friendly retelling makes an excellent family drama that adults and children alike can enjoy.--Sean Axmaker』 『Charles Dickens' classic holiday story sparkles with humor and whimsy in the hands of the always hilarious Muppets! Michael Caine stars as penny-pinching Ebenezer Scrooge in a performance that's anything but "bah humbug!" Alone on Christmas Eve, Scrooge is visited by ghosts who transport him to his past, present, and future -- and it's not a pretty sight! But along the way he comes upon poor, kind, humble Bob Cratchit (Kermit the Frog) and his family, including Tiny Tim who teaches Scrooge the true meaning of Christmas. Complete with original music and dazzling special effects, this heartfelt holiday movie is exceptional entertainment your family will enjoy for every Christmas to come.』
IPhone 3G used's review (How can anyone not love this.) 『Toy Story is a Pixar classic. And anyone who finds otherwise is, well, a nut! Can't say much that hasen't already been said. Buy it!』
(A Classic) 『My son is almost 2. He loves Buz. We watch it quite often. These kinds of movies (anything PIXAR) are a great investment when you have small kids.』
(Still my favorite animated movie) 『I loved this movie when it first came out, and I still watch it time to time. No animated movie will be better than this, in my opinion.』
(great movie) 『We chose the free shipping so it took a little longer to get here but not enough to matter. The kids love the movie and we are very happy with the order.』
(Just excellent!) 『What more can I say. My kids have watched the movie 3 or 4 times a day since they got it! I have watched it myself as well (not that much) and everytime I enjoy the story, the details, the manus... I just don't regret the purchase.』 『There is greatness in film that can be discussed, dissected, and talked about late into the night. Then there is genius that is right in front of our faces--we smile at the spell it puts us into and are refreshed, and nary a word needs to be spoken. This kind of entertainment is what they used to call "movie magic," and there is loads of it in this irresistible computer animation feature. Just a picture of these bright toys reawaken the kid in us. Filmmaker John Lasseter thinks of himself as a storyteller first and an animator second, much like another film innovator, Walt Disney.
The 10th anniversary edition of the landmark film repackages most of the extras found in the originalUltimate Toy Boxset plus a few more. Two keen retrospectives are new, one with an assortment of talents including Roy Disney and Peter Jackson chiming in on the film's impact. The other is a roundtable with Lasseter and three of the creators simply talking about the experiences without--thankfully--any cutaways to noisy film clips. There's a load of other extras since theUltimate Toy Boxwas one of the first and best DVD sets. Missing (besides the second film, which will be released separately) is the effects- and music-only tracks. Added is a whopping DTS soundtrack along with a remixed Dolby 5.1 track. The DVD has a higher transfer bit rate for a better picture, but only high-end enthusiasts will notice it. Since the film is a digital-to-digital transfer, both versions are eye-popping. A must-have set unless you have theUltimate Toy Box.
Lasseter's story is universal and magical: what do toys do when they're not played with? Cowboy Woody (voiced by Tom Hanks), Andy's favorite bedroom toy, tries to calm the other toys (some original, some classic) during a wrenching time of year--the birthday party, when newer toys may replace them. Sure enough, Space Ranger Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen) is the new toy that takes over the throne. Buzz has a crucial flaw, though--he believes he's the real Buzz Lightyear, not a toy. Lasseter further scores with perfect voice casting, including Don Rickles as Mr. Potato Head and Wallace Shawn as a meek dinosaur. The director-animator won a special Oscar for "the development and inspired application of techniques that have made possible the first feature-length computer-animated film." In other words, the movie is great.--Doug Thomas
