IPhone 3G used's review (Good Product) 『PerezDesignGroup's review, below, is an excellent one that fully describes this product. My only difference is that on my two desktop computers' LCD monitors I didn't have any problems with the gamma (as he did with his laptop monitor). Both of my monitors calibrated fine. So, unlike his two star rating, I'm giving the product a four star rating.』
(Questionable Color) 『First and foremost you need to know my background. I'm an Illustrator and I've been working with color and images a very long time. I'm also extremely adept at computers having my A+, Network+, MCSE, MCSA and CCNA certifications. I've always relied on Adobe Gammma to do the job but my Dell 5100 Laptop needed a lot of help.
Ok, so I've been trying to get my color calibrated correctly for a while now. The main problem has been my Dell 5100 Laptop showing colors a tad bit too dark. So I went out and bought this Spyder with PhotoCal software.
Installation was a breeze. The software booted up great onto Windows Xp Pro and Home and it instantly recognized the Colorimeter tool (the plastic attachment that measures the color on your screen).
The calibration is only Wizard-based (which kinda sucked). It guides you step-by-step with the following questions... 1) Is this a CRT or LCD 2) Would you like 1.8 or 2.2 Gamma? 3) Would you like 5000 or 6500 color temperature. 4) Can you adjust the color settings? Yes, No and Presets are options.
If you select No, then it starts the calibration immediately by scanning all gradations of RGB, White, Black and Grey.
If you select Yes, then it quickly scans normal RGB and then asks you to adjust the colors through your monitor until they all meet inside a thin rectangular box (I thought the calibrator was supposed to do this!). Once you calilbrate your own monitor, it starts running through all the gradations of RGB, White Grey and Black as mentioned above.
Finally...it asks you to save your ICC profile and it creates a nifty Startup program similar to Adobe Gamma that boots with Windows.
First was my 19" Dell 1901FP LCD monitor. Color on this monitor is quite nice but I decided to give it a go and test it out anyways. I deleted Adobe Gamma from my startup folder and away we went.
Once done, I was somewhat happy. The white, however, seemed rather blueish. All the other colors seemed ok. I was semi-content and moved on to my notebook. This was trickier since I can't adjust color settings and I had to completely rely on the Spyder to do the job. It finished and looked semi-decent. So being in a hurry I packed everything away and left to work.
At work...things got bad quick. I booted up my Dell 5100 Laptop and immediately noticed the colors were quite dark. As a matter of fact, my gamma was screwed. I was looking at a photo and I couldn't differentiate the blacks from the midtones. It was just a congestion of really dark mids and highlight.
So I did some research and found out I was supposed to calibrate without any ambient light sources. This was buried in the PhotoCal CD and was never mentioned in the Wizard. At the time I had daylight and tungsten lights (Reveal lightbulbs) so I guessed that's what I did wrong. So tonight, in complete and total darkness I once again calibrated both the LCD and Notebook monitor and I achieved the same results. The notebook was deathly dark and although the colors were much better off, I simply couldn't adjust the gamma. The whites on the Dell 1901FP 19" display were still blue-toned.
This product did not calibrate my Notebook as promised and it left my LCD's colors questionable. In my line of work, there can't be any questions. This product is going back.』
(Yes, you do need this, and it works) 『If the image on your monitor doesn't match what comes out of the printer, this gizmo will fix the problem. It works with both CRTs and LCD's. It takes 15 minutes and when youre done the monitor will use a custom profile that sets the mix of red, green and blue correctly, along with the brightness. You have to know in advance what kind of controls your monitor has -- no color controls -- common on laptops, or user-set RGB and color temperature controls. But the insructions tell you how to find out, and the product works with either type. Hint #1: To see the monitor controls and the calibration pattern simultaneuously, open the PhotoCal software, drag it over to one side of the screen and then open the monitor controls and drag them over to the other side. #2: Re-run the calibration after you adjust the monitor to check the results -- the software doesn't cycle back by itself.』 『Spyder lets you trust your monitor as much as you trust your own eyes. This monitor correction tool provides accurate color on your monitor. Now what you see onscreen is what you'll print -- saving you time, ink and paper. A color-corrected monitor is an important tool for any home print studio or digital darkroom. Spyder gives your monitor true color, every time!

IPhone 3G used's review (Great value with many features) 『AT&T E5965C 5.8 GHz Cordless Answering System with Speakerphone Caller ID
I replaced a failing Panasonic corded phone with this compact cordless model after testing several at my local electronics store. I chose the AT&T E5965C for a number of reasons-style, the feel of the handset (solid), ease of use and functionality. A belt clip and wall mount are included.
What I got was a well made, attractive and multi-functional unit with expansion capability (up to eight handsets). Programming was easy, the standard message simple and clear enough to use without adding a custom message, even though I did add my own.
There are separate phonebooks in the handset and the base, each capable of storing up to 50 entries, and the handset screens incoming messages. Call transfer, 3-way conference calls and last number redial are additional functions of this unit.
Two lithium batteries are included (Note: directions state only lithium batteries should be used)/ Caller ID and Call Waiting are included capabilities if you subscribe to these services.
Both handset and base are programmable with features such as ringer volume, ringer melody, remote access, and caller log review.
All in all, this is an easy phone to set up and one that offers superior performance.
Recommended. 』
(Unreliable in the long run) 『I loved this phone when I first got it but about a year later the problems started to crop up. We have the main base station and an extra handset and charger. The LCD on one of the handsets no longer lights up and as a result the characters are so dark that it's hard to see the caller id or to choose an entry from the phone book's memory. Now the second handset has a broken 0 zero; we can no longer anyone in our local area codes (703, 301 and 202). This past week we had an electrical storm and an extended power outage. Ever since the power was returned both handsets has a lot of white noise when you are making calls but when I use my OLD corded phone on the same phone jack and rj-11 cable, the corded phone is very clear. Now I want to throw both of them directly in the TRASH!』
(Good phone excellent price) 『Have had this phone for a year or more. Really like all the features in fact don't use all of them. But for the price and I need a good clear phone with awesome reception this is a great phone. I do child care so need a reliable phone with good clear reception. I can go outside and move all around my 1/2 acre yard and have no interruptions.
I recommend this phone in fact going to get one for our daugther and granddaughter.』
(Terrible Sound, inconsistant at best) 『I invested in this phone set 2 years ago. At first they worked fine, but after signing up for DSL I started having trouble - lots of trouble.
At times when talking on the phone all of a sudden I can't hear the person on the other end. Sometimes I get a high pitched squeal in the phone. Other times I hear steady clicking. I have the DSL filters installed on all outlets and I have had the phone company test the lines. There are so many problems with these phones I can't even name them all.
I have a Uniden 5.8Ghz phone that works perfectly and I've had that phone for 3 to 4 years, if not more. I used to trust AT&T, but I'll never buy another AT&T phone again.
Please, don't waste your money!』
(Excellent System) 『It has everything described in the product features. The best feature I love is the call screening feature. After one ring the voice prompt announces the caller's number. If no number is showing, it will say "Unknown Caller." I also assigned personalized rings and could easily identify the caller (placed in my directory).』 『5.8 GHz digital spread spectrum operation * multi-handset operation (add up to 7 optional cordless handsets for a total of 8) * digital answering machine with 25 minutes of recording time * 2-way intercom and paging *』 『The E5965C from AT&T is a 5.8 GHz cordless phone with an all-digital answering system, dual keypads, and caller ID/call waiting compatibility. It utilizes the 5.8 GHz frequency along with frequency-hopping digital spread spectrum technology to provide clearer reception and less interference than traditional 2.4 GHz or 900 MHz phones. The answering machine provides up to 25 minutes of recording time, while remote operation lets you check messages even when you are away from home.
With just one phone jack, the system supports up to eight extensions throughout your home.
With multi-user expandability to eight handsets (one included), you place additional extensions wherever you need them, while intercom and conferencing functions allow you to communicate between handset locations or with multiple parties at once. A full-color graphical LCD on the handset provides a way to navigate the phone's many functions, including caller ID information. A 50-number caller ID memory and a 50-number internal phone directory help you keep track of important phone numbers.
Additional features include speakerphones in both the base and handset and headset compatibility to provide hands-free communication options. Personalized ringing tones allow you to assign any of the polyphonic musical ring sounds to a phone directory entry, letting you know when a specific party is calling. The E5965C has an 8.5-by-8.7-inch footprint and is wall-mountable, freeing up countertop space completely. It is backed by a one-year warranty.
