As has been mentioned elsewhere, the display whilst readable, isn't that clear viewed in the dark when the blue backlight is on. Changing the contrast doesn't help a great deal but is fine under ambient light. The rubberised buttons themselves also light up very brightly.
I bought the quad handset version yesterday for a good price & set up the remaining fully working older Philips Onis handset as a 5th phone - it looses functions such as answerphone access but can make & receive calls including intercom mode to & from the supplied handsets.
The menu structure is generally OK but to stop the red "Event" LED from flashing on the handsets requires too many button presses through the menu for my liking (one option is to ... Read More:

I recently purchased this item hoping that it would let me watch my videos on my tv on my ipod classic. well it doesn't work for videos on the ipod classic, works for music and photos but thats it. I tried it on the previous ipod model which i had (30gb video) the videos worked but the picture was very blurry and when you turned up the volume a weird buzzing sound came from the t.v. if you are planning on buying this to watch videos on your t.v don't if your buying it to use your t.v as an ipod speaker or to show photographs then buy it

Got this on the new o2 contract, 600mins with 1000 texts for £35 a month on the basis of 18 month contract - not too shabby for what you get I feel, unlimited downloads and MSN are my favourites.
I was aware that BlackBerry was supposed to be for business but it works brilliantly if you're a student too! Checking Uni emails, Facebook and MySpace is quick and easy - the email Push system is really reliable and easy to handle. Fair enough the keyboard layout on the handset is a it wacky but you do get the hang of it after a day.
Best example of it being particularly useful recently was when a friend and I went to visit the football museum in Preston, the GPS maps on there are excellent- easy to operate and uncomplicated to read...just ... Read More:

I was after a cycle computer that was easy to setup and didnt have wires trailing over the bike or a magnet attached to the wheel. GPS was therefore the way to go so having looked around I went for this unit. I didnt go for the more expensive Edge units as they had extra functionality I wasnt interested in. I also already own a Garmin in-car sat-nav so knew the product should be good. The system is easy to setup and you do have to update the software in the unit itself as well as the Garmin training centre that you load onto your PC/laptop. You create a user and bike profile so the computer knows the combined weight of you and your bike, this is so it can show you how many calories you are burning as you cycle. Initially the unit will take a while to find ... Read More:

I use these batteries in my rechargeable Wii remotes and they're good so long as you keep them fully charged ready for use. When being used they only seem to last 2 or 3 hours before you need to recharge which isn't quite long enough for most applications in my experience.
If you can get the 1000+ maH ones for not much more money then go for those instead, they are worth paying a little more for.
