Advantages: good stories, good memories Disadvantages: may be dated for some
Rockford (James Garner) is a private investigator who lives and works from his beach trailer in LA. A likeable ex-con Rockford often skirts on the edges of the law to ensure that he gets his $200 a day (plus expenses) to solve all kinds of mysteries/crimes from fraud and kidnappings to suspicious deaths and robberies, he has a quarter page advertisement in the paper and the show often starts with an answer machine message that usually has nothing to do with the show that is about to start, and he drives a gold Pontiac Firebird.
I think as with all shows of the genre (even with modern shows, but more so back then) that the attraction is the "how" and by that I mean how the cop/detective gets his man, Columbo used to be great at this, with Peter Falk coming across as a scruffy, almost slow witted kind of guy, but we all know that the "let me ...
Advantages: Great quality and functionality, all round good buy. Disadvantages: Costly to buy and also costly for the discs.

Where to start, there is so much that I need to put into this review. Well let?s start about how I came around to getting this product. Well because I like all of the technology nowadays I seem to find that I like to keep up with the latest things so when I realised that I would have to resort to using my JVC camcorder that I purchased some ten years ago I decided that I was in desperate need of a new one.

The only problem was that I hadn?t actually looked where I could purchase one from, so off I went again looking for this camera in every single source that I could ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Samsung VP DC163
Advantages: Good CD/MP3 sound quality; looks smart Disadvantages: Slightly "cheap" quality; clips 1st second of MP3s; relatively expensive
annoying.
Ease of use
The control panel is generally intuitive and easy to use, following general conventional interface design. Unlike many in-car players, there are ten numbered preset buttons, although the presets 7-0 are accessed via a "shift"-style button, these buttons having other purposes otherwise. In addition, most of the buttons have a different action depending on whether you briefly press them, or hold the button down.
Recommendation?
I would have recommended this to potential buyers at the time I bought it, but this model is no longer available new. Also, there are now units that support other formats, such as WMA, and DVDs for additional storage. I would still recommend RockfordFosgate as a brand to consider. Their products are generally a bit more expensive, but overall I am pleased ...
