Advantages: DivX, price, small and light Disadvantages: USB 1.1 only, front display controls too small
One day last month I found our 3 month old DVD player no longer worked (back to the shop for you - if I can find the receipt). It was a really nice (though cheap) DivX DVD player. It had a USB interface so I could watch DivX files from our computer via a flash memory drive - a really cool feature. So I was gutted that the machine didn't recognise any discs put into it.
* Time for a new DVD Player *
The next evening was spent browsing around some sites on the Internet. I found some very good reviews about the SigmatekXS-700 PRO player. I've never heard of a company called Sigmatek and I thought they were one of a long list of new Chinese companies that have sprouted up from nowhere recently (it appears they are French actually).

Advantages: Nice fragrance, long lasting Disadvantages: Good value for money
I have just come back from a few days away in Jersey. While I was there, I thought I'd take a look at the duty free fragrances at a perfumerie shop in St. Helier. Initially, the choice seemed truly mind-boggling and I didn't know where to start, but with the help of a kind shop assistant, I eventually found some fragrances I liked.

Today I shall be reviewing Black XS Eau de Toilette spray (shown above), which, incidentally, is available in for women as well as men. You can buy it in two sizes - 50ml ...
Advantages: Long lasting and beautiful fragrance Disadvantages: Price!!!!
Reason For Purchasing:
Well I was bought this Paco Rabanne Xs Elle Eau De Toilette Spray as a gift from my Mother, the Christmas before last. I had never tried or even thought of trying this fragrance out before as I have always associated Paco Rabanne fragrances with men really and did not even realise Paco Rabanne made women's fragrances until just over one year ago. Well I actually received this Eau De Toilette Spray in a beautiful gift set with a bottle of body lotion and some matching shower gel so it really was a nice gift to receive for Christmas as I love perfumes and their bottles (probably more) so even if the fragrance was not to my taste, at least I had a nice perfume bottle to add to my growing collection on my dressing table and Bathroom shelves.
Well I was not disappointed at all with this fragrance and I find ...
