Tom Tom Go 300 so easy and helpful

Advantages: Very easy to set up and use
Disadvantages: Need a bluetooth phone to get up to date traffic info

...I have wanted a GPS system for some time and finally decided to buy this model after various people told me it was good. It was really easy to set up and use. You just enter a postcode and away you go. If you don't have a postcode enter the address. Only problem with this is you cannot enter house names, only numbers so it won't take you exactly to your destination, but very close. We live in the country and it occasionally looses its signal but quickly finds one again. It will also re-route you should you go wrong within seconds. Only downside that I can find is that on the box it looks like you can get up to date traffic info, etc using only the tom tom go unit but you do need a bluetooth enabled mobile phone for this to work and I don't have one! But still a fantastic buy, I haven't got lost since buying the unit. Gives me...

300 - okish

Advantages: everything
Disadvantages: everything only if you watch another film before

...something funny to happen but it didn't and my whole family was looking at me funnily, so take my advice and watch "Meet the Spartans" afterwards. Also read my review on "Meet the Spartans" tomorrow! The special features are: -ADDITIONAL SCENES of the Traitorous Hunchback and Never-Before-Seen Giant Warriors -FRANK MILLER's Vision Realised on Film 300 SPARTANS - FACT OR FICTION?: The Shocking Life of a Spartan Revealed -WHO WERE THE SPARTANS?: How the Actors Built Their Characters Based on Spartan Customs -WEBISODES: Go on Set with the Cast and Crew -COMMENTARY by Director Zack Snyder - and MORE! As you know I do not watch the Special features as I haven't got time at the moment and they are usually rubbish, but these special features do sound good! I hope I have helped you out in choosing this film. I also want you all to comment...

300 v's How Many?????

Advantages: excellent story, amazing effects, hunky half dressed men!
Disadvantages: Bit far fetched with creatures at the end

...this news very well and kills the messenger and sets about getting his army prepared for battle. He gets an army of 300 Spartans prepared, only men who have sons are allowed to fight so that their name can continue if they were to die in battle. The 300 set off in the face of danger whole hearted and ready to defend Sparta and their king. Will the 300 be able to take on the whole of the Persian Army and just what will become of King Leonidas and Sparta? This film did not appeal to me at first but after watching t many months ago I thought I would give it another go as I understood more now about the Spartans and the Persians. The first time I watched this I was constantly asking hubby questions about who was who and why they were fighting but this time I understood all of this and it did make it much easier for me to watch...

Homedics SBM-300H

Advantages: Good quality massage, does as described
Disadvantages: Can't really think of any

...I've had some quite bad back pain for over twelve months now, with the main symptoms being lower back pain and stiffness. I've tried a few of those hand held massagers and one day when on holiday in Spain I used one of those massage chairs that you pay one Euro into and get a five minute shiatsu massage. It was absolute bliss and seemed to loosen up the muscles in my back considerably so I've been in search of something similar that won't break the bank ever since. Having done some research and read reviews I decided to purchase the Homedics SBM-300 from amazon.co.uk as it was quite cheap at £85.45 plus delivery. Having decided to splash out and have the guaranteed next day delivery it arrived very quickly and I eagerly opened the box. This particular model is described as a massage cushion and is able to fit to most chairs...

The HP 300's bigger, stronger brother

Advantages: prints lots
Disadvantages: none

...splotches of makes a mess, and only starts to go sporadic when it?s running out. The good thing about these is you can get them filled for around £10 at most printer shops, which is ideal. I say that because there?s no point in refilling the HP300 for £10 because it will only give you 140 pages, but if you refill the HP300XL you?ll get the full 600 pages each time for £10. The packaging is a bit over the top. Cardboard box, foil wrapper, paper instructions sheet- it?s all a bit resource heavy which isn?t great for the environment. All in all, excellent printer cartridges, and certainly better than the HP300 range....

Review of HP 300XL - print cartridge (CC644EE)

Sennheiser CX 300

Advantages: Sound quality, bass, ability to block out background noise
Disadvantages: Very flimsy for the price and no case included

...is unbelievably flimsy and after a few months it snapped. Certainly wasn't going to pay £17.50 again for another pair. Overall the CX 300 do exactly what they say they'll do i.e. provide high quality sound with a powerful bass. Unfortunately they're too flimsy in my opinion to be worth £17.50. Perhaps if they came with a small case to keep them in that would make up for it but they don't....

TomTom Go 300

Advantages: Where shall we go today ...
Disadvantages: A few disadvantages ... but you can live with them.

...My experience of the TomTom Go 300 (TT) is not quite so hunky-dory as some others. As most of the reviews here list the TT's abilities I won't elaborate on them but will concentrate on my experience for anyone with reservations. My initial impression with my TT was disappointment, enough for me to write and complain. The TT Go 300 (currently [June 05] cheapest in the range at approx £370) omitted to include a power supply adaptor, which is almost imperative when you want to set it up properly, as any online updates or downloads need a fully charged battery? the only way to do this, without going back to the shop to buy the power supply adaptor for about £19.00, is to drive for 2 hours with it on charge - a very remiss marketing decision in my humble opinion (particularly as the adaptor was included with its predecessor...

Sennheiser CX300 - a great upgrade earphone

Advantages: Great sound clarity, very comfortable
Disadvantages: Higher frequencies not as refined as other earphones

...Listening to music... a great British pastime, and something I enjoy every day. It comes as no surprise, mainly because it has been said many times before, that the earphones bundled with the iPod, or any MP3 player, are not brilliant. The iPod earphones are better then most, but for a small investment you can get a lot more music for your money. Sennheiser are well known for their high quality offerings, but this needn't break the bank. Their CX300 earphones weigh in at under £20 and are available in either black, white or silver. They come supplied nicely packaged with small, medium and large ring adaptors for a comfortable fit. Of the three colours I really like the black, which are accented with silver rings. Being the in-ear type of headphone, comfort is very important. Out of all the earphones I have tried, these win...
