Good
When I got this, I thought it was going to be loud. In fact, it's quieter than my gtx 295. When gaming, the fan goes to medium speed which isn't that loud and when it gets too hot, it speeds up a bit until the temp lowers than it goes back to medium speed. When I play less demanding games like Prototype, it doesn't even spin to medium. It'll go there once in a while. I was surprised given all the reviews about the card. Those were basically all lies. It is much better than my gtx 295. My 295 can play games decent enough but this card plays games smoothly and with no problems in SLi. With 2 of these in SLi, I won't need to upgrade for probably about another 3 years.

One example of how I find this card better than the 295 is when playing prototype. The 295 kind of chokes when throwing around cars and blowing them up (settings at 16x AA) but this card eats through it no problem with an fps score of 100 average with just one 480 card with SLi disabled (getting an SLi bridge). I've noticed slight microstutter. Well, not the same as the 295. It's when you jump to a high intensity scene from a low intensity scene. Basically you go from 150 fps to 100 fps in 1 second and it causes a stutter that is a fraction of a second. It's noticeable but it's not really significant and doesn't happen a lot.

Overall good product. A bit pricey considering the 5000 but Nvidia has a good rep with drivers.

Good but Expensive
I had to buy this to watch 3D on my Samsung UN55C8000 LED TV. The model is very slick and light. The touch based controls are good. It loads discs very fast. Except for 3D it is just like any other Blu-ray player. Do hook it up to internet and update the Firmware (regularly). The Internet and Apps are good. The 3D capability is good (Alient vs Monsters) but not impressive.

Spectacular
I really like this blu ray together with the 3d tv that we got. The capabilities are very good. I'm still learning all its features.

expected better from Samsung
Don't get me wrong, this Blu-ray DVD player puts out a beautiful picture when it's working, but it overheats to the point that it doesn't work anymore. Thank god for Amazon's no hassle returns policy because I had to send my first one back due to the fact that it stopped playing Blu-ray movies. Now with my new one I've propped it up on blocks so it can get good air flow. It looks super cheesy but it seems to help. I expected more for my 0.

Buyers beware!
I just purchased this player and glasses along with a new samsung 3d tv. I HAVE NOT actually received them yet but I thought I'd let buyers know that they need to buy EVERYTHING from Amazon to recieve the discount. Originally things added to my cart were from different vendors so the bill was 0 more than them being free with the tv purchase. Make sure to go into each item individually and not add all three at once because you may not get that discount. Again this isnt't a review of the player but rather just trying to save everyone a few hundred bucks!

samsung blu ray
The first player that was shipped to us did not work. Yes we tried updating the firmware but it would not play any discs. Fortunately Amazon made it easy and fast to exchange it for another player. The second player has played all the discs we have tried. We are having trouble streaming video with Netflix. I can watch Netflix on my desktop, on my laptop and on my Samsung unc7000 TV but not on the Blu Ray player. I can only guess that there is some problem with the firmware as initially I had the same stopping and starting problem with the Tv until Samsung issued an update to it(the TV).
To the reviewer who complained of scratches - there is a plastic protective sheet on top of the player. It looks like it is scratched but you can just remove the plastic. The 3D is fantastic.

Practice makes perfect
Although this product is not perfect, once you work with it a while and install some firmware upgrades it's not too bad. It is not as good as pc game mouse control, but it is the next best thing. There are some snags such as RF interference, but the firmware allows you to change the frequency to one that fits your environment. If you are one who hates using an Xbox 360 controller in FPS games, then this is the contoller for you.

Headache
Where do I start? jumpy laggy movements I have tried everything to remedy the problems. I went to the bannco forums and I see many posts with the same troubles.
People mentioning the radio frequency adjusting, shutting off router, be closer to xbox, mouse surface, this device conflicts with just about all things in my household I was told. I'll stick with the gamepad this has been some ordeal another lesson learned.

Great Skype Camera
Got this camera for Skype calls with friends. Just plug in, adjust your sound settings so the default is the camera and you are ready to go. Works great. Video is excellent as is the sound pick up for audio.

Awesome HD Web Cam
Don't have time to write much but I use it on top of my 65" tv to talk with the fiance on skype and it's amazing. The autofocus and light detection are awesome. It works fantastic and looks great. Plus having the blue led on when video is working is great. Mount is very easy and built in microphone works great.

Oh, Fun!
I had been looking for a webcam for my laptop and am so happy to have received this Microsoft LifeCam Cinema. After using this device for a few months now, I have to say it works great. I mainly use this to connect with my family via Skype and haven't had any problems so far.

The webcam was easy to install and the software, while a bit lackluster, is fine for my uses. I really like the size of this model. It's not too clunky and it rests easily on my laptop with its adjustable gripper. Because of the gripper, if you need to move the camera around while skyping (to showcase a room, animals, etc)you can easily unclip it and then reclip again when your are stationary.

The camera consistently gives me clean, crisp, widescreen images. I honestly can't say I've had a problem with this camera yet!

If you need a easily portable camera for your laptop or computer, check this one out. It's worth it!

Great Webcam
This is by far the best webcam I have purchase. This thing work with all my computers including my Ubuntu Linux computer. Very good video quality for a webcam. I won't replace your HD camcorder but it does video web call very well. You will need a fast processor to run HD video on Linux and Windows.

Not Bad for The Price!
Microsoft LifeCam Cinema is not bad for the price for a 720p HD webcam. Not only it gives out a clear video/picture, with it's TrueColor technology, even on the darkest lit room, it automatically adjust the brightness and colors to make it seem like there is more lighting in the video. Although, the video can be a bit laggy if there isn't enough lighting in the room. So it's preferable of using this camera during daylight.
The microphone of the webcam is not bad yet not it's best. I was hoping for more of studio quality from the webcam but it's acceptable. Though, it does cancel the background noise but if you are using your webcam near an AC or a ceiling fan, the microphone will pick it up real easy and can block the sound. Also you can slightly hear the AC running so it's best if you use this camera in a quiet environment.
The Auto focus of the webcam is not bad! I tried to have the camera focus on my iTouch to one of my friends (only 4 in. away from the camera) and you can see how clear it can get! The only thing that really bugs me is how the webcam tends to Auto focus constantly. Luckily, you can manually adjust your webcam settings to avoid that (while TrueColor Technology is OFF) when it comes to using this webcam on applications such as Skype, AIM, MSN Messenger, etc.
The program that comes with the webcam is alright. Although I do love the effects it came with but the program itself can take a lot of memory(RAM) to process (I use Windows 7).
Overall, I am pretty happy with this camera for the price. It is what I expected it as it describe in the product info. I do RECOMMEND this product if you want to save money a high quality webcam, this product is for you.

Great TV for the $$
We purchased this unit at Sam's Club in March for 8 not long after it came out. We were looking for a 240 Hz set 42 or 47". What sold us was the Internet Apps with the Netflix streaming - no need for a second device which saved us money. The picture is awesome and we have had no issues as noted with other reviews re: flickering etc. The only issue we had was with the remote. It would stop working after the set was turned on for a couple of minutes. If you reset the remote, it would work again for a couple of minutes. We tried resetting the remote via the Remote set-up on the TV and it again would stop working. A call to customer service and walking through a couple of tests he rendered the remote "dead". One was shipped immediately to us and all has been well since.

Excellent Choice!
My tv looks Great!!!
The only 2 thinks that i dont like about it is:
- The usb port does not work (Only for future updates)
- The internet apps does not have any browser. You have many apps but still can't navigate like on ps3....

I'd give it more stars but 5 is as high as it goes.
I can't believe how much better this looks than my Panasonic 42" plasma. The 240Hz makes all the difference in the world and the internet apps are actually not as cheasy as I thought they would be. Awesome TV!

Snow across the top line.......
It's been almost two month. I could kick myself. there's snow, and flickering lights across the top line of the screen on a few channels. I think the tv is a dud. I should have got the Samsung.

Wish me good luch fighting this with Vizio.....

So far so good but...
Picture jumps around a bit. For the money this tv was not as good as most reviews had stated. I selected the 240GHZ as I thought this would make the transition smoother. I hav enot as yet hooked it up to antennae or cable or sattelite, just ran my dvd with it. Picture is just jumpy so far. Tried a differnt dvd player and seems to work better but still jumps. I do smell burning or hot plastic while it run. I am waiting to hook it up to sattelite dish before I make a final determination to send it back. My recomendation is to hang on to the original box for a while as you may need it particularly if it has to be shipped back to Amazon. The Vizio I wanted that costco used to carry and I saw at thier store seems to have been discontinued. It was a 120GHZ and I believe it to be a much better TV>
