This has been a favorite toy of my 1 yr old son for the last 6 months. He still plays with it every day. What is great about it is there are many different components to this toy that he has been able to learn and grow with. He started just enjoying the rattling balls and the elephant head. Then he discovered how to put the balls in the elephant head. Now, he puts the balls (and other things) in without the head. His new trick is to turn it on its side and put the balls in the front and try to figure out how to get them out. This toy has been consistently played with and has taught my son many skills.

Why show the box, the disc & the MS Key etc, when all I really got was a stack of paper – I was not impressed.
I had a lot of difficulty when registering with MS, the key seemed to be reused. My tech had to handle the whole process.

I was very disappointed in the product, the sound quality was worse than listening to an AM radio channel, if you could even find a station without interference to start with. I commute from LA to San Bernardino and if I was able to find a relatively clear channel it would not last longer than 3 minutes until I had search for a new channel.

I bought this Garmin 1390T after much research and noticed these few negative reviews, but noticed more positive and bought one. I loved the Nuvi during the first few weeks around town in NW Ohio and invested several hours in downloading all of the newest firmware, maps, and other other neat stuff from the Garmin site. HOWEVER, on my first extended trip (to Canada – above Minnesota) a 1,000 mile trip one way. The unit died in Wisconsin, about half way to my destination and in the middle of nowhere as far as my personal experience with the area and highways goes.

The unit froze on the map, leaving the impression you are doing fine. Luckily I noticed before my next intersection or I would have really been lost. When I repowered, it just flashed Garmin…Garmin…Garmin and never booted up. After having my daughter at home call the Garmin customer service, after 45 minutes of hold time, they acted like this is something unheard of (see the many other bad reviews here with this exact same problem). They said I should return the unit. Nice, I’m in the middle of the wilderness still 400 miles from my destination and all I need to do is ship this back to the Amazon web site! Hey Garmin … HOW ABOUT EXCHANGING IT AT ANOTHER OF THE HUNDREDS OF YOUR RETAILERS I AM PASSING ON THE ROAD?!?

After rereading the other reviews here who encountered this problem and had the same reoccurrence with replacement units from Garmin, I am NOT exchanging this for another 1390T. AGarmin nüvi 1390/1390T 4.3-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator with Trafficnd I strongly recommend you do not buy one. I may buy another Garmin model, but after the customer service experience and the lack of real help while I was lost on the road (the whole reason I purchased a GPS in the first place) I am not sure.

Although I did not necessarily like the ending, the rest of the book was very well written. It kept me reading way past the time I should have stopped each time I picked it up. It’s easy reading and not particularly a long story. Enjoyed it very much.
Hills of San Francisco

If you like fantasy or mystery, then this is the book for you. I would have rated it 7+ stars, but the rating chart didn’t go that high…

If you get one book a year, then GET THIS BOOOOOK!!!

Every part of it makes you want to read more, every scheme or plan makes you wonder what the next is going to be, and every time you finish a book in this series, you just can’t wait till the next.

And just the style of Eion Colfer’s writing is almost enough t make you think like you’re in the story.

Got Meteorite Men s

This is the most energetic and heavy of Tyr’s albums so far. They still do the folk songs and the traditional melodies, but they went in a much more Metal direction with this one. “Hold the Heathen Hammer High” and the title track are destined to become classics. Tracks 5, 6, and 7, are also memorable for the vocal harmonies, raw power, and just plain fun, respectively. Keep your eye on these guys!
