I received this kindle last Christmas from my grandfather and it is by far the best gift I think I have ever received.I love how you can get almost every book online and its actually a reasonable price and if the publisher hasn’t made a kindle version yet but there is a PDF version floating around online then its simple enough to purchase the software that will convert it for you. Whats better is, being a college student I have a lot of text books to carry around, well since most text books come with a CD version it was simple enough to convert it from PDF onto the kindle. SOOOOOO MUCH EASIER and convenient!

I will admit though that last month my kindle was bumped and got an odd horizontal line across the screen that just wouldnt go away. After finding out that its a fairly common defect I contacted Amazon. Within 10 minutes I received a call from them and everything was squared away, the sent me a new kindle (arrived 2 days after the call) and were deeply apologetic about the inconvenience. This product is WONDERFUL!! GREAT FOR COLLEGE STUDENTS!

This is a a good overall replacement pack for Nerf Darts. Good value for the quantity and they work well with the Nerf Dart Guns.

10 year old grandson thought this was the “Best gift ever” to go with the Nerf Dart gun. Lots of darts to shoot his 3 siblings.

I have a variety of Class 6 Transcend cards as well as a dozen or so from other companies. It’s interesting the actual speeds of Transcend’s Class-6 cards vary widely. For example, I have two identical 8 GB Class 6 cards that were purchased about 6 months apart. The older one benchmarks (using ATTO-DISK the same software used in some professional reviews) about 50% faster than the newer one.

This 16 GB card is slower than both of my Transcend 8 GB cards. In fact it’s the slowest Class 6 card I have period. Most Class 6 cards test in the 10MB/sec – 15MB/sec range. This card only manages around 9MB/sec. The spec calls for a minimum of 6MB/sec so it still is acceptable. If you’re interested, check my review of the SanDisk Extreme Class 6. It’s literally more than 3 times faster than this card (but also costs significantly more).

It’s also worth noting the SanDisk Ultra Class 4 cards far outperform this card. But SanDisk is sort of in a class by themselves.

The good news is if you’re just shooting JPG still pics, or anything less than full 1080HD video, this card is probably fast enough. Only shooting HD Video at the highest quality settings on a higher end camera, or shooting long bursts of RAW images on a DSLR, are likely to tax this card.

I’ve also had a Transcend 2 GB card fail and I lost everything on it. While any card can fail, I’ve not had any problems with SanDisk or Kingston despite using those brands more heavily. There are lots of other reports of people having problems with Transcend cards as well (although some of those are likely from trying to use a card that was too slow for their application). So you have to balance the lower price with the possiblity you might lose everything on the card and the slower performance.

Finally, beware everything you put this card in needs to be SDHC compatible. If your PC, device or reader is more than a few years old, it might not be. I know people who filled up their new SDHC card with irreplaceable pics and video,

I bought this item after experience shortage of darts while playing with my 2 daughters. We kept on having to stop the game to pick up darts. After getting this, we can keep on playing for a long time. We’re losing these darts like crazy though. Blame it on all the junks in the house my wife bought.

This item is easy to setup and use and it works perfectly. It puts the gps unit in a more convenient location than the windshield mount does, making it easier to adjust and to read. It also moves it out of the driver’s line of sight to the road ahead. It doesn’t slip, at least under the normal conditions that I’ve driven. Simple to remove from the dash to put the entire unit out of sight when parked. This has added greatly to the utility of my gps.

These darts really don’t last long in our house. Reloading them and shooting them over and over makes them start to tear. The darts themselves also hurt at close range! But my boys love the guns that they go in, so I guess it’s worth it.

The manufacturers description is wrong. These darts do not work with the recon. They ended up fitting in the dart tag set we also had.

These work well with the nerf gun. They stick well to hard, smooth surfaces and are soft enough to shoot at one another. The kids love them!

If your N-Strike gun runs the clip feature for ammo, be sure to grab these. The other darts don’t work very well in the clips, they jam th gun, get stuck “dripping” out of the gun, etc. These are the only ones besides the whistle darts that will work in the clips. Believe me, we’ve tried! If Santa is bringing a clip gun, be sure to grab these. I’d try at the local r-us store first or target. They’re tons cheaper than this really high price of twenty bucks. Can’t hardly believe they’re this high here. Highly recommend!
