My RCA HDTV Big Screen TV









The above is a photo of my own RCA HDTV big screen that I have owned now for...at least 2 years. Me and my family are very happy with our purchase. The picture is beautiful and the sound quality even without extra speakers n' such feels like you are in a movie theater... which is kinda why we bought it because me and my husband don't get many chances at all to go out together anymore, so this way, we kinda feel like we got to without hauling the kids somewhere.

Also maybe you are thinking... it looks really heavy. Well, the manufacturers were smart and there are wheels on the bottom of the tv so it is simple to move around. I move it all the time. Picking it up, it would help to have a dolly, but just moving it around the room, the wheels do most of the work.

My husband is in the military now, but back when we bought the TV, he worked at a major retailer in their electronics department, so he has learned a thing or two about the quality of this and that. And he chose the RCA. I was a good price, and the best value for the money. Lets face it, the Plasma screens are beautiful, but my husband says the bulb in it burns out after a few years and to replace it is a rediculous price.

We paid $1000 for ours but I have since found it on the internet for much cheaper than that. (don't you hate that?!) So just click here if you wanna find out more.

RCA Digital Voice Recorder




I bought an RCA Digital Voice Recorder about 2 months ago and I am very pleased. I was surprised that there weren't enough reviews about it before I bought it to help in my decision making, so now that I have one, I thought I would pass my little bit of experience with it to everyone else.

As you can tell by the picture I took of my recorder (above) in comparison to my hand it is very compact. Easy to carry, and conceal if need be. I did many tests on it and you do not have to be close to it for it to pick up sound or voices. Even if you were to put it in your purse, or bag, or whatever, you will still pick up conversations.

Or me and my husband were just talking out ideas for a new book and he was standing away from me and I was able to sit the recorder down on the kitchen counter and I got everything recorded perfectly, so then later on I went on the computer and transcribed our ideas. It was fabulous!!! Especially since sometimes ideas come so fast to you, you wouldn't have time to write them all out without missing or forgetting something.

It is simple to operate. Does not require tapes. You will need 2 AAA batteries that don't usually come included with it, but mine have lasted a long time. I have used mine a lot in the past 2 months and it's still not dead yet. It has volume control, you can rewind or fastforward. It's very fast.

All in all, 5 stars, I love it!

If you are interested in finding out where you can get one just like for the best price (lower than I paid for mine!), just click here.

Title: Tips for Pet Digital Photography Dilemmas

Author: Dana

Article:
Pets are a member of the family, so it's natural to include them
in all sorts of family activities, even family portraits. As
with any family member, it can be frustrating after capturing
what you perceived to be a fantastic image, to find that you
would have an otherwise good picture sans the big glowing orbs
where your furry friend's eyes would be. HP digital cameras have
introduced a solution to this problem. HP's pet-eye fix ensures
natural looking results through analyzing your pet's pupil and
glint, unlike other solutions intended to remedy red eye which
work by merely darkening the glow. You don't have to buy special
software to get the pictures you want. This feature works
in-camera, so before you download, print, or email your photo,
it looks great. The feature is available in current HP models
including the HP Photosmart R837 digital camera. HP digital
cameras also ensure that you capture the best images of your pet
in motion. Capturing your pet during a run at the beach or game
of fetch can be difficult. HP's action shooting mode optimizes
shutter speed to freeze the action of your pet's playfulness.

You can find additional tips on capturing lasting family
mementos through digital photography on HP's Digital Photography
Site.
