summarah says "A great phone with a lot of text appeal!" about Samsung - r450 Cell Phone

summarah — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 05:05:16 GMT

The Samsung Messager r450 is a great phone. It's customizable as far as functionality, and comes preloaded with a few themes and ringtones. The display size is awesome, and it's so easy to dial one-handedly. It's a pretty phone, sleek and chic, and the qwerty slider makes texting and browsing a breeze. The only thing that I don't like about it is currently only available through providers who don't allow me to create my own ringtones and add them to my phone. I did it before the blocking application downloaded to my phone, and did so with extreme ease. It also plays MP3s, and the player interface is pretty cool and easily navigated. I have yet to create favorites in here, but I'm sure that it won't be a problem, given the apps available and the user-friendliness. It has a calendar, alarm clock, timer, measurement conversion tool, tip calculator, etc. With the exception of not being able to use real-time apps or java, this phone is the one for me.

summarah says "Softened & at room temperature, it's great as a dip, too!" about Kraft - Philadelphia Sundried Tomato and Basil Cream Cheese Spread

Philadelphia Sundried Tomato and Basil Cream Cheese: This stuff is very good. The blend of flavors is awesome! I had it on some rosemary & olive oil triscuits, and could barely stop myself. During the week, my son and I have our lunch away from home, either in the car or in the vending area of my other son's therapy center. I brought this cream cheese and the triscuits to try it out for the first time. The cream cheese had softened and warmed a bit, and I forgot to bring a knife to spread it on the crackers, so I just scooped it. Dude! I could have eaten the whole box, or just overloaded the triscuits. The flavor combination is sensationally different. A bunch of different but complimentary tastes going on there. The only thing that I didn't like about it was that it was a little too salty for my taste. Other than that, it's the bomb diggety!

After about 2 times of doing that, I did try it on my Thomas' Whole Wheat bagels, and it was delish too. This time, it was chilled, so I don't know...

summarah says "Great phone -- until the down button stops working" about Uniden - DCT758-4 4 Handset Cordless/Answering System

summarah — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 15:46:19 GMT

Get a different phone. I mean, this one is great at first, but when the down button stops working, it sucks. As far as I know, you can have four handets. They all have speaker capabilities, which is awesome for our use. But there is no caller ID or numbers on the base. So you can answer on the base, but not make calls. The answering machine is very intuitive and easy to use. We have yet to figure out how to use the speed dial. We've had this phone for less than a year and have already had to replace one of the handsets for the down button not working, and it cost us $10 to replace it under the warranty. Now all of them are broken, which makes clearly hearing what is being said ridiculously difficult. It's all distorted because I can't turn the volume down!!! I find myself holding the phone away from my ear, and I still have difficulty discerning certain words. Not fun. On the plus side, the belt clip is extremely durable. To sum it all up, the phone is pretty, but generally useless after......

summarah says "Cleans just about everything - a good value for the money" about Mr Clean Magic Eraser, Extra Power

summarah — Tue, 30 Oct 2007 02:46:56 GMT

I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyeballs! Mr. Clean Magic Eraser cleaned black scuff marks off my appliances with just a swipe. They virtually slid right off! No kidding! I'm dead serious! I use this regularly to clean my bathroom and kitchen cabinets, kitchen appliances, laundry machines, anything enamel-based or painted wood (I don't know the specific type of paint, but the one that's on my white kitchen cabinets). The only 2 downsides that I have experienced with it are that (1) it does remove flat latex paint, and (2) it doesn't do diddly on gloss or semi-gloss paint, particularly where the scuffs have been ingrained. But other than that, I find this product to be extremely helpful in cutting my cleaning time and costs by at least 1/3. Awesome! =)...

summarah says "Saved my carpet!" about Bissell Proheat Deep Cleaner Vacuum

summarah — Mon, 29 Oct 2007 17:38:15 GMT

This carpet cleaner is great! I have to have a clean house, and this handy carpet cleaner really does the trick. I have two small boys, a dog, and a husband, who all track in mud and dirt on my light-colored carpet. The Proheat Deep Cleaner comes in handy, because it is easy to use, relatively light-weight compared to other carpet cleaners I have used, and is very intuitive. It is easy to see when the water needs to be changed with its tank-in-tank technology, plus the mixing indicator lets you know when it is empty of either water or cleaning solution. Leaves my carpet looking almost new! I also use this to clean my car interior and household upholstery....

summarah says "Excellent phone - sleek, slim, original that others copy!" about Motorola - Razr V3 Cell Phone

summarah — Mon, 29 Oct 2007 17:18:54 GMT

I've had this phone for about a year now, and it's just as cool as when I got it. Very reliable. Buttons are easy to see and use. The display panel becomes smudged easily, but it only takes a swipe to clean it. My biggest issue with this phone is that I can't see the time of day when I'm in a call. Other than that, I would highly recommend this phone to any cell phone user. It's a wonderful little pocket pal! Lots of features that are lacking in other phones, such as bluetooth file transfer to PC and other phones, voice-dialing, and more. I will probably keep this phone for a while before upgrading....
