umbach says "Great sound" about Boston Acoustics - MCS100

We recently purchased five speaker surround sound speakers with a subwoofer. So far, we are very pleased with the purchase. I'm not an expert when it comes to the sound from speakers, but these sound pretty good to me. The speakers are compact and come in white and black. The speakers are powerful. We keep the surround sound on even for general tv watching, i.e. the news and it honestly nice to hear the little extras that you don't normally notice. It makes tv watching an enjoyable experience....

umbach says "Movie was alright" about Hairspray

The movie was just o.k. and sort of dumb. I honestly expected more. I didn't like some the racial aspects of the movie. The movie had some great cast members. I did not like John Travolta as a woman, but my 21 year old son who watched a few scences said that John Travolta as woman was funniest part and made the show.

Some aspects of the movie were good. Some of the songs were pretty good.

umbach says "Movie is alright" about Ratatouille

The movie was alright. It was a tad bit boring and drug out. The main character was cute. Movie is appropriate for the entire family, although the kids might get a little bored. I was hoping it would be a little funnier. I will not purchase the movie - once was enough. Youngest son had the same basic comments as I did. The story line was cute and the Paris setting was nice....

umbach says "Decent product for active people" about Olympus - Stylus 770 SW Digital Camera

umbach — Tue, 27 Nov 2007 02:50:50 GMT

I am used to a big LSR type of camera. I love the quality that the LSR's provide. I bought the Olympus 770 to throw in my pocket or purse when I don't feel like hauling my big camera around or if I just want to bring a camera along in case I need it. I purchased this particular camera because it is waterproof and shockproof. I have two boys so we use it on the boat, tubing, football games, etc. We will take it on our upcoming cruise and try it underwater. The picture quality is o.k. I'm not overly impressed, but I guess it is o.k. for a great sized, durable pocket camera. I'd rather have an average picture of an event than no picture at all. I did find the camera was a little on the pricy side. Overall, I am glad I purchased it....

umbach says "Best toothbrush ever!!!!!" about Sonicare Elite 7300 Toothbrush with Sonic Technology

umbach — Tue, 27 Nov 2007 02:36:56 GMT

I have been owning my Sonicare for a little over 6 months now. I will never go back to a standard toothbrush. The Sonicare works great. It makes my whole mouth feel fresh and clean. I could never get the type of refreshing clean with a standard toothbrush. I liked it so much that I bought these as Christmas presents for several family members. It is a little pricy, but worth the money....
