 | Griffin Technology iTrip FM Transmitter for iPods | |
 | "Very good, albeit not perfect, solution" | 2005-09-24 |
| This little device has allowed me to use my iPod in my car that only has a CD player. Without it I would be stuck with only my CDs. Yes, living in the Los Angeles area is cause for frustration, at times, but I have found stations that work. No, the quality is not as good as a CD and I have learned to live with some fuzziness at points. But this is better than paying/installing a new stereo. In terms of the problem of having the tuning frequencies playing on the playlist...it takes about 2 seconds to fix that problem by setting up a smart playlist to not include the iTrip stations. This receives a four star rating because it does do what it claims to do...the only reason that I won't give it a five is that the transmitter does not shut off even when I shut my iPod off. If I don't pay attention then the battery gets drained and this is a minor annoyance. | ||

 | "Suddenly realizing life without knowing it" | 2005-06-09 |
| I really enjoyed this movie. I know that this is a pretty simplistic statement, but then again I thought that many of the messages conveyed through this movie were subtle and simple. As someone who can identify with the idea of walking through the haze of life in a medicated state for false reasons, I felt this movie really spoke to that side of me. There is more to life and things are not as bad as you might have been led to believe. Things are not always your fault and it is possible to find happiness through it all. Okay, this is supposed to be a review, not a personal revelation. I thought the acting and directing were wonderful, especially for a first time director/writer. Zach Braff has a brilliant way of getting his point accross in a way that is easily taken, even when the material is a bit more difficult. I like it when movies are more subtle on subjects and less "in your face." The bottom line for me is that I own this movie. I don't go out and buy a lot of movies for my collection, but this is one of them. | ||
