Good, but still needs work

I've used Quicken for several years and recently upgraded from 2010 to 2013. Upgrades to this point were way too expensive (in essence you weren't upgrading, you were buying a whole new version) in my opinion. The 50% off coupon I received at the end of 2012 sealed the deal.

I've only used the 2013 version for a couple of weeks and I'll try to follow up with more feedback in a few months. So far, so good. The program does a good job of tracking your spending, savings, debt & investments. It also does a good job for tracking business expenditures. I especially like the graphing ability - it makes it easier to visualize my spending.

Four stars for doing a decent job and making it easier to track my finances.

Set up has always been a pain with Quicken, and this version is no different. (I think Quicken has tried too hard to be everything to everyone.) Once set-up is complete however, it is easy to enter day-to-day transactions. (Note: you needn't take the time to set-up, you can just start plugging away if you want.) I stopped tracking in early 2012 due to a hard drive crash and decided to start fresh. A couple of hours entering information and I'm set for the year. (Keep in mind I'm using this for a business and have multiple accounts - personal and business - which added to my set up time.)

I haven't experienced the problems other users have reported here, however I downloaded R10 (22.1.10.2) and the issues they reported were on earlier versions. No crashes, no save lag, etc. The program has run very well for me.

So what needs work? There is still no option for setting up a Health Savings Account (I'm using the brokerage account option and my health spending is deducted from the money market), and I would like to see more user customization especially for the investments. The system makes assumptions that aren't always valid.

Overall all a good product.

This could be a very good book but it needs a firm editor. The book has likable characters, complex plotting, a good mystery and some action for those who like that sort of thing. However, it needs tightening as well as the contradictory elements straightened out, misused words corrected, focus, and an ending. It wanders and loses what cohension it started with. That said, it is difficult to put down and interesting most of the way through. I recommend it, with reservations.

First off, let me just say we all know this is a great player, and I will not go into all the praise for this MP3 player, but rather some suggestions for improvement.
1)  The battery gauge is a little faulty and often is confused.  I believe this part of the product still needs some work.  It will often show empty for a while during playback, then all of a sudden jump to 3/4 full.
2) Battery playback is not even close to 15 hours the way I play music.  Admitedly, I am possibly not the norm, by I like surfing through my burned CDs.  Listen to some of some song, jump past a few, then listen to another song.  I imagine this takes up a lot more power then listening straight through the CD.  I believe the player can streamline though and become more efficient on battery usage.
3)  My one wish for an MP3 player, is an option to streamline volume across an MP3 CD, burned from a multitude of CDs.  Ever notice how one song is really loud, then the next song on the CD is a lot quieter?  Well, not all CDs are produced alike, thus the variance.  They should have an option that calculates the average volume per song, then adjust it accordingly (Since the song should be in memory anyway).  This way, it sounds as if all MP3s you have aquired from various locations are at the same volume.  I can imagine this feature would be a big hit.
Otherwise, I am sure this is the cream of the crop as far as MP3 players, and I am very satisfied.
These are my 2 cents worth.

Overall I'm happy with my Pebble watch. The battery life is awesome and it's always easy to read. It's starting to get some really great apps now too. Here are some of the problems I've had with it.

1.) Connecting to your cell phone can take a really long time. It usually takes me three tries to get it to connect, it always starts working on the 3rd attempt. I wonder why.
2.) The glass is very easily scratched! You definitely need a screen protector. I have two giant gouges and the funny thing is, I have no idea how or why. They just appeared. I'm sure I did something, but I don't remember it going through any trauma.
3.) The charger isn't super great. The magnet that keeps it together is pretty week and you can't plug it into a wall to charge. You can only plug it in to a computer via USB to charge. It would be much more convenient if I could plug it in.
4.) There aren't many good options for covers and cases. Maybe I'm just picky, I just wish there was a bigger variety. Most of them are stickers. If there were more snap on/snap offs to match different outfits and I'd be much happier.

Overall, it's a good product. I'd somewhat recommend, just take note of some of it's downfalls.

The story line is interesting, exciting, and keeps you reading . The characters need more development. They alluded to things in the past making me question if this was a first novel in the series.  Since it is, I believe the characters need to be fleshed out a little more. Also we need a little insight into why the main character is so obsessive to really like her.

Love the concept, but the product needs more development.

Pros:
When it works it's fantastic
Decent daylight picture
Good audio

Cons:
The included screws strip almost instantly
Requires older Wifi, it doesn't work with N or AC WiFi (I hope you have a dual band router)
Lag time - there can be 30sec between the chime and the alert on your phone
Poor low light picture
Can't view the camera at will

Overall:
I will be replacing this with a Dropcam.  Maybe someday Doorbot will be ready.

The concept - the reinvention (rediscovery?) of Mordred as something more than a villain and as a gay man - has a lot of potential.  In execution, this potential was tapped, but not quite enough.

The plot is difficult to follow at times, with rambling narratives that veer off and rejoin and veer off again.  A comparatively large amount of time is spent wallowing in Mordred's chastity - too much, I think, because I started rolling my eyes at his Raging Hormones well before the wallowing climaxed, as it were.  The sentence structure also sometimes goes galloping off with its bit between its teeth, winding on with such convoluted or rambling phrasing that more than one sentence requires rereading to grasp its meaning.  Typographical errors and lingering mark-up - although not a huge problem - are also just enough of a presence to occasionally throw me from my reading.

That being said, it was still an interesting book and I'm glad I read it.  I look forward to how Mordred will continue to develop as a character within the constraints of Arthurian legend and how the audience for his narrative will evolve with him.  Still, I will wish that my local library would carry the future volumes, as I don't know that I'd want to pay for them.

I am enjoying it a lot. It could use some modification, like putting some rubber mix into it and have a good shield coat to the outside so the design is still there.

This product is pretty neat. I mean, come on. It's Star Wars! I thought this might be a cheap, flimsy sunshade, but it is actually good quality and does the job. However, there are several improvements that need to be made before this is a five star product.
1) The image is very muted. I know it is a screen capture from an older movie, but a little photoshopping should have been done to make the colors pop more. You basically have to get really up close and look at it for a bit before realizing what the image is. The colors definitely need more contrast and brightness.
2) The sunshade is far too large, even for larger window. You have to fold it up to put it in your window, which makes the image even harder to see.
3) You can see the circles from the material on the image side. I don't really know how to describe it. It almost looks like the image was printed on popped bubble wrap.

If the seller can fix these problems (ESPECIALLY the dull color), I will be happy to purchase another one!

It does it's job. The software could use some improvements. I wasted a lot of time when I got to the screen that said to "come back after I set my wifi to 2.4ghz" (which it already was) because I expected the screen to change or give me some other indication it was working. It turns out, I just had to swipe to the next screen, even though it gave absolutely no indication that I should swipe. Luckily I accidentally dragged my finger across the screen in the correct path to make it move. I think this is the reason some people say it did not work. As far as the software,

It could use some improvements. It currently has the option to notify you immediately if the garage door is opened and then nags you constantly, or you can set a time for the garage to be opened before it notifies you. The problem is that there is no way to have it notify you as soon as the garage door is opened and then remind you every 15 minutes, etc. It also needs a pause for the next xxx minutes or hours for when you are working out in the garage, so you aren't constantly getting notifications.

Another issue is that the notifications stack up, so if you have had the garage open for a couple hours, you will have a bunch of notifications, you have to swipe through and this can be confusing. It should replace the last notification, instead of giving you multiple notifications. I've had a couple times I thought the door was opened when it was closed because the old notifications stick around. I guess as long as I doesn't make me think the door is closed when it's opened I can live with it.

Works good, but needs some work. Can't tighten the wing nut that holds the plate in place unless you grind a flat on the bar and replace wing nut with Allen bolt so it won't seat on bar. Hope you're listening slipstreamer!

I have owned this product for several months and when it works, it's great.  But, for me, it doesn't work properly very often which is very frustrating.  My biggest complaint is the line up of the labels.  No matter what I do, it seems like the darn things don't stay where they should in order for only 1 label to print out.  Instead, I end up getting several labels spit out after the 1 printed one and when I have tried to rewind them, they get jammed, thus resulting in more frustration and wasted labels.
For the cost of this product, I wish it would work the way that it is supposed to.  As I said, the few times that it has worked properly for me has been awesome, but those few times have yet to outweigh all of the other times that the machine malfunctions.

I found this product worked fine, and works better than my last one, however I still have the same problem with this that I did with the other.  It has a tendancy to move, and every time I use it I have to re-align it.  I've only had for a couple of weeks so I haven't had time to fiddle with it to see if I can fix this.  If anybody else has a suggestion, I'm open.

needed some work, but got it reworked and its a viable product

I really enjoyed the story, yet even more I need consistency in the story. It goes back to the editing or lack there of.

A couple of examples which were glaringly obvious: Jon dresses in shorts and sandals to go to the beach. Later on Jon has to quickly run down the beach without returning to his apartment. Then, in the same chapter, Jon comments about wearing pants.

In the same timeframe, Jon is running from the police and meets his partner at restaurant. (He still has not been back to his apartment since there was a warrant out for his arrest.) As Jon is running down the road from the police he carjacks another guy and drives away. Later on Jon thinks about and completes trading in his car for a different one. It left me wondering how did he get his own car back?

I really like this grinder in concept, but it needs a little adjusting before it becomes truly stellar. The collection chamber that captures the herb really shouldn't have that inner lip, since it just complicates removing the herb. I also really don't understand why the kief chamber is internally-threaded, since that just seems like it'll accelerate the clogging up of the threads. The grinder feels solid and well-made, but I think if the product is revised with some of the design ideas from, say, Cali Crushers it'll be an amazing product.
