How is the speed? Is it worth it at all? I purchased on Groupon for $20.THANKS!

My opinion? No. It is not worth it, unless you have a 1 yr old who likes to destroy things. It literally has the entertainment value of a calculator.

My 5 year old granddaughter loves it and I understand it works well. I'm not sure about the speed because I haven't seen it in person. This was a Christmas gift last year.

Awww, this is disappointing. This is the exact question I needed answered. I can't believe in two years, no one has answered it. I'm hoping someone might answer it soon. There's a 1 TB Iomega drive for $97 and a 1 TB LaCie drive for $150. I just want to know if the extra $53 for the LaCie drive is worth it.

I was most interested in bluetooth.... SO I purchased the 285 W/WT, what is the cost of the MSN Direct. How do buyers like the traffic information? Don't you think another provider will step in when MSN Direct stops???

It give very fast speed. Reviews show that this model is the fastest you can get.

Does it work well as far as speed is concerned? I am using a TP link C-9 now and the backups take a day or more.

I buy the $60 one. It lets me surf, do email and FaceBook. Probably wouldn't be enough if you download music, books, films. I don't look at many of the vids that are on FB because they chew through the bytes, and I do my settings so they don't start up by themselves. Most months I can make it through with $60 worth. Would love to find a cheaper plan, but living in the country has its drawbacks.

I own one and I absolutely love i. I recently purchased one for Molly Beth and it will be at her apartment on February 3rd. I paid around $80 for mine last September. At the current price, I say buy it. I had to pump up my last one daily a few weeks after I purchased it, but the current one is picture perfect. Of course, it did not cost me anything for the exchange, Amazon is that good to me.

I have not had any problems with speed on this device. It's a little tedious typing in the setup information with a remote rather than a keyboard but once that is done you should have no problems with speed. The only thing I use it for is Netflix and sometimes Pandora. It works fine.

Thanks. I decided to go for it. My parents have the older model and I decided that if it didn't work for me we could trade routers. It ended up working beautifully, and so far I am quite satisfied. I haven't tried out all the new features yet, but I am getting good connection throughout the house.

It's really easy to use. Far as speed I think it's pretty fast but that is more of an opinion. Some people might think it's not

thanks for your help ! connected to the router it loading a little faster (like dial-up speed) the speed is listed as 300 mbps. Is this normal? My dell loads like the wind is this normal for $400 computer vs a $2000 machine

Anyone who has purchased this: Can you please tell me how the software is? Does it glitch? Is it slow or fast? How does the navigation work? Is it completely different then Google Maps?

I brought 1 and have no issues with it. The person that made me buy it uses it to downlaod movies onto and if there was a problem he would have definetly said something. When I open my movie folder it opens up right away, again no issues with speed or anything.

The writing speed is said to be 190 mb/s and read to be 245mb/s. Looking at reviews this seamed to perform very well and close to the statement. I did a lot of research and found this to be the fastest at the time without spending over $150. I bought this one for my bro in law and I have the 32gb and both are really fast! I can vouch for the 32gb going up to 145 mb/s write I saw it when transferring a larger amount of pictures once. However the 64 is supposed to out perform the 32, either way tho, I doubt you will be disappointed. Evey person that has one of these that ik personally and online are more than satisfied!

I can't tell you what the data rate is. But I lived in the city where I dad fiber internet. I moved to a rural area where fiber is not available. I tried Straight Talk What a disaster. The AT&T Unite Hotspot has a data rate that is as fast as my fiber was. I love it. A little pricy but I can take it any where & use it as long as AT&T has service. I don't do uploads but would assume it would be comparable. NO COMPLAINTS VERY SATISFIED!!! I don't think you will be disappointed using it.

what would you need 1.3 megapixels for? regardless the images will still be crap, if you want real pictures go buy a nikon or canon, or standalone webcam for chat if you're that picky. On MSN .3 - 1.3 looks same, also saves bandwidth.bluetooth - go stick in a flush usb adapter, 15$. No bluetooth - one less way to waste battery.DVD drive - get your own standalone drive. no DVD - less weight, less battery drain.I like this low voltage core duo style, I'm gonna spring for the UL50vt.
