better than you'd think

I have used these extensively both for typing and knitting, and I find that when I wear them my hands and wrists feel fine. When I don't wear them, I notice how tired my hands and wrists get. They are not meant to fit snugly, and the material may at first seem thin and cheap, but mine hold up well. My brother's a professional writer, often typing 4-6 hours a day, and he won't work without them. He's the one that got my whole family wearing these for paper writing, book writing, and any other repetitive hand activities.

Well, I would have to say, this is not as good as I would have expected. After listening to "Curb" and "The State", it just seemed a bit to commercial. But, back with the good thoughts, this album deserves to be in every rock lovers sound system. From Chad's beautiful vocals, to Nik's pounding drums, this CD is brillient. some of the stand outs, (other than the 2 singles) are "Where Do I Hide?" yet another of the songs based on a true event, "Woke Up This Morning" (about Chad and Mikes Grandmother, among other things), and "Good Times Gone". GTG is a bit on the softer side, contrary to other Nickelback, but, is a lovely song nonetheless. From "Never Again" to Good Times Gone", this is a bloody good album. Now go out and buy it :-D
Blessed be,
Ashlii

I've been listening to this new CD of theirs for a little while now, and it's allright. It wasn't what I thought it'd be, but after listening to it a few times, some of the songs became catchier. My favorites are Pain, Drugs or Me, Polaris, and Night Drive. I have their last CD, Bleed American, and the songs were really catchy and more upbeat. This CD is definitely mellow, but not altogether displeasing. I'd recommend it if you don't have high expectations of what this CD should sound like. It is actually quite good.

I own this soundtrack already and I thought it would be pretty good.  At first, I thought it was okay until I played it again and again.  It finally grabbed me and made me tune in more.  It was better than I thought it would  be. :)

I didn't expect much from this album, but was very pleasantly surprised when I first listened to it.  I love half the songs on here.  Think about how many CD's you have that you actually love half the songs on the CD...  There probably aren't many.  So, again, happily surprised and haven't stopped listening to the songs (in a playlist) regularly.  It's great "drive home after work" music.  Check it out, it's worth the effort.

I hate to say "better than I expected," but I guess I wasn't really thinking very much either way when I ordered it.  But it's actually quite nice.  I plan on using it to correct some grounding deficiencies in an old, 2000 Chevy Blazer (S10) with some nice inline 4 gauge clamps and lugged endpoints.  Now, however, I'm going to order another cable for my Juke to make sure I can get a satisfactory ground for my amps inside the vehicle (it has a false floor and a lot of cavernous areas that weren't expected).

So much better then I thought it would be. Decent acting, fight scenes and, although a bit drawn out, an overall good flick

Amazing.  Exceeded expectations.  Actually better than advertised.

Fantastic,Better than I thought it would be. With a little practice you can see at a glance. Much safer than turning your head and looking back.

I was initially hesitant to invest the time but glad I did.  It is a better than average movie,  While the plot borders on implausible, the characters are human and believable, and viewers can relate to them.

Don't expect too much, and you'll be pleasantly surprised by this novel. It won't change your life. Some reviewers have picked up on minor fashion flaws (and there are some), but you should form your own opinion about the  novel's overall verisimilitude. As a former victim/employee of several vile  NYC publishing conglomerates (but not CondeNast, so neatly speared here), I  can attest to the accuracy of many of Heller's observations. For a first  novel, it's pretty good, and can be placed in the same bracket as Hornby or  Buckley, Jr. He's best at impaling the absurd pretensions of yuppies, but  his grasp of office politics is quite profound, too. I laughed out loud at  several recognizable management succession scenarios here, and his acerbic  observation (which I paraphrase) that, "25% of the people in  publishing are British, and the rest wish they were." It's safe to say  there are few likable characters, including the narrator. Which sounds  pretty much like megapubworld as I recall it.

Better than I expected. I'm considering ordering more.

Stunning,  better than I would have ever anticipated

This movie is better than the reviews would suggest. Almost more of a horror movie than sci-fi. Ugly and dirty, it can be frighteningly realistic. It seems to ask the question, in a land of ignorance, dysfunction, and emotional cripples, can the human spirit overcome a malignant entity? It actually has far more to say than Alien, etc. though on a tiny budget. Takes a while to get going and then you will find it riveting.

The results turned out much better than I thought they would.  It's not a toy.
+ Full blown Windows XP rather than Linux.  I can run just about any of my programs.  Sure the processer is slower than my dual core, but that's an expected payoff.
+ 160G hard drive - plenty of storage space for when I'm on the road.
+ Great battery life.  My first three full-to-empty charges lasted around the advertised 5.5 hours.  I would imagine that the smaller SDD have better battery life; however I needed the larger hard drive.  Plus, it looks like the 160G is the only version with the 6 cell battery.
+ Screen is nice and bright.  Even on lowest brightness it is very readable.
+ After about 30 minutes, I was used to the small keyboard.  Not an issue.
+ VGA output for on-site presentations.
+ Lightweight - Actually, it's a featherweight when compared to my standard laptop (15.4"). Two could fit in the same space.
+ Build quality appears to be high.
- No bluetooth - solved with a USB adaptor.  Not a significant issue.
- High gloss case results in fingerprints.  Not a big deal.

3 and half stars.  Better than expected.  If you like the Kinks or the solo material (Ray or Dave).  Add this one to your list...not to the top, but not the bottom either.
