Works good!

Palit GeForce GTX 570 (Fermi) 1280MB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card NE5X5700F09DA
Palit GeForce GTX 570 (Fermi) 1280MB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card NE5X5700F09DA

Pros: My old 8800GT died so I was due for a new one. Found this (The only GTX 570 they had) at the local computer hardware store for only 10,000yen more than they were wanting for the GTX460's. So far it's been running great. Comes with a tool called Vtune which easily lets you overclock the card. The rest of my system is too old to really get the benefit of the card though.

Cons: -I can't use it at its full potential! -Never heard of Palit before. But the card seems as well built as any of my previous cards from better well known manufacturers. -No buy one get one free offer?

Overall Review: Waiting on a Sandy Bridge 2500k before I can really get this thing going.

WoW

Ideazon FANG  Gamepad

Pros: I use the Merc keyboard at home for WoW playing and I love the controls that has. So I bought a Fang to be able to have a portable one to take with me on business trips. Before I had the Merc and Fang my left hand would be pretty cramped after a long WoW session but with these controllers the pain is gone.

Cons: The jump button is better situated on the Merc keyboard than on the Fang.

Overall Review: I can't play WoW without either the Fang or the Merc. Once you get used to the controls you won't be able to go back either.

Works fine for me

Pros: My Netgear (wgr614v5) wireless would just not work with Warcraft so I had to get something else. Easy install and no port forwarding setup was needed to get this to run WoW.

Cons: Big? Um it's black? Wasn't free?

Overall Review: Doesn't get as hot at the Netgear did. Also had a nice strong new plastic smell out of the box. I love the smell of new plastics.

Great camera!

Pros: This is a great camera! I moved up from my Canon A95 to this and it was worth the $. The Zoom to me is incredible for a point and shoot type camera and the picture quality is a lot better than my A95 I think. AA batteries mean finding replacements is easy wherever in the world you may be. The moveable LCD screen allows me to get some pretty good angles of whatever I am shooting (mainly cars).

Cons: I don't like the fact that it doesn't use the compact flash card.

Overall Review: Good choice if you don't want to step into the pricey DSLR world yet.
