Testimonials
Average Buyer Rating: out of 5 stars

Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - * Nice addition to PC gaming ...
It's hard getting used to playing with the Nostromo after being a keyboard WoW player. However, after I got the buttons set up how I wanted (through the very easy-to-use GUI) and got used to using it, I love this thing! I'm so glad I bought one!


Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - The perfect gamepad?
Has all the buttons one needs placed right under the fingertips, and a D-pad right under the thumb. The D-pad WORKS, as opposed to other brands game pads which wont let you program WASD movement into that. The D-Pad is also quite comfortable for long duration use, and I have spent several long game sessions (5-6 hours a pop, playing using my N52TE.

The only drawback is the software, which is hard to use and improperly documented. If you experiment a bit though you can figure it out. Such as, all menus ad drop-down righht clicks, off the specific button you want to program. Unlike the basic N52 which you hit the button on the Actual N52 and program that that way.


Buyer's feedback: 1 out of 5 stars - * Positively Awful ...
I really, really wanted this to be a good pad. As a Mac user, my options are limited, and the N52te appeared to be the best (and only) option.

The N52te instantly became a very nice looking, unusable brick the second the driver software was installed. Unresponsive and unfunctional. Belkin made no responses to requests for support.

Returned the unit, brought home another. Removed all previously installed drivers and started over. The unit bricked again.

Perusing the internet revealed a long history of poor Mac support, driver problems, and endless complaints.

Wait for Belkin to take their support issues seriously, or wait for a competitor to build a better product. Don't get me wrong: the N52te looks and feels great... it just doesn't work.


Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - AWESOME!
AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME! Seriously love this game pad. There was a slight learning curve to get used to it after I'd been using the keyboard for so many years, but witin just a few days, I'm gaming faster and more efficient than ever. Wish I would have made the change years ago!


Buyer's feedback: 3 out of 5 stars - * Pwnsauce? ...
I look at everything in terms of what it takes to be the best and get to the point quickly.

WHY USE AN N52TE? The primary purpose is so that you can free up your WASD fingers that control movement by using the thumb controlled DPAD instead. This results in having the ability to press more buttons/abilities while moving around. Instead of your pinky finger and thumb being the only ones free while moving, all 4 of your fingers are free and have 14 buttons nearby. There's more to be said about this...

PERKS? Some quick perks about the N52TE are the keystroke pressure feels very good, the comfort is above average, and changing button maps with their software is cake.

A DPAD? Anyway, the most important part of this gamepad is losing the WASD keys for the DPAD, which is the same purpose of all gamepads with DPADs. So the DPAD of any gamepad is going to be the most important aspect. The primary problem with DPADs is this: Try strafing left and right as fast as possible using the WASD keys, it's pretty much instantaneous and 100% controlled, and then doing the same with any DPAD requires your thumb to rock back and forth... time delay with a little bit of unknown.. In FPS games your left and right strafing execution can be extremely important as well as all movement controls. You have to know exactly when you are changing strafe directions to reverse your mouse movement and maintain head shots while strafing. That is a place unacceptable to get sloppy for the sake of pressing more keys while moving.

I've been working on getting good with the N52TE and am having a hard time getting past the slight loss of control. I dont consider this one of the best DPADs and I've tried the joystick extension on and off(a little more accurate w/ the stick popped off). If the DPAD was more impressive and tuneable in different ways this product would be great instead of good.

WHO NEEDS ABSOLUTE ACCURACY? In games such as WoW (T6 warlock here..when it was more of a challenge) where accuracy isn't as important as having a lot of abilities at your fingertips while moving around as in pvp, this can be a godsend for you. I do find there to be a lack of buttons, compared to a WolfKing Warrior that can only be described as button heaven. Most classes and games can get by with 14 quickly accessed primary abilities/functions. The shift/alt/mode changes are all options for secondary type buttons if you wish. I find memorizing buttons overtop buttons tends to be more difficult than memorizing dedicated buttons.

The mouse roller piece rolls well while clicking into place solidly, and is an interesting and functional piece to map it's purpose. The buttons next to the DPAD I would recommend using as out of combat type buttons otherwise it defeats the purpose of the DPAD of moving while using abilities. You definitely cant jump while moving if you think that big bar is a jump button.

If you want to go with WASD instead of a DPAD I recommend the Wolfking Warrior Keypad, otherwise this N52TE is very functional and versatile DPAD gamepad type.

Complete Guide to Single Malt Scotch

by Michael Jackson
$19.77

Average customer rating: 4.5 ISBN: 0762413131
He's written shamelessly for more than a decade and a half about his passion for 12- and 15-year-olds. He's described his dalliances with loves named Heather and Peat and some three dozen named Glen. His name is Michael Jackson. Relax. We're talking here about the Britain-based, award-winning drinks and spirits writer and author of, among other classic reference works, Michael Jackson's Beer Companion.

In Michael Jackson's Complete Guide to Single Malt Scotch, devotees of the dram can peruse the latest revised edition of the 1989 work. In 336 pages brimming with maps, photos, and informed overview of factors such as geography and flavor components--even proximity to the sea--Jackson sketches the evolution of Scotch whisky, from the prebottling days, when shopkeepers like Johnnie Walker and the Chivas Brothers would create their own blends for sale, to the late-1960s and 1970s' surge of individual distilleries marketing their own bottlings. Lamentably labeling the former as a time when "orchestrations drowned out the soloists," Jackson provides some sweet sheet music of his own: 294 pages are devoted to an A-to-Z review (including full-color labels and tasting notes) of more than 800 singles from "every Scottish malt distillery that has ever witnessed its product in a bottle." It's the perfect book to take to your local liquor store next time you're trying to navigate the high shelf of Scotland's highlands, lowlands, and islands. You may laugh at Jackson's description of Auchentoshan Select's "oily" nose with "hints of citrus zest" or Aberlour 10-year-old's "mint-toffee" bouquet. But you'll be laughing out of the other side of your haggis when you actually smell them. All the notes are well researched and designed to appeal to Cardhu-carrying connoisseurs, as well as those who'd just like to know more about Bowmore. In his introduction, the author describes a whisky's finish as "a crescendo, followed by a series of echoes. When I leave the bottle, I like to be whistling the tune." Scotch drinkers will find plenty to wet that whistle in Michael Jackson's Complete Guide to Single Malt Scotch. --Tony Mason

Radica Play TV Football



"Madden" has come to be known as the synonym of choice for videogame fans when they want to talk about football. But while the console versions of the game, named after legendary coach and even more legendary television announcer John Madden, may offer state of the art graphics and features, they require very little effort from any part of your body other than your fingers. This interactive game makes you work a little harder on the physical side in order to win the game. It hooks up directly to your television and comes with a weight sensitive mat which you use to select plays and navigate players as well as an electronic wireless football used to simulate throws downfield. Multiple settings let you play in training camp mode to hone skills, go up against a friend, or battle the computer. It may lack the detail and complexity of the console Madden games but it gives you more exercise so you’ll look more like a football player and less like Madden himself. --Charlie Williams
Delphi MyFi XM2GO Portable XM Satellite Radio Receiver with Home / Car Kits



The biggest boost yet for satellite radio has to be Delphi's radiant MyFi XM2GO portable satellite radio receiver and digital music player. The MyFi can record and play back up to 5 hours of XM's digital programming whenever and wherever you choose. It requires a subscription to XM satellite radio ($12.95/month), but just


Compact and easy, to use the MyFi offers 150 XM satellite channels.
about everything else you could want for home, outdoor, or car listening comes in the box. XM's 150 channels include 67 commercial-free music channels as well as premier news, sports, talk, traffic, and weather listings.

The MyFi comes with a densely packed carton of accessories, including everything from headphones and antennas to a remote control, belt clips, and separate docking apparatus for integrating the receiver with your home and car stereos.



Smaller than a PDA, the receiver exudes greatness even before you hear it: it's just heavy enough to seem solidly built yet light enough to merit the term "portable." The receiver even comes with world-class manuals, from its tips sheet to the longer quick-start guide to the 42-page user's manual (separate English and Spanish editions of each are provided).

An illuminated six-line LCD is your gateway to browsing XM's programming. You can browse by station, by category, or (our favorite) by currently playing artist. Thirty channel presets simplify access to your favorites, and a handy memo button stores artist and song data for up to 20 performances you'd like to look into later (or find again on XM).

Any satellite radio system requires a fairly heavy-duty antenna. Accordingly, the MyFi comes with four: one for the home (place it in a south-facing window), one for the car (mount it on the roof or trunk), a clip-on antenna for when you're hoofing it, and a built-in antenna. Our home reception was perfect--we never experienced a single drop out. Car reception was spottier, though still excellent. You just have to get used to the fact that where analog radio gets noisier in areas with poor reception, satellite radio drops out altogether; it's either all there, crystal clear, or all absent. And that's where My XM, MyFi's recording feature, comes in handy.



The MyFi mounts easily in most vehicles.

My XM lets you record XM programming to MyFi's onboard memory--perfect for time shifting your listening (as with a news program or a scheduled performance on XM Live) or for tuning in when you'll be someplace lacking XM reception (in a canyon, on a subway, in a windowless cubicle, etc.). You can schedule a recording or start and stop recording at any time you wish, and new recordings pick up where you last stopped. But you can't erase anything unless you clear the memory--which means you can't whittle away songs you don't like to retain your favorites. It's also important to remember that when you've filled the unit's memory (128 MB, or 5+ hours of full bitrate XM radio), it'll record over earlier material, starting from the top. During playback, however, My XM lets you skip easily from track to track and even pick from a list of all tracks.

You can configure the MyFi's LCD to scroll stock and sports-score tickers, a great way to keep an eye on important stats. The receiver also features a built-in sleep timer (15 minutes to 1 hour) and an alarm clock (wake to a beep or to XM programming).

What's in the Box

For car use, you have a choice of mounting options for the vehicle cradle: flush mount, vent mount, or swivel mount. The cradle houses a power jack for a DC vehicle power adapter (included), an antenna input, and an audio output for use with the provided cassette-shell audio adapter. You can use the cassette adapter or the MyFi's built-in wireless FM transmitter, which turns any FM radio into an XM radio. (Audio quality is better using the supplied cassette audio adapter, however. You may also purchase a wired FM adapter, though XM asserts that the cassette adapter sounds better than that, too.)



The Delphi XM MyFi comes complete with all of the accessories needed to enjoy XM anywhere.

Positioning the car antenna can be inelegant, despite its heavy-duty magnet. You can have it professionally installed or live with an exposed antenna cord, though XM recommends using "existing holes, body grommets, and other wiring channels" rather than closing a door over the cord on a daily basis. The receiver's battery pack proved good for about five hours between charges. The included earbud headphones are neither comfortable nor particularly well made; a nicer set would represent XM's strong sound quality. --Michael Mikesell

MyFi receiver with a clip-on antenna, an integrated rechargeable battery, a complete home accessory kit (with antenna and audio cable), a complete vehicle accessory kit (with antenna), stereo earbud headphones, a remote control, a remote battery, a belt clip/stand, a protective carrying case, and quick-start guides and user's manuals in English and Spanish.

Baseball's Greatest Hits
$10.99



It would be impossible to capture all the things that make the game great--the drama, the humor, the roar of the crowd--on one album, but the folks behind this sprawling collection come pretty darn close to hitting for the cycle. Old-time faves like Les Brown's "Joltin' Joe DiMaggio" segue into modern tributes such as Bill Slayback's "Move Over Babe, Here Comes Henry," while such tangential yet groovy chestnuts like the Intruders' soul standard "Love Is Like a Baseball Game" and Rockin' Richie Ray's utterly unhinged "Baseball Card Lover" are guaranteed to make even nonfans cock an ear. Interspersed among the songs are spoken interludes, ranging from classic comedy bits like Abbott & Costello's "Who's on First" to moving memories such as Lou Gehrig's famed farewell speech. Baseball's Greatest Hits is a one-of-a-kind collection. --David Sprague
