Average Buyer Rating:  out of 5 stars

Buyer's feedback: 4 out of 5 stars - * Like it ...
Excellent product, use it every day as long as it's plugged in. Took it camping, quickly drained brand new batteries after 6-8 hours of use. Would recommend.



Buyer's feedback: 4 out of 5 stars - Pretty Good
As mentioned in other reviews the power cord (two part) is silly and awkward. Sirius reception is pretty good in the Boston area but sometimes it can be tough to get a signal indoors. The long cord on the antenna can remedy this although it is a pain to have it running across the room to a window. The sound is GREAT for a little boombox. It sounds as good as Sirius ever does.



Buyer's feedback: 4 out of 5 stars - * Dad loves it ...
This is an outdated model boombox for a sirius radio. I bought it a year ago for my dad. The battery life is not very good, and the sound quality is meh at best, but it does exactly what it needs to do, which is provide a way to listen to his old sirius radio from his car in his garage while he works, or occasionally at work in the lumber yard. Although the product in my opinion is meh, is does what he wants it to do without fail, so no complaints.



Buyer's feedback: 4 out of 5 stars - Siriusly recommended.
As of this writing I've only had this boombox one day but I've spent several hours listening to it. I'm shocked at the problems other people have had, although I do agree with them on some things. Firstly, the unit is a bit bass-heavy and has nothing with which to control this. That's why I docked it a star; a simple 'tone' knob that reduces the bass would have been welcome. I don't think it's TOO bass-heavy, but I am glad it's not any more bassy than that, let's say. Hip-hop fans might actually find it has too little bass... which helps me make my point about a 'tone' knob. To close the subject, I'd rather it have a bit too much bass than too little. I hate tinny-sounding speakers. My antenna reception has been a bit spotty but I'm very used to that from Sirius. It's aggravating when you leave the antenna in a place where it's working fine, then- 'Acquiring Signal'. Do the satellites move around that much? I am lucky enough to be able to put my antenna outside and I got great reception for over two hours that way. Your results may vary. Overall, the boombox beats the bejeezus out of the home docking kit, which I'll be getting rid of soon. I wish I'd just bought the boombox to begin with. Unless you have a killer home speaker system and you don't mind it being stationary, I'd go with the boombox. It's a lot more versatile and sounds great for its size. It also works with MP3 players, and guess what- you can adjust the bass on them.



Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - * Great Boombox! ...
I've had this for exactly one year without ANY problems. In fact, this has been nothing short of an exceptional boombox radio. When I paid only $100 for this I expected below-to-average sound quality. But, that is not the case with the Sportster Boombox. The sound is crisp with a surprising amount of bass. Everytime someone new comes into my home they are surpised to hear all that sound out of such a little boombox!

The only negative is that you cannot adjust the treble +/or bass. For me, the factory set the sound levels perfectly and is not an issue.

As an added bonus: if this unit is on and the car dock is plugged into its power source, you can receive sirius on any FM radio in the house!

On paper, the Mio DigiWalker P550 looks to be an attractive gadget for the mobile professional, combining the capabilities of a PDA and GPS into one device. However, its poor battery life and subpar navigation skills tell a different story.

Though it won't appeal to the masses quite yet, the Nokia N800 Internet Tablet is a nice, portable device for on-the-go Web browsing, and it has some worthy upgrades.

Though it has a few design and performance glitches, the Sony Ericsson W300i is a quality, basic MP3 cell phone.

Diesel vehicles have nearly a 50-percent market share in Europe, thanks to tax incentives and diesel-friendly legislation across the EU. Diesels are so passé there that you can buy a BMW 730d and no one will think it odd that your luxury car burns oil. Pull up in a diesel 7-Series in America and people would leer at you like you've alighted from an amphibious vehicle reeking of saltwater and dead trout.

But now, thanks to the oft-reported combo of newly-raised CAFE standards, not-so-newly-raised gas prices, and the 50-state diesel engine, GM, Ford, and Chrysler are about to dip more than a hesitant toe into the diesel game. Chrysler offers a diesel in the Grand Cherokee, but soon all three automakers will offer diesels in their best-selling lineups of light trucks -- the Dodge Ram 1500 is expected to offer a 50-state diesel after 2009. Light trucks are being used to lead the charge since those buyers stand to gain the most with the least amount of (perceived) sacrifice.

Diesels currently have 3.2-percent of the American market. Some estimates put them at 15-percent by 2015. That's a huge leap, and diesel still has plenty of hurdles. Diesels will come with a cost premium over gasoline-engined cars. That should be easy enough to conquer -- incentives and some quick cost and longevity calculations should convince people of the benefit. The real hurdle is the nagging issue of perception. The plan will probably be to attack that with a price that makes the proposition unbeatable. Said Chrysler's director of environmental affairs, "If it's priced right, we can sell diesel here. Diesel can give you an immediate poke in fuel economy -- 20 to 40 percent. Not many technologies can deliver that today."

This 44-minute musical Christmas movie finds Pooh, Tigger, Darby, and the rest of everyone's favorite characters from the Hundred Acre Wood enjoying a busy Christmas Eve filled with Christmas preparations and dreams about what they hope to receive from Santa. When Roo and Lumpy discover a fancy red bag in the snow and then stumble upon a young reindeer named Holly caught in a thicket, they find out that the bag they've found is Santa's magical toy sack and that without it, Santa may have to cancel Christmas. When Holly is unable to remember which direction leads home, Roo and Lumpy sound the super sleuth siren and the whole gang sets off for the North Pole to return Santa's bag. Using their knowledge of the North Star to guide them, the hopeful group makes their way toward the North Pole, but finds the road difficult and full of danger. Can the group make it to Santa in time to save Christmas by working together? Will their individual Christmas wishes ever come true? Bonus features include two episodes about friendship and teamwork ("Symphony for Rabbit" and "Tigger Goes Snowflakey") and the "Hundred Acre Wood Downhill Game" in which players pretend to ski down a hill and then interactively match presents with their intended recipients. (Ages 2 and older) --Tami Horiuchi

Pooh Bear and his pals in the Hundred Acre Wood celebrate Christmas and New Year's Eve in a pair of adventures folded into this 65-minute made-for-video feature. In the first, the silly old bear plays Saint Nick to his buddies ("I always thought he'd be taller") after failing to get an errant wish list off to Santa, while identity crisis strikes the gang in the second half. Piglet inherits Tigger's hop and jumps like a pogo stick, and Eeyore (dressed in Pooh's shirt) becomes a happy-go-lucky honey lover. Welcome to The Twilight Zone according to Winnie the Pooh. There's not much A.A. Milne in this TV-style holiday special, but it's a bouncy little production that should entertain the wee ones with its warm fuzzies, good company, slapstick energy, and life lessons. --Sean Axmaker
