It is a perfect fit for the Kindle charging plug and fits snugly into the Kindle. The cable feels sturdy with a nice thick insulation. Mediabridge shipped the item quickly and I would buy from them again.
I am surprised this cable come with with nice boxed package instead of just a plastic bag.
I use cable for charging my Motorola Droid phone beside my bed since original cable is way too short. Work like a charm!
Good price for a nice quality cable.
I got this to transfer files from my computer to my Kindle Fire. It's a sturdy cable (which may be a slight disadvantage to some people, as it doesn't coil as easily as a thinner cable would, but it's fine for me), and fits well into the Kindle micro slot.
This cable is actually high quality for a low price. This is a pretty high quality cable. It is sturdy, connects very securely and tightly (you can pick up your device by holding onto the cord), and it does not prevent you from using your touchscreen as cheap cables (which short out devices) will do. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

These sunglasses are the authentic Ray-Ban Aviators... The only difference: They are offered at a fraction of the cost as compared to the regular price in stores... Buy them... You won't be sorry...
Glass-lens, good quality sunglasses are like that first day every day. They don't develop the smudges, the scratches, the difficulty with being cleaned, the gradual degradation of quality. The day that I lost them, they were as crisp and clear, they looked as good, they fit as well, and they worked as well as the first day.
If they cost ten times as much, they ought to last ten times as long to be worth it. And assuming you don't sit on them, lose them, or get into a bike accident with them on like I did, they should do that easily. But even if they don't quite last that long, they might still be worth it. After all, ten pairs of cheap sunglasses that are smudgy and unpleasant to wear for at least half of their lives is not as nice an experience as one pair that's wonderful every day.
I purchased this after researching as many machines as I could, reading many of the reviews/comments/ complaints, and decided this would be a best purchase of my first espresso machine. I like espresso, it's just gone to soon after you make it, even if you savor the flavor and stretch it out as long as you can. So I also make mugs of strong coffee so I can sit and enjoy. This machine makes both great. The flavor and strength of my first espresso was far better then any I ever had at a *bucks. I had to experiment with the grind and tamping because I too was getting watery pucks at first. Like another reviewer, I found it's all in the grind and the tamp pressure. I have a capresso burr grinder with 8 settings in the fine to extra fine range. I tried all of them. To fine and it would not make coffee, less fine and would have great coffee but a watery puck. less fine yet and the proper tamp pressure, and it was perfect. Of my fine settings it was about in the middle. BUT, it was also in the tamp...Until I got the Terry's tamper, I couldn't get it tamped firm enough to use the fineest grind that I wanted. Now I have the proper grind marked on my grinder, fill the double filter with two scoops, tap it to settle it, tamp it, refill to the rim, tamp etc. until full. Put it on the machine, brew for 15-25 seconds and its done. Rich, strong espresso, wonderful aromatic crema, dry solid puck.
Now if I want coffee, I just brew a double and a single, put it in a mug, add hot water to the top, and enjoy a creamy, flavorful, aromatic coffee with no bitterness or acidity, almost as thick as chocolate milk. To speed things up if I have guests, or if I want several cups, I ordered three more filters from partstore.com for 12 bucks each. I pre fill them and can make four double shots in a row.
Also, the frother makes works great. Just learn how to do it on line first. Just under the surface and raise it up as the volume increases. And I use whole milk, which is harder to froth but tastes great.

There were two main concerns about this product. Snapped the drive up during the after thanksgiving sale. I did a fresh install of Windows 7 (99 updates from start, restarting and installing additional updates at least 3 times for 20 more updates including Silverlight), Corel Draw X5 (with most likely unnecessary clipart) (upgraded to third revision), and Adobe Lightroom 3 (~200 mb upgrade to 3.5), Piriform CCleaner, Google Chrome with Amazon Kindle App to read offline (no books downloaded yet), and Steam's client = 30.9 GB and only 28.6 free. Not thrilled with the capacity, but it should keep me from cluttering it up.
The top of the description talks about the benefits of improved battery life, but at the bottom there is a link to a laptop version and an explicit statement that this is only for a desktop "This SSD is intended for desktop computers only. Samsung also offers the 830 Series SSD for Notebook Computers." Didn't catch that line until after ordering, but evidently that only pertains to the mounting kit. The drive is thinner than a 2.5" platter hard drive but still has four mounting screw holes in the standard position to slide a sheath mount over it. I've seen laptop HDs with a screw down on top, but I cannot recall if that was into a mount or into the actual drive. This may be why an additional kit is needed. Otherwise, I hope it is not just designed for desktops because it is working just fine at the moment in my laptop.
So other thoughts, the Windows Experience index in a Core 2 Duo Sony Vaio VGN-NW240F (another Amazon purchase) for the "primary hard disk" subsection is 7.7 maximum being 7.9. Of course, the system as a whole earned a 3.4 because of a non-upgradeable video card, but it ran Civ 5 well enough.
I expected an improvement in performance, but one of the biggest upside of the whole upgrade is the improved battery life. I was running on battery power forty five minutes ago when I installed Silverlight. Didn't unplug and immediately do that, I had been on for at least ten minutes before that. Using the power saver feature, where it dims the screen completely and disables Aero, I've got an estimated 1 hour and 54 minutes remaining and my battery is at 70%. Booted at ~11:40, updated Silverlight at 11:52 pm, currently 12:50, power saver mode, only used 30% of battery.
I'm not going to torture test the durability, but I have to admit that entered the picture. Laptops on a bed or in a bag sometimes get knocked around and I feel safer knowing a little bump won't cause a drive failure. If anything changes I'll make my thoughts known, but for now it's been a great purchase.
Celebrate the special bond between mother and child with the Sterling SIlver "A Mother Holds Her Childs Hangs For A Short While And Their Hearts Forever" Heart Pendant. This pretty looped heart pendant is inscribed with a heartfelt message about the rapid pace of a child's growth, and the endurance of a mother's love. A beautiful gift, with a sentiment that any mother can appreciate, it's finely crafted in polished sterling silver and presented on an 18-inch sterling silver box chain.
Everything was as expected with necklace that I ordered. It arrived at a decent time and the product itself was beautiful.
It's affordable and has a really sweet message to a mother. I gave this to my mom with some other stuff for a late mother'sday present and she loved it! came sooner than expected. Will definitely buy from this source in the future.
I gave this to my Mom for her birthday and she loved it. She's taken care of children her entire life so it was more than appropriate.
My mom loved this! I was a bit worried because of the other reviews, but it got to her in a reasonable amount of time and she said the chain wasn't cheap looking and it fits well.
