Terrible – Everything was dandy until the last two months of my 24 month contract was nearly up, then vodafone hit me with a $909.18 bill - credit where credit is due, every bill I had up…

until this point for the last 22 months was never far over my fixed cap of $49.00 per month.

However in my latest bill, I went over my quota of fixed credit per month and as such I used 228mbs of data excess.

The 228mbs of data alone has cost me exactly $826.53,

GST on top of that comes to $82.65 making my bill for one month of use exactly $909.18 . Vodafone insist that this amount that I owe them is right.

Since recieving this bill from vodafone I have switched to an optus $49.00 byo cap plan that includes 1.5gbs of data and $500.00 credit per month upgraded to $650.00 credit per month for atleast 6 months and free sms too.

It does not take much working out which carrier to go for.

It is certainly not vodafone.

I travel around Australia every week and I can say from experience that vodafone has very poor coverage in the country areas, average in the city and poor in the suburbs. to be fair though, I have found that vodafone`s data access is a bit quicker than optus if you like to web surf.

All up I give vodafone 0 stars.

At the end of the day - Its your choice. Web surfing speed reasonable but not great when you have reception. Extremely poor coverage unless you only use it in the city - how much is it excess per megabyte? - vodafone have not got an answer to that one but they will give you a hefty bill for it.

Excellent – I have always had mid to high range priced printers, until I bought the Canon MX340. I am not exagerating, this printer for its price really packs a punch. It prints documents…

and pictures (I reckon anyway) with the same quality as what you would get if you took your pictures to some department store.

No smudges or irritating lines going across the paper, just quality.

That was the first thing that really impressed me about this printer.

Also you can fax several pages at once very easily with this printer too.

Using my wireless network, Wifi works perfectly too, so no messy cables to worry about either.

Overall: I give the "Canon MX340" 5 stars. High end printer at a low end price. High end printer at a low to mid range price, Printing quality is superb even on plain paper, not too bad on ink consumption either. Takes a bit of time to figure out how to set it up, like sending a fax for example. but once you have figured it out, she steams along great.

Terrible – A complete waste of money! In my case $675.00 AUD. I bought this phone in January 2010 and from day one it constantly crashed, sometimes as much as 12 times a day, so you would…

have to take the battery out to reset it every time it did this. After checking the reviews online, I realised everyone else had the same problems with it. Even updating the system software is a nightmare using "OVI".

The only good thing I have to say about the Nokia N97, is that it looks not bad. but thats it. I still have my nokia N97 packed away at home, but I cannot bring myself to sell it, as I would feel that I would be ripping off the person that buys it. Overall: I give the "Nokia N97" 0 out of 5.

Unless you have money to burn, look elsewhere. Looks nice enough. Just about everything really: Its slow, freezes and crashes all the time, Touchscreen has very poor responsiveness, Updating system software to latest version is a nightmare unless you are a computer progammer that understands a thing or two about codes and product codes and having to manually change them yourself etc.... Just check the reviews....

Excellent – Before I bought this phone, I checked all the reviews about it. There is a pretty hefty price tag on this phone I will admit, but I have to say, I have no regrets, this phone…

just will not let you down. and if you are prepared to pay a bit extra for a 32gb external sd card, Then this phone will become a complete multimedia operating system

for you. The android 2.2 operating system works perfectly in the samsung galaxy, Android and the galaxy work great together, very smooth.

The touch screen is everything they say about it in the reviews, very responsive.

Internet, music, videos and everything else that it can do all work great.

Don`t take my word for it though, just check the reviews.

Overall, I give the "Samsung Galaxy S" 5 Stars. Superb smart phone. Looks great, Works great, Feels great and operates great. generally speaking.....Its great. Since I bought this phone back in November 2010, I have not found any cons.

Excellent – I have had this set of speakers now for several years and I cannot speak highly enough about them. They have never given me any problems whatsoever and the acoustics that they…

produce is superb.

I record music using keyboards and also playgames on my computer etc...

So I do expect the very best in playback sound quality.

These speakers are perfect for Musicians and for gamers alike.

I cannot rate these speakers highly enough. 5 out of 5. Excellent acoustics, Excellent Quality, Good looking and reliable speaker system. None whatsoever.
