Rating:  - * Good product! Great price from Amazon. ... This is a great addition for your wall-mounted HDTV and increase the picture quality with its power filtering technology (if you can tell the difference because I can't). However, it is good to have it as a surge protector at the very least to protect your investment. Amazon offers a great price of $34.99 where Best Buy has the same item for $60. Depending on the type of wall-mount you have, an obstacle you might encounter is that you'll find it sticking out too much and interfere with the power cable connector that your HDTV comes with. This may end up causing you to spend a little more money to purchase a new power cable with a flat-end connector. I ended up purchasing the "Acoustic Research FS803 Flat Series Power Cord" from Amazon to replace the original power cable my HDTV came with and it works great. Rating:  - * Perfect for wall mount flat screen ... This product was the ticket! The space behind the television was tight. Was half the price of CC and received free shipping. Rating: - * Quick, easy installation ... Yup, no installation instructions. However, this product installs the same way as many other outlet-mounted surge protectors. Remove the screw from the outlet cover, insert the Monster unit into the two outlets, and screw the Monster unit down. The screw creates a more secure mount and reliable connection. The product was easy to install and meets my need well for a surge protector for my DSL line, DSL modem, and wireless router. I think this is the least expensive Monster unit that has phone line protection. I plan to buy another for my phone line, phone and answering machine. Good pricing and quick delivery from Amazon. Froogle search shows me that this product is currently available on-line without packaging and, as a result, without warranty for about $20. I'm not that brave, not knowing if the $20 unit is a knock-off copy. I'm willing to spend the extra $15 to get warranty and fast delivery / no tax / free shipping. Thanks, Amazon. Rating: - * Just what I needed ... This little monster is just what I needed. Nice quality and easy to install. I have equipped my whole house with surge protection. This Mp-HTS-200 is protecting my phone and 13" flat screen in the kitchen. Rating: - * Great Product! ... Perfect for flat screens hanging on the wall or from the ceiling. Small, compact protection at an exceptionally reasonably price! |
The two-disc set also includes The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon: A 10th Anniversary Special. In this 40-minute adventure, Dr. Yung invites Misty and Ash to take part in a special tournament on his new battle system. Yung creates formidable Mirage Pokémon from raw data, culminating in a super-version of Mewtwo, the powerful psychic Pokémon from the first features. Once again, friendship and kindness triumph over greed and arrogance, although the special ends with the words, "To be continued..." (Unrated, suitable for ages 8 and older: cartoon violence) --Charles Solomon
It’s unlikely that the full impact of the live performances will hit home to viewers unfamiliar with Jay-Z and his Roc-A-Fella Records stable of artists. Another frustration is trying to identify the array of visitors who trade raps on Jay’s stage. Included in the star-studded lineup are Missy Elliott, Foxy Brown, Pharell, Ghostface Killah, Beanie Sigel, Memphis Bleek, and R. Kelly. One unmistakable figure--and we do mean figure--is Jay’s squeeze Beyonce, who raises the temperature and the roof with her skimpy outfit, flowing hair, soulful yowl, and sexed-up dance routine that leaves her boyfriend and the whole of Madison Square Garden slack-jawed with animal desire.
Twenty cameras captured the event, and some of the most powerful sequences are sweeping moves across the swirling, blissed-out masses as they lip sync along in perfect unison with Jay-Z’s complex, profane, quick-witted raps. Less effective are intermittent cutaway segments that show the artist in various studio settings working up beats and rhymes. These amateurish home video breaks may give some insight to Jay’s perfectionism and dedication to his craft, but they detract from the visceral power of the beautifully executed performance footage. --Ted Fry
