Cables To Go - 26911 - 2M DVI-D M/M Dual Link Digital Video Cable (Black)

Furious! That's the only word I can use to describe my emotion. I just purchased a new LCD monitor for my computer. In anticipation of the purchase I ordered a DVI-to-DVI cable since the monitor manufacturer (Samsung) did not supply a DVI cable. When I connected the new monitor to my computer with the new DVI cable it did not work. I spent many hours on the telephone trouble-shooting the new LCD monitor with Samsung and on my own, assuming either my setup was wrong or the monitor was defective. As a last resort I purchased a another DVI-to-DVI cable locally (that was more expensive). As soon as I connected the monitor with the new cable it worked! As a double check, this morning I "wrung out", i.e. checked, the cable continuity with an ohmmeter. At least two of the cable connections lacked contunity. In all my years of working with electronics and buying cables I have never encountered a cable that was defective straight from the box. A simple continuity check before shipping would take all of ten seconds with the proper equipment. I will never consider buying any items from "Cables To Go" again.Get more detail about Cables To Go - 26911 - 2M DVI-D M/M Dual Link Digital Video Cable (Black).

PlayStation 3 Wireless keypad Buy Now

I was pretty psyched to see this come out for the PS3. I do a lot of typing / talking on the PS3 and thought this would be a great addition.

After it arrived I soon learned that:

1. It significantly adds weight to the controller and makes it "top heavy"

2. It is quite awkward to type with this and still feel like you have control of the PS3 controller.

3. The keys are very small and typo's are a huge reality for anyone with normal sized fingers.


I'd say that if you are strictly interested in typing to someone on the PS3, buy a bluetooth keyboard!!! Once this thing is attached to the controller, it pretty much makes it useless for anything else.
