Very useful device, 20 May 2013
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Programme (What's this?)
Kingston Mobile Lite What is it ? This is a small media reader and wireless streamer with a built in battery to enable phones to be charged from it. In the box. The main unit, a USB cable, fold out instructions and a SD to micro SD converter card. Instructions on how to download the management app from Apple and Google. In use. It is simple to use. There is an on off button and that's about it. Attach it to a PC and the battery charges up and it will read SD cards as well. The USB slot will take a USB memory stick and read files from it and wirelessly transmit them to either Apple or Android devices. I have only used it with my Nexus pad on Android and it works a treat. The advantage being you can store loads of files on a USB stick and read them wirelessly on the Android device without using up the limited memory in the Nexus pad. I steamed a film to it and it worked very well. To use it you need to download an app from Google Play for Android or Apple Store for iPads etc. While using it there was no drop out of interference which is great for such a small device. I am going to use it with a Kindle fire and will report back when I have had some more experience of it. I am using it at this moment in time with a Nexus 7 tablet. Please see other reviews here for experience with I Pad's and iPhones as I don't have them. Battery charger. The unit has a built in batter that can be used to charge up a p[hone or iPod battery. I tried this on my iPod and it charged the battery up so will be very useful if I am away from a power source while camping. Overall impression. A neat gadget that does lots of things. I did not think I would need such a device but now I have it I never go out without it. It's a useful SD card reader, charger and media streamer and saves using up the limited memory in iPhones, I pads, and Android devices. I am sure anyone who buys this will get a lot of use from it especially those on the move who like to take lots of media files with them. This is one of those gadgets that's actually very useful !!!

Good for understanding Organisations, 18 May 2013
I bought this via the Amazon Seller market for my daughter who is doing a business degree. I can report that she has gained a great deal of knowledge from this book and applied it well judging by the marks she has obtained from her assignments on the subject. In her words she finds the structure clear, easy to use and well indexed. A very useful business text book.

An excellent book, 18 May 2013
I have needed to do some very complex Excel reports. I know my way around Excel but needed to really get into it's functions. This book does exactly what I wanted. It showed me how to implement detailed statistical analysis using Excel and generate the reports I needed. The book does assume some knowledge of basic statistics and Excel but apart from that it is great at explaining thinks. Along with 'Visual Basic in easy step' by Mike Mcgrath I have now completed a full integrated accounts monitoring system with reporting. Excel is so powerful but it takes books like this to really unlock its potential. Overall 'Statistical Analysis with Excel' is a brilliant book in the Dummies series and I am very glad I bought it. I have learned so much and feel I can tackle any Excel based problem now. Highly recommended.

Childhood memories, 18 May 2013
I loved the book and film as a child. Now it's free to download to my Kindle I did a little regression and thoroughly enjoyed reading it again after all these years. A wonderful story, an easy read and a bit of nostalgia - what could be better ?

My wife has found this book helpful, 18 May 2013
This book was purchased for my wife who makes re-enactment cloths for my daughter. Many books just don't cover some of the tips and tricks outlined in this book. The book was recommended to her by a college dress designer course manager. Combined with 'The Tudor Tailor' and Victorian Gentlemen's Tailor' she has produced some fantastic garments by teaching herself. This book is part of a series and we will be adding the rest as funds permit. A very useful addition to the re-enactors library on how to make period costume.

A great read, 18 May 2013
This is the original text and a must read for horror fans. The language is very descriptive and paints pictures in the mind of the whole story. A true classic.

A great approach to this subject, 18 May 2013
This book is well written and structured. My daughter has used it continuously on her business degree. The facts and illustrations are fist class. The author has made what to most people is a boring subject interesting and informative.

Great help for those trying to get to grips with Access, 18 May 2013
The book This books is well written and illustrated throughout with screen shots. It covers everything you need to know to get a useful database up and running. It also describes in detail how to make use of the data tables and generate useful reports. I have read many books on Access and Office but this book and the others in the series are by far the best I have used. The book does not go into huge detail but gives the bushiness person or student enough to make the software useful. I have since read books on Visual Basic, Excel and PowerPoint and can now develop my own integrated Office projects linking Access, Excel and PowerPoint. This is an excellent series and I cannot recommend it enough.

An excellent book, 18 May 2013
Bought for my wife who studies Egypt. She likes the book and has found the information contained within it very useful indeed. The writing style is easy to understand and the information is accurate according to my wife who is usually very critical of books on Egypt.

It's OK for a quick shave in a hurry, 18 May 2013
I bought this shaver as I have to spend time away on business and needed something for a quick shave. The shaver was a good price during one of Amazons offers so I took the plunge as my old Philips rotary was old and the charge only lasted a couple of days. Positives Seem well made, Easy to clean the head, One charge lasts a week of shaves, Does a reasonable job at shaving my face- takes about 3 minutes, Comes with a travel pouch and cleaning brush. Negatives Misses long hairs, Very difficult to hold if using it for a wet shave, it's slippery ! It's quite heavy, Does not contour my face well - may just be my shape !! Pivoting head quite stiff, Sideburn trimmer not that effective. I have only had it for a month but it's a good compromise for someone like me on the move. It's better than my old Philips rotary and quite acceptable for the shave it gives. I can put up with its compromises but I expect spending more money would get better results but as it is it's Ok.
