Ultimate Ears MetroFi 220vi Noise Isolating Earphones w/ Microphone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I really wanted to like these. I thought the reviews about the bad bass were from people who had never used these kinds of earphones and couldn't get them in their ears.
But they don't fit. The tips are too stiff to get a good seal, and they're slightly different from "standard" so none of the replacement tips would stay on.
Very well constructed but the cord is almost too stiff.
But really the worst part about them is the crappy bass response, even if I jam them really tight in my ear and turn up the bass through the eq.

Magellan RoadMate 3065 4.7-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator with Lifetime Traffic Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this product at a big box store, on sale at the same price. I mounted it on one of those beanbag dash mounts; worked fine. The directions are clear; super-accurate. It updates when I deviate from course almost immediately, except once when my local knowledge flummoxed it for about 15 seconds.
The screen would be easy to see (less the sunglare) if it weren't just too close for my driving glasses and just too far for me to peer over them. That's my personal problem. Maybe I need bifocals. The spoken directions are clear and well-timed, so a detailed look at the screen isn't really necessary.
The traffic wake-up is virtually useless; it has to be connected in the car to work, and I am not leaving the unit in the car overnight, and certainly not in the garage at work, having already lost a stereo. Plus my car needs the key in the Accessories position to power the cigarette lighter, and I suspect that would not be a good idea. I haven't encountered any traffic to test it on the road, yet (which I guess is a good thing).
I had it about a week when it died: in the car, on the floor (the advantage of the beanbag mount) while I was in a store for about an hour. It would not turn back on. The Magellan support was excellent: I called, got an RMA number, shipped it, and expect a new unit (not a refurb) back in a few days (7-10 after shipping). I'll be a little more careful about heat, though you would expect that a device designed to sit exposed to the sky...
Assuming the replacement keeps its cool, I would recommend this, or one of the similar models.
