So I finally made the leap into HDTV and a blu-ray player and knowing that I needed a HDMI cable, I looked to see the wide variety of costs. The difference in price is astounding – a few dollars to a few hundred dollars. I’m not going to pay for more for a cable than a Blu-ray player unless it does something like bring me beer and pizza while I watch a movie.

I was really surprised when I got the cable. Instead of something that I thought would be cheap-looking and flimsy, the cable was thick and pretty solid. I plugged it in, and it just worked.

Do yourself a favor – buy one of these HDMI cables, and take all that money (at least $60+!) and buy yourself some Blu-ray movies with the money you saved by being smart.

This product works great. I got it for my parents and they are walking so much more than ever before. It is great and pretty accurate too. Even works on exercise equipment.

Does what Cateye CC-RD300W Strada Wireless Bicycle Computer supposed to do. For me less is more – I do not like gadgets and gizmos. I like to keep things simple and this is certainly true when it comes to biking. I want to get out there and enjoy myself.

The Strada Wireless is great – just setup and install is as per instructions (if you find the multilanguage/small print of the included instruction sheet overwhelming just download a two page English version from the Cateye web site).

The Strada is a quality product and the single button interface (just push the face of the unit) is all you need.

The second trip meter is a nice. Since it can be reset independently of the main measurements you can easily measure sections of a ride.

Great little gadget. Oh well I did install Schwinn 17-Function Bike Computer yet, but I turned it one and flicked through it functions. It seems to be a sturday unit that will make you biking a lot more interesting – if you like looking at your numbers. Very cheap and very functional unit, and I say – wired makes it more precise.

Have a nice trip
