How is it when you pay more to get it in 1-2 days and get it in 4 day?? I would like my pay fee back! Not a good idea to pay more and get nothing. Butch

I feel a little weird writing a critical review about this book. It was strongly recommended to me by several people who said it was “a great story” so I was expecting something that would truly captivate me and pull me in. For me, it simply fell short.

I think that a tremendous amount of time and effort went into the research involved for this book and that should not go unnoticed. If you’re looking for a book that clearly depicts the Great Depression and/or circus life during that time period – by all means you should pick up the book. I do not know a tremendous amount about that time period to tell you if it was fully accurate, but I feel that it did give me a pretty good picture of what circus life would be like in that era. The photographs installed at the beginning of each chapter also did a great job connecting the story with the reality of traveling circuses of the time. The language probably could have corresponded a bit more, but in terms of the spirit and energy of the book versus the time period in which it takes place, I think it was pretty spot on.

However, I really had trouble connecting with the characters. They simply did not seem like well-rounded, real people to me. I understand that the characters should be eccentric considering they are individuals traveling with a circus, but not to the point where they should seem artificial. Their emotional reactions to various tumultuous situations seemed unrealistic – based on having experienced similar situations in my life. The psychological repercussions would have been huge for a lot of the major conflicts that occur in the book – especially during the time of the Great Depression – but I did not feel the degree of inner struggle within the characters was well represented throughout the story. The characters would get sad or angry, but they seemed to sedate their feelings pretty darn quick.

The depiction of the main character in his old age, however, seemed more realistic to me. I thought the scenes

It is a little bulky and heavy, but it needs to be to do the great job of holding your GPS exactly where you want it. It’s easy to attach your GPS and position it. It stays where you put it. I’m so glad I spend the extra money for this. It is so worth it. It was $28 on Garmin and $22 here, when purchased with the GPS. I would have liked it to be half the price, but would still buy it again, at whatever price.

Our daughter really enjoyed this computer playset when she was a few months old, less so now (she is about to turn 10 months) but even very early on she was able to detach the various bits herself (those attached with velcro) and so had to be monitored as everything would go into the mouth. Consequently, the smaller items were frequently being put out of reach which diminished her fun somewhat as there isn’t that much to engage with overall. Nice idea but limiting.

I have been waiting to up-grade to see how Vista went. I had my doubts. I decided to upgrade to Windows 7 and Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 to complement it. I have a new computer!

This is not the first time I recieve product from Amazon that was repackaged but I could not tell if it was used. I don’t mind if the item was opened/used but you advertise it as new. Besides the size of the 305 it does everything and more for aspiring triathlete. Like the fact that it handles multiple sports (bike, run, ski). GPS is on target so far. Insturctions seem simple but I refer to youtube clips to learn fuctions. Overall good value.

All of the good reviews must not be from people who have owned tough solar watches for more than a few years. The solar batteries in these watches tend to die after ~5-7 years and can no longer be charged, so the watch becomes worthless unless you have the expensive battery unit replaced, but that defeats the purpose of the solar battery. It would be cheaper in the long run to just buy the non-solar versions and replace the $5 batteries every few years. I feel like the solar gimmick is a scam by casio in the sense that the battery does not last long enough to warrant the price premium. Although the watches themselves hold up well and have good features, DO NOT buy SOLAR unless you expect to replace it in a few years.

If anyone has owned one of these for longer than 5-7 years without having the battery fail, please post your actual experience as a reply.
