DO NOT buy this "camera".......2007-08-10
This is the worst camera i've ever seen for many reasons:
1. This camera only works outdoors or in a cmpletely iluminated room.
2. The flash is very useless at night.
3. It consumes batterries extrmely fast (it uses AAA)
4. The still pictures quality is very bad.
5. The videos have awful sound and a extremely poor quality. They appear with those big pixel squares.
I don't recommend this camera for anyone. Not eve a 5 years-old kid will enjoy it.
great item for kids and for adults.......2007-08-09
I bought this camera for my son because I thought it had everything a child would want and I was right. My son spents tons of time with his little camera, I enjoy this camera too when I get bored I get my son's camera and listen to the music on the mp3. This camera is very nice and it is really cheap. the only bad thing is that it does not has a rechargable batterie on it but that does not matter if you buy some AAA rechargable batteries and a charger. I totally recomend this item to everyone who is interested on it.
5 in 1 digital camera.......2007-01-10
My son loves the camera, the only thing I didn't realize that it takes AAA batteries. I know that there are some cameras similar to my sons that take AA. Other than that were good. Thank you.
WARNING: Do Not Buy! Terrible Video!.......2006-12-26
This camera/Mp3/camcorder/webcam/voice recorder is way to good to be true! I brought one because it was cute and looked perfect for mini movies. But I was sadly mistaken... This camera just takes cheap pictures and videos. The only thing that actully worked properly was the voice recorder that I had no need for. After about 3 days of trying to make it work a little better I gave up and sold it on eBay for the same price as I brought it for. It's a great idea... but it just isn't a good camera but if you want a voice recorder this is pretty nice. The Mp3 player isn't all that wonderful either. It doesn't work with iTunes. Or easy work with Windows. Hope this helps... I wish I would have read this before I brought this camera.
Hey, I Guess You Get What You Pay For . . ........2006-12-17
I no longer own my previous and much finer camcorder, so I finally found myself in the market for purchasing some kind of camcorder until I could get back on my feet to get another good one. I thought this one may do, good price, looks sharp, purchased on impulse . . .big NO-NO.
I will say the camera takes decent pictures (as the previous reviews state, almost exclusively outside in broad daylight or indoors with
very good lighting). Other than that, don't bother. The MP3 is a cute
function (and quite possibly the most practical). The video, UHH, let's
not even go there. The voice recorder, also not bad - records in WAV format and can be transferred to PC.
Jack of all trades, master of none . . .I guess that would be the best
way to finally describe this item. I will say that I'll be saving up now
for much better camcorder and no more "I just gotta have this right now"
Save your $, find a quality product - even if you have to pay a little more for it. Trust me, it will be overall better in the long run . . .

Customer Reviews:
Amusing toy, but not great for any serious video........2006-11-30
This camera has a number of features, and I'll be reviewing the capabilities of each.
1.) Video Mode
Video quality is mediocre at best. You need to use daylight in order to get anything resembling decent video. You can record 640x480 at 10 fps (NOT 15 fps), or 320x240 for a much smoother 30 fps. Unless you like headaches, stick with the smaller res. Because the camera is so light, it's easy to end up with "Earthquake Videos"--steady your hand, or use any standard tripod (attached to the battery door, which can open if you screw the tripod on too tight).
I had great frustrations getting this camera to have proper white balance indoors under incandescent lighting. Like many digital cameras I've toyed with, results are too yellow/red, and the White Balance feature of the camera does little to fix this. Use daylight.
Sound on videos is also mediocre. It's not terrible, but there's some detectible artifacts. The camera also has some fun "filters" (Sepia, B&W, Negative, etc) if you want to play with those.
Videos use the ASF format container, IMA ADPCM audio codec, and ISO MPEG-4 Video V1 video codec. Included software allows you to compile video snips, add effects, and other basic bits if you don't already have software that can handle ASF files.
You can plug the camera into a TV, but you will likely need to buy extra cables so that you can plug in both audio and video (only video cable is supplied). There is definate pixelization when put on the big screen, but this is still a handy feature. Support for NTSC and PAL, 60 and 50 Hz.
In summary, it's fine for making videos during the day to post on YouTube or to send to friends. Limited use in other areas. Weakest with poor lighting.
2.) Camera Mode
Up to 3 MP. I did not extensively test this feature, but found it difficult to get the flash to cooperate. Photo quality was okay, but limited. I prefer my FinePix camera over this for flexibility and quality. No optical zoom. Uses JPEG format.
3.) MP3 Player
MP3 files ONLY. This is one area where this device falls flat. Sound quality was distinctly "grainy" when attempting to handle high frequencies (almost like a tincan effect). You will probably not be using this device as a portable MP3 player. Navigation was fine, but I found I kept bumping the stop button when I had it in my pocket. Very annoying.
4.) Sound Recorder
Essentially like recording video, only just the audio. Records using the .WAV container, IMA ADPCM codec, 8000 Hz, 4 bit, Mono quality. There are no options to change the quality of your recorded files.
5.) Webcam Mode
By plugging the camera into your PC via USB, you can use it as either a portable drive (to transfer files to your PC) or a webcam. Webcam quality has the same weaknesses as standard Video. Without proper lighting, video will be mediocre at best.
(SUMMARY)
This device is a fine toy to play around with, and is a fair alternative to high-priced digital camcorders, but is little more than a portable webcam. A fun gift for someone in the 12 to 18 range. Buy rechargable AAA batteries (device uses 4) so you aren't constantly buying new juice--batteries only, nowhere to plug an AC adapter.
If you're more serious about your video projects, get a more serious camera. This is a toy, only a toy.
Excellent Product for the Price.......2006-06-26
Excellent Product for the Price
Strengths: Small, Easy to use, Does what it says it does. After you add the drivers, my laptop autosenses the internal SD and camera as two disk drives. I control each !!!!
Weaknesses: Owners manual is written with text that requires a magnifying glass to read.
Summary: I added a 1gb SD card to mine and now have the ability to take movies and pictures anywhere at anytime I choose and keep several movies in the camera until I get it connected to my laptop. Comes with a nice looking carrying case, lense cover, etc. I also purchased a set of rechargable AAA batteries with a rapid charger that will charge from home or the car.
Like I typed in the title, this is an excellent device for the money!!!
Piece of junk.......2006-05-19
I got this for free, thank goodness. You do need the book with you, because the controls are undecipherable. The image quality is just awful, and trying to use the flash short circuits the camera and it shuts down. Sound? Yeah, if you want to have something that sounds like you're 3 miles from the microphone. Do not waste your money on this. You can get better stuff for $50 more.
Absolute nightmare.......2006-01-03
First, all of the printing on the camera is so small you need a magnifying glass to read it.
Second, you have to memorize too many differnet menus and selections buttons so you have to carry the book around with you and refer to it.
Everytime you try to do something the batteries are running down so you have to buy batteries and a charger to keep up with it.
The downloading and deciphering are very time consuming and I still have not figured out how to retrieve the video I took at Christmas after 4 hours of trying. The icons are in Japanese.
If you want a digital camera, take your money and put it in a Certificate of Deposit. Wait about 20 years for it build up enough money to buy a camera that you can actually understand. By then you will be too old to care and you will have saved yourself some money. I, personally, am going back to disposable cameras for photos. I have never taken a bad photo with them.
As for the video camera part, I give up. What ever happened to point and shoot with a playback that actually plays back and doesn't tell you there is no video?
I haven't tried MP3 and have no use for that function. But the way it consumes batteries it isn't worth it. Wish I had known all this before I wasted my money.

Each front and rear speaker is magnetically shielded and contains a 3.63-inch woofer and a 0.63-inch dome tweeter. The satellites are each twistable, meaning that the listener can adjust the position of the tweeter as preferred. A center-channel speaker with dual 3.63-inch woofers completes the system.

Very Pleased - Good Clean Product.......2001-11-21
In the four months I've owned my KLH HTA-809 Home Theater system, it has proven to be an excellent improvement to my home electronics collection. The system arrived at my door well protected in its own special packaging, which wouldn't have been better designed even if the equipment had cost ten times more.
The individual components are also extremely clean...no ill-fitting pieces, bad edges, grilles that don't fit properly, etc. Again, all was found to be as good as one would expect of far costlier systems.
The instructions are a bit sparse and confusing, but the need to refer to them is quite minimal as hookup is straightforward. The factory packaging includes precut 24-gauge wire, and hanging brackets for the four twisty satellites.
I found prior reviewers of KLH subwoofers to be correct in their observation that the "Auto" power setting is not sensitve enough to be useful, unless you routinely listen to media at moderate sound levels and which has pronounced bass content. I just leave my subwoofer on all the time, though it could probably be plugged into the "Switched" outlet found on the backplane of many receivers.
Some other reviewers have also cited problems with complete failure of the subwoofer. These complaints have me looking over my shoulder a bit, though I can report that my own unit is functioning fine.
My KLH system is driven by a Sony STR-635 receiver. I have a Sony 32" Trinitron and a Toshiba 6-head Hi-Fi stereo VCR. The system is used in a 12x12 foot family room with standard 8 foot ceiling, though it will occasionally also be used in a 12x20 room with a 20 foot vaulted ceiling when I want to do "Theater" for a larger home audience. The KLH system is competent in this larger environment.
I typically listen to "dramatic" instrumental music (e.g. Jerry Read Smiths's hammered dulcimer) at moderate levels, and generally older videos such as Alfred Hitchcock. I have however tried the system with more recent material (The Bear, Paulie, letterbox Ben Hur, Sound of Music with THX) and the KLH system delivers a very impressive experience. I think readers who prefer modern action videos with advanced soundtracks, would also find the KLH package a worthwhile investment.
Last night I went to a neighbor's home, taking my copy of "Mrs. Miniver" (a British WWII movie) with me. I found the neighbor had a small Sony home theater package custom-installed in his family room. We started the video. On the neighbor's Sony system, my video didn't sound as good as I thought I remembered it to be.
After ten minutes, I talked the neighbor into coming to watch the remainder of that video on my system. My KLH speakers outperformed his Sony stuff without even breathing hard! The sound during the bombing scenes couldn't have been better if we'd been in a commercial theater.
I not only can recommend the HTA-809 to others as a quality investment, but I'm planning to take my own advice and buy a second KLH HTA-809 package for my own home!
I give four stars only because of the insensitive Auto power setting on the subwoofer.
Good for a budget.......2001-07-08
If you are wanting a surround system on a budget, I would recommend this system...it is packaged with a 100 watt sub. I have heard better with more expensive systems (the reason for 4 stars, not 5) but for the price, I have yet to hear a speaker system that has the same depth of sound and quality. If these speakers are in the price range you are looking, I believe you will be pleasantly surprised.
This is the same as HTA-1000.......2001-03-24
I bought the HTA-809 system ...recently and found that it gives decent performance for the price. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that a 100W subwoofer is included in the system....
decent.......2000-11-22
overall this is a pretty good system. If your looking for bass though don't look at this.
