Hi Denise, Depending on how much in a hurry you are to get one I would probably say that from what I heard the new Apple Airpods will be if not the best at least among the best. I think regarding ease of use and connectivity the Airpods will be the best since Apple has designed them to pair

Correct, only the model that has "Connect" in the name can connect to WiFi and has an app. Both Neato and Roomba have models which typically cost at least $300 less for a non-connected version. I think companies currently do charge quite a premium for the simple addition of a WiFi modem and the

They aren’t cheap, the new connected smoker retails here in Canada for $900 and you can find it on sale maybe for $100 less. I think Canadian Tire, a big box store, had an exclusive on it until December 2 and I haven’t checked at all how much it is in the States. Regards, Sieghard From:

Hi All, Could someone please explain the best way to copy and paste within the fB app? You know how sometimes you read a friend's status and part of the post asks that you copy and paste to your own status? What is the easiest way to do that? Thanks for any help. -- Kimberly -- The

Hello list, Aas for my audio description problem, I know the particular show I am wanting to watch does have audio description. At least, it did a few months back, before I got my new Apple tv. So I wouldn't think they would remove that from the show. See, if I am remembering correctly,

Hi, Yes, I have had both Roombas and now a Neato Connected. The Roombas were pre the most recent incarnation, thus, not running with an app. So, I can't speak to that side of things. I always loved my Roombas, but the Neato is, really, a new generation and incredibly effective and

The sE isn't that small, no smaller than our old favourites like 5S. They were Ok then, so sE should still be Ok now. Tucking into waistband sounds weigh less than secure mind. Needs a really good case, which will bulk it up and make it less sleek to do the waistband thing. I still use a
