Armitron Sport Men's 20/5157NVY Analog-Digital Chronograph Navy Blue Resin Strap Watch


Amitron makes an attractive watch.  This model had buttons that were far easier to push than the last one I reviewed.   The instructions are still printed in a font that practically defies anyone to read it is so small however I have seen smaller.  The settings were easier to do than the last model as well.  However, do not, I repeat, do not lose the instructions.  there is nothing intuitive about the watch besides setting the analog time.   Everything else is press this button until that flashes and then press that button to change whatever it is you want to change.   This watch, as well as the last Amitron I reviewed,  are appropriate for the gadget prone consumer.  Unless you are willing to read the instructions, I doubt if you will ever use anything but the analog time function.  I do like the light, that is a feature that I use with surprising frequency.  I went to Amitron's website to see if I could download a copy of the instructions and thusly print it in a much larger, like 12 pt font but the site said there was no information on the watch and to call.   I put in the 20/4942 model as well and got the same no information message.  That does not bode well for either model.

Samsung FlipShot-ho hum

I just got the Samsung FlipShot aka SCH-U900. If you haven’t noticed by now, I am very family oriented, specifically focused on grandchildren. I frequently lament that I don’t have my camera on me. However, I always have my phone on me. Thusly I wanted a phone with a decent camera. The FlipShot comes close. Samsung claims it is a 3 megapixel camera with flash and zoom. The photos are not what I would consider decent from a digital camera but compared to my last phone/camera, they are much better. The phone has a slot for a micro sd memory card. I popped a 2gb card in there for saving my photos. I have not been able to find a way to default the photos to the memory card. You have to manually move them. I haven’t given up and perhaps in a software upgrade there will be a way to get them to the card without moving them manually. Getting them off of the phone is interesting. If you don’t buy Samsung’s charging/data cable, you can send them to yourself and get them on your pc that way. You
