Way too expensive?
I’ve had almost all the Samsung Galaxies and for me the S7 was the worst. Even the guy at the Samsung Experience agreed with me.
@heartny What didn’t you like about it? I have the S7 edge and don’t have any issues.
@lichme It was very slow to respond and process. Sometimes scrolling was painfully slow. I upgraded to the Note 8 and noticed a difference immediately. The Samsung Experience guy said the S7 wasn’t designed to handle the operating system after I updated.
Anyone need a pink otterbox with that holder thing for the S5? Someone gave it to me thinking it fit an iphone 5s (which is what I have) nope. Cost to you is postage.

Eton Solar Speaker or Weather Radio
Price: $29.99 - $49.99
Condition: New
Woot’s sale on the Eton FRX5 emergency radio is a decent product, and a good value, but better option is this Kaito KA600L for $67, no tax, free shipping by Amz.
5 way power, 2000mah battery, plus AM, FM, LW, SW, NOAA, flashlight and lantern, temp and humidity.
@ruouttaurmind Thank you for helping me spend my money. Not!
@ruouttaurmind It does look pretty nice. Does exactly what I need it for. Yes, I bought it. -sigh-
@Barney
If you would like more assistance which would help you have more free time…
@PlacidPenguin Gee, thanks for offering to help me remodel Mom’s basement!
@Barney
I once also offered to paint your shed.
@PlacidPenguin Have you ever painted a shed?
@Barney
@PlacidPenguin That’s what I thought.

After:
@PlacidPenguin You’re hired. I’ll pay you in fish.
@Barney Did you get the Eton on Woot, or the Kaito on Amz?
@ruouttaurmind The Kaito on Amazon and it’s all your fault.
@Barney @ruouttaurmind
Isn’t everything though?
@Barney It’s a decent radio. I have the KA500 (non-digital version) and I gave my mom and step dad the KA600. Both are good radios. The 600L improved on the 600 with a larger internal rechargeable battery.
I hope it does exactly what you need it for.
I keep Eton FRX2 radios in my vehicles. Hand crank/solar cell phone charger, plus radio and flashlight to boot.
@ruouttaurmind Tornado season around here. My old radio died last year and I kept putting off buying a new one. This radio (unfortunately) will get a lot of use, so I’ll be nice and thank you for posting it.
@Barney
If you really wanted to thank me though, I’d accept an infant Cottonmouth snake or two…
@PlacidPenguin
@Barney That’s why I got one for Mom. She keeps it in the root cellar so she has light and radio/weather reception during warning periods.
@Barney
Are you confusing snakes with horses again?
@PlacidPenguin nope
@Barney
@Barney I was feeling so bad about making you buy that radio last week, so I had to buy myself a new radio this morning (my Eton portable radio was stolen in a home burglary last year)
Look what I bought!
@Barney @ruouttaurmind
PURPLE!
@narfcake The one that was stolen was a nice bright green color. Perfect for the zombie apocalypse. But I’m afraid the purple is gonna get the Sharpie treatment. Not that there’s anything wrong with purple, but it’s not my bag, baby.
@narfcake @Barney
I feel like @ruouttaurmind needs toilet paper thrown at him.
@Barney @PlacidPenguin @ruouttaurmind

@ruouttaurmind I don’t love you anymore.
@Barney
Is Lady at least less bitter towards you?
@PlacidPenguin One thing about dogs is that they quickly forgive.
Lady went on her visit to the nursing home, was loved by all the residents, and she found yummy crumbs on the floor for snacking.
Yep, she’s feeling okay.
@Barney I don’t hate purple. I don’t even dislike purple. It’s just not my jam. Gray is my favorite non-color.
But purple can be cool too…
@ruouttaurmind
Hmpf.
Hmpf. The sound Barney makes when irritated.
