For the Manscaping Metrosexual (or the Preggo who can't reach her legs and crotch)
So I got this in the mail. I'm hoping it wasn't a hint or something from some person the street who accidentally brushed up against my leg. Yes. I'm wearing pants. That's how bad it is.
But honestly, it's a pretty cool thing, the Philips Norelco Body Groom (BG2020) -- at least according to the huz. He gave it a whirl (I politely refused the experimental shave) and found it to be tru to form. Safe with less irritation and great for wet and dry. It's rechargable and cordless, and can truly be used on the entire body. Toes included (don't ask).
His only complaint? It didn't seem as though the different attachments cut different lengths. Now this is not to say it's a bad thing, but I imagine some folks want their arm pit hair longer than their back hair (just a thought there, however, I could be incredibly wrong).
For $40, it's not a bad investment, even for yourself.
For the Anti-Establishment (READ: APPLE) Folks Who Still Want Some Type of MP-3 Player
For the record, I have nothing against iPods. I find them to be sleek and handy and hey, they're from a company with a good healthy fruit as their logo so how can you go wrong. The huz, however, thinks Apple is trying to take over the world and refuses to buy one.
How timely, then, that I get asked to review this Insignia 2 GB Video MP2 Player. Let's just say he hasn't taken the thing off his head.
According to him, it's well worth the $120 -- easy to use, great video screen, and just enough memory for folks who don't need to be carrying around 15 full screen movies. It's fairly compact and easy to fit in any pocket, purse, you name it.
His gripes? Well, the volume control is a bit odd in that you need it to be at around 20 for it be audible - which just didn't make sense to him. And for software? You need to download a bunch of stuff from BestBuy and it is a bit tedious. However, it was worth it to him, apparently, because he figured it out fairly quickly.
If you're looking for a great little video mp3, check this one out.
And thanks to the powers that be, I've done all my Christmas shopping for my husband. Too bad I told him we shouldn't exchange gifts this year.
