The tech products you shouldn’t buy or gift — even on Black Friday
So my colleagues and I are sharing five tech (-ish) purchases that we regretted. It’s a subjective guide to products you should not buy.
They include a keyboard tray that broke three times, a pair of wireless headphones that never fit right and pet technology that failed to help a dog “speak” to its human friend.
Our regrets show that even journalists who question everything can be swayed by what’s popular or what can seem too good to be
Ten years ago, my wife and I moved our family members to a superb rural area in the Muskoka area of Ontario, Canada. In urban regions, they have cable, dsl and just about each and every type of Web service there is. For these of us rural, we’re fortunate if we have any service at all. All the wonderful announcements about the fantastic high speed wireless internet in rural Ottawa are masking the situation that Xplornet is not delivering to buyers what they are promising in the news.
We service all around Amarillo, Bushland, Washburn, Canyon, Dumas, Dawn, Claude and most of the Panhandle. You can hook a laptop or smartphone straight to the hotspot to see if you can get internet directly. Lastly, even when the discounts wear off, I am nevertheless hunting at a $30 reduction in my monthly net bill. I would be staying with them but they are no longer cost competitive and I’m lucky adequate to now have competition in my location.
