Nice portable speakers.
These speakers sound pretty good. Most people who hear them seem surprised that they are "portable" and USB powered. The buttons on top that control the selection of the next and previous song don't work with my MacBook, but that is just a minor inconvenience. The sound and volume are just fine for filling a small-medium space with decent quality sound but don't expect to shake any windows or hear the music above a loud group of people. I have had these speakers for about three years and they are still working as new. I would recommend these speakers to friends and would buy them again.

Great Speakers
I just received my Logitech V20 speakers and am excited to get them up and running. After hooking them up I was experiencing some mild crackling/distortion sounds coming from the new speakers. However, I was able to figure out why I was experiencing this problem. Go to the CUSTOMER DISCUSSIONS on the Logitech V20 speaker page, where you will find product description, reviews, and customer discussions. After fixing my issue I have found these speakers to be really nice. They are compact, but have great sound and power for their size. I would recommend these speakers to others who are shopping around. They are alittle pricey, but I guess you get what you pay for. I hope this review helps people who are undecided.

I bought these speakers twice!
We were so happy with this speaker purchase, that we bought a second set as a housewarming gift for a friend. Recommended.

Strikes and Gutters
Being a radio enthusiast I was excited to try the Boom. My primary use is streaming live radio broadcasts. Although the Boom gives good sound, I returned it and purchased the Squeezebox Radio, which costs one hundred dollars less and is a far superior radio.

The Boom's menu is choppy and cumbersome to navigate. Design is uninspired. Build quality is average. The remote is nice, of course, but it doesn't solve the choppy navigation. After an evening of listening, I knew I loved wi-fi radio, but that this was not going to be my unit.

So I took it back and opted for the next generation, the Radio, whose audio (though through a mono speaker) is to be reckoned as sublime. Jazz with Bill Perkins on WRTI Temple Public Radio, 6-9 EST, though the Radio is a Platonic ideal of a listening experience. One cannot imagine a more perfect radio situation in the history of radios.

I do not know what listeners to individual mp3 music collections will think of the Radio, but radio lovers, who seek more than mere audiophilic titillation, will recognize its brilliance immediately. The art deco design and build quality are smart and appreciated.

Forget the Boom. Get Plato's Radio.

Wow Awesome!
Purchased this unit for my bedroom and very suprised on the sound quality of this small unit. Love it's ability to play internet music & stream music from my computer. I was able to download an app on my Moto Droid & now I can control everything from my phone anywhere in the house via wifi. I love this unit so much, I have ordered the Squeezebox Duet for my home stereo system & will update on how that goes. I just have one complain, this is kinda pricey. But I guess you you get what you pay for. Highly recommend this!

A Very Reasonably Priced Terrific Player
The following review contains two parts, the first part id related to this player, and the second part is related to amazon.com...

I bought this player as a gift to my friend, and my sole motivation is my experience with my Logitech Transporter. If you are on market looking for a WiFi music player, please give this gem a chance. I do not have any complain about it at this price level, it even exceed my expectation! Having said these...

When I got the package, open the traditional amazon.com brown box... I found that the seal tapes has 2 layers... So, I carefully removed the top layer, and found out the other layer as seals had been cut open! Open the box, and check what's happening inside the box, I found that the BOOM from amazon.com is NOT BRAND NEW! It is an used unit (with a tiny scratch on the remote control), and I do not believe my trusty amazon.com sell me an open-boxed BOOM as a brand new merchandise! Like I mentioned earlier, this is a gift that I want to give to my friend, this unit is completely un-acceptable! 5 stars for Logitech, but 0 stars for amazon.com.

Good!
It is a good cordless optical mouse. Fits well in my palm. No drivers needed in Windows and it looks cool. My only wish is they shouldve made the receiver shorter. In addition, it doesnt look good when it is tucked underneath the mouse. It would be better if I could "hide" the receiver "inside" the mouse.

Gotta love Logitech
I have always been a huge fan of Logitech products, as they never seem to let you down. I was in the market for a new wireless mouse to go with my new awesome laptop and I knew I wanted a Logitech. When I saw the decorative outer shell, I knew not only was it going to be functional, but it would be pretty to look at as well.

What I didn't expect from this mouse was that it works wonderfully well just sitting on my lap, while wearing flannel pajama pants. It also worked amazingly well on the arm rest of my chair.

I do like the fact that it's not a huge mouse and does fit comfortably in those of us who have smaller hands and it's great that it only takes one battery and lets you know when it's time to change the battery. The mouse also houses the USB connector on the bottom, which will make it a lot easier when I have to pack up the laptop, as I won't have to worry where I put the USB port. It's a great little mouse and I would highly recommend it.

Everything you can expect in a low-priced wireless notebook mouse
My mouse ran pretty well... until I spilled a mug full of sugary tea got on it. But, my clumsiness aside, this is a good working mouse. It's nice and compact for carrying with your netbook. However, you need to weigh its portability with the size of your hands and how comfortable the small mouse will be.

Smooth and simple

I never knew how much easier a cordless mouse would be until I tried this one with my laptop. Now I am hooked and thinking about getting one for the office too.

Since this is designed to be portable, it's a little smaller than some others, which is fine for me but might not be ideal for larger hands. However, the movement is effortless. I recently had a chance to try another, larger wireless mouse by another manufacturer and found that it didn't move as easily - it was slower, or jerkier, or something. It made me really appreciate the smooth movement of this mouse.

It was also completely effortless to install in my Windows XP laptop, and I had no trouble putting in the battery.

Someone said that it has an LED indicator to tell you when the battery is low. I don't see one on mine, so I guess I won't know until it stops working well. I haven't had it long enough to opine on the battery life yet, but assuming that isn't too bad, I will consider this one of my smartest purchases ever.

Logitech cordless headset
I've not used this item with my laptop, but the purpose for a cordless headset with a cell phone has been very successful. It is not as comfortable as the one I previously owned, quality is same, product is made as well as any small item of the like. I wouldn't drop it often. Setting up was with ease.

Overall this is a good product
The ease of use and comfort of the product is better than I expected. Sound quality is good. The only feedback I've heard was there was an echo for the person I was talking to. I turn the volume down, which reduced the echo, but made it a little difficult to hear when there's ambient noice. I would recommend.

Hmmmmmm
I bought this product for skype applications and on first attempt after installation software was not able to make it work. I called Logitech and they were unable to as well. They suggested I had a defective unit. The company I purchased from graciously sent another device and I was able to reinstall the software and utilize with ease using the Skype application. I was very pleased. Additionally, the device could be used as a bluetooth headset for my cell (which was much easier to hook up and worked fine). The problem came when I tried to use for my skype application last nite. I shut off the phone, as directed, intiated skype and made a call that did not work (yes I checked all the audio settings). I am perplexed. I will explore whether my laptop's bluetooth fuction is the culprit. At this point, I wish I would've paid 20 bucks more for the other headset I was considering. The verdict is still out but feeling a bit frustrated, B

Comfortable and reliable
Scroll wheel does not really make you fly within a page. Need to adjust your settings. Buttons are very soft and responsive. Good mouse.

Decent Mouse
Okay, it's a mouse and it does what mice do. Point & click. Ba da bing.

I wasn't sure about how I might like the free-spooling wheel (which you can set to traditional mode if you don't like that), but have decided I like it. You're thinking how you might use it to scroll down long pages, but it turns out that the fast spinning is most often used scrolling back to the top of pages for me. I might read my way down a long page and then spin the wheel and zip back to the top to reach the navigation.

I have seen intermittent issues (not that often) when it's less responsive than it should be, but I can't tell if the interference might be a cordless phone, the wifi, the fact that its receiver is behind my desk or what.

On ergonometrics, I replaced a Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 2 (whose wheel got ultra stiff making it unusable) with this new Logitech mouse, which is more narrow. I wish it were wider for my hands.

Comfortable Easy to Use Wireless Mouse
Logitech makes some great mice, and this is no exception. Plug it in and it works. Fits my hand well (typical size male hands). Buttons have a solid feel. You can turn the "clicks" in the scroll wheel on and off, which is a nice option depending on what you're scrolling. I'll be interested to see how long the batteries last.

Audio engineer review
I just opened the box and turned them on, and they are truly awesome. True, the speakers have some noise you can hear when no music is playing, but the audio quality is great, the touch controls are cool, and they are REALLY well made, HEAVY SPEAKERS, THICK THICK THICK cords! YAY, they won't short out like my crappy harmon/kardons. Great stereo imaging. Killer price, too. Hey, I can't believe the bass is so good without a woofer. I can't stop touching them.

Logitech Z-10 Laptop USB Speakers
Lacking the thunderous bottom end of a subwoofer, but possess a full-bodied, warm sound. Perfect for classic rock.
Nice display that shows not only song info but also a clock is a plus.

Best computer speakers period
I may not have the ears of the top audiophiles, but still I'm going to claim of the excellent sound quality. These are the best computers speakers in my opinion. I bought them refurbished at a lower price. I'm happy to say that despite that, the Logitech driver was easy to find for windows, the speaker's buttons control my media player Winamp very well.

I love the look and the light touch. If you are upgrading your computer, getting these and maybe a dinovo edge keyboard is like the rolls royce setup.

The USB connection is nice because you can trust the beefiness of the cable and the accurate connection over maybe a cheap sound card, or on board audio port's quality. You still get an analog line input for things like smaller media players. They look so beautiful bookending my dual monitor setup. It's quality you will be happy with for sure.

Great sound!
This is one of better computer speaker that I had. The sound is incredible. LCD screen is not very sensitive at times.

Review about vendor ComputerGeeks
Don't order through ComputerGeeks. They said they were out of stock on this mouse, so they sent me something completely different. Can you believe that? I would have rather waited, but they didn't give me an option. Just said they were sending out a "suitable alternative". Pretty dissappointed.

Amazon service and products
I am very satisfied with the delivery time and the quality of items I have purchased through Amazon.com.
