DavidPFarrell commented on Review: Scrubbing Bubbles Automatic Shower Cleaner is the Worst Gadget I Have Ever Used In My Entire Life

"I've been using one for awhile now with okay results. Some notes: *) I use Tilex as refill because it costs half as much *) You don't need to drill holes in order to refill - Just force the top open with a pair of pliers the first time or two and then you can open/close it pretty easy. *) I keep a plastic cup in the shower that I use to very quickly wash down the walls - Not every time, just whenever I think about it, which I'd say is less than twice a week Even then it is not absolutely perfect, but it extends the time between full shower cleanups TREMENDOUSLY! So for me, it is worth it."

But I tried firefox.com and it worked great and led me here to dl the file: [www.mozilla.com] The link appears to do a redirect to the mirrors - The first mirror it tried was bogged down but the 2nd one worked great and I was able to DL firefox in under 15 seconds. NOTE: The above link is for the Windows version of FF3."

"I think the EZ210 was quite underrated in this comparison. Low light was not great, but full light video and excellent audio pickup for the wins! Also the EZ210 is selling for $88 at Amazon right now. No free shipping as its through a 3rd party"
