I got this for an early Christmas Gift. I love it. I always shave a little Cinnamon into my mug and it eventually settles to the bottom when I am having a busy day. One push of the button saves the day. Day one…. I have placed my favorite mug away for this gem. This more powerful than it looks!!

yeah, they sort of hide it on this page:

http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html

It’s written as plain text below the “Upgrade Now” area written as “QuickTime Standalone Installer”.

Sneaky ones, those Apple folk. Reminds of how Real used to bury their free Real Player back in the day.

You can still get Quicktime without iTunes right on Apple’s site:

The video is encoded in the H.264 codec. You need the latest version of Quicktime to view the video. If you don’t want to install iTunes to get QuickTime, VLC ( http://www.videolan.org/vlc/) will work too. It’s a free viewer.

I didn’t try to run the batteries down. I’ve used the cup for several days and it’s still going strong. I assume that as the batteries get low, that the rotor will just spin slower.

Great review as always Julie. You guys should be winning the Bloggie awards because you do such great in-depth reviews. But then WE would have to vote for you, and I didn’t remember those votes were going on. We need to be better. Maybe next year.

Umm…small error in the Con section:
“Can immerse in water or wash in a dishwasher” should be:
Can NOT immerse in water or wash in a dishwasher

It’s clear in the main text. I know, I should get a life, this is how I procrastinate.
