Digital camera reviews of Griffin Technology PowerMate 1040-PMT USB Multimedia Controller and Input Device (Aluminum, PC/Mac)
Digital camera Review: Yes it pulses and glows, but...
Summary: 1 Stars
I have PowerMate v1.5.3 for a couple of days and I already have several problems with it...
1 - When I installed it I had a message telling me that a new version was available... I downloaded it, but when I double clicked on it to re-launch the installation I get AGAIN the same message telling me that a new version was available. It is endless...
2 - When I put my PC to hibernate, the PowerMate doesn't always come back to life after switching on again the computer. I had to re-install it completely to make it work.
3 - When I reboot my computer, the PowerMate icon in the system tray appears with a black sign on it telling that it is not active, and it is not active! So I have to unplug/replug the USB to make it active...
4 - And ultimately I am still expecting an answer (or any sign) from Griffin Technologies support about these major issues.
PS: I installed PowerMate on Windows XP Pro SP2
Digital camera Review: You "get it" or you don't "get it"
Summary: 5 Stars
So many people are probably baffled by this device. They think it is just a knob that does nothing but look cool, but these people are WRONG. You can do so much with this device. It has per-application settings, so you can have one setting for iMovie and another setting for the Finder, etc... You can have this device alter your sound volume, scrub through movies, perform commands. For example, you navigate through your iTunes library. The software is so open-ended, you can have a click simulate a key combo. The software even distinguishes between click and "long click."Digital camera Review: cool idea, bad software

Digital camera Review: doesn't work with After Effects timeline
Summary: 1 Stars
Doesn't work with Adobe After Effects timeline. From keyboard I use "PgUp" and "PgDn" keystrokes to move left and right. However when I assign these keystrokes to Griffin Powermate it doesn't work at all. Called they technical support, but they had nothing to say.
