Maybe you got a counterfeit product, plus way to link to the same picture twice. ;)

fixed.... and I don't think so.

I hate to give into annoying and overused internet memes but this is definitely a "spelling fail"

I know a genuine 'Panaphonics' when I see one. And look! There's Magnet Box and Sorny!



Insignia is Best Buy's house brand right?

Ever read the instructions in your average "Made in China" product?? I have a term for it, "Chinglish", the strangled attempt at English by people whose first language is Chinese.

Most electronics I've bought have at least one example of Chinglish in their instructions. ;)

My friend bought a cheap USB steering wheel for his computer and the instruction manual called it an Electronic Steering Elucidation Device. I lol'd.

You say 'major brand electronics' and then say it's an Insignia.

Does not compute
