About Butterfly


Hikosuke Tamasu founded Tamasu Co., Ltd. in the small town of Yanai City, Japan in 1950. This was the beginning of a company career which is almost unique in table tennis. A renowned international for Japan, Tamasu fulfilled his dream of a lifetime when he made his hobby his profession. At that time, he could hardly imagine that he would make Butterfly the leading brand worldwide. Creativity, durability, and a profound technical knowledge meant success. 0ver and over again he looked for new possibilities in order to optimize techniques by innovative playing material. Tamasu realized that each player is different and has strengths and weaknesses. By offering individual playing material Tamasu wanted to help players right from the beginning to emphasize their individuality. Since 1983 Butterfly has its own training and research center in Tokyo. Highly qualified scientists co-operate with world class players and coaches for the development of rubber and blade technology. Butterfly's rubbers and blades are used by more than half of the participants at World and European Championships.

Buyer Reviews
Average Buyer Rating:  out of 5 stars

Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good value for the money
A month later and I am still playing on the first ball. There was some concern about quality with 72 balls in a plastic bag. The balls bounce and sound fine so concerns averted.



Customer Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - this is not standard practice ball
rememeber this is USATT approved and not ITTF approved - the balls are terrible - bad shape, light and everything else that can go wrong - so if you are a serious player please do not buy these balls. But if you are a basement player then this may be a good deal.



Customer Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Quality
The balls are very light and I wonder it meets the 3 star standard/ I am ver dissapointed.



Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Balls; on my second set
I have a Robo Pong 2040 so these balls are an economical choice for me. I don't really understand where this negative feedback is coming from. I just received my second bucket of balls (my first was purchased over a year ago and the balls were fine). I personally bounced each ball and served it into the machine's reservoir; all 72 balls bounced evenly.

I purchased the balls directly from Amazon both times, perhaps this is the reason for the inconsistent reviews? Either way, I am loving the value of these! This second set should mean I'll be able to practice much longer before having to pick up loose balls. :)

We've covered in too much detail how it's some sort of "open season" on Vonage when it comes to VoIP patents. After dealing with ridiculous and expensive patent lawsuits from companies who failed to actually innovate in the same way Vonage did, the company was pressured by Wall Street to quickly settle the various patent lawsuits filed against the company. Of course, rather than settle matters, that simply opened the door for other companies to go searching through their patent portfolios to see if there was anything they could sue Vonage over. Indeed, following those settlements it didn't take long for AT&T to dig up a patent and sue -- which was quickly settled as well. Thought things were over? No such luck. Nortel just showed up last month to sue and it took all of about a week and a half for Vonage to settle that case as well.

The Nortel case is slightly different because Vonage actually already had a patent infringement lawsuit going against Nortel, but it wasn't really initiated by Vonage. Instead, it had been initiated by a patent holding firm that Vonage bought in 2006. The end result of the settlement doesn't involve money changing hands, but just a cross licensing agreement for the patents. So what's the big lesson that Vonage and others have learned from this? It's certainly got nothing to do with innovating. It's to hoard as many patents as possible so that you have your own nuclear stockpile for when someone else sues you. Want to know why the USPTO is overwhelmed? It's not because there aren't enough examiners (as some will claim) or that there aren't enough funds. It's because the way the system now works is that you are supposed to file patents on every tiny little advancement so you can use it to protect yourself against lawsuits from everyone else. That's not about innovation. It's about waste. In the meantime, since it's still open season at Vonage, who's going to be next? There are a ton of other patents in the VoIP space that can surely be used in a lawsuit, right?

Small and light enough for a shirt pocket, Samsung's Helix YX-M1 is a one-stop audio entertainment center with an XM radio, a digital music player, and room for 50 hours of tunes, but it comes up short on battery life.

This raw work-flow application isn't the Holy Grail many hoped it would be, but Apple Aperture 1.5 could make life easier for photographers who need to cull, retouch, and output large numbers of photographs quickly and efficiently.
