The Night Reader Hardcover adds a little finesse to late-night reading
I think a book light is probably the dorkiest gadget ever. I mean what self-respecting person would be seen with one?! Okay, so I own one. What?

Sprint Upstage retraction: scrolling through long playlist is now a breeze!
Sometimes a rough hands-on review is simply that, very rough. As a result, you’re going to miss a thing or two. In the case of the Upstage, one of the biggest complaints I had had to flick through my long playlist. Well my friends, I’ve flick no more; I’ve seen the light.
So for the record, this is no longer an issue for me. I’ve recorded a short video for your viewing pleasure (Youtube still processing the video – it should be live shortly).
I’m bumping the Upstage up to 3.5 out 5 stars as a result of this finding.

Details unfold about the million dollar laptop
We finally have more information on the $1 million laptop we covered last week. As it turns out, you'll get some nice hardware for your money, but nothing to justify a million bucks. A 17-inch LED backlit screen and a Blu-ray drive just aren't enough to justify the price.
