Packing a laptop with a full-sized keyboard, screen bigger than many use with their desktop and the sort of specs that gobble through even the most capacious of batteries has always struck me as cheating a little. Call me old fashioned, but I do like my notebook to be portable and my desktop to be [...]
I’m truly amazed at just how much time I’ve spent playing my Wii lately. I mean, knew that I’d be into it, but it has been dominating most of my gaming time of late. I’ve picked up new game that I thought I’d share with you, thought you’ve probably experienced it elsewhere before. I’m [...]
This isn’t the first ThoughtOut iPod/iPhone holder I’ve had the pleasure of reviewing, but the PED3, the last model I reviewed, definitely gave me far fewer problems. The idea behind this stand is great, but something about the “coil” causes the implementation to have some pretty serious problems, as a regular stand, but it more [...]
It’s hard for a game like Super Smash Bros. Brawl to live up to expectations. It’s easily been one of the most highly-anticipated games on the Wii, and Melee did phenomenal sales on the GameCube. So was it everything I had hoped it would be? Hit the jump for my full review.
Data backup falls resolutely at the dreary end of the tech-task scale; periodically market researchers release stats showing how few people take the time to safely copy their accumulated files, usually prompting a guilty DVD burning session which never gets repeated. Apple’s Time Capsule, then, was welcomed with excited upon its announcement; with the [...]
When they can fit a webcam into a milimeter-depth notch in a laptop’s screen bezel, a manufacturer would have to be offering something pretty impressive to sell one standing eight inches tall on your desktop.

I’ve seen several headsets recently that use bone conduction to get what was said to you, to you, but they were lacking the voice part that goes on your neck for direct connection to your voice box. Now we have a headset that has the voice box part but some dinky little ear bud for [...]
This is the final half of my review of the Axiotron ModBook, sadly I am shipping it out, back to them, tomorrow. I must first say that I have surely fallen in love with the MacBook and OS X as a result of this review as I’d never used either prior to this review.
Despite its best multimedia intentions, Toshiba’s X205-SLi4 notebook is always now going to be criticized for having an HD-DVD drive rather than Blu-Ray; but is this a single chink in its vast armor, or a sign of disappointment to come? SlashGear squared up to the $2,499, 9.37lb monster to find out.
The specs on this tablet PC may not be much, but the fact that it can take a beating and keep on ticking is worth its weight in gold if that’s what you need at work. Its rated MIL STD 810F, which basically means it can withstand significant shock, water, dust, and even extreme temperatures [...]
