Archos goes monumental. Again.
The French always liked big things. Look at the Eiffel Tower. Now that’s big. Now it wouldn’t so surprising that France would then release one of the largest internet tablets around. It’s the Archos 101.
But while Archos goes big and heavy, it maintains its prices light and easy. After all, it’s the only way to compete against the likes of Ipad and Samsung. Why pay top dollar from a relatively new player when the Ipad offers a lower price, right? Continue Reading »

Who needs Pacsafe Bags? Check out my raised hands and feet!
PacSafe Anti-Theft Bag
The reason is that I frequently travel toc ountries rife with hooligans and thieves. Have you ever landed at a decrepit airport only to be mugged by customs, overcharged by the cabbies, then slashed of your bodybags at the fleamarket? It happened to me a lot. The most saddening time was when a burly dude in what looked like pajamas ripped the strap of my prada and made off with my wallet as I struggled to collect my spilt belongings.
Thank God Pacsafe bags and pouches came along. Continue Reading »
Pacsafe Anti-Theft Bags Review
Yes yes yes. I know you want to experience the 5x faster processor. The twin cameras. The superb smart cover. I did. So I went out
and bought one on launch date. Sheez. I should have waited for the version 2 release of the Ipad 2.0. This thing is buggy as hell. For starters, the company spits out fringed pictures at certain periods. Then, it often fails after long hibernation. And that lag? The processor hangs at infrequent intervals.
I had high hopes. This was to be my dream toy, but the firmware requires work. Apple rushed the unit to market to soon, so much so that the Ipad 1.0 sings more beautifully than this rushed monster.
Wait till the firmware update. Save yourself some grief.
Well not exactly. But it’s the next best thing to unleashing almost demonic intuition on the greens. It’s enough to get your partners
screaming hell. Or sending you to heaven with your putters stuck in your back. You see, the Callaway Upro MX provides truly customized GPS experiences to those who play golf. Standard GPS just won’t do. When you game, you need one that shows you the traps, the holes, the water ways. The Callaway does all that. Continue Reading »

Withings WiFi Body Scale appreciates the power of shame. It tells everyone your weight. Even your ex.
The Withings WiFi Body Scale is an odd Wi-Fi scale that links to the internet and automatically registers your body weight, body fat, and BMI calculation. The scale links directly to your secure account on the Withings website or to a free iPhone app supplied by Withings. The application is your dashboard where you can view all of the data collected by the scale in graphical format. Hence you’ll have a site to scold you about that pizza you snarfed when you go online . Continue Reading »

Do you have stuff? Sure, you do. In fact, it’s likely you even have stuff you’re not using right now. Why, I bet you even have some stuff you’d like to put into storage for use at a later date. If you just so happen to have an attic, then you’re in luck. You’re just steps away from having a veritable bounty of storage space. The steps needed are, of course, a drop down attic ladder. Drop down ladders allow for convenient impromptu access to your newfound home storage unit without dragging out a rickety step ladder or standing on Mom’s dining room chairs. Warner’s Universal Attic Ladder is lightweight, convenient, affordable and can be installed by many do-it-yourselfers. Continue Reading »

Noise canceling technology may be the greatest thing since sliced bread. Think about it, can sliced bread make a cross country trip in a cramped airliner any better? Likely not. Sliced bread will not silence Bob, the over-caffeinated insurance salesman who wants to be your new friend. Nor will it turn that screaming banshee of a toddler into a model of decorum. No, sliced bread is no match for noise canceling headphones. Continue Reading »

Do you have Apple’s latest toy?
Im So happy I purchased the iPhone 4 by Apple. The email and internet allow me to work from just about anywhere, which has added tremendous flexibility for my work schedule. Also I’m able to play games with other iPhone users via apps. Staying connected is important to me and this phone gives me more access than I could have ever imagined.
This is a great phone, but I’m pretty clumsy and drop it on several occasions. Since the back cover and front screen are made of glass the phone is definitely not shatterproof. This I learned firsthand after I dropped it on the sidewalk and watched back of the device crack like a windshield. I was able to get it fixed quickly, however I made sure to add a new case to the price of the repair. Overall I definitely recommend the iPhone 4 to anyone looking for a smartphone.

I love my Playstation 3 and my Xbox 360. Especially my Xbox 360. The problem is- the latter doesn’t love me so much.
Every so often it conks out. A trip to the local repair center becomes mandatory as does forking over quite a thick wad of cash.
“$50 sir. We fixed your whazoozit”
“HUH?” And it turns out they just replaced an itty bitty whazoozit that looked like $00.05
Oh well. That’s the ropes of having to play Halo.
If you’re one of the Xbox Addicts who’ve run into the common “Red Ring Of Death” or the sudden blackout, you’d want to learn how to repair your Xbox. With the Xbox Repair Guide, everything you need to know about tweaking whazoozits and whatsitsnames are explained. You can resume playing after whipping out your screwdriver. Continue Reading »

With more and more netbooks popping out, external hard disks are becoming popular. Plug in a 300 gb hard disk and voila! Your 20GB eeePC suddenly has the power of its larger cousins.

A generation of music fans brought up on a diet of personal listening via their MP3 players are losing touch with the joys of shared music due to the growing availability of cheap tinny speakers with in-built iPod docks. Manufacturers are jumping on the bandwagon and developing low-cost, low fidelity iPod accessories in a market estimated to be worth US$1.8 billion annually . Continue Reading »
