All three of you who care, Amazon is shipping the way overpriced Kindle DX Today, I preordered one for review so according to the shipping schedule I should get mine tomorrow. I made no secret of my love of the Kindle 1 (Kindle 2, not so much) so I’ll be curious to see the DX […]

APPLE NEWS: New iPhone 3Gs Announced at Underwhelming Press Conference!
Color me underwhelmed by today’s WWDC Keynote, they spent way too much time going over “cool” apps for the iPhone, but it’s now official there’s a 32-Gig iPhone. I just signed up with AT&T a few months ago and the only thing I really wanted was more storage, so assuming I can upgrade (which I […]
APPLE WWDC: WWDC Starts today, iPhones, SDK 3.0 and more!
Anyone who knows me knows that I’m not an Apple Fangirl, I’m actually a Windows Fangirl who uses Apple Products. Although, I’m seriously considering switching back to Windows because I’m tired of getting gear that doesn’t play nicely with my Macbook and I don’t particularly like running Parallels. I find it slow, sluggish and just […]
NETBOOK REVIEW: HP Mini 1000 Almost Convince Michelle Netbooks are Cool!
I’ll be the first to admit that I don’t get the whole Netbook thing but after spending a week with the HP’s sexy little Mini 1000, I understand just a bit more. It still not for me but there is a certain appeal to the idea of having an almost full-featured computer for $299. The […]
MOBILE PHONE REVIEW – T-Mobile’s Blackberry Curve 8900 is a Tease
Here’s one of the reasons I hate being on the low-end of the PR Press List (although I do generally get things after Engadget and Cnet gets done with them). While everyone else is out reviewing the new sexy Palm Pre (which I think is pretty ugly), I’m here reviewing the Blackberry Curve 8900 for […]
COOL TECH REVIEW: Gigatribe an Easy P2P Networking Tool
I feel really bad about this review; the fine folks at Gigatribe sent me a code months ago to review their new secured file sharing system. The fact that it’s not Mac compatible and is Windows only doesn’t help matters. Basically what happens is you go to gigatribe.com and download an application that essentially is […]
GEAR NEWS: The Zune HD is Official and coming to X-Box 360

COOL-TECH: New JVC HDTV Set Specifically for Photographers
Here’s something interesting. The folks at JVC have just launched a brand new HDTV set – the JVC Xiview LT-42WX70 designed for folks who use Digital SLR Cameras. The theory is that you high-end photographers want a television that’s truly capable of reproducing all of your super sharp images as perfectly as possible. But really, […]
COOL TECH: Kindle DX is About Perfect, But Costs Way Too Much
Checked out the Amazon press conference and the Kindle DX is exactly what I want my Kindle to be – 8 1/2 by 11 that actually rotates is pretty hot and full PDF support (big deal for some, not for me as I don’t use PDFs for anything), and a built in 3.3 Gigs worth […]
COOL TECH: Amazon Announces new Kindle DX Today
Later today the folks at Amazon are holding an event to announce their new large screen Kindle DX. Rumor has it the new DX will have a new 9.7 inch screen, better support for PDFs and a better web browser. I have the first Kindle and absolutely love it – bought over 50 books for […]
COOL GEAR: Get your Custom Battlestar Galactica Zune!
Damn those SyFy people and their Caprica. I think I’m officially done saying this will be my last Battlestar Galactica post because the show will never go away and they’ve gone and done it. They’ve crossed over into gadget land and created an amazingly cool custom Zune complete with the Caprica logo and custom Content. […]
