The number one wireless provider in the U.S. has teamed up with the number one DVD-rental machine company to take down the company that defined DVD-rental by mail and has been defining video streaming. Unlike the other big announcement this week from Redbox’s parent company Coinstar, this might seem like an odd bit of synergy […]
As you’ve probably read here and elsewhere, if you were expecting the major consumer electronics companies to show up to CES 2012 with their latest and greatest hardware that would revolutionize your life, it was something of a disappointment.

Motorola unveiled the Droid RAZR for Verizon today, and it’s an extremely svelte, powerful, and fast Gingerbread-powered phone. Bringing back the iconic RAZR brand popular in the early 00’s, Motorola is trying to gain back some of its former glory. Since the first revitalization of Motorola with original Droid back in November 2009, Motorola has […]
