This is a follow-up of sorts to my previous article, “Tasting Gingerbread: A WebOS User Dabbles In The Android Waters”. I’m still using a Palm Pre+ hacked to run on Sprint, but I know this can’t last forever. With webOS’s uncertain future almost certainly not including phones, I’ve continued to look elsewhere. That’s why when […]
There’s an official native Gmail app for iOS! What’s that? It came out already? And they pulled it down after less than a day because it was so buggy? Oh, well, it’s available again! But only in the US app store. This time, it seems to be working correctly and it’s pretty slick. However, it’s still […]
Electronics giant Samsung keeps pumping out devices. This time we’re looking at the Samsung Galaxy Player. As you might guess from the name, the Galaxy Player is not actually a phone. Instead, it’s a personal media player (PMP). Why would you want a separate dedicated PMP when odds are you already have a smartphone, you […]
One of the nice things about Android is that you have so many options to fit your personal needs, style, and budget. The downside is that the user experience varies widely, especially when dealing with lower budget handsets.

It’s hard to imagine a better time for smartphone buyers. With last week’s announcements of the new RAZR and Galaxy Nexus as well as Apple’s iPhone 4S burning up sales records, you can pretty much be sure of a powerful, robust phone on any network. Except, what if you don’t want to wait for the […]
Samsung’s been going a bit mad with the tablets, and we love them for it. Not content to have a 10”and a 7”, they’ve also introduced a 8.9” tablet, also known as the Portfolio. Slightly bigger than the Tab 7” and sporting Android Honeycomb instead of Gingerbread, the Portfolio also has something the Samsung Galaxy […]
For those of us content to get our entertainment media from our PCs, the last few years have brought a wealth of options. Photos, music, movies, TV, whether downloaded or streamed, it’s virtually impossible to say there’s nothing on anymore. Unfortunately, the PC entertainment experience often leaves something to be desired when it compared to […]
Ever since I purchased my early 2010 edition of the 17″ Macbook Pro, I’ve found it somewhat inconvenient transitioning between using it on my desk at home and taking it with me. Apple tries to offer a solution by way of purchasing one of their costly Cinema displays which integrates a mag-safe power cable and […]
Receiving review units is always a bit of a thrill, but sometimes there can be a catch. Case in point, the Cocoon Grid-It. This is a unique accessory, but the snag was that I didn’t have the device it was meant for. This particular unit holds a Macbook Air. However, I soon discovered it […]
Kabam, an online game developer, is bringing The Godfather to Facebook with their newest browser-based game, The Godfather: Five Families. They’re currently testing their beta and inviting select users, who sign up on their website, to play.
