Remember that transition in 2001: A Space Odyssey where the monkey throws a bone into the air, and it turns into a spaceship? That’s what I just did by upgrading my Razr phone to an iPhone 4S. I’d had my Razr phone for seven years and it was nothing but good to me. Sturdy construction, […]
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 […]
Last week, hard disk manufacturing plants in Thailand shut down due to flooding. Affected facilities include two Western Digital plants, which they estimate could be offline for up to eight months. These two plants produce approximately 60 percent of their products. (A third plant in Malaysia is unaffected by the floods.) Seagate has two Thailand […]
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 […]
My friend S (not his real name, obviously) decided to take advantage of the excellent price drop on the iPhone 4 and pick one up. Except when he told me this he prefaced it with “Now don’t be upset but…” This isn’t the first time something like this has happened and I’m always amused by […]
Google’s long-awaited new flagship device, the Galaxy Nexus was officially announced last night. It’s a powerhouse of a phone, sporting a 1.2 GHz dual-core processor, a 720p HD Super AMOLED display, and a camera that can record video in 1080p, just for starters. There are LTE and HSPA+ versions of the device, which means we […]
Here’s a bit of news that absolutely fits our site’s mandate: HP has updated the end-of-lifed TouchPad’s version of webOS to 3.0.4. There are some nice little tweaks (support for OGG files, a camera app at last, and performance boosts), but the main thing I can’t wait to try is the phone pairing. Originally, you […]
We’re fairly fond of Samsung here at Techcitement. They make good products, are kind enough to send us review units, and invite us to events. However, what kind of blog would we be if we did not point out when companies we like do something stupid? No, we’re not talking about Ch@tOn, Samsung’s addition to […]
[yframe url=’http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kdHgEeE1HQ’] Samsung’s offering at CTIA 2011 was, shall we say, slightly less exciting than it was supposed to be. You could kind of tell that from the display booth they had. It was large, but felt like it was missing something. That said, Samsung didn’t come to the show empty handed. It’s not like […]
