With CES 2009 closing tonight, I think it is safe to say that the biggest announcement/drool-worthy gadget at this year’s largest gadgets show was the Palm Pre. Upon first look, the phone isn’t too impressive. But if you’re curious to take a good look at what the interweb has been buzzing about since its announcement […]
Pogo Sketch Stylus…For Those of Us Without Tablets!
Being a designer without a tablet can be a major PITA. I’ve always wanted one but never really got around to getting one of my own due to sheer laziness. Besides, the lack of a tablet has led me to become pretty damn good with a mouse or trackpad. Now, Pogo has released a stylus […]
I Gots Myself a G1!
As much as I love my Voyager, I think I’ve overused it. I use it in lieu of an iPod or the radio. I activate its kickass navigation system (which talks to me!) whenever driving to an unknown location. I overdose on its web browser. So it did not come as a surprise when the […]
Let’s Move to China
Lenovo (yes, that Lenovo – the one that doesn’t make cell phones) has designed a cell phone to comply to China Mobile’s Open Mobile System, with Google’s Android at its core. The thing is, it looks pretty dope. Deliciously beautiful, in fact. Too bad we will never see it stateside. After my elation at such […]
iPhone Numberpad App
As much as I *heart* my LG Voyager (especially its rockin’ Navigation system), I do get tempted to by the lusciousness that is the iPhone. In particular, the Safari browser. Although LG and Verizon like to tout the Voyager’s browser as a fully functioning HTML decoder, the fact remains that it doesn’t work too well […]
Big Apple Tuesday
In case you live in a cave, I am happy to tell you that Apple made some big announcements today. (I followed the live blog at Engadget, which seemed to have some good pictures of the event. As such, the following pictures come courtesy of Mr. Topolsky at Engadget, unless otherwise noted.) The new MacBook […]
Would You Dump Books to Go Digital?
Sony announced a new Reader Digital Book last week. What sets the PRS-700 from the popular Amazon Kindle is that it has a touchscreen (for easy highlighting and annotating) and the ability to read in landscape mode. (images from the PRS-700 press release) The very next day, pictures of the Amazon Kindle 2 made […]
Acme Made Camera Bag
There are bag hags and shoe whores. I am definitely the former. J doesn’t understand why I have an entire section of the closet devoted to my numerous bags. He still doesn’t get the concept of dust bags – “Why do you need a bag for a bag?” “To keep my lovelies dust-free, silly.” “Can […]
Hello Lover!
The HTC S740 was announced today. HELLO GORGEOUS! I’m such a sucker for sleek, minimalist designs. The specs, according to BGR: 116.3 x 43.4 x 16.3 mm GSM/GPRS/EDGE: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz WCDMA/HSDPA: 900/2100 MHz (we’d guess there is a 850/1900MHz UMTS/HSDPA version in the works, supports HSDPA 3.6Mbps and HSDPA 7.2Mbps) 2.4″ QVGA screen 3.2 megapixel […]
Was the iPhone 3G Launch a Success?
I know I’ve been doing some Apple-bashing over the past couple of months, but let’s get one thing straight: I love Apple. I’m a total Machead who’s always trying to persuade her friends to switch to the Mac platform, and we only have Macs at home…three of them, in fact (my MacBook Pro, J’s black MacBook, and an iMac […]
