A while back the good folks over at HTC in Taiwan asked me to a look at the HTC Desire. Above is my two part review of the device. (Click on the annotation in the end to continue to part II) If you’re wondering how the video ended up on HTC’s own YouTube channel, long

Diddybeats, under the “By Dr. Dre” brand offer superior sound with stellar treble and bass quality in the form factor of regular headphones, like the ones supplied by Apple with their iPhone devices. In the fine words of the company, “Diddybeats embody the celebration of the finest in music, luxury and pop music. In other

Getting around on the Internet while on your cell phone is handy, but if you have multiple things to do it can be a massive pain in the behind.  With the number of laptops, netbooks and tablets out there these days it is always the better way to navigate the Internet as opposed to a

Our own Jon Rettinger runs you through a review of Verizon’s new Droid X, hitting the pros and cons of this new monster sized phone.  This thing is just a monster physically, but how does it hold up as an actual phone?  Is Android running okay with the dreaded Moto Blur in the mix?  Find

Sure the iPhone 4 has been out for some time now, but sometimes reviews have to gestate as opposed to being rushed out.  Wouldn’t you rather know how it’s going to fit into your daily life from some real world use instead of, “We got it out of the box …”  Well, if that’s what

Rarely do I buy a game on release day, and even more rarely do I finish it in short order, but my love of the original Transformers line is such that I felt compelled to jump on Transformers – War For Cybertron immediately. Set several millenniums before the original 1980′s cartoon, Transformers – War For Cybertron tells

With Android phone models coming out at an ever increasing rate as of late, it almost feels impossible to keep up with them all.  The latest two models, the Verizon Droid Incredible and the Sptint HTC EVO 4G, both up the ante considerably going forward on what we can expect from Android-based phones, but if

A lot of talk has been made about the success of the Wired iPad app (iTunes link), and how it might be a signal of things to come for the publishing industry as well as its saving grace. I really hope it isn’t. After hearing so many good things about the Wired iPad edition, I

It seems like Netflix has been cramming its streaming video software into every device possible as of late.  (I’m waiting to hear about a refrigerator with built-in Netflix streaming)  One of the easiest ways for some time has been via the Roku box, but even that had its drawbacks. While the Roku is insanely easy to

Have you ever wanted to find, invite and confirm dance dates?  Do you want a place to create a full, extensive dance itinerary and plan couples?  Do you just wish you could see all the pictures everyone took of you in one, easy to navigate place? MySchoolDance allows high school students to interact, communicate and

These headphones are clearly for the audiophiles among you. They compete directly with Bose’s noise cancellation over-the-ear offering, providing a strong level of noise cancellation, plus fantastic audio fidelity thanks to larger audio drivers and some fancy-shmancy digital sound processing. The MSRP is $349, but you can get them at Amazon for a slightly more

We love when the community reviews everything we don’t, especially when we couldn’t agree more with their verdict.  Angry Birds is an app available for the iPhone and iPod Touch with an ‘HD’ version for all you high rolling iPad owners.  While the goal of the game is simple, it’s one of those apps that’s

File sizes are steadily getting bigger, and e-mailing them to someone is not always the most optimal way, or even possible at times.  So, what do you do?  Well, short of getting a Web hosting account, you can use a a service such as TransferBigFiles.com to get the job done. While services such as YouSendIt

Kick-Ass is the latest in a long line of comic book adaptations to hit the theaters as of late, but it is certainly not your standard fare of people with unusual powers slapping on some fetish-inspired outfits and fighting crime.  Kick-Ass is definitely more from the school of works like Watchmen which instead poses the

The amount of media content building up in our lives is getting amazing:  Music, pictures, videos, we are simply swimming in media.  Having all of that content on our computers is nice, but sometimes we’d like to get it on our TVs so everyone in the home could enjoy it, and while there are solutions

There are way too many mobile phones for us to cover ourselves, especially when it comes to those that aren’t on the front lines of the smartphone war.  Not everyone needs a full featured smartphone draining their wallets.  TechnoBuffalo user Don Tonberry dared to try out a messaging phone from Samsung called the Flight with

Offering high fidelity sound and a best in class online interface the Sonos ZonePlayer S5 offers arguably the best in class wireless music experience.  Its compact size should not be underestimated, this diminutive speaker system packs quite  punch, and fills up a room with high quality sound.  All this niceness does not come cheap however,

There are certainly more videogames in the world than we can cover ourselves, so it’s great when you, the community can shed some light on games we don’t feature ourselves.  Today’s User Blog Feature does just that and comes from Tom Rowe on his blog deathrowe4cutie.  If you’re a proud owner of a PS3, be sure

If, like me, you spend many an hour in front of one sort of screen or another then you’ll no doubt want to be as comfortable as possible while you’re there. Thankfully there are numerous and varied solutions on offer to match most budgets. Let’s look at a few that have caught my eye. As

If you find you don’t have the time to commit to epic gaming challenges like Modern Warfare 2 or Bayonetta but do have the odd ten minutes to spare then online flash games could be your savior. Here are my top five.

Consumer Ultra Low Voltage (CULV) laptops are becoming almost as ubiquitous as standard Core 2 Duo machines.   These thin and light offer more power than a netbook, but a bit less than a standard laptop and are often the perfect compromise.  The Inspiron 14Z is Dell’s foray into this category, and overall, they are

We’ve had the Nexus One kicking around since launch day, and during that time I’ve been using it regularly, getting to know both the phone and Android a bit better.  Overall, I am extremly happy the the Nexus One, and can wholeheartedly recommend it to the smartphone loving community.  It is the perfect blend of

Do you ever walk around during the day wishing people everywhere could know you just used your credit card to buy a Venti Latte at Starbucks?  Wished you could impress people with that copy of the collected works of Kafka you just bought on Amazon?  Well, now you can do all that thanks to a

As far as technology goes, there are some who feel that so much more should have been achieved by now. And it’s not those grumpy old men who are voicing discontent, it’s the younger generation who are apparently disappointed most.

Musicians are a demanding bunch. In the same breath they voice preferences for both vintage and new technology. I take a look at some of the latter to have caught my eye over the last year.
