Wacom Intuos4 Review: Awesome Controls, Same Professional Quality
Wacom took four long years before updating their professional-grade Intuos graphics tablet and it’s more than a welcome change. The newly-unveiled Intuos4 comes in four different models, each one with a different size: small (A6), medium (A5), large (A4) and extra large (A3). Stylus is slightly shorter than the one from the Intuos3, but overall [...]
Jog Game Controller For The Wii Review
There’s an increasing number of exercise peripherals being released for the Wii and the Jog is easily one of my favorites. I’ve taken note of this device since it was first announced, mostly because it wasn’t tied to a specific exercise game, the way most of the other fitness-geared peripherals for the console are. Instead, [...]
Sansa SlotRadio: Good Player, Great Price
Sansa’s SlotRadio is one of the current competitors in the miniature music player field. I’m not sure where the aesthetics of these types of players started but I’ve been seeing more and more of them now.

Smart Q5 Review: Good PMP, Still Not A MID
The Smart Q5 is really a PMP, albeit an ARM-based one. Instead of leaving it at media playback, though, they outfitted it with a Linux OS (Ubuntu), browser support, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi capability. As such, the device excited people with the potential of being a low-end MID that can significantly undercut Atom-based devices. Hardware itself [...]

Samsung P3 Is A Solid Touchscreen Media Player But Nothing More
With the Samsung P3, the company has delivered one of the most solid portable media players available. As with all higher-end PMPs, though, it’s slotted in a field dominated by the flexible functionality of the iPod Touch, the esoteric styling of the Cowon iAudio S9 and the amazing sound of Sony’s S-Series Walkman. How well [...]
HDTV Review: The Sharp Aquos LC-32GP3U
I have a secret. I’ve been playing my XBox 360 on a standard TV ever since I got it almost two years ago. The reason? I can’t afford a new HD TV nor does my PC monitor have HDMI connectivity. Yep, I’ve been living it up with Saints Row 2 OG style! While I’ve been [...]
First Hi-Def LCD TV with Blu-ray Disc Player
Technology is evolving. Now, the anticipated team up of LCD TV and Blu-ray discs had materialized. Sharp was ahead of the pack in the integration, as they release their very first LCD TV with a built-in Blu-ray disc player. However, you can’t buy the set right now. You would have to wait until November 20 [...]
Car Keys for Freedom?
When you give your 16-year-old son or daughter the car keys, he or she would definitely jump for joy and kiss you on both sides of your cheek. Now if you give them a car of their own, their elation could reach the heavens. Why? It’s because for teenagers, car means freedom. Or is it? [...]

Portable e-book readers are getting better and better. Very recently, Sony announced their all-new 3rd generation e-book reader that they are calling the PRS-700. This new e-book reader comes with a stylus and a touch-screen interface. You can virtually use it like a book, where you can leaf through the virual pages of the e-book [...]
