From Wirebot:

If you are like me, you hate Apple. Not because you are a Microsoft fan boy, but because they always seem to come out with some fancy new version of the product you already own right when you have no money to upgrade. Some might say you don’t need video calling or a high resolution display screen, and that as long as your phone can make and receive calls, everything else is optional. Those people just don’t get it. How will I ever play Plants vs. Zombies without a new upgraded high resolution iPhone? There are just some things a man can’t forgo! More »


From Htcyou: Been trying to capture close-up shots with your HTC Evo 4G? How is it working out? I reckon not too splendidly since the 8-megapixel camera on the Evo is not made for shoot at close range. However a relatively inexpensive little magnetic add-on macro lens does the trick. More »

From Htcyou: Are you looking at the Motorola Droid part two? The unit’s welcome screen says “A955,” and the phone does look different from the Droid Xtreme. However, this one blurry photo is all that exists right now. We have no way of confirming if there is a QWERTY keypad like the current Droid/Milestone. More »


Mating a slick iPod with a hideous and cheap looking dock is a tech fashion faux pas. Enter Spekal’s iCrystals, which is made for all iPod models. In addition to chic looks, the iCrystal incorporates nifty features for only $79.99. More »


Shortly after Monday morning’s WWDC iPhone 4 keynote, Apple made the Gold Master build of iOS 4 available for developers. There are now “pirated” copies of the operating system for non-developers on Usenet and Torrent. Ranging from 292Mb to 356Mb, the GM build can be installed on any iPod Touch, iPhone 3G, and 3GS, so long as you have a Mac. More »


Alienware’s M11x is the most powerful ultra-portable gaming laptop there is.

Add on some optional upgrades, and the $949 starting price balloons to $2,572.99. More »
