Tech News for the Day, Friday, October 16, 2009

Let’s start off with something simple: the DXG-125V. Very nice camera for rugged conditions.

I got a chance to review the 2XL headphones collection. Check out their four models here.

I also got to check out the Hyper Blast game from Wild Planet. It rocks pretty good.

There’s a new iPhone app for Canon printers that let’s you print wirelessly from certain PIXMA printers.

Do you need to charge your iPod, but don’t want to deal with all the iTunes hoopla? You should get down with the Sync Blocker.

Samsung recently unveiled a new name for a phone that used to be called the Galaxy Lite. Now it is the Spica.

For some odd reason, the Pentax K_x got a strange paint job.

Acer looks like it is claiming to give the world the first 3D laptop.

The Saga of the Sidekick

sidekickOh man, I’m sure you’ve heard about this one. Apparently, there was some sort server problem over there at T-Mobile, and the end result was that many Sidekick users lost their data.

Man, doesn’t that just stink? The good news is that T-Mobile is promising to work “around the clock” to restore this information. Apparently, T-Mobile believes that the data loss “affected a minority of Sidekick users”.

Okay, this would be a good time for T-Mobile to insert their slogan: “Get More”. You should also insert that weird ringtone that ends their commericals.
