Tech News for the Day, Thursday, November 19, 2009

Here is an interesting item: the Lenovo ThinkPad X100e. It is a nice netbook/laptop combo, maybe. It looks good.

Ever wanted a skateboard with an electric motor? Xero has the Neo e-board. Yes, it’s like the Neo from The Matrix. As Keanu Reeves would say…”whoa”.

Did you ever want your iPhone to blow a small gust of air. Yeah, me neither, this iPhone app really blows.

Speaking of iPhone apps, you can get some Konami games for just $0.99 until Saturday. Click here for a complete list.

The Flip cameras are going to see an upgrade in the near future with a slide out screen and WiFi.

A company called Newman is comping out with a Portable Media Player (PMP) called the A36HD.

I’ve reported on the enTourage eDGe ebook reader, and it would appear that it is getting its own book store.

Man, it seems like everyone has an app store these days. Now it is for the Livescribe digital pen.

Scosche reviveLITE is both night light and iPod Charger

1676.13121.600x400.IPHCBKweb1I suppose that it’s nice to have a night light, and if you are going to have one, you might as well have one that can charge your iPod.

The Scosche reviveLITE is a little box that can plug into the wall and charge the iPod, but it also has a light on it, complete with on and off switch. Yes, I’m sure that will come in handy for all sorts of things. You can read my full review of it here.

AViiQ’s new laptop stand

Aviiq use itYou may have never heard of AViiQ before, and neither had I until they send me their laptop stand. I’ve seen some laptop stands in the past, but this one has an unusual design.

Not only is it made of metal, but it is designed to fold up in a compact bar. It makes it easier to travel with your laptop, as it doesn’t take up much space at all.

Motorola Moto i290: It’s a cell phone, what can I say?

i290_3-4left_wThe Motorola Moto i290 is one phone that is pretty much a cell phone. I suppose that I could say more about it, and believe me, I would if it anything unique about it.

Truth be told it really doesn’t. Seriously. It’s not that I hated this phone, because why should I bring down a phone that works well? However, the Moto is in a market that is over-saturated, and there are way too many phones from other companies that can do everything the Moto can do, and more.

Please don’t take this as a bad review from me. It’s just that you need to be told what you’re getting into. This might be the phone you’re looking for if you want something simple, and you can read my full review here.
