Motorola Moto i290: It’s a cell phone, what can I say?
The 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 … [Read more...] about Motorola Moto i290: It’s a cell phone, what can I say?

Apparently, you need this: Disney USB cables
Okay, let's take a poll. How many USB to mini-USB cables do you have? I think I have one for my camera, and a few for other devices. Not all of them are compatible, but usually the mini-USB is standard. So why not have Disney versions of these cables? Perhaps the better question is "why", and the best answer is "because we're Disney, and we want to sell some stuff". … [Read more...] about Apparently, you need this: Disney USB cables
The Prisoner on AMC
Clearly, there isn't enough original science fiction to make as not only was V remade, but now The Prisoner. If you have never seen the original version of The Prisoner, then I highly recommend that you watch it. The original show was part of this weird British sci-fi spirit that was popular in the sixties. If you watch shows like The Avengers, then you know what I mean. … [Read more...] about The Prisoner on AMC

Etch a Sketch Freestyle loses the knobs
For 40 years, Ohio Art has been marketing a well-known product known as Etch A Sketch. This is one toy that has withstood the test of time, even though most computers have a Paint program that is more advanced and far easier to use. After all, having two knobs was just a real pain!

Aquapod Bottle Launcher
This product is probably best used in the summer, but I will have to admit that I have never really seen anything like it before.
