Some of you might not be satisfied with the big three of video games these days. If you would rather play games for the NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, or GBA instead of what the Wii U, Sony Playstation, or Xbox is currently giving you, then I recommend a new product manufactured by Retro-bit and distributed by Innex. This is the Super Retro Trio, and it is a 3-in-1 home system … [Read more...] about Innex Super Retro Trio let’s you play your old-school games

There is a company known as Dotz or Cordotz, and they are in business to make cords easy to identify. I'm going to talk about some cool stuff that the company is putting out, starting with the Cord Identifier Kit ($16.99). This … [Read more...] about Dotz keeps your cords in order
Paytouch works by hand, without the wallet
This is Paytouch, and it is a way to use one's credit card or debit card by just putting your fingers on it, like so! Okay, I suppose that we could talk about the advantages. For example, you wouldn't have to worry about getting your wallet stolen. Hopefully, this kind of system would be hard to fake. Now we will talk about the disadvantages. Let's talk about how … [Read more...] about Paytouch works by hand, without the wallet
The Spark Digital from Blue Microphones
I can honestly say that I have been a big fan of Blue Microphones for many years now. The last thing I reviewed from them was Tiki USB microphone, and I was pleased to review another USB microphone, the Spark Digital. The Spark Digital reminds me of another Blue Microphones product known as the Yeti. The Spark Digital is lollipop in shape, and the Yeti looks like a … [Read more...] about The Spark Digital from Blue Microphones
RHP Mirrorcase comes to the iPad
Some of you might remember when I reviewed the MirrorCase for the iPhone 4, and how it is a case designed to make picture-taking much, much easier. You see, taking a picture on an iPhone or an iPad involves holding the product up, which can get really tiring over time. The Mirrorcase makes it so you can lay the tablet or smartphone down and take pictures and video. … [Read more...] about RHP Mirrorcase comes to the iPad
LumiTab comes with its own projector
I have seen smartphones that had a built-in projector, but I don't think this really caught on. I mean, you don't see latest versions of the iPhone or Galaxy S having projectors on them. Promate has created the LumiTab, which is essentially a tablet with a projector, and one that is capable of a projection of up to 100 inches. Yes, that would be pretty easy for making … [Read more...] about LumiTab comes with its own projector
Microsoft’s video of the IllumiRoom makes me want it for my Living Room
I don't know if you remember when I reported on the IllumiRoom the first time, but this was shortly after CES. I have heard that it made an appearance at the big trade show, but I didn't see it. Man, after watching this video, I wish that I would have seen it. What you are seeing on this video has not been touched up at all, and you can see that the gaming experience is … [Read more...] about Microsoft’s video of the IllumiRoom makes me want it for my Living Room
Leap Motion, and how it will change a lot of things
Does anyone think it is odd that video games like the Kinect and the Wii are almost completely motion-controlled, but your computer still uses a mouse? Why not adopt Leap Motion? If you are not familiar with Leap Motion, it is like a touchscreen without a touchscreen. It has so many uses like drawing in the air for an art program. Then there is the FPS that uses your … [Read more...] about Leap Motion, and how it will change a lot of things
Virgin Galactic SS2 makes first successful test flight
What you are seeing is Virgin Galactic's SpaceShipTwo, or SS2, which completed its first test flight today. Sir Richard Branson is certainly pleased as can be, and the SS2 took off at the Mojave Air and Space Port in California. A carrier craft known as WhiteKinightTwo towed it 47,000 feet into the atmosphere and then the rockets kicked in to go faster than the speed of … [Read more...] about Virgin Galactic SS2 makes first successful test flight
Enter Morephone, the smartphone of the future!
I think it is interesting that most of us have cellular phones so we can be reached anywhere, but somehow, I miss most of my phone calls. Part of it is my fault, as I often mute my phone during an event and then forget to unmute it later. Imagine if your cellular phone gave you a more visual cue that it was ringing. I am not talking about something on the screen that … [Read more...] about Enter Morephone, the smartphone of the future!
Speculative Fiction Friday: Speed Racer
Lately, I have been watching these videos from the Nostalgia Critic. If you aren't familiar with him, you can find him on over 300 videos on YouTube, and he really gives bad movies a roast that most of them richly deserve. I really admire Doug Walker's very animated style that reminds me of "Weird-Al" Yankovic. I have decided to sort of do the opposite this time, as I want … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Friday: Speed Racer
Kia Forte’s new ad campaign is quite disturbing
I'm just going to assume that you watched the video here for the Kia Forte 2013, and you can watch another video after the jump for the Kia Forte 2014. Both of them feature a robot girl that I find to be...incredibly creepy. I guess it is a robot. Perhaps it is some sort of cyborg. I mean, you see metal on the shoulders and in other places. I suppose the flesh is there … [Read more...] about Kia Forte’s new ad campaign is quite disturbing
Microsoft planning to unveil the next generation of Xbox on May 21st

Case in point, Microsoft, who has apparently stated that the next version of the Xbox is coming. This announcement is set for May 21st, at the company's corporate headquarters in Redmond. I don't know what the new features will be, as … [Read more...] about Microsoft planning to unveil the next generation of Xbox on May 21st
Bluetooth Breathalyzer made for the iPhone
I have seen a lot of iPhone accessories of all types, but this is the first time that I have seen a Breathalyzer. The BACtrack Mobile Breathalyzer is designed to fit on an iPhone, and a special app can track your Blood Alcohol Level. I believe that most Breathalyzers just tell you how drunk you are, but the application tells you when it is actually safe to get behind the … [Read more...] about Bluetooth Breathalyzer made for the iPhone
PLAiR wirelessly beams video content to the television
If you are like me, you are addicted to video content, but I don't really have it where I want it...on my TV. PLAiR is a micro-computer that allows the user to wirelessly transmit HD video to any HDMI-equipped display or projector. According to my Source, this is platform agnostic, which means it is good to go for Windows or Mac content. My Source also says that it … [Read more...] about PLAiR wirelessly beams video content to the television
