Dear Artie You and I got off to a great start. We had some wonderful times, sitting in the sun together, my hand gently stroking your chassis. Granted, you were a bit slow at first, but as I got to know you, I realised that you were just waiting for that special someone to come [...]

The “perils” of being a gadget reviewer
One of my favourite gadget blogs is jkOnTheRun, and in James’ latest post, he discusses one of the quandaries of being a gadget reviewer: which one(s) do I take with me today? Once I decided to bring a full-sized Tablet PC with me I had to decide between the Fujitsu P1610, the Lenovo x61 and [...]
Tour of the Gadget Cave
I get a lot of really cool stuff to review for my day job, so at any one time the Cave (my affectionate nickname for my pint-sized flat) is usually brimming with all sorts of goodies – a kind of digital fun park for the geekily-inclined. This month I’ve got some especially nifty gear that [...]
I bought the Hiptop 3
A few days ago, I wrote about a silly desire to get the Hiptop 3 (aka the T-Mobile Sidekick 3). This is despite me already owning various more sophisticated devices like the i-mate JASJAR, HTC Dash and BlackBerry 8800. Well, guess what? I went and bought it … and I don’t regret it! Read on [...]
The iPod gets Lost
If you’re a rabid Lost fan like myself, then you’ll also be freaking out over the revelations of the last episode. I for one am hoping that this is the last season of the show – I just can’t handle the suspense any more! That said, I’ll be sad to say goodbye to all the [...]
Tempted by the Hiptop 3
A couple of days ago, Telstra in Australia launched the Hiptop 3 (aka the T-Mobile Sidekick 3): a cute little teenybopper phone mainly aimed at teenage and twenty-something girls (no offense to the guys that own one!). Compared to the latest generation of smartphones, it’s way underpowered. My embarrassing admission is that I want one, [...]
Pimp your Zune
I’ll tell anyone who listens – I think the brown Zune is ugly. Looks great in photos – which is what prompted me to go with that colour – but as Alicia Silverstone once said in Clueless: “From far away it’s OK, but up close it’s a big old mess”. Thank heavens Colorware is around [...]
iTunes workaround for non-US users
I’ve always been jealous of US-based iTunes users and their ability to buy TV shows and movies – something that’s still not available in other countries. Don’t get me wrong – I download videos just as much as the next person, but being able to download an entire season of a particular TV show for [...]
No wonder they’re called CrackBerrys…
Most techno-savvy users with some semblance of a personal life know about the power of ‘turning off’: logging off IM, closing email, even ignoring phone calls and text messages when they’re not appropriate to answer. But there’s a phenomenon of BlackBerry users that simply can’t switch off. They’re the ones you see huddled off in [...]
