Ratpadz XT 
techPowerUp :: Friday, January 19, 2007
Ratpadz was one the first companies to produce high quality plastic mats aimed at gamers who wanted absolute precision. The pad looks just like the original and is made from the same type of durable plastic. Can this old, relatively speaking, mat compete with the new sleek designs of the other big pad producers, read the review to find out.

CES 2007: Razer
Think Computers :: Thursday, January 18, 2007
“At this year’s CES Razer really surprised us by releasing a really unique product that may look ordinary, but is anything but that. I have really enjoyed their latest products and they have gone through a total transformation from their collapse a few years ago. Let’s check out what to expect from them in 2007!”

Cyber Snipa Spotter USB Webcam Review
Tweaknews :: Wednesday, January 17, 2007
“While not the most compact webcam available, the Cyber Snipa Spotter takes pretty nice photos and video and is a good value for anyone who frequently uses Skype, Netmeeting, or any other application that warrants using a webcam. Like other Cyber Snipa products this is not a typical looking PC peripheral but to me that’s a plus.”

Logitech VX Revolution Laptop Mouse
Modders Inc :: Wednesday, January 17, 2007
As the sale of laptops continue to rise and desktop PC users migrate, they find it hard to switch over to the touch pad that every laptop has. The touch pad is OK for those times when no room for a mouse is available, but nothing beats the usage of a mouse. Logitech knows this and has come out with the VX Revolution.

Kensington PilotBoard Wireless Desktop Set Review
Tech Gear :: Wednesday, January 17, 2007
There’s always a first for everything and this is our first ‘wireless desktop’ review. We have been kindly provided a wireless keyboard and mouse combo by Kensington. Almost all of Kensington’s products are simple in terms of design and usability, which makes them more attractive than a lot of products that seem to bloat their products with unwanted extras. Today we will be looking at the PilotBoard Wireless Desktop set, and we are hoping it lives up to the high quality and performance that Kensington already has on the market.

Sony Ericsson K790a Review 
Digital Trends :: Wednesday, January 17, 2007
“Sony has poured all of its multimedia know-how into the K790’s compact package creating a truly remarkable little phone. ”

Samsung K5JAB Review
Overclockers Online :: Wednesday, January 17, 2007
The Samsung K5 really delivers in a small package; it is very attractive, comes with excellent earphones, and the speakers are not bad because its size versus quality ratio is above average.

Dacos Technologies Rapsody 2.5″ Multimedia Player Review 
Big Bruin :: Wednesday, January 17, 2007
The Dacos Technologies Rapsody 2.5″ Multimedia Player is an excellent fit for my digital multimedia device needs, and I really do like it. It is very easy to transfer media via USB or OTG, and the size and simplicity make it extremely portable. They did a good job incorporating support for different file types, but could have made it a little more robust.

Func F10.S Large Mouse Pad 
techPowerUp! :: Wednesday, January 17, 2007
Func has always been known to produce some of the best gaming mouse mats in the world. They started off producing their infamous surface1030 which featured two surfaces: one rough and one smooth. Today we test the new version of their smooth surface namely the Func F10.S Large, which is aimed at low sensitivity gamers, and gamers who want the smoothest glide.

Trio of Razer Products
t-Break :: Monday, January 15, 2007
Most of you probably remember Razer when they revolutionized the concept of gaming mice with their Razer BoomSlang almost eight years back. It was surely the best and most innovative seller of its time. Since then Razer has come a long way into this business backed and supported strongly by their main man Robert ‘Razerguy’ Krakoff. Today Razer provides a myriad of products designed specifically for the hardcore gamer and the enthusiast looking forward for that extra edge.

Apple iPhone = Origami done right?
Design Technica :: Monday, January 15, 2007
“You remember Origami right? This was the consumer friendly name for the UMPC. When the first one of these came out from Samsung, it showed promise but was too big, the battery life was too short, it didn’t have WAN networking, and the touch screen keyboard wasn’t very good. It was also too expensive and the full OS got in the way of the “simple” concept of getting access to a few core applications that would drive the device like multimedia consumption and email. Someone listened and unfortunately for Microsoft (who came up with the idea) it was Apple. Now Microsoft isn’t the only company looking foolish right now, IBM actually came up with this idea before Microsoft did and every survey I did on the class, which was called Modular Computing at the time, indicated it would be massively successful if it was done right. And had it been done right, it likely could have done for both Microsoft and IBM what the iPod did for Apple. But Microsoft under-funded their effort and IBM didn’t even try in the first place. ”

Antec NoteBook Cooler S 
dragonsteel Mods :: Monday, January 15, 2007
” Yesterday I took a look at the CoolerMaster Notepal S, so today I thought I would keep with the ‘S’ theme and take a look at the Antec NoteBook Cooler S. The Antec NoteBook Cooler S is completely different than any other notebook coolers I have reviewed or owned, this one is truly small and very portable. It features a unique cooling system that pushed air across the bottom of your laptop, it can be used at high or low speeds and features a pass-though USB connection so you don’t lose a USB port. Let’s check it out… ”

Jetart NC3000 Cool Stand Notebook Cooler Review !
Tech ARP :: Monday, January 15, 2007
Passive coolers are generally alike – a piece of plastic that shields you or the table from heat produced by the notebook. That changes with the new Jetart NC3000 Cool Stand notebook cooler.

Not only does it provide better cooling than other passive coolers, it comes with height adjustment and a swivel feature. Some may like them, some may not. It really depends on what you intend to use it for.

Vizo Xena Notebook Cooler Review
RB Mods :: Monday, January 15, 2007
A while ago, we examined Vizo’s Ninja Notebook Cooler and had mixed opinions about its design and set of features. Vizo has returned to the notebook cooler game with a newer model, the Xena Notebook Cooler, which offers additional features including a bay for a backup hard drive. Will it be enough to propel it to the top?

review on the XTracPads Pro & Pro HS
Burnout PC :: Friday, January 12, 2007
Over the years i’ve came to the conclusion, and this is of course my opinion on the matter. That whenever you look for a replacement mousemat / pad, some things come into play. First there’s the brand issue. It’s like purchasing a car, some like Volkswagen, but Seat has the same parts as a Volkswagen but is much cheaper. Second there’s the type of surface you prefer and what size. Lastly it’s how fancy you want your mousemat to look and how much your willing to pay for it. If your looking for a high quality, high end mousemat and you have a computer system you spend a fortune on and doesn’t want a cheap looking mousemat on your desk than your looking at mousemats / pads up to 50 dollars. Both the XTracPads Pro and Pro HS glide as smooth as you would expect from a mousemat, their not the crappy cloth mats from 10 years ago. It’s probably a production error that my surface came loose on the HS but overall both mousemats are quite alright.”

JetArt Xcool NP7000 Note Book Cooler
Dragonsteel Mods :: Friday, January 12, 2007
” If you own a laptop then you know it really isn’t made to be on your lap, they just get too darn hot. There are many companies today that make coolers for those hot laptops, but today for review I have found one that performs exceptionally well, it is the JetArt Xcool NP7000 Note Book Cooler, so let’s just jump right into this review and learn more about it…”

Apple iPhone: How does it stack up to the competition?”
Project PDA :: Friday, January 12, 2007
“The rumors and speculation are over and it’s now official – Apple announced yesterday that it will launch the iPhone towards the end of 2007. And not only has Apple managed to create a device that is sexy (in true Apple fashion) but it has also introduced a number of features that really outdo the competition. This new device seems to have just about everything all the other phone manufactures haven’t been able to get quite right – namely a web browser, email, calendar, SMS, an integrated address book, video player, support for Google maps, Yahoo email, and of course, an MP3 Player. How does it stack up to the competing devices? Read on to find out…”

Motorola i880 Review
Digital Trends :: Wednesday, January 10, 2007
“Judged by its own merits, the sturdy i800 offers an attractive package of functions and performance. But compared to Sprint’s PowerVision/ReadyLink phones, such as the similarly spec’d Sanyo M1, the i880 is a piker. Unlike the M1 (which also offers a 2 MP camera, MP3 player and ReadyLink walkie-talkie capabilities), the i880 is not an EV-DO phone and lacks HTML web browsing and access to Sprint’s PowerVision multimedia options. Yet, the i880 is $150 more than the Sanyo M1: $499.99 (M1) vs. $349.99 (i880) or you can get the i880 for $299.99 with contract and rebates (the M1 is $199.99 with contract and rebates). While more fun than its predecessors, the i880 is still more appropriate for the more well-heeled business user.”

Apple announces the iPhone
Apple :: Wednesday, January 10, 2007
On the nitty-gritty side of things, the iPhone sports a 3.5″ 320×480 display, 4GB or 8GB of storage capacity, Wi-Fi, EDGE, and Bluetooth 2.0 connectivity, and a 2.0 megapixel camera. The integrated battery allows for up to 16 hours of audio playback and five hours of phone calls, video playback, or browsing. And despite all those features, the iPhone weighs in at just 135g (4.8 ounces) with a thickness of 11.6mm (0.46 inches.)

Super Slim Keyboard from Brando WorkShop 
Dragonsteel Mods :: Wednesday, January 10, 2007
Today I have a small review for you, of a very small keyboard. The Super Slim Keyboard from Brando WorkShop is essentially a full-sized keyboard shrunk down to tiny proportions. This keyboard is the perfect thing for travelers, and others that want access to a full keyboard but just don’t want to carry around a full-sized one. The Super Slim Keyboard is tiny, with dimensions of 21.7cm x 10.2cm x 1.5cm, it really is small, but yet has all the features of a full-sized keyboard, so continue on to learn a bit more about the Super Slim Keyboard from our friends at Brando WorkShop.

Samsung SGH-F300 Double-Sided Cell Phone / MP3 Player 
The Tech Lounge :: Wednesday, January 10, 2007
“I was able to play around with this phone at Samsung’s booth and I was fairly impressed. The phone, as I said, is very thin, and it feels very well built and responsive. The media buttons on the MP3 side, as well as the touch-sensitive scrolling works well and the user interface was purdy. You can expect to see the SGH-F300 sometime this quarter.”

Casio EXILIM EX-S770 7MP Silver Digital Camera
Bona Fide Reviews :: Wednesday, January 10, 2007
Casio continues its best selling Exilim line of slim digital cameras by releasing the EX-S770. Similar to its predecessor, the S500 and S600, this new member is sleek, stylish, and easy to use. As the name may suggest, resolution has been increased to 7.2mp. The extra “70” designation also indicates that this is more than just another megapixel increase over the S600, and that a handful of other features have also been updated.

SteelSeries Qck+
Nippy Chips :: Wednesday, January 10, 2007
“SteelSeries is a provider of many articles of hardcore gaming. Not only are they one of the top sites to go to for a great mousing surface, but they also specialize in audio, and security. Today they have sent along a QcK+ mousing surface. It’s not only a hearty 17.7 x 15.7 inches, but grips very well to surfaces with its non-slip backing.”
