Features like multimedia keys, internet function keys and the optical trackball built-in all make this one really cool keyboard, so read on to check it out…. ”

Virtual Hideout :: Tuesday, December 19, 2006

Ratpadz XT Premium Gaming Mousepad Review 
Tweaknews :: Tuesday, December 19, 2006
“Truthfully, I never knew gaming could be this effortless. I know I know, it is just a mousepad, but you really have to try one of these out. There are several companies bragging and touting their mousepads to be the best out there and when they turned up to the Tweaknews labs they were judged to be overpriced, over-hyped and under performing pieces of marketed junk……..but this doesn’t apply to the Ratpadz XT. It is what it is and that is an exceptional mousepad. And it isn’t that badly priced to boot.”

Titan TTC-G2T Aluminum Notebook Cooler Review
OCIA :: Tuesday, December 19, 2006
“Laptop coolers of various forms have been around for years, from special insulating pads to stands to things with fins and fans, but for every different type you see there are a myriad of mixed reviews over whether they’re actually very effective or not.

Palm One Tungsten T5 Review
Project PDA :: Monday, December 18, 2006
“The T5 has been able to handle almost everything I’ve thrown at it. I have found it incredibly useful, very easily finding its way into my routine throughout the day. For example, I have an approximately 20 minute drive to the office and in the morning I don’t always have the time to read as much as I’d like before I have to head for school. So, I simply downloaded some MP3 lectures that I’d been wanting to hear, transferred them to the T5 using the Drive Mode, and then listen to them via the built-in speaker. The MP3 playback is wonderful, especially considering the fact that if you are listening to an MP3 and the times comes for your Palm to go into “hibernate” it will continue to play the MP3 with no interruptions. If you have a playlist queued up, it will play the playlist clear through, with the screen blanked out so that you don’t waste your battery life.”

MyFlash Fingerprint Disk FP1 Review
Overclockers Club :: Friday, December 15, 2006
“This brings me to the MyFlash Fingerprint Disk, produced by A-Data Technology. This is a standard size USB 2.0 flash drive, but includes the security of a fingerprint swipe system. I must say, when I first saw this little item, I was skeptical about its reliability. I mean, the government has been talking for years about using biometrics for security at places such as airports, but has been unable to implement a system that works and is cost efficient. But I, as a consumer, can purchase, for a reasonable price, a reliable, secure, fingerprint recognition system? I was pondering the government and how it always seems to be years behind, and then it happened. “Fingerprint Device Not Registered”… I will explain shortly.”

Project PDA: Holiday 2006 Smartphone Buyer’s Guide
Project PDA :: Thursday, December 14, 2006
“The first and arguably the most important decision that needs to be made before buying a new mobile phone is deciding which service provider to use. With all of the complex voice, data, and feature plans available, there isn’t a magic formula or overly simplistic piece of advice to give. We recommend relying on the service providers’ technology and coverage that will best meet your needs. Remember to take into consideration that you may work in an area that has great coverage, but live in an area that gets horrible reception.”
