    Video: HTC EVO 4G vs Razors, Pennys, and Screws

    Posted on June 11, 2010 | No Comments
    So, for one reason or another, you've gotta send your HTC EVO 4G in to Sprint for an exchange. What do you do? A) Wrap the EVO in the finest cloth you can find, ushering it gently into its shipping crate, or B) Attack its screen with razor blades, pennies, and screws and film the whole thing for the sake of science/entertainment. You can probably guess where this is going. (Hint: We probably wouldn't write a post about it if you went with option A.)

  • HTC EVO 4G sold out pretty much everywhere

    HTC EVO 4G sold out pretty much everywhere

    Posted on June 8, 2010 | No Comments
    It's being widely reported that the HTC EVO 4G is sold out all over the US -- at brick and mortars and online. And while we can't 100 percent certain that Sprint doesn't have a few hidden away in some of the less traversed pockets of this great land, the fact that they're selling out shouldn't come as a huge shocker. The phone overtook the Palm Pre to become Sprint's best-selling launch day ever, though we don't have an actual number of units moved. Be sure to let us know in comments if your local store has any left -- we'll be sure to stampede over there.

    BlueAnt outs the rugged T1 Bluetooth headset

    Posted on March 22, 2010 | No Comments
    Bluetooth headsets generally take a good amount of abuse. They are after all thrown in pockets with keys, tossed in bags , thrown on desks, and suffer countless other forms of stress over their lifetime. Thankfully most are priced as throwaway items. However, the just-announced BlueAnt T1 isn't a normal headset. This little guy seems like one tough bastard.

    Review: Scottevest Evolution Travel Jacket

    Posted on March 10, 2010 | No Comments
    Short version: Scott Jordan understands geeks. Or at least, he understands what geeks want in clothing. The Evolution Travel Jacket takes the same basic concept as the other Scottevest products, and refines it. The Evolution is a jacket with more pockets then most people will ever need, and could quite easily replace a backpack or messenger bag when traveling.

    Alright, lets pat the pockets and run through the mental checklist one last time before security: Passport? Check, front pocket. Headphones? Definitely in your backpack. Boarding pass? Uh oh. Where’d that boarding pass go? Oh, that’s right! It’s on your phone – because you, like a rapidly increasing number of other people, opted to have it [...]

    Posted on January 26, 2010 | No Comments
    Are we still expected, in the year 2010, to pay $20 plus $8 shipping for a Snuggie? And another $8 shipping for a second bonus Snuggie? NO! Show the fat cats at the Snuggie conglomerate that you’re onto their little ruse. Take a big piece of fabric – any fabric you want! -- cut some arm holes, and sew some arms onto the arm holes.

    Eager to get a hold on your very own Dell-branded Android smartphone? This guy here took matters into his own hands with nothing more than his modding skill, his imagination, and a Dell Inspiron Mini. Of course, this thing won't exactly fit in most pockets, but as a curiosity (and a conversation starter) it performs admirably. Have you ever seen a 10.1-inch novelty handset in action? Now's your chance -- peep the video for yourself after the break.

    Posted on December 30, 2009 | No Comments
    E-readers don't always have to be stark slate's of modern art and the Owen E1 E-Book is anything but. You just know by looking at it that it's comfy to use and should fit into more pockets thanks to its rounded edges and smallish 5-inch screen. But it doesn't matter, you probably won't be able to buy it anytime soon.
