  • The 5 best uses for the $229 Dell Zino HD

    The 5 best uses for the $229 Dell Zino HD

    Dell just went official with the Inspiron Zino HD price and spces. There have been a few unboxing and previews popping up around the blogs the last few days and I’ve fallen in love with the little computer. It’s slightly larger than the Mac Mini, but I believe infinitely more versatile. HTPC - It’s a given. [...]

  • Palm Pixi seen running webOS 1.3.1 on video

    Palm Pixi seen running webOS 1.3.1 on video

    Filed under: , ,

    We've already seen a quick Palm Pixi unboxing and hands-on video, but we're guessing most folks are looking for a bit more than that in the lead-up to launch day. Thankfully, YouTube user stayfly2407 has come through with a video that, for the first time, clearly shows the Pixi running webOS 1.3.1, which may or may not be the version the phone actually ships with -- it was only just recently seeded to developers. The video unfortunately doesn't show any new features associated with this version, however, but it does seem to be speedy enough even in spite of the Pixi's slower processor. Head on past the break to see for yourself.

    Verizon to sell the Droid to New Yorkers extra, extra early

    So you’ve lurked the blogs, watched the unboxing, and read the coverage, and you just know: you want your Droid. You already know that most Verizon Stores are opening the doors a bit early at 7 AM to get your your fix – but what if you want it even earlier? We just got word that [...]

  • Nokia N900 unboxed, and no, you can’t unbox your own (yet)

    Nokia N900 unboxed, and no, you can’t unbox your own (yet)

    Filed under: , , , , , ,

    So it seems like the new thing for manufacturers is to gather a bunch of platform champions (read: developers and bloggers) in a room, wax poetic for an hour or two about strategy, and -- here's where it gets awesome -- give out or loan hot, new devices to everyone in attendance. Google's done it, Palm's done it, and now Nokia's getting in the game by handing out pre-production N900s on extended loans at its Maemo Summit event last week, and that inevitably means that we're going to be seeing a ton of unboxings and reviews over the coming days. This particular unboxing comes to us courtesy of Slashgear, which notes that the devices are currently running non-final firmware even though the hardware is the same stuff we'll be seeing on shelves in the next few weeks. It's looking great so far -- but then again, so did the N97 in its muted black box prior to release, so we'll withhold final judgment until this one's been thoroughly vetted for awesomeness.

  • Nope, the New Yorker doesn’t like the Kindle very much

    Nope, the New Yorker doesn’t like the Kindle very much

    Usually when I read a long article, I'll say something like, “Free up 20 minutes so you can read the whole thing.” I'm not sure I'm going to say that today, having just finished an article in the New Yorker, which is usually good for a profile or two, about the Kindle. And it's not because the article is down on the Kindle—I don't own any Amazon stock, so I don't care if Kindle sinks or swims—but because it doesn't really say anything that you probably didn't already know.

  • Unboxing: T-Mobile myTouch 3G

    Unboxing: T-Mobile myTouch 3G

    Here it is, folks. The T-Mobile myTouch 3G, the second Android device to hit US shores from HTC. John already reviewed the Hero, which is more or less the same device under the hood aside from the Sense UI. The only noticeable difference I can see on the myTouch 3G is the build of Cupcake it carries, COC10. Packaging is quite nice and comes with a set of earbuds, USB to 3.5mm adapter, carrying pouch, 4GB microSD card, screen protector and a fancy charger shaped exactly like the myTouch 3G. We'll have a review in the next few days.

    Unboxing: Toshiba TG01 gets the customary unrobing

    The TG01 has arrived, folks. The swoon-worthy 1Ghz Snapdragon processor is now flying free in the UK and Japan, decoding 720p video without even breaking a sweat. As with any landmark handset release, it was only a matter of time before someone stripped this thing of its box and took pics along the way. Slashgear managed [...]

The latest version is the DX, a monstrous 9-inch version of the smaller Kindle 2 that supports direct PDF reading without conversion. Why am I [...]

  • Samsung’s OmniaHD gets high-def unboxing

    Samsung’s OmniaHD gets high-def unboxing


    If watching the N97 crawl out of its Espoo-designed packaging just isn't enough for one day, how's about this? An unlocked Samsung OmniaHD (or i8910, if we're being proper) has found its way into the ever-loving hands of one mareskino, and he was kind enough to unbox the thing on video. Better still, the quality here is second to none, and we'd bet you'll be drooling by the end of it. If you're ready to prove us right / wrong, hop on past the break and mash play.

    [Thanks, Curtis]
