March 7, 2010 – 7:54 pm | No Comment

[Image via The Stub ] If you’ve been avidly following the Hollywood scuttlebutt this past week, you’ve probably heard of an event which is unfolding at this very moment: The 82nd Annual Academy Awards. We know how badly you guys want to be able to talk about the Oscars whilst chatting over your place of business’ water cooler, coffee pot or rodeo clown make-up station, so we’re here to help you understand the Awards ceremony in terms you’ll find easily understandable: The Oscars are the Spike TV Video Game Awards, but for movies. The similarities between the two events really are pretty striking — the awkward presentation by the cast of the Jersey Shore and Mike Tyson will surely be paralleled by the Oscars’ pairing of Young Starlet A and Lecherous Old Comedian B.

BlackBerry 9650 delayed
February 21, 2010 – 11:35 pm | No Comment
BlackBerry 9650 delayed It seems that folks who are with Verizon and are looking forward to the BlackBerry 9650 will be disappointed, since an insider from RIM (Research In Motion) mentioned that Verizon will only roll out the 9650 when the official OS 5.0 arrives for the Tour 9630. As it stands, Sprint's bunch of 9650’s are experiencing Wi-Fi issues, and Sprint are hard at work rectifying that. Patience is always a good thing after all.

Snapback automatically reconnects calls when your BlackBerry takes a dive It’s an unavoidable truth of carrying a cell phone in a world full of massive skyscrapers and thick-walled tunnels: Dropped calls happen. It always seem to happen at the worst of times, too. You’re driving along with your Bluetooth headset clamped to your head, when bam! Call is gone. You don’t want to look away from the road to check if the signal has returned, right? Because next thing you know, your front end would be half way through a highway divider. A company called Movius is ...

December 27, 2009 – 10:23 am | No Comment
Kindle most gifted item in Amazon’s history, e-books outsell physical tomes on Christmas Day We're still not about say the e-book reader industry has branched out beyond the infancy stage, but one of its flagship products certainly has reason to celebrate. Amazon has announced it's hit some pretty big milestones with the Kindle.

iPhone Now The Most Popular Phone In The US
December 25, 2009 – 10:32 am | No Comment
iPhone Now The Most Popular Phone In The US Ranking cell phone companies is a tough thing to do. Some of these companies have a bunch of popular handsets, whilst others have just one or two yet manage to sell as many or more. Rank the companies by cumulative sales across all of their lines and the results will swing one way; rank them model-by-model, and they might look completely different. Such is the case with the iPhone, according to the latest numbers from The Nielsen Company. While RIM’s ...

Blackberry 8130 Pearl Phone Review–Usability Problems Plague This One Though I really do approve of the Blackberry line, which tends toward the business heavy phone with a real no-nonsense sort of capability, sometimes their usability gets in the way.  Or rather, the lack thereof.

Seesmic for BlackBerry gets updated, pushed to the App World While Seesmic has been available for BlackBerry handsets since right around the end of November, it has thus far required you to manually download the application by visiting http://m.seesmic.com/.

Seesmic is celebrating their newfound availability with an update to the client, adding a handful of ...
