Dodgeball – never was a word uttered by a middle school coach that thrilled some and terrified others at the same time. This is the game coaches use to weed out the weak as they sat around laughing while the kids that throw really hard aim for the testicles of the fat slow kid.

I thought once adulthood came around dodgeball was something you didn’t play again, but Samsung has proven that wrong by holding a massive game and setting a Guinness World Record to celebrate the Verizon launch of the Reality mobile phone. The record breaking game had 712 players and 600 balls.

There really isn’t any way you could pry my DirecTV DVR from my hands, short of offering me a DirecTV DVR with more storage space and WiFi. I am not even remotely interested in TiVo and its associated monthly fees and hardware costs.

The software is called the HP MediaSmart Expander for TiVo and lets you do some nifty things like transfer your shows to and from the DVR to the server.

If there’s one thing I hate, it’s having my hands full carrying grocery bags after shopping. Maybe too much video-gaming has given me girlly arms, but I hate carrying bags. You can’t answer your phone either if your hands are full.

The Yoke can help in this situation. It’s a shoulder strap that can hold your groceries for you at waist level. Of course then you just have your milk and ice cream hitting you in the leg constantly, but I guess that’s the price you pay for freeing up your arms.

Symbian was able to move ahead more quickly, most likely to try and keep an edge on the newer open-source Android mobile operating system from Google.
