Posted in Earbuds by Conner Flynn on April 18th, 2011

These earphones also have high efficiency drivers (105 dB/mW) and an iPhone compatible microphone so you can answer calls on the fly while listening to your music. The Moonrock Black earbuds come with a stylish pocket-size carrying case with cable management that also looks like a cute happy face.

Posted in Headphones by Conner Flynn on February 1st, 2011

The X2 Hybrid Headphones look common enough, but look closer. They double as speakers. It allows you to switch back and forth between headphones or external speakers. If your ears get tired, just switch them. The outside of the earcups functions as the external speaker and the interior earcups function as a normal pair of headphones. Pretty neat design.

The drivers are 40mm and as speakers they output 0.5 watts. When used as a speaker they need to be charged and will operate for 4 hours on a 1 hour charge. They also come with a 3.5mm stereo gold plated plug and a 6.3mm stereo plug.

Asus Eee 1002HA netbook review

Posted in Review by Shane McGlaun on March 20th, 2009

eee1002ha-coverAnyone who owns a TV, knows how to read, or listens to the radio knows that the global economy sucks today and will continue to be poor for most of 2009 and possibly into 2010 depending on whom you listen to. That means that all sorts of retailers are having a hard time with many of the largest electronics and computer firms announcing major losses and layoffs.

Despite the poor economy one sector of the computer market is continuing to grow impressively is the netbook market. The reason for the continued growth of the netbook market is simple — the machines are cheap. The average netbook sells for under $400 and offers portability and battery life that makes working on the road less of a chore for many users.

Maybe you’re just stuck in a gift-giving rut, and have been buying Dad the same golf-themed trinkets every year since you were eight.

For those who are difficult to shop for, the Holiday Season is a whirlwind of fancy ink pens, back massagers, gift cards, and gag gifts. Why not break that routine (slightly) and give them not just a pen, but a USB flash drive as well?

The Vidabox Rack24 though can pack it in, including over 3,350 DVDs or a reported 880 Blu-ray movies. 24 hard drive bays provide the space necessary for this massive amount of storage and the Rack24 can come preloaded and pre-configured with Microsoft’s Vista Home Premium software when configured as a hybrid server/AV stream provider.

The B-membrane computer concept

Posted in Concepts by Conner Flynn on June 23rd, 2008

The B-membrane computer concept
If you figure PCs should look like a bizarre abstract UFO, or maybe resemble a Sit and Spin type toy with a CD tray sticking out, you are not alone. Designer Won-Seok Lee apparently agrees.

The B-membrane computer concept does away with monitors entirely, instead opting for a built-in projector that will beam the display onto any surface. The membrane keyboard shows up whenever it’s needed as well as a built-in optical drive. It will probably be some time before we see something like this become a reality. It’s just not that easy to make a PC of the future look like the inside of a washing machine.
