I finally got around to installing Steam onto my Macbook, which means I’ll be spending more time on the couch when it comes to light gaming. Not wanting to be stuck with an overheating lap and a trackpad unfriendly for gaming, I decided to pick up an N315 lapdesk and an M310 mouse.
At long last, Netflix is available for Android on the official Android Market…and with the recent removal of device checks in the app, you can now (in theory) use it on any Android device running Froyo or higher. Today, we’re going to take a brief look at how well the app functions on two devices, one officially supported and one not officially supported: my Droid 1, and Brittnie’s rooted Nook Color.
Does your Droid 1 or Droid 2 suffer from a dreaded (and all too common) loose headphone jack? Here’s a quick and easy guide to fix it without taking your phone apart.

Looks like Barnes and Noble already knew what I wanted. Today, Barnes and Noble announced a new e-ink Nook, complete with a touch-enabled e-ink screen, redesigned exterior, a more intuitive GUI, vastly extended battery life, and other general improvements. I don’t like the fact that the Kindle’s slivers have been emulated for the page-turn buttons, and I’m not entirely sold on the Samsung Galaxy-style border, but other than those minor points, this seems like a great upgrade to the original Nook. I’m going to be hanging on to my first-gen Nook, since I love it too much to get rid of it, but this new version looks like it’s a winner. Priced at $139, it won’t break the bank either. In case you prefer the stylings of the the original Nook, it has been granted a price drop to $119.
It’s looking more and more likely that Barnes and Noble’s e-reader announcement on May 24th is going to be related to the e-ink equipped Nook. I absolutely love mine, although it does admittedly have some shortcomings. Here are some things I hope to see B&N change (and some things I hope they keep the same).
If you’ve been holding your breath all this time for a white iPhone 4, you can finally breathe easy: the white iPhone 4 will officially release around the world tomorrow. For my fellow Americans, GSM (AT&T) and CDMA (Verizon) flavors will be available. Everything about the white iPhone 4 is the same as the black iPhone 4, with the exception of the color.
Anyone with an iPhone 4 planning on ditching it for a white one?
Bose products: underperformers for the price they command. Ever wonder why some people have this view of the company’s products? Here’s an in-depth and technical article which answers that very question. It’s a bit old (the last update was in 2004), but its findings still apply today. Check it out.
Arriving in the mail on my birthday (April 4th), these Beyerdynamic DT770 Pros are a big step up from my Audio Technica ATH-AD700s.
