A crappy day brought to you by the adjective awful

I was awakened by the phone ringing. I reached over to grab the headset which was making a god awful noise combined with a awful  blipping  red light. When I finally scrabbled my way to the other side of the bed and reached up to get the handset I somehow managed to bring the glass half [...]

iPad review: the computer you should feel guilty about owning

I have pined over it for all this time, but now I have had enough time to realise that I don’t actually want one. At least not the first generation one… I think many people, myself included, have been wondering where the hell this device fits into your life. How will it fit? Will it [...]

Spring forward, Fall back. One hour to iPad and counting down to daylight saving

Here I sit watching the best of Tropfest 2010 wrestling heavy eyeballs trying to get to the last wee hours of daylight saving before the clock gets cranked back to normal, when seriously all I am actually doing is waiting and watching, online of course, what happens at the flagship 5th Avenue Apple ‘Cube’ store [...]

Apple's iPad – weighing up the pros and cons

I have been reading about it, dreaming of it, pondering purchasing, interpretting Jobs’ reality distortion field and generally weighing up the pros and cons about the illusive iPad. And I have decided what you will most likely do with it is sit on the couch and surf the net between ads. That’s about it. Is [...]

Google Wave, Google Buzz… Index this *flips bird*

Have you heard about the latest buzz word, yeah Google Buzz is the buzz and I have no idea why I need, let alone want it. I signed up for a Gmail so I could enter competitions, sign up for pointless crap and generally give it to anyone I never wanted to find me so [...]

May I have some headphones that don't suck please?

I have spent my fair share of money on headphones. In face it has occurred to me recently that headphones, in my case are like shoes and jackets. You can never have too many different kinds. What also occurred to me recently that I have mistakenly been tricking myself into headphone complacency. Not only do [...]

Another one bites the dust

It was just one of those days yesterday. First Farrah, then Michael and then the stupid twisted rumors that Jeff Goldblum had also suffered a fatal climbing accident while on set in NZ but of course that was just a hoax. While I was saddened about Farrah Fawcett I was also moved by her plight [...]

The early adopter never learns

There is no way to describe my hell right now as much as just plain outright disappointing. My love for Apple waning, my hatred for Symbian growing, my faith in OS similarly dying a slow death and my hatred for smartphones that don’t cope with any of the simplest tasks growing exponentially. Match this with [...]
