Despite the fairly humorous company name that has spawned countless jokes to do with fingering the device the latest offering from RIM in 2008 has been the Blackberry 9000, otherwise known as the Blackberry Bold.

The Blackberry Bold name was coined after people testing the device were surprised at how bold the colours were from the screen, spawning the name.  None of the testers have yet claimed any Intellectualy property infringement over the source of the name yet but I will laugh when the inevitable court case comes about.

But back on Track!
The Blackberry 9000 Bold is infact a stunning device, its… Continue Reading»

Despite my dislike of the Apple iPod when it was first released the iPod did have a fantastic interface and a sleek design. After Apple realised where the market was heading and moved into DRM free technology (The main reason I disliked the iPod) the iPod even began to appeal to me. Then the iPhone was released, another fantastic device.

Most devices plugged as iPod or iPhone killers tend to fail miserably, their interfaces are never as smooth or effective as they try to clone Apples design, they seem to… Continue Reading»

The Nokia N96 was first revealed to us at the 2008 Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.  Ever since I saw this phone i have to admit I wanted it, with its sleek looks, massive array of gadgets built in and its tech prowess that stands it head and shoulders above the competition.

Unfortunately Nokia have made the exact same mistake that they made with the N95.  They have built a phone and then priced it ridiculously.  For the same price as this ($802 Dollars or around 550 Euros, £400) you could get… Continue Reading»

9X are one of the worlds top leaders in monitor design solutions, this was all but apparent as I stared up at this gigantic, and aparently ergonomic Beast that sat in their lobby.

From this picture you cannot actually grasp the sheer size of this technological gargantuan godsend.  I did not dare ask how much they charged for a 30 screen combined visual unit, and instead walked into the back of the store to see some of their other products (Whch can be viewed here).

After nearly half an hour… Continue Reading»

The Neo Cube is not a single cube, but rather a cube made out of 216 powerful spherical magnets.  It is the design of these magnets that make this gadget so incredibly flexible, as shown in the video.  While this is not the kind of electronic gadget i normally cover I do think it ccarries that inherent geekyness that I love so much.  As soon as I saw this in motion I knew I had to have one.  So far it has taken up hours of my life, god only knows how it became addictive.  The god news is that… Continue Reading»
