You may think as I did, what’s the point in having a solar panel on a keyboard thinking that it would be a cheap gimmick rather than anything useful. Turns out I was completely wrong, being solar powered the keyboard can pretty much last forever without you having to change the batteries. Which I’d say was another step closer to a hassle free wireless life. The solar panels, located in the upper left and upper right side of the keyboard are incredibly sensitive meaning that you don’t have... Read Full Story

I remember not that long ago when webcams were grainy and stuttery and overall a very poor experience. With faster internet connections and better hardware the latest generation of cameras have improved rapidly on their much older predecessors. Take this Logitech C310 for example which records in 720p HD right onto your computer, which you can use to chat with people over instant messaging programs such as Windows Messenger, Skype and more recently Facebook. You also have the option of... Read Full Story

Keyboards come in all different shapes and sizes these days as almost everyone uses one from day to day, and everyone has different needs. I’d say this ultrathin keyboard from Logitech is designed for those who are used to typing on a notebook keyboard and trying to move onto desktop. I know I certainly find it weird going from my thin keyboard on my laptop to chunky keys on a desktop. Lots of people talk about upgrading their wired keyboards to wireless ones, I really don’t get this. Why... Read Full Story

Simple yet effective seems to be the moto that Western Digital are using as of late when designing their hard drives, they all seem to just work as advertised without any pointless frills that other manufactures seem to throw in. No coffee coaster DVD’s or wasteful partitions on the drive that are full of useless software that no one ever uses. The design of the WD Elements is beautifully simplistic, if you are looking for a fancy futuristic style I do not quite think this drive enclose is... Read Full Story

I must admit I am a fan of Logitech products, every peripheral that I own seems to be made by Logitech and that isn’t usually a conscience decision, it’s just because they make good solid products that just work as intended. This wireless mouse no different, it’s not trying to hard by adding loads of unnecessary features that get in the way of usability it’s just a portable mouse that just works. The M305 is part of Logitech’s fantasy range, in that they have a range of garishly colored and... Read Full Story

I remember taking a floppy disk to school to hand my homework in, if you’d told me back then that I’d be able to fit 1 TB of data in my back pocket I would have thought 2 things. Firstly, why on earth would I need 1 TB worth of Hard Drive space and secondly I would have thought you were crazy. Yet times have changed and consumers are consuming more digital content they are also demanding more and more space for their data on ever decreasing drive sizes. The Western Digital My Passport...

External Hard drives come in as many varieties and flavors as MP3 players. And like just like the Apple’s iPod is the king of the MP3 market, Western Digital’s My Book series is on top of the external hard drive market. What makes the 750GB My Book Essential stand out from other external hard drives are the number of features it offers and its ease of use. This puppy gives you plug and play capability, PC and Mac compatibility, excellent power efficiency, and an elegant, aesthetic look that... Read Full Story

In a shocking turn in the gigantic court case between Google and Viacom, a judge has ordered that Google hand over records of every video watched on YouTube. The information to be handed over to Viacom includes user names and IP Addresses. Viacom has ordered for the data to be handed over so they can prove that Copyrighted material is more popular than the user created video. They believe that Google is purposely leaving the Copyrighted content online as long as possible to attract users to... Read Full Story

Just browsing the internet today I found this ludicrous image on flickr of someone posting a review on the Ubuntu install disk, stating that it’s a game. You can read the review by clicking the image bellow. Now, let’s list all the things that are wrong with this review. First of all he states that Ubuntu is a game, everyone who knows anything about computing knows that Linux is an operating system and not a game. Second he is shocked that it erases all of your data, Ubuntu can easily... Read Full Story
