10 Dollar 52″ LCD at Best Buy

August 12, 2009 · Posted in Gadgets · Comments 

I had to screenshot this, because I’m sure Best Buy will fix it soon.  They have a 52″ Samsung for a mere $9.99!

10 Dollar 52 inch Samsung LCDSome of the reviews are rather amusing:

“overall sweet deal, it only costed me 9.99 per tv, that’s pretty dope, so I just bought 10 of em, only bad thing is that recycling fees are lame.”

What’s great about it: Costs only $9.99 apparently (no lie.. thats what it says at the time of this writing)

What’s not so great: $60.00 shipping ftl.

“When I first clicked the link going to this tv, I was doubtful that such a great deal existed. However, to my surprise, it was real. I proceeded to order 50 of these !

Great picture quality, great sound…

Then again, I’d be happy with an old CRT at that price! :D

Buy. It. Now.”

T-Mobile to Bring first Android Phone to Market

September 23, 2008 · Posted in Gadgets · Comments 

It’s now official. T-Mobile will be the first U.S. mobile phone carrier to bring an Android based mobile phone to market.  Google first announced the Open Handset Alliance almost a year ago, and many Google fans have been waiting with anticipation for the first mobile phone to be available for purchase.  Hopefully other carriers will soon follow suit (namely Sprint, my carrier).  It is certainly exciting to see an open source platform hit the mobile phone scene.  As much as I love to geek around with operating systems, it would be awesome to be able to have more control over the functionality of my cell phone.  One of these days I’ll have to do download the Android SDK and see what sort of apps/utilities I can throw together.

AT&T Linking iPhone to U-verse

September 16, 2008 · Posted in Gadgets · Comments 

The Mac News Network is reporting that AT&T is working on linking the iPhone to U-verse.  I think a really cool feature is the ability to use the iPhone as a remote control for the cable box.  Another feature is the ability to control DVR functionality via the phone’s Internet connection, which can be really useful if you forget to set a program to record while you’re at home.

21st Century Toasters

About two months ago, Engadget ran a story about a BattleStar Galactica branded toaster that burns a Cylon onto the toast.  Yesterday CrunchGear ran another story about a toaster that you connect to your computer that will burn anything you want onto the toast.  I suppose it was only a matter of time before toasters made it to the 21st century.
