Trying to not live up to the name.

Trying to not live up to the name.

I have been good…for the most. I really have been. But don’t know if I’m strong enough to resist this. In December, I succumbed and got the HTC One X+. It was justified. My old HTC desire was merely serving as a hot spot device. Just didn’t cut it. Then my sister got the HTC One X and I felt a kindling of the addiction. Luckily for me, not so much for her, the One X+ was an... »

BlackBerry Z10 – Photos and First Impressions

BlackBerry Z10 – Photos and First Impressions

The BlackBerry Z10 is not a smart phone. Its really not. Its an INTELLIGENT phone. And I absolutely love it. I am not good with all the techie terms….uhn uhn. But I know when I’m blown away by the sexiest piece of technology masquerading as a phone. There’s always the excitement that comes with getting a new gadget, as expected. I almost couldn’t wait for this to arrive. I ... »

ITUWORLD 2012 in PICTURES

Back in October, from the 14th to the 18th, ITU Telecom World 2012 held in Dubai. Its the first time its moved from its usual ground of Geneva. Participants were in for a sweltering treat (yup, Dubai was hitting 40 degrees during this period). Since this is an extremely last post (I’m blaming it on everyone and everything else but me ) and we have all probably had our fill of it, this will b... »

BB10 Jam Americas – Feeding the Frenzy

Today, we experienced the dizzying event that was BB10 Jam Americas……another teasing look as is the norm with RIM. But what a show. We got a more  detailed look at the OS on the new Dev Alpha B handset as they had run through the 5,000 units of the Dev Alpha handset constructed earlier in the year. While the Dev Alpha had a design borrowed from the PlayBook, the Dev Alpha B looks unlik... »

BlackBerry and the Woman – Say thank you RIM

BlackBerry and the Woman – Say thank you RIM

Have you ever seen an ad from a mobile company geared towards women which was not stereotypical? I doubt it. There are over a billion youth female smart phone owners. Now that is a huge, and important number. With new research suggesting that more women buy tech and play mobile games than men, its safe to say that women’s role has changed from passive “end consumers” to key chang... »

MY Best Headphones/Earphones – No Beats?

MY Best Headphones/Earphones – No Beats?

I have always marveled at the magic of the marketing behind Beats by Dre. Most self acclaimed music afficioanados swear by Beats. First time I tried it, I was left wanting more, wondering what the noise (:D) was all about. While it gives a pleasant output, I have had better music highs. For me, the most important feature of an earphone is the ability to give me pure, unadulterated output without t... »

GADGET ADDICT – Apps for Interior Design

I have a love for design/designing and have found an app that gives me the needed high in that aspect. Its called Houzz and has been hailed as “the Wikipedia of interior and exterior design” by CNN and the “Flickr of design idea sites” by The Washington Post. It was created by a couple, Adi tarok and Alon Cohen to aid them in their own home renovation and now with over 400, 000 photos, it has the ... »
