Nokia 6280 Review

A few days ago, I was sent a Nokia 6280, and since then I have been using it as my full-time handset – setting aside my N90 for a while. The best thing I could say about this device is that I have mixed emotions. Read my mini-review after the jump.

Sidekick + Hammer…

Have you ever really wanted to mess up a T-Mobile Sidekick? These guys did just that…

Xbox 360 Media Center Extender Experience

I have a Windows Media Center Edition PC that I use as my full-time machine, and have a Linksys Media Center Extender out in the lounge room that connects back to my box. It is a beefy PC (dual core 3.0GHz, 1GB RAM etc.) so this doesn’t have much of a performance hit for me [...]

You Spin Me Right Round, 360

Like a sheep happily wandering with the pack to the slaughter, I went out and bought an Xbox 360 yesterday. The Australian launch obviously was not as intense as the US one, as the box was only released yesterday, and without a pre-order, I simply wandered into a shop and picked one up.

The Daily Grind

I am desperately sorry about the lack of updates; I have been absolutely flat out with work. Rest assured though, my ‘to blog’ file is getting larger, and there will be updates VERY soon (like, today).
On the MobileBurn front, I am working on reviews for the Samsung D808 and P858, and should have those up [...]

Give Me Something New, Motorola…

So, Motorola released the PEBL in four new colors today. Am I supposed to be excited now? I am not saying there isn’t a place for choice in color, but I would much prefer Motorola actually announce something new.
The PEBL and SLVR have been the only significant releases from Motorola for quite a while now, [...]

You’re a Bad Blogger!

Let me ask a question: Are you a bad blogger if you don’t post to a schedule? I have been terribly busy getting through the piles of pictures and notes I have from CeBIT in Hannover last week, and so I haven’t posted much at all. Am I a bad blogger?

Even More Windows Live Messenger Invites

Microsoft must be feeling very generous, as it has just given me another 20 Live Messenger Beta invites to give out. Leave a comment if you want one.

Ted Leonsis – the Man with no Thoughts

I had high hopes for Ted’s Take – the blog of Ted Leonsis – but I have to say, I am sorely disappointed.
This guy has so many honors it is beyond the point of laughing. Vice President of AOL, part owner in three sports teams, former Mayor of Orchid, Florida, and has a net worth [...]
