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.

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 [...]

Like a sheep happily wandering with the pack to the slaughter, I went out and bought an Xbox 360 yesterday.

The PEBL and SLVR have been the only significant releases from Motorola for quite a while [...]

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?

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.

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 [...]
