If I Could Build The Gadget Of My Dreams, Yamaha’s Tenori-On Would Be It.

31. August 2007 Music, europe, gadgets 0 Comments

The Yamaha Tenori-On is the most amazing piece of hardware that I’ve seen this year. Don’t brush this off as just another synth toy for house music geeks. This musical gadget has so many options and configurations that it makes the Chromatone 312 feel like it’s made by Fisher Price.

WTF? Heroes Season 1 Costs One Hundred Dollars!?

27. August 2007 HD-DVD, TV 5 Comments

I’m a fan of the Heroes series on NBC, but I just found out I’m not an avid die-hard fan of the series like I thought I was (unlike some people I know). It happened when I opened my Sunday paper and read through the Best Buy ad. I saw that first season of the [...]

Don’t get me wrong, I love my wireless router. But it’s not really what I’d call a pageant winner. It’s a Linksys and it looks about as eye-catching as a blue-painted cardboard box. It has some blinkelichts on it, but nothing fancy. It serves its purpose and I didn’t think I “needed” anything else.
