Oh Monday, you come around approximately once every seven days. Your ability to abruptly end fun knows no limits. The only suitable recourse against your nefarious existence is for us to purchase discounted electronics items in preparation for the upcoming weekend–a weekend which always seems so far away. Well played, Monday. You’ve

Spanish-language site Clipset.net apparently got some hands-on time with the HP Slate and revealed that European pricing will be set at 400 Euro, which is equivalent to just under $550 here in the US.
That’s not to say that it’ll actually cost $550 here, though. If I were a betting man, I’d think that HP might be shooting for

This defeats the purpose of being able to bring your data with you. It’s a 4GB USB thumb drive that looks like a gun. A small gun, sure, but small guns have existed since the Derringer–maybe even before that.
My dad got stopped bringing a souvenir Derringer through airport security about 20 years ago after a trip to Disney World. …
Mac users can now download Amazon’s Kindle software, which will synchronize books between an actual Kindle, compatible mobile devices (currently iPhone/iPod touch and BlackBerry), and the desktop client.

I took a look at the HP Mini 5102 netbook and recorded the entire process in the above video. I cut out the bad stuff and left in the good stuff.
I reviewed the base level model, which sells for $415. It’s got a 1.66GHz Intel Atom CPU, 1GB of RAM, 160GB hard drive, 4-cell battery and Windows 7 Starter. The screen measures 10.1 …
Evan had the March 28th date pegged a month ago, but here it is straight from the source. Nintendo has officially announced that the DSi XL will be available at the end of the month for $190.

Alert Ned Flanders! This Razer DeathAdder Left Hand Edition Gaming Mouse is a perfect item to be sold at the Leftorium in Springfield Mall.
Razer claims this is “the world’s first gaming mouse for left-handers.” Is that true? Man, you lefties have it rough. On behalf of technology, I’m really sorry it’s taken until 2010 for …
Today is St. Patrick’s Day. What better strange and mysterious creature to examine from a cryptozoological standpoint than the leprechaun?
Modern-day depictions of the leprechaun—little bearded men with pots of gold filled by paychecks from television appearances hocking sugary children’s cereal—can be seen as “little more …
Acer’s currently-available “Timeline” series of ultraportable notebooks made waves back when they were released thanks to their inch-thick frames and relatively light travel weight. The current crop uses Intel’s Consumer Ultra Low Voltage (CULV) processors, which sit somewhere in between netbook CPUs and a full-fledged notebook …
