I never get tired of tiny Windows machines. I’ve owned everything from the OQO to the Fujitsu UH100 to the Viliv N5 to the Dell Venue Pro 8. Now ASUS has tossed its large hat into the 8″ Windows tablet right with its new offering, the Vivo Tab Note 8. Available in 32 and 64 Read More…
I’ve never been much of a fan of watches. I’d either lose them, break them, or forget to wear them. Then cell phones came along, further denying my need for a time keeping device. However, I came upon a change of heart when I started coaching tennis. The girls would ask me what time it Read More…

What better way to encourage brushing in kids (and some adults) than by gamifying the twice a day chore?

What it does offer are some things that most of the speakers we review don’t have including a color display, physical remote control and the ability to play 1000′s of Read More…
