February 4 - Innovation & Originality


I’m not one for taking sides, but even as a Windows Vista Ultimate buyer, after watching this video, it’s hard to score Microsoft any points on the innovation scale.

50,000,000 lines of code? Sheesh… They really are branching out!

January 29 - £9 DVD Player


When major supermarket chains go and launch £9 DVD Players, you know that the industry has moved on… And so it has. ASDA, UK-based retailer, are offering the new ‘uber cheap player’ to anyone and everyone.

“Asda, which is part of the American Wal-mart empire, has launched a major move into home electricals, as have Tesco and Sainsbury’s. Around 80,000 of the Durabrand 1005 machines will hit the supermarket’s stores. The development is indicative of savage price cuts on gadgets, where prices are now so low that they can be thrown away and replaced.” via ThisIsLondon.

I must admit, I had no idea Wal-Mart owned ASDA… I must have missed something major there! O_o

January 29 - Hammond Crash Footage

We brought you the great video of a hamster re-enacting Hammond’s crash a few months back, but this time, it’s the real deal.

And that was Richard Hammond! Yeah, that was amazing! But truth be told, it wasn’t half the ‘bang’ I’d expected. Still, he’s one lucky guy!

January 21 - Official New iPhone Features

Today, in an official Apple press release, it was announced that the iPhone is to incorporate some spiffy new features. I won’t rant and rave like usual, but I’ll let you check it yourself.

My favourite comment on YouTube? “This looks like a spoof to me” and another comment by someone either trying to be funny, or is just plain stupid. In it, they were discussing all of the features, and then asked why Apple said it was hard to use as a phone.

Some people these days! Good grief. When I were a lad…

January 17 - Uber HDTV Prices

Just when you though that 1060P might be good enough, Westinghouse came out ans spoiled all the fun. Despite there being no 2160P Double-HD content available, the company is marketing the 52-inch monster at ‘designers & professionals’. The $50,000 price tag kind of suggested that it wasn’t marketed at everyday Joes. I’d be crashing the Techzi budget if I said I was going to buy and test one of these TVs, so I won’t even get my hopes up.



That said, until some 2160P content gets released, I’m not really sure what use the TV would be, or how you could test it lives up to it’s “Uber” branding. We all know how hyped Westinghouse got about their TVs, but according to Gadgetell, at CES, they barely got a mention. Weird, huh? Perhaps they thought people would prefer a 120-inch Full-HD TV that they can see the benefits on, rather than a 52-incher costing more, which has no current benefits.
