HTC Touch Pro2
Great looking device wish i could get my hands on one. Playing around with it the HTC UI works great almost never seeing the old Windows Mobile format. Currently T-Mobile, Sprint and at&t as the HTC Tilt2, carry this phone. I would like to see the Windows Mob Marketplace grow a bit more. To have more diverse selection of apps. A very cool device check out more.

Original XBox Live Service Closing
Microsoft announces that On April 15th, they will be pulling the plug on the XBox Live service for Xbox games. This means that ALL Origianl Xbox games, including thous that are playable on the XBox 360 will not be able to go online. This includes games that have been downloaded through XBox live on the 360. This is going to upset plenty of Halo 2 players, but Microst says they will gain more flexibility with Live by doing this.

Sega Genesis Ultimate Collection hitting iPhone
Don’t you just miss those good days of playing classic Sega games? Well its your lucky day, for all you iPhone customers anyway. There’s an app said to be hitting iPhone’s app store in about another month with the release of only a few of Sega’s games to start. Games include: Sonic, Ecco the Dolphin, Shining Force and Golden Axe. As a heads up, these games won’t be free! But of course, Sega were generous enough to include a free game along with your downloaded app, Space Harrier II. Wonder what else is in store for the iPhone or any phone for that matter as far as video games go. Enjoy your copy when get your hands on it next month!
HTC HD2
I first came across this during Microsoft’s CES 2010 keynote. Slated to come to T-Mobile, from what I’ve seen it looks great. A nice slick design along with a good looking bright screen, and a great looking interface. I’ve been looking for a device that would take me away from my iPhone and this may be it. Don’t get me wrong I love my iPhone but I want something new and different. I must say that Microsoft sucked me back in with there Windows 7, so I’m hoping this device will do the same. I cant wait to get this in my hands.
You can read more info on this device at HTC.

Sony shows off there OLED 3D at CES 2010. From what we’ve come across on the web the HDTV looks great. Thin and futuristic, this is a 24.5 OLED TV set, which Engadget says
we have to admit to being blown away once more by the sheer vibrancy and clarity of the output
We cant forget that its also sporting 3D support. A definitely cool emerging technology that will be seeing more in newer HDTV models. Will be waiting for them to become more affordable. No expected release date has been established.
Ceton Announces Quad-Tuner Card
CES 2010 brought us plenty of things, one of these being the great Ceton Quad-Tuner. As you’d expect, it is a multi-stream CableCard tuner. This fits in a single PCI-E card that lets you record four HD channels at one time. This is great news for those that rely on a Media Center computer as the primary source of receiving and recording Cable/Satellite TV. As we all know its cheaper to get a cable toner on a computer than getting the Cable or Dish box. By using the CableCard offer by all providers at a much lower cost ranging from $2- $8 per month.
According to the Centon website, the tuner is scheduled to be realeased on March 31, 2010, priced at $399. A must have for those of us that have a Media Center powered entertainment center.
A Deeper Look At The Skullcandy Hesh Headphones
So what do you think? Attractive piece of equipment huh? But what matters more is the performance of these well-designed headphones, the Skullcandy Hesh. So on that note, the performance.. is actually good as well! Yea, there are plenty more of headphones out there, but this is definitely worth blogging on. We did some research and the Skullcandy is quite popular for good reasons. Nice sound quality, comfortable, a good frequency response and obviously its style gives out like eye-candy to its buyers. Thus attracting consumers kind of like a magnet attracts medal. These are well recommended for those who enjoy bass levels in their music to be top-notch, it really does the trick. To conclude the Skullcandy Hesh, overall its more than decent and possibly well above average. Now that you’ve seen this, expect to notice others with it too. Ever felt worried that you’d feel geeky with big headphones?? Worry not, for the Skullcandy Hesh Headphones are here.
For those interested, we spotted an up and coming seller here, a good price for us.
Current Video Game Consoles Turning into Laptops
This discovery is very interesting indeed. Transforming a Console into a laptop brings up many questions: Where do you begin? What does it take to accomplish this experiment? And so forth. These images in particular are of the PS3 and the Xbox 360. This PS3 laptop was created by Ben Heck while the Xbox was done by Collin (CollinE as known on Ben Heck’s forum). You may be able to find these products on Ebay if you look hard enough. Look them up, definitely worth seeing what it’s capable of.
