Gearbox shocked (shocked!) the video game world this year when they (sort of) announced Duke Nukem Forever at PAX. Not only had the Borderlands developer acquired the rights to DNF, but they’ve also been working on and it’s coming out next year! It looks like the game will come out for real [...]

It’s easy to forget about headphones, the devices that make your media private when you use them and are about the only things standing between some particularly annoying people and severe beatings. The folks at Empire Brands want to get a little extra fire going under their new lineup of [...]

Well, if ever there were a way you didn’t want to wake up in the morning, a crackling fire in your bed is probably pretty high up on the list. And you may think that’s a cruel joke in the poorest of taste but I assure you it’s literal accuracy, [...]

Most of us out there have at least one kind of USB charging device or another–whether it’s our MP3 player, or some digital cameras, or our cell phones, or what have you, chances are we all have something that plugs either into our computer, or into the wall via some [...]

This next bit is a little personal for me, as I lost my grandfather to heart troubles, and this is the kind of thing that may well save some lives. It’s not every day that we get a look at actual life-or-death hardware, so when I saw the iPhonECG, I [...]

The LG Ally was a popular phone for Verizon, but the Android phone hasn’t exactly received the attention that the Droid brand has gotten. LG Ally owners have been screaming for an Android 2.2 “Froyo” update to their phone – but now, the folks at LG are coming through for them. On [...]
