Sometimes, everyone needs a little time on their own, to chill out and get away from the stresses and strains of daily life. For many people, one of the best ways to do this is to sit down with their favorite music, film or book and completely escape into another world. Escapism is an art form, so with the January sales looming, there has never been a better time to invest in a high-quality entertainment gadget to really take you away from it all. With this in mind, we’ve put together a guide to the best entertainment technology for the coming year; read through this, and get ready to switch off in style.
Across the world, children are making their lists for Christmas. Tech gadgets always appear at the top as youngsters ask Santa for the latest device to play with on Christmas morning. This year, the iPhone 4S has proved to be at the top of the list sharing space with the iPad 2 and edging out Amazon’s Kindle.
The Sodahead website, which sets questions for its users and also allows visitors to the website to pose questions about practice and behavior to other users, asked people to say what gifts they wanted to receive this Christmas. Although some said they hadn’t decided yet, over a fifth said they wanted a tech gadget and of those, nearly 40% said they wanted an iPhone 4S. Coming in second place with 31% was the iPad 2 and the new Kindle Fire got 17% of the vote.
The Flip digital video camera is known as the world’s simplest HD camcorder. Who could have imagined that you could record 2 hours worth of 720p HD video on a device that fits in the palm of your hand. That’s what we get with the 3rd generation 8GB model of this Flip Ultra HD camcorder.
The Flip UltraHD is slimmer than ever, measuring 2.2 inches wide, 4.2 inches tall and is 1.2 inches thick. You can slip it in your pocket and carry it anywhere since it fits nicely and only weighs 5.6 ounces.
As we’re all aware, there are televisions where we watch local programming as well as cable TV shows which are viewable on your television. This massive amount of content is also available online as well as content produced solely for the web which are viewable on your computer. It is only natural to combine the two and convert your television into a “home theater pc”.
That’s where the Boxee comes into play. This service aims to bring video content found on the web to your television without the need of a computer, keyboard and mouse. This concept is relatively new but all signs point to this becoming the future of television. Gone will be the cable and satellite providers. Television will become personalized. You can watch what you want, when you want.
The desktop computer user, or someone with a TV/PC monitor setup, are only as mobile as their peripherals allow. Wireless technology comes in handy for those who want to be able to access their email and what-not from the couch as well as the desk. The latest innovation in wireless keyboards comes from Logitech in the form of their $67.00 K750 Solar Power model. While initially suspicious of the role and reliability of solar powered peripherals in indoor computer use, it was soon discovered that the K750 is not only reliable, it’s durable and comfortable too.
Last month HP announced a massive price drop on their HP Touchpad tablet. This created madness that created a Black Friday-like atmosphere around retailers who had the item in stock. One day, nobody wanted one. The next, everyone was trying to nab one. The lucky ones nabbed the 16 GB model for just $99.99. Quite the drastic drop from its original $499.99 retail value.
The reason why HP canned the HP Touchpad was due to low sales. These low sales were because this tablet should have never been priced at $499.99. That’s what the Apple iPad 2 and the Samsung Galaxy cost. Those came with iOS and Android, respectively. The HP Touchpad had the app-less webOS. What the frenzied sales showed was, if anything, that HP didn’t create an inferior product, it just priced it wrong.
