Comments: 0January 18th, 2008 by Kristofer

 

Toys, toys, toys, I love them all, yep I’m just a big kid at heart and always will be. I especially like remote control toys, the smaller the better I say, and it seems they are getting smaller and smaller all the time.

Last year the hot RC toy was the micro helicopter, this year it’s the micro airplane, and that’s what I’ve got today for review, specifically the Palm Z Silverlit Mini RC Indoor Airplane from HobbyTron.com. The Palm Z is tons of fun, it charges fast and has a decent flying time. So read on to learn more about it, and see a few movies as well…

“The video of Arctic Tale on HD DVD was amazing, but it was obvious that the filmmakers were working with a range of equipment, under a constantly changing backdrop. There are many shots that truly show off the brilliance of the high definition footage that was taken…”

2008 CES Coverage: Cooler Master, CSX, Zalman @ OCIA.net

Comments: 0January 18th, 2008 by Kristofer

 

OCIA.net has posted their 2008 CES Coverage: Cooler Master, CSX, Zalman article.  Below is a direct quote from the article:

“Cooler Master also had their line of custom computer case art at their booth, CSX. Cooler Master has teamed up with Smooth Creations to provide these hand-painted, limited edition chassis in many unique designs. I was totally blown away by the quality and detail of these paint jobs. The CSX cases have, by far, the best paint job that I have ever seen on a computer case. Expect to drop off $1200 – $1500 for a custom-designed CSX chassis.“

Saitek X52 Joystick Review

Comments: 1January 18th, 2008 by Kristofer
Saitek X52 Joystick Review motherboards.org

Author: Vlad Mihaiescu Date: 01-18-2007

First of all, this is a very reasonably priced controller: depending on the retailer, it is a little over $100. The Saitek X52 has more buttons then my Jeep (no kidding). It will be extremely hard to run across a flying game that is not compatible with this joystick. Even a game made in 1997 worked great on the X52. Another amazing feature of the X52 Flight Control System is the ability to program different games on different profiles. Thus the X52 is large-family-friendly as well: one joystick with multiple profiles for multiple games, so what more could you want? Whether it is just for your or even if you have to share, the Saitek X52 Flight Control System is a “must-own” for any flight enthusiast. This really is a great product.

“Next up in our series of iPhone case reviews is the OtterBox for iPhone Defender Series. OtterBox is well-known for offering extremely rugged, often waterproof cases for everything from laptops to smart phones, PDAs and iPods.  The Defender Series is touted as having bump, drop, and dust protection, and, while not waterproof, will provide protection against rain and other precipitation. Otterbox also has an Armor series for the iPhone, which is even more rugged: completely waterproof, dust-proof, and drop-proof.”
