I admit it, I was super excited to hear about the return of the RAZR brand.  I also will proudly admit that I was the owner of more than a few RAZR’s in my day and, at the time, thought it was the coolest phone to ever come out.  So, with a flagship brand name [...]

It’s been a while since my last post, and to be honest, there hasn’t been much to review/write about lately.  Today, Apple announce the long awaited upgraded iPhone.  They deviated from there normal release schedule (they usually release in June) for reasons unknown.  Below I will share some thoughts on the announcement as well as give my [...]

I have been a Google Voice (GV) user since it was Grand Central back in 2007.  It was a nice idea, yet it had a missing essential component preventing it from really going mainstream — number porting.  That is until now.  Google has finally enabled it’s users the ability to port their cell phone numbers [...]

Having just watched the announcement for the iPhone 4 on Verizon Wireless, I wanted to share my thoughts as to why I won’t be jumping ship and joining the masses as they line up to purchase the iPhone on America’s most reliable network. Here are a number of reasons why I won’t be standing in [...]

The Samsung Galaxy Tab is the first real competitor to the iPad and a formidable one at that.  It has been a long time coming since it was first announced and it will be very interesting to see if it can challenge the iPad with any kind of sales competition.  This is the first in [...]

I have recently had the opportunity to spend some time with the new Samsung Fascinate by Verizon Wireless, which is the Galaxy S variant, and am happy to report that I am pleasantly surprised with the latest Android handset to come from Verizon.  While there are some things that I like and some I dislike, [...]
