Droid is a distraction

I want an iPhone. I currently have a BlackBerry Curve with T-Mobile and my two-year contract will end in December.

Purple Hate Machine

What’s purple and big and really, really cute?

Barney?

Don’t make me smack you!

No silly, it’s the heavy lifting power suit mech thingy from James Cameron’s upcoming movie Avatar. I’d heard of this movie in passing; thought the premise was interesting. The big display at E3 that everyone is drooling over is what caught my attention the most. On first look I thought it was pink. On second look, I saw it was purple and immediately thought of Sigourney Weaver in Aliens 2: Electric Boogalo. (I couldn’t resist.) The big difference with this cuteybot is that it’s made for shooting things. I think the BIG gun on the front won’t confuse you into thinking that this bot is happy to see you.

And SHUT UP! Sigourney Weaver is in this movie! *crosses fingers and prays* Please man the mech. Please man the mech.

And GET OUT! Sam Worthington is in this movie too! Sam is the new “it boi”!

AND ZOMFG! Zoe Saldana is in this movie too!

My HP Mini

I bought a HP Mini at the beginning of March. I’ve been extremely satisfied with it. It is light, small and… well… pretty.

Geekgasms and CES

Oh… How I love CES (Consumers Electronics Show). I’ve never been before but I’m going to make it to the heaven-for-gadget-lovers one of these days. I don’t fret about not being able to go. With all of the coverage, it’s just like I’m there. I can see it all without paying for hotel or airfare.

Last year CES introduced us to Bug Labs. I fell in love with these guys. They make snap together DIY gadgets. You have a base gadget that you can customize based on your needs. If you need a projector with wifi, you can build it. If you need a camera, speakers with 3g, you got it. I’ve heard some folks call it legos for rich kids but I still love the idea. Will I buy? Someday.

Other announcements I’m excited about are:
$99 touch MP3 player by Memorex. It’s 8 GB!
$200 Sony web camcorder
$180/ $250 Acoustic Research Universal Remote
The LG’s LHB979 Home Theater System makes me want to melt.
