Long…

Slightly less embarrassing than carrying a fanny pack, this hipster lets you carry around your stuff in a little personal trailer.

Is the Apple iSight Getting An Upgrade Soon?

Is the venerable Apple iSight getting a much needed upgrade in the next two months?

Quick Zune Update: Brown, Underwhelming

Sony PSP2 to Debut in 2007 Says PSM

The October issue of PlayStation Magazine cited unnamed sources in a report stating that Sony will launch the next generation PSP in 2007.
