I have got to disagree with the statement from Tom's Hardware that
the PDA is an endangered species. Yes, they are being replaced by 'all
in one devices' now a days.s But personally, I like my cell to be my
cell. If I loose it, I really do not want all of my personal data in
there. As for my PDA, my needs are few and that is why I am perfectly
happy with my... [Continued]

As many of us already know, PalmSource has had its share of
financial problems. Lucky for them, Acer was able to come along and

No one home media center option is perfect for everyone. Both
Windows Media Center and SageTV both fit the bill with this

they have been doing this awhile? You had better just read the review
and decide for yourself.... [Continued]

Speaking as someone that has Comcast in their area, I have to say
that it is about time they get DVRs into our homes! In my area, this
is one of the biggest reasons that DirectTv is so popular. Now, I
wonder if Comcast will be able to rectify this with the release of
Motorola's dual tuner, HDTV 6412 DVR. It will not con me into ditching
my Satellite TV, but it would make me... [Continued]
