Iconic LEGO sculpture Nathan Sawaya is at it again, and boy does he know his audience. We’ve discussed how Sawaya proved to us the fine line between LEGO art and LEGO play, but he’s just taken it a step further with his newest creation – a five-foot tall LEGO model of the Blackberry Tour 9360. But don’t worry, Sawaya didn’t ...

Smartphone Comparison Chart Lays Down the Facts
I’ve been looking for a chart such as this one that lays down the facts of the newest generation of smartphones, providing an easy basis of comparison. Each phone has its own pros and cons, except the Palm Pre, which is almost all cons (sorry Sprint, you lose). But in all honesty, what other phone could you do this with? ...

And the Nexus makes the G1 looks like some sort of gargantuan monstrosity. This photo really gives some sort of perspective of the dimensions of the Nexus One. I can almost feel it in my hands. Almost. My iPhone is too busy taking that spot at the moment. Link

Sprint and Palm just let the cat out of the bag: Come June 6th, you’ll be able to pick up a supposedly “decent” rival to the iPhone.

I’m sick of it. I can feel the steely gaze from a mass of haters as I whip out my iPhone. Their looks say one thing. “Poser!” Like I just joined the iPhone bandwagon yesterday. I’ve been rocking the iPhone since its debut, brotha. I’m not some sheep. As a person who totally derives his self-worth based on the opinion ...

It seems like only yesterday I was using my 350 MHz HP desktop. It was the creme of the crop at the time and ran the original Half-Life like a champ. Combined with my 3DFX Voodoo 3 graphics card, I was set. Fast forward to the end of 2008 and Asus is unveiling a PDA phone with an 800 MHz ...

Out of left field comes an announcement that ASUS is producing a Google Android-equipped cellphone. There’s not many details available on the device, except that it’ll launch during the first half of 2009. Until then, all we can do is wait and kill time by photoshopping Android screenshots onto HTC devices. Link

Cellphone power users love their Blackberry. I miss mine but alas, it took a spill a few years ago and never recovered.
