Glad to hear that somebody else out there loves the Rio Karma! It was one of my favorite MP3 players ever... loved the 5 band parametric EQ! Now, if I could only find the time to replace that faulty hard drive with something bigger, I might have a recycled gadget to bring back to life!

That's a great reminder Jeremy, especially as we get closer to the holiday season.I try to hold out as much as I can. I'm finally getting a new phone - an iPhone - after my 4 year old ipod finally died (2 weeks ago) and after my blackberry's started to get weird memory issues. I think the Zune is a great example of how the software upgrade really makes more a difference than changes in the hardware. Hopefully, we'll start to see more devices go this route - though of course, you'll need new hardware eventually.

Disclaimer: Please don’t throw out gadgets. If your current gadget works, keep using it, or gift it to someone you know. Nobody want it? Donate it. Just don’t throw em out - electronics waste is at an all-time high, and recent reports put a dubious spectre over the merits of recycling them. Remember: you probably [...]

$1100 almost gets you a new 13" Macbook. ;) Though I've always like Sony's smaller notebooks.

1100$? Dollars, is that a canadian price? 1100$ for this lappy seems a bit high. A new, updated model (sans the carbon fiber) can be had for 1399$ or less. I don't wanna be a debbie downer, but I just think expectations should be set, right? I know the carbon fiber is cool, and not sure if this unit had the WWAN, but it still seems like in "this economy" it might be a stretch.feel free to delete this post, I won't consider it censoring.

Nope, it’s not a joke or some cleverly worded piece of subterfuge, I’m selling my Vaio. For those of you who have followed, I’ve had some great times, followed by some terrible times, followed by some great times again with Vaios. But we’re going to move to a desktop at home (read: gaming [...]

When I first met David Cohn he was a wee lad, writing for Wired magazine and looking to expand his opportunities. He wrote many wonderful (and some not-so-wonderful) blog posts here, such as Internet Radio To-Go, Rsstroom for the Restroom, Writing in Pajamas, Wine Tech, Digital Art, Very Small DJs and of course, as [...]

How the Internet Defeated the McCain Campaign

Wed, 5 Nov 2008 01:28:09 -0600

My wording here is very deliberate, and I want to explain briefly why. Back in 2000, as a Canadian citizen (with US Green Card), I watched the elections, but didn’t pay all that much attention. At the time, I hoped for Gore to win, but I really liked John McCain and became forever resentful to [...]

Will the WePC be a Horse or a Camel?

Thu, 30 Oct 2008 15:46:26 -0500

Community-powered development and brainstorming is an interesting challenge. On one hand, you get exposure to more ideas and concepts than you can possibly get from an individual or small team. On the other hand, the signal-to-noise ratio rapidly gets out of control, and depending on the level of empowerment, you get clumsy, hard-to-use, yet feature-rich [...]
