Nintendo Action Figures

Action Figure Smackdown?

Who knows what we would have done as kids with Nintendo Action Figures. Back then, video games didn't have action figures... action figures were reserved for things like movies and bad cartoons. But we can't help imaging the youthful joy of inviting our friends over for an action figure smackdown featuring Yoshi, Darth Vader, Mario and Optimus Prime. Mario would have reigned victorious of course, after jumping on the heads of his opponents and decimating them with fireballs. Now decades later you can fulfill your dreams with these nifty Nintendo Action Figures. Choose from Yoshi, Donkey Kong, Mario, Fire Mario, or Goomba. Each is imported from Japan, stands approximately 5" tall, features simple articulation and sturdy vinyl construction.

MOSH mobile The "Free As You Go" Mobile Service

MOSH mobile wants to give you free cellphone service if you buy the phone. Currently in beta and invite only.

Official website here

The only way I can think a cell phone service can be free is if they had an ads system that would send ads to the phone. Which would offset the cost. This was a feature in the Gizmondo called Smartadds but it never launched. And the only one who I think can pull off a free phone service with ads is google.

AT&T iPhone service bills running long

New York Times columnist David Pogue and John Gruber of Daring Fireball are reporting that iPhone customers’ AT&T bills contain overly lengthy explanations of data usage. Writes Pogue, “I get six pages of listings of data tidbits that the iPhone has downloaded in the form of email and Web pages–kilobyte by kilobyte! Every graphic on every Web page, every message sent or received–it’s all carefully listed by date and time.” Gruber confirms the excess, stating that his own data listing “weighs in at 45 pages.” It is important to note that while lengthy, the listings provide no specifics of browser activity. For environmentally conscious iPhone owners who would like to enroll in paperless billing and avoid receiving pages of data transfer listings, you can sign up for the free service at att.com/mywireless.

HTC Kaiser gets FCC Approval

We hoping that the HTC Kaiser is closer to release after clearing the FCC. There will be three versions of the phone. One with no camera(similar to the previous 8500), one with a camera on back(similar to 8525) and one camera in front and back of phone(which most likely be the international one(similar to the Tytn, Dopod 838pro).

I'm thinking the second one may end being the AT&T 8925 successor to the AT&T 8525. Hopefully official release dates are released soon.

Pocketables reviews the Flipstart

Jenn K. Lee over at Pocketables.net has a review of the Flipstart 1.0 (E-1001S). This is the conclusion she comes out with.

Even if I could overlook its outdated design, chunkiness, and lack of a touchscreen, I would find it difficult to recommend the FlipStart because of its very high starting price: $1999. For a 30GB hard drive, 512MB of RAM, and little innovation in terms of pushing the limits of the form factor, it's just too much.

I do like the backlit keyboard, integrated 3G connectivity, accessory bundle, and input options (particularly the touchpad), but there are better alternatives on the market right now that are much less expensive. In fact, the current price puts the FlipStart above the best configuration of the OQO Model 02 and the Sony Vaio UX380N, both well known for their premium price tags.

GenerationMP3 Tests Archos 605

Here's the conclusion they came to:

Before testing the 605 Wifi, we thought that this one was only one update of its predecessor, the 604 Wifi. With final, one notes that Archos made evolve/move its product much more than what one would have pus to believe it.

The 605 Wifi is before a whole video walkman: it is compatible with many formats (if you buy the plug-ins) and has a very good video quality. It is addressed to the people wishing to look at its vidéos in wandering mode.
Audio side, it is not badly, but one is nevertheless far from a walkman with a very good audio quality as one connait it at Cowon or even Sony…
Concerning WiFi, since it is a large point proposed by Archos, this one functions very well for all that is streaming, even VoD, but for navigation Internet, it will be necessary to be patient in spite of the support with the flash… On the latter point, Archos has still progress to make and to make pay to 30€ the Opera navigator for this very mitigated result, it is exaggerated perhaps a little.
This new version thus gains in quality, in speed but loses small alleviating but useful functionalities like the microphone or the exit TV.
What disturbs us more, it is the policy of the plug-ins or another modules of Archos; admittedly the product is at a very gravitational price, 300€, but if you wish to benefit from it the maximum it will be necessary to put the hand at the pocket and to approach the 500€.
In the absence of real competitors on the French market, Archos is placed as a leader with this 605 Wifi which is a complete PMP when one puts at it the price and which will make the happiness of many users

Mobile View reviews HTC Touch

Here's a summary of Allistair Lee's thoughts on the HTC Touch

Do I like the Touch? Surprisingly, despite its rather run-of-the-mill hardware specifications, I found that I really do like it. Also, unlike some other Pocket PC phones I've tested, I feel comfortable using it. The only real issue I have is the text input. Without a keypad or a keyboard or even a usable software keyboard/alphanumeric keypad, sending SMS messages on this device can be challenging. And while the text-input issue can hopefully be addressed in the next ROM update, those looking for 3G Internet surfing or video-calling will have to wait till another version of the Touch comes along. Top marks to HTC for the effort. It is not quite there yet in terms of the interface, but this is definitely a step in the right direction. The phone size and price are just right, in my opinion.

WebCockpit 1.0

I had a chance to check out this Web 2.0 application “The Simpleology WebCockpit 1.0.” The description reads The Simpleology WebCockpit 1.0 is our first "Web 2.0" application designed to allow our users to apply the simpleology principles (as taught in the Wall Street Journal best-selling book and the Simpleology 101 online course) in an automated setting. Since both simpleology 101 and the WebCockpit are free, I thought I give it a try.

So I signup for a free account. Once the account was setup. I was presented with three programs.

simple●ology Wimiki 1.0.0.3 (Essential!)
This tool sits in the lower right corner of your desktop and directs you throughout your day to do things that will boost your Energy and your work effectiveness, and more. It's like having a own little coach sitting in your corner coaxing you closer and closer to greatness.

simple●ology DesktopCockpit 1.2 What's New
This extends the WebCockpit onto your Windows desktop so you have instant access to these vital functions throughout your day.

simple●ology Browser Bodyguard 1.2 What's New
Does web surfing ever become a distraction to your work? This tool will make you the master of your browser, rather than your browser the master of you. Just try it and you'll see!

So I downloaded all three and installed them. And finally your taken to the WebCockpit account where you can take courses which you learn the Simpleology techniques.

Overall I felt if you put in the work simpleology can change your life for the better.

For anyone who wants self improvement and better life then check out WebCockpit 1.0

Pocketables reviews the Samsung K3

Jenn K. Lee of Pocketables takes a look at the fashionable Samsung K3. Here's her thoughts

The Samsung K3 is a sleek, slim, and stylish flash player that fares better as a trendy accessory to slip into tight pockets than as a workout companion to throw into a gym bag.

GearDiary reviews PDAir 4-in-1 PDA Stylus

I was actually interested in getting this product since I hate those small stock stylus that electronics devices come with. Only the price on the stylus is not right. Pdair sells the 4-in-1 stylus for $15. Which is to expensive in my opinion. You can get the same exact stylus pen at Deal Extreme for $3.75 shipped. Buy it here for that price.

Pocketables reviews iriver clix 2 cradle

Jenn k. lee of Pocketables takes a look at the iRiver Clix 2 cradle. Her conclusion is:

The iriver clix 2 cradle would be a fantastic, must-have accessory if not for its integrated speaker, which sounds great on paper but falls far short of even lowered expectations in person. Not only does it produce muffled and tin-like sound, but it's also the root of one of my other gripes about the unit: no dedicated volume controls.

If iriver omitted the speaker (and added an LED indicator for battery status), the dock could still command its $45 asking price based solely on its charging/syncing capabilities and good looks. Then again, its unconventional design (part of its appeal) doesn't make any sense without its speaker.

Why i hate AT&T!

OK now I receive mail that my home phone service will be changing to the new AT&T. They said I will save money if I use the new AT&T service plan. While I do save a little money. They seem to change what it will cost per month. The guy I signup with the plan stated it would cost around $70 a month. Then a couple days later I call again and was told it would cost $86. By the time I receive my next bill. Who knows what it will end up costing me. This is the main reason I held off getting an iPhone. AT&T simply sucks!
