PSP Go Review

Sony released the PSP Go on October 1, 2009 in the USA to much criticism and skepticism. The PSP Go is Sony’s first attempt at a pure digital distribution based handheld console. Prior PSP models used both Memory Stick and UMDs for game playing. The PSP Go forgoes the UMD drive for a smaller, sleeker slider design. It also adds Bluetooth connectivity, 16GB of onboard flash ram for games, photos, music, and comics and also sports an upgraded M2 memory card slot. The biggest shocker of all was the price, $250 US Dollars; the Go was more expensive than a Wii and only $50 less than a PS3 or XBOX 360 at the time of launch.

Blackberry 8830 (verizon) Review

Ah yes, a new Blackberry from Verizon that promises to be a true “global” phone in that it has both GSM and CDMA radios. Add to that a much sexier design and the pearl scroller and you get the new 8830e from Verizon. So, does the 8830 live up to the Blackberry name or does [...]
