ZUNE HD

Mention portable media players and most probably the first thing that comes into your mind would be Apple’s iPod family, be it the Classic, nano, touch or shuffle.

Microsoft too, entered the portable media player market some time back with their line of Zunes, although...

PRE THEME FOR ANDROID SMACK DOWN BY PALM

Android's supposed to be all about peace, love, and openness, but that apparently doesn't exempt it from copyright law and trigger-happy general counsels (who knew?).

They've got two new rechargeable docks, and we're sure they sound nice and work well—but there's nothing new or exciting here. The S125i, checking in at $70, is totally standard: Universal iPod/iPhone dock, 3.5mm auxiliary input for other audio sources (I like using my Zune, because I'm a rebel like that), a one-touch bass boost button, and can run on 4 AA batteries for around 10 hours. Equally...

Kingston Now in 256GB, not in imagination before when we discuss about the size, its really amazing capacities, for a newcomer in SSD game. This SSD complete it with V + line have read and write speed up to 220MB/sec and 180MB/sec. respectively, and pack some higher input and output operations per second (or IOPS) to boot, which should also help to deliver an overall boost in speed. But wait about the prices, if you think that $254 are reasonable for 64GB model, what are you waiting for...
