Motorola RAZR V3c: Six Months Later
Posted by Mark Harrison Categories: Smartphones, Features, Product Reviews,
About 6 months ago, with great anticipation, we picked up the Motorola RAZR V3c for Verizon. Boy, were we ever excited! Unfortunately, our high expectations led us to great disappointments.
Our biggest complaint half-a-year ago was the phones battery life. That annoyance has grown into a huge problem. Six months ago, twelve hours of marginal use cost us half of our battery life. These days it is more like ten hours of minimal use sends the phone into the annoying Motorola “can’t turn off the stupid low-battery alert even though the phone is on silent and helps run down the remaining battery life even faster” chime.

Gear Live Review: iRiver clix Review
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Design, Features, Portable Audio / Video, Product Reviews,
We are glad to see that there are finally PlaysForSure MP3 players being released that can match up to the iPod not only in features (easy to do), but in form factor and ease of use as well (hard to do). At first glance, the iRiver clix looks like such a device. The clix is a redesigned iRiver U10, remixed with input from both the Windows Media Player 11 team and MTV, and is currently one of the only three PlaysForSure devices that is compatible with WMP 11 and the MTV URGE service. Does that make it good? We give you our full iRiver clix review after the jump.

Bleeding Edge Byte 020: Sonos ZP80 Bundle Review
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Features, Home Entertainment, Portable Audio / Video, Product Reviews, Videocasts, Wireless / WiFi,
The Sonos ZonePlayer P80 Bundle is the first sub-$1000 Sonos package available, although it technically retails for $999 USD. If you haven’t heard, Sonos allows you to stream music throughout your household by placing ZonePlayers wherever you want to hear your tunes. Using a proprietary networking spec, ZonePlayers connect to your audio library, and can be mixed and matched. You control everything using your PC or the Sonos remote. How does it perform? We take a look in this episode.

Gear Live Review: Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 6000 Review
Posted by Rob Stevens Categories: Accessories, Features, Microsoft, PC / Laptop, Peripherals, Product Reviews,
I’ve been taking my sweet time going over this desktop set with a fine-toothed comb, using it every day to ensure that I’m giving it a fair shake. I’ve positioned the wireless receiver everywhere I can, I’ve changed the batteries, and I’ve changed wireless channels. The only verdict I can come to after several months of use is that this desktop set should probably be avoided.
I used to hate wireless keyboards, because they seemed like a needless luxury item. Unless you’re surfing the web on your big screen TV, what could you probably need a wireless keyboard for? Once I had one, I understood…a wireless keyboard is a fantastic way to reduce wire clutter, not to mention reclaiming desk space by simply moving the keyboard out of the way when you need to.
