 Earlier today, we covered the release of the new Firefox OS phone, the ZTE Open. While I'm a fan of competition, I'm not convinced we need yet another phone OS. I discussed this earlier this year in my post on Ubuntu when I said that app development was already fragmented, and Ubuntu would just add to that. The Firefox OS repeats this. What makes or breaks a mobile operating system is the availability of apps and more… Continue reading Firefox on Phones or “Do We Need Yet Another Phone OS?”  Voxx Accessories (a division of VOXX International Corp.) gave CE Week attendees a chance to interact with their impressive new products. I was excited to check out the Soundboard Portable Speaker with Soundflow technology that's been making its name known in the technology industry. Convenience and quality are the choice words to describe the Voxx Soundboard. The setup is simple enough: put your smartphone on the soundboard and let it play. The sound "flows" from your smartphone to the speaker via wireless audio, hence "Sound flow." However, a simple setup does not mean simple audio.

Handibot can make super-accurate cuts and holes in soft materials like wood and foam in a 6″x8″x4″ area. It interfaces with smartphones, tablets, and more »Continue reading Handibot, an App-Based Power Tool is Now Up on Kickstarter   ComiXology, the popular online seller of digital comic books, just announced a couple new tiers of service. In addition to being able to purchase comics individually, customers now have the option to subscribe to specific series and purchase pre-selected bundles. Subscribing to a series has to be done through a desktop web browser instead of more »Continue reading ComiXology Begins Selling Subscriptions and Bundles   Late last week Barnes & Noble, Inc announced that it will no longer be producing most of the NOOK line of tablets on their own, bowing out of competition with Apple, Google, and Amazon.com for the battle of the e-book reader. Less that favorable annual earnings topped the list of reasons why the company will no longer be producing the Nook color. It is no surprise when you consider that the Nook's losses before interest and other costs was more than $450 million, soaring over last year's number by over… Continue reading Nook: Shelved by Barnes & Noble  | |
