    Steam: Baldur's Gate-EE $10, Guns of Icarus Online $5

    Don't buy BGEE via any method but beamdog direct right now as you will join me in waiting 2-3 weeks for Atari to pass the patch along to you(if they even keep doing it with their problems) and there have been reports of mods not being happy with how the Atari modified the directory structure of...

    OCZ 512GB Vertex 4 SSD - $299 + FS

    On Amazon http://www.amazon.com/OCZ-Industrys-.../dp/B008MIJOTK <standard OCZ reliability complaint> The Warrenty is 5 years and many people say you'll need it as they have had bad results with OCZ SSDs. I've never had a problem but I'm just as anecdotal as they are and a smaller sample...

    256GB Crucial M4 $199.99 FS

    Its not the speed but the fact that my laptop only has one 2.5 inch bay.

    256GB Crucial M4 $199.99 FS

    If we got this kind of $/GB for the 512GB drives I'd say "screw it" to my upgrade cycle plans.

    WinMo, or Android - which one is better?

    Well, I can only offer anecdotal evidence from my phone which can run both WM6.5, Android 4.0, and WP7.5 and from my experience on the HTC HD2. I currently run WM6.5 due to it having the best battery life and the most stable bluetooth tether. WM 6.5 (Best battery life) >> Android >> WP7...

    [DEAD]REVISED Newegg Linksys refurb E3000-RM $45.99 free shipping

    The problem is that a number of models were when you turn of WPS the hack still works as the router still responds to requests. The only fix in that case is to flash over to Tomato or DD-WRT.

    Patriot Xporter XT Boost USB 2.0 32GB Flash Drive. Model PEF32GUSB: $22.99 AR FS

    They are pretty fast. My well used one will still put up ~16MB/s write and ~25MB/s read speeds on AS SSD. These are sequential numbers. The random numbers aren't as nice but that might be due to the AMD C-60 laptot I'm performing these tests from as the random results on the Intel 320 SSD in it...

    Nikon P7000 $250 @ Amazon

    Sure is. At $250 I'd take a risk on my wife not liking it but the extra $30 bumps it out of my take a chance range. The 7100 fixes the tendency for the 7000 model for having shutter problems and isn't that much more the the new price.

    Next Casio Military Spec Phone

    This is their website. I've got one for my HD2 and from that one and the ones I've seen other people using they are the current best manufacture of ruggidized cases for smartphones right now. They typically make three levels of protection for each phone. The lowest isn't much better then...

    EVE!

    Actually, with the exception of Rockets every time they "rebalance" a weapon system they have over done it and made it the new flavour of the month.

    4.7" HTC WP7 hand's on

    Oooo, this is starting to get back to the 5" size I loved in the HTC Advantage(nee Athena) that I owned and enjoyed just a few years ago. I do hope they haven't skimped on the battery again. I've been saddened by the weak 12-1800 mAH batteries in most of the recent large screen phones. Bring...
