Motorola to bring back the RAZR




Oh Moto, how you wish to be relevant again.  I'm sure anyone in the U.S. during the 2000's either owned a RAZR or saw an advertisement for it. The $300 RAZR ushered in the new thin metallic phone style that proved a phone could look great and fit in the pocket easily. From it's debut in 2004 to it's death in 2008 the RAZR sold a still standing record of 130 million units. The unbelievable success of the RAZR earned Motorola the top spot in mobile sales and billions of dollars in revenue. Well, after being buried for a few years Moto has decided to resurrect the name and try to move up in sales numbers again.

Xbox has slowly escalated into gaming dominance over the last few years. The explosion of Kinect last year, the addition of Zune media, and a touch of Netflix has made the Xbox a media powerhouse as well. Their not done yet, Microsoft is about to overhaul the UI to give Xbox a whole new feel. I'm going to give you a taste of some major changes you are about to see come to your living room in the next few months.

Football Tech 101




Ah football season is finally here for all to enjoy. Wait a minute this is a tech blog. Why is football being mentioned on a tech blog? I have two passions, one obviously is technology, and the other is hard nose American football. I am about to merge the two together while I show you the amazing technology behind the world's greatest sport.

It is Time for a Microsoft Boom!




There are a lot of haters and just plain negative feelings towards Microsoft these days. Their stock just sits in the mid-20s while Apple and Google explore the 300-500 range while making the same amount of revenue as Microsoft.  People just generally have a bad taste or a boring aura around the brand. Well, I think it is time for people to be optimistic about what Microsoft is about to do in the consumer market, and here is why.

HP WebOS#!^




The merger of HP and Palm was anything but smooth. Having purchased products from both companies I thought something great would happen. I thought Palm would now have what it needed to be become great again. Boy, I could not have been more wrong. Read my thoughts on why we should have seen the downfall of Palm.



So the last 48 hours has been quite a busy time for tech enthousiasts. On the wake of Google buying Motorola HP is now ditching the WebOS hardware devision it just purchased 1 yr ago. Below is a sad and very dry earnings call by HP announcing the death of WebOS.
