DJ Hero Brings the Party to Your Television, online gift guide

DJ Hero Brings the Party to Your Living Room

DJ Hero, recently released by Activision, is a musically charged game, similar to Guitar Hero, where a player must keep things moving via pressing the right combination buttons. Unlike Guitar Hero, where the weapon of choice is naturally a faux guitar, DJ Hero comes with a special controller shaped as a close-to-life-size turntable.

My Week with Droid

The longer you live with someone, the more you notice their quirks - both good and bad. The same goes with tech gadgets. Since I first got my hands on Motorola's new Droid smart-phone, I've found some things I really like about the device - and some things I really hate. But my overall opinion since I reviewed it last week hasn't changed much. I still think it comes up short against the iPhone, but I also think the Droid, now on sale, is probably the best smart-phone choice out there other than Apple's iconic gadget.

For Music Buffs, Zune HD Strikes Right Tune

At first glance, the Zune HD looks a lot like Apple's iPod touch. It has a thin rectangular shape with a large touch-screen and very few physical buttons. The Zune HD has a few key features that the iPod touch doesn't have - namely an HD Radio tuner.

How do the New iPod Nano's Features Stack Up?

In a rather dramatic move, Apple added a completely new feature to the iPod nano, the middle member of the product family: a video camera. For the past month, I've been using this fifth-generation nano. It's a sleek, stylish device and is typically Apple. But overall, it's not that different from the previous nanos, and I'm not sure the video camera is going to make current iPod owners want to pony up the bucks for this one.

Xbox 360 Excels as a Media Hub

Let's be clear -- your teenager wants an Xbox 360. This video game console, made by Microsoft, is the hottest thing around, offering fantastic games, amazing graphics, and state-of-the-art accessories. But even if you don't have any minors in the house, or you aren't a current or former video game junkie, you might still want to check out an Xbox. While Xbox 360 remains the cream of the crop in terms of gaming, its uses go beyond anything involving button mashing.

Casio Exilim EX-FC100 Does It All, and Then Some

The Casio Exilim EX-FC100 has everything you need in a camera, and then some. It's light enough that you might forget about it until it is time to leap into action. And, oh, what nice results.

Easy-to-Use Violight Razor Sanitizer Zaps Germs

SanDisk Sansa Fuze: Still a Great Little Media Player

Online bargain house Woot! is offering the 4GB, refurbished version of SanDisk's Sansa Fuze for a mere $32.99 today.

Hewlett-Packard Mini 1151 NR: Ultra-Portable Netbook Takes Web Almost Anywhere

Ultra-portability just got a little more ultra-portable with the Hewlett-Packard Mini 1151 NR. Verizon is the first major carrier in the U.S. to embed an EV-DO chip directly into a computer. In other words, the 1151 NR works a lot like your smartphone when it comes to the Web. It can dial up blazing speeds on Verizon's 3G network just about anywhere. And like a smartphone, Verizon is subsidizing the cost of the machine when you sign up for a one- or two-year commitment.

Bodyguardz Protects Your Handheld Gadgets--But is it the Best?

A few months ago, we put Zagg's invisibleSHIELD phone/product protector to the test, and were generally pleased with the results. We came across BodyGuardz from NLU Products, a very similar shield that sticks right to your device -- in our case, a smartphone. The BodyGuardz and invisibleSHIELD products, in fact, have so much in common that to read both reviews could lead to deja vu. But there are crucial differences.

Verizon Wireless' MiFi Changes the Game

Verizon Wireless' MiFi 2200 is branded as an "intelligent mobile hotspot." In other words, wherever you take the MiFi, you can bring the Internet with you, accessible via any Wi-Fi-enabled device.

iPhone 3GS Has Slew of New Features

If you've been thinking of buying an iPhone, the release of the iPhone 3G S makes it a lot easier to join Apple's telecom family. But if you already own an iPhone, deciding whether to buy this new model is a little more complicated.

60-Second Review: The Palm Pre

Beware the battery, but this is a fantastic phone. A must for any Sprint customer -- but how does it stack up to the iPhone?

Backing Up Couldn't Be Easier Easy With SanDisk Ultra Backup

Vicious malware. Faulty, exploding batteries. An unfortunate incident with an in-flight beverage service. Sure, if you're careful, these are unlikely. But any one of these could ruin your day by fritzing out your computer when you need it most. Say, on a business trip, when you are carrying crucial digital presentations in that laptop. Backing up your files used to be a laborious process. No longer. Just push that button on the SanDisk Ultra Backup.
