matrixpro 300x225 Pantech C820 Matrix Pro Review The new Pantech C820 Matrix Pro Pantech C820 Matrix Pro Review is an update to Pantech’s Matrix Duo, a Windows Mobile smartphone that sports both a numeric and QWERTY keypad. For those looking for a Windows Mobile device that packs in just about everything – the Pantech Matrix Pro C820 runs on AT&T’s speedy 3G network, it sports GPS, a 2 megapixel camera, and a solid feature set overall. Before I delve in to the device itself, here is a little background about my personal experience with Windows Mobile Smartphones. I’ve been using Windows on a handheld since way back – when there were no such things as smartphones at all, but instead there was just Windows CE and monochrome displays. I was extremely proud of my Compaq Aero at a time when Palm pilots were all the rage. Over the years I’ve owned a crazy assortment of Windows based smartphones, my most recent one being the Treo 750V. After that, the iPhone came out and I betrayed my longtime love of Windows Mobile. However, there will always be a part of me that still is a Windows Mobile girl at heart.

freeagenttheater 300x224 Seagate FreeAgent Theater HD Media Player Review

The FreeAgent Theater HD Media Player is a pretty unique product, and in some ways it’s the first of its kind. There are an assortment of multimedia hard drives out there that are designed to carry multimedia content like videos and music from your computer that will play on to your TV. However, with these types of products you are locked in to that specific hard drive. The FreeAgent Theater on the other hand is just a hub. In a way you can think of it as a DVD or VHS player with its own built in software that plays movies off of a medium. In this case, the medium’s format is actually the popular Seagate FreeAgent Go Harddrives.

Got a little free time on your hands? Feel like putting together a 35mm camera ( how retro!). The SuperHeadz Plamodel DIY 35mm flash-less camera, is a camera and art project all in one. Its pieces come all together on a big plastic frame that need to be pulled off. Like many toys we’ve all had at one time that required this, once separated you have to snap all the pieces together. Supposedly this little project will take a couple of hours to put together and you can mod the camera a bit to give it its own unique and special touch. The wide angle 28MM lens is a decent feature and the film will have to be developed the old fashioned way. The SuperHeadz Plamodel DIY 35mm retails for $28.00.
