Posted: 10 Nov 2012 01:22 AM PST Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: Google Shopper has a nifty Shopping List, GoodGuide ratings for conscious consumers, and a convenient Sales page that aggregates nearby deals. Bad: The interface has a few quirks that aren't deal-breakers, but can get annoying. Bottom Line: Even with its minor imperfections, Google Shopper is a powerful app to have for comparison shopping and research, especially during the holidays. [Read more] |
Posted: 10 Nov 2012 12:43 AM PST Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: The LG Venice has a svelte design, a 1GHz CPU that runs swiftly and smoothly, and excellent call quality. Bad: The Venice's audio speaker is harsh and tinny, its camera's auto white balance is inaccurate, and it only runs on 3G. Bottom Line: Boost's LG Venice has respectable midrange specs including a snappy processor and a vivid screen, but if you want 4G data speeds, look elsewhere. [Read more] |
Posted: 09 Nov 2012 08:11 PM PST Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: The Dropcam HD WiFi is a Wi-Fi-enabled high-resolution Webcam with two-way sound capabilities. It offers easy setup and flexible mounting options, and you can view a remote video feed over the Internet or on your iOS or Android mobile device via free Dropcam apps. There's no service fee for basic live viewing. DVR functionality is available with a paid plan and recorded video is stored in the cloud. Bad: You can't tilt or swivel the camera remotely (the lens is fixed) and you may experience some lag with the video and audio, depending on the speed of your Internet service. The need for AC power precludes true wireless operation. Also, there's no native iPad app. Bottom Line: The wireless Dropcam HD Wi-Fi is an excellent choice for anyone seeking a light-duty Web-enabled remote security camera that emphasizes quick and easy setup.

Denon Globe Cruiser AH-NCW500 - headset Posted: 09 Nov 2012 06:15 PM PST Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: The Denon Globe Cruiser AH-NCW500 headphones stream audio and answer calls over Bluetooth. They're also comfortable and provide lots of bass. Bad: The Globe Cruisers are expensive, bulky, and have unimpressive audio and weak active noise canceling. Bottom Line: Noise canceling and Bluetooth help the $499.99 Denon Globe Cruiser AH-NCW500 stand out, but other devices sound much better and cost less. [Read more] |

Bottom Line: If you have a mobile device running Windows Phone version 7.5 or higher, then SkyDrive is a must-have. [Read more] |
