Every now and then I have been checking back with Amazon to see if they were selling the Wacom Inkling.  Well it appears that Amazon is indeed selling it.  From what I can gather Amazon is selling out of them every time they get some in stock.   I never signed up to be alerted when they were getting them in, so I just assumed someone was amiss.  That has since been corrected.

Trying out Rhapsody

After a lot of back and forth I have decided to try out Rhapsody music service.  I signed up for it yesterday, but so far I am finding it to be quit excellent.  The range of music available is quite good.  Although I am surprised to find that it is missing the first album of a one of my favorite bands.  It may not be their fault as music rights are a pain in the butt at times.

Steve Jobs once something to the effect that if you device needs a stylus you are doing it wrong.  I think that this iPen concept shows just how wrong he was.  If gets made I will consider getting one.

The DirecTV HD GUI update

Within the last week or two DirecTV released their new HD GUI update to their branded DVR’s.  For the most part the update is pretty nice, but there are a few annoyances.  For instance I don’t like what happens when you hit the menu button.  Another annoyance is it takes one more button press to get to the shows I have already recorded.  I hope that they put out some tweaks soon.

They really made a Three Stooge movie

Apparently there is going to be an actual Three Stooges movie.  I had hoped for some sort of bio pic, but sadly it is an actually comedy abomination.  I really don’t want this to see the light of day.  I am hoping the families of the original stooges are getting money out of this.

Sometime this week HP announced that they were going to turn webOS into an open source project.  I must say that I am pleased by this.  As cool as that is I am thinking that there could be some things that end up killing this idea.  Only time will tell.

There is a leak of the title sequence of the next Avatar cartoon out on the net.  I really didn’t know what to expect, but I am little disappointed by it.  I hope that the new series is as good as its predecessor.

More Carrier IQ crap

There has been a lot of articles Carrier IQ in the last few days.  The people who make it say there is no threat to the user’s privacy.  I have my doubts, but what else do you expect them to say.
