Remember that Windows based “gaming tablet” that we saw at CES 2011? I do, I do! While the concept was decent, it lacked finesse or proper finish. Apparently in the FFC papers, we can tell that the Fiona now has its funny handles taken out of its final product and added as an accessory. Lets hope [...]

For those of you that are really into making short films, I have a treat for you! Action Movie FX app for iOS is sure to make the inner Michael Bay/J.J. Abrams scream with joy. The app is developed by none other than Bad Robot Interactive, J.J. Abrams production studio. Next up on the list [...]

I am not one for gamer centric devices. What I mean by this is I hate case lights, I despise ugly mice, and I cannot stand terribly designed hardware and finish. So naturally, coming into this review the Maurus had many points against it before I ripped open the packaging. The Scorpion on the Maurus was [...]

I was really curious when I heard Google Glasses were to be shown off during the Mercedes-Benz Spring Fashion Week in New York. My curiosity was met with a product that was as beautiful as the girls modeling them. The frames look sleek, light, and they look like something out of Mass Effect. The glasses were modeled at the [...]

Its been one hell of a week for mobile. Nokia stepped up to the plate and showed up the Nokia Lumia 920 and 820, sadly we did not get a word on release date. Our very own Chris Collazo goes in depth with his thoughts on the 920 and its hardware. Aaron Rowe from Technicove [...]

Who ever said “gaming cannot be done well on mobile” has clearly never come face to face with the Wikipad. Personally I don’t think I would have gone with the name “Wikipad”. I am not to sure that a gaming tablet would want to be associated with Wikipedia or Wikileaks. To each there own. Outside [...]

This week on The OS we go all in with the new devices out of IFA. I talk a bit about the hardware in the new Tablets, Convertibles  and Touchsreen Ultrabooks. Do they pack the punch that you need? I personally do not think so, but then again I am not the average consumer. Andy has all [...]
