Tuesday, I linked to a Dow Jones story on CNN’s Money Web site about a virtual teardown iSuppli did on T-Mobile’s fancy G1, the first commercial smartphone to run Google’s Android. Some readers had issues with the story, and I’m …

The iPhone is a great multimedia device, but it’s not perfect. One of the most glaring oversights for this music phone is the lack of stereo Bluetooth (A2DP) compatibility. As a result, you’re limited to clunky adapters or wired headsets if you …

While computers continue to get smaller, they’re constantly being pushed to do more. Whether they’re doubling as a phone, a camera, or an MP3 player, there seems to be no end to the tasks we expect them to carry out. And as always, we say we want them to “do all that stuff and be smaller.”
(Credit: IBM)A limitation of the miniaturization process is that the more computers are asked to do, the more memory they require. One of the computer’s basic elements, the transistor, could soon reach its miniaturization limit. The smaller we make transistors, the more susceptible they are to quantum phenomena like electrons tunneling through the barriers between wires. Which, while ticklish for the barrier, can just be really annoying.
This has apparently annoyed researchers at the U.K.’s University of Nottingham, as well, albeit for different reasons. This transistor dilemma has led them to look into the viability of carbon nanotubes to help create fast, cheap, and compact memory that uses little power.

(Credit: Razer)Razer is a gaming brand, and as such, it markets its Moray headphones as in-ear noise-isolating “gaming” earphones. And while there really isn’t anything that distinguishes them from other soft earbud-style headphones in their price class, they do indeed pair up quite nicely with the PSP, DS, …
Uniformity across the screen is one thing many flat-panel HDTV owners take for granted. Plasma TVs generally have perfect uniformity: the screen is the same brightness and the same color in all areas, and it looks the same from every angle. Most LCD sets, while less than perfect, have screens that are uniform enough to not distract from the viewing experience. Then there are models like the Haier HL47K.

This bargain-priced 47-inch LCD won’t wow anybody with its black levels or color accuracy, but for the money those aspects of its image quality are decent enough. Unfortunately, its screen uniformity is not. In our testing this set basically failed every aspect of our uniformity tests, suffering from brightness and color variation, backlight banding and poor-off-angle performance. To top it off, there’s even a stuck pixel!
On the plus side, the Haier is really cheap for a 47-inch 1080p HDTV, and its looks and connectivity aren’t bad at all. It also outperformed the dismal Honeywell we jut reviewed, so that’s something.
Check out the full review of the Haier HL47K.
