IM ON DAT BLACK BERRY TORCH, SHOUT OUT TO MY DUDE JAY

DROID 2 R2-D2 version

I NEED THIS FOR MY COLLECTION When Verizon announced the new Motorola DROID 2 (which is available today!), they mentioned that there would be a special R2-D2 version of the DROID 2 hitting some time in September.  While we’ll have to wait to actually purchase the device, a photo of the DROID in the wild has leaked out for all to see.  Sure, it’s only the back of the device, but it’s better than nothing.  Besides, that’s likely the part that will most  closely resemble everyone’s favorite Artoo unit, anyway.  The R2-D2 DROID 2 will be previewed at Star Wars Celebration V, which starts today, so I’m sure we’ll be seeing much more of this little DROID very soon. Although it may not be big with the mainstream, Star Wars fans are a fervent bunch, and I’m sure the R2-D2 DROID 2 (that’s a mouthful) will fly off the virtual shelves when it hits next month.  The device will have the look of R2-D2 on the outside and will come packed with all kinds of exclusive Star Wars content preloaded onto the handset.

Samson Zoom H2 High Quality Sound Recorder Review

GREAT GIFT FOR THE WRITER IN YOU Samson Zoom H2 Handy Recorder, a voice and sound recorder that is of pretty professional quality, but does a lot of things your standard big box electronics store voice recorder won’t do. While the Zoom H2 is perfectly able to record personal voice memos and interviews, it is specifically made to record performances – both musical and vocal. It has a series of four microphones, and you can manually adjust the range of its pick up, both in angle and microphone sensitivity.
