But if you really want to know what it's like, you'd better take a gander at this series of videos T-Mobile has put out. They've been around for a while but we thought we'd just put them in one place for your convenience. I'll let them speak for themselves. No sense duplicating their content with a tedious explanation of each one.]]>

But if you really want to know what it’s like, you’d better take a gander at this series of videos T-Mobile has put out. They’ve been around for a while but we thought we’d just put them in one place for your convenience.

I’ll let them speak for themselves. No sense duplicating their content with a tedious explanation of each one. To proceed:

Lookin’ good, Google. Can’t wait to try this out at my own pace, without 500 people crowding around taking pictures.

It's quite cute and the iPhone UI is amazing. Check out our take, below. ]]> We’ve been excited about the Orbitix Sphero for a while now and we just got a little time to roll this odd little ball around CES.

Remember that video we posted earlier that was quickly taken down — but not before we took screenshots and put them on display. Turns out that was supposed to air just a few minutes ago as part of T-Mobile’s “G-Slate” promotion. Yes, it’s a T-Mobile tablet running Honeycomb.

Literally all that was shared is that it’s from T-Mobile, it’s 4G (though some may disagree with that term), and it runs Honeycomb. Yet they can make a 1000-word press release out of that. Talk about spinning straw into gold!

There was some interesting tech at Unveiled, but it's really about experiencing the lunacy that is every CES press event. Tortellini, drinks, booth jostling, and crowd noise are all I remember. Caution: lots of video windows inside. RAM use may skyrocket.]]>

Just can’t read that iPhone alarm clock from across the room? Check out the iPad alarm clocks, big enough to see from space.

Sometimes you just need to take a break and play with some sweet RC toys.


Blue Microphones. They’re blue, and they’re microphones. What more do you need to know?


Nicholas goes nuts over the Celestron connected telescope. Like astronomy? Want your kids to as well? Check this out.


Black & Decker shredders. I know, sounds boring, but these things were awesome. I can’t believe that big one is only a hundred bucks!


Technocel is an all-purpose emergency charge pack with adapters for most phones. We had a few dying iPhones in our midst, and these guys were a welcome sight.

Biggs relishes the company of female PR representatives.


All right. We’ll be live again in an hour or so. We’ll let you know.

We had a few minutes to talk with YouMail about their voicemail app for Blackberry, Android, and iOS. Youmail essentially replaces your voicemail service with one click and gives you rich graphical representations of your calls and stores them in the cloud. Take a gander at our brief interview.
