With Sidekick G4, T-Mobile Casts Me Into Smartphone Replacement Purgatory
By Laura Northrup on April 23, 2012 9:00 AM  
Sara really loved her HTC G1 from T-Mobile, and bought the similar-ish Samsung Sidekick 4G as a replacement when its years of loyal service ended. The new phone has not been so loyal. It locks up, won't respond to the touchscreen, and periodically wipes its memory card for no clear reason. Sure, she could back up the memory card content elsewhere, but the non-operational phone is a real problem. Now she's on her third replacement. T-Mobile is happy to send her a replacement, but she doesn't want a fifth phone that will inevitably have the same problems. Sara, welcome to smartphone replacement purgatory! More »

While much of the buzz at any Consumer Electronics Show revolves around the sexier kids in school — TVs, computers, cell phones — there is a quiet rumble surrounding the impending release of a horde of "connected appliances," which is a blanket term for fridges, washers, dryers, dishwashers, stoves and ovens that communicate in some way with each other and maybe with the outside world.

Photos: Behind The Scenes At CES 2012
By Chris Morran on January 10, 2012 5:01 AM  
In a few hours, the folks at the Consumer Electronics Show will fling open the doors to the Las Vegas Convention Center and a crowd the size of a small city will begin gawking and toying with the latest in doodads and whatsthats. But for the second year in a row, me and my trusty camera phone were able to convince someone I had a reason to be on the show floor so I could snap a handful of last-minute preparation pics before anyone caught on to my antics.

Only Samsung Has The Power To Reinstall Windows On Your Laptop
By Laura Northrup on September 16, 2011 8:30 AM  
When the hard drive of Joseph's Samsung laptop began to make clicking noises, he thought it would be simple enough to make a backup image of his hard drive, install a shiny new solid-state drive, and put the backed-up image on his new drive. This didn't work, and he's stuck without Windows on his drive. Now he yearns for those long-ago days when computer manufacturers actually shipped copies of the software installed on computers with those computers. More »
