 The implications of humanoid robots as laborsaving devices are more ominous than most people realizeBy Mike Adams, August 22 2006
In the not-too-distant future, artificial intelligence will advance to the point where robots can perform useful functions in our everyday lives. But it's not just artificial intelligence that needs to advance in order to enable useful humanoid robots; we also need major advancements in portable power, vision recognition, touch sensing, and even muscle control.
Language detection capabilities are also desperately needed before we will see useful robots, but assuming that these technical hurdles...
 Amazon.com's extraordinary emphasis on the user experience drives their continued successBy Mike Adams, August 18 2006
I love shopping with Amazon.com. Do you know why this pioneering online retailer is still in business and still doing great? They place such a heavy emphasis on the user experience. They get it right and they understand e-commerce. Many times -- even when I see a product in someone else's catalog or on another website -- I'll leave and go to Amazon.com to see if it exists there first, because I know that if I place the order with Amazon.com, it's going to be shipped on time and I'm going to be able...
 Review of Sony DVDirect: A standalone DVD burner and video capture device that works flawlesslyBy Mike Adams, August 7 2006
With all the video content consumers are creating today, there is a need for a device that will burn DVDs in real time from a video feed. Ideally it would be stand-alone so it does not require a personal computer for ripping or capturing video and then burning it to DVD. Sony has come out with such a device called the Sony DVDirect Stand-Alone DVD Burner. Priced at a little over $200 retail, this device allows you to feed it a video and audio stream, which is then burned to DVD in real time.

 Neuros MPEG4 Recorder does what it promises to do well, but there's room for improvementBy Mike Adams, July 3 2006
If you own a PlayStation Portable (PSP), or any other personal portable media device, you've probably discovered that one of the main challenges is finding a way to get video onto the device. How do you rip your movie collection, for example, to a format that can play on the PSP?
The PSP is a really capable portable movie player. It's not just a gaming machine -- although it's very good for games -- it's also a great way to watch videos when you are away from your home entertainment system. You...
 Remote backup reviews: XDrive, Box.Net fail to provide reliable remote storage solutionsBy Mike Adams, June 21 2006
As the market for remote backup solutions continues to expand, I thought I'd take a test drive of two of the most popular solutions: XDrive and Box.net. Sadly, neither service worked for me, and both appear to be buggy and severely lacking in several important areas. Here, I take a quick look at what's wrong with XDrive (www.XDrive.com) and Box.net (www.Box.net).
XDrive promises to mount a virtual drive to your PC, allowing you to copy and paste files to that drive just like any other storage...
 PlusDeck2 cassette tape converter has solid hardware, but weak software that fails to performBy Mike Adams, June 16 2006
This is a review about the PlusDeck2 PC cassette deck recorder. It is a tape converter that combines hardware with software to convert cassette tapes to MP3 files on your PC. It sounds like a promising combination. For those of us who have a lot of cassette tapes, this kind of one-step conversion sounds like it could be very handy. Unfortunately, as you'll learn in this review, the product doesn't deliver as promised, and it turns out to be a product that I would not recommend. I ultimately returned...
 The iRiver PMP-100 series: A product with the typical strengths and weaknesses of Korean technologyBy Mike Adams, June 5 2006
With portable video increasing in popularity, more people are looking at portable video players, sometimes called PVPs. They may also be referred to as a portable media players or PMP's. This review is about the iRiver PMP-100 series, which includes the PMP-100, PMP-120 and the PMP-140.
Like a lot of hardware from Korean companies, this product has great hardware but terrible user navigation, atrocious support and extremely poor software. The PMP-120, which is the unit I reviewed, definitely earns...
