Virgin Mobile Kyocera Loft Phone review

I was really suprised that Virgin Mobile have a plan for $30 per month for 1500 anytime minutes with 1500 text and 500 MB.  All of this for $30.00 per month.  It might just work for me.  I'll see how it goes for this first month.  It looks like a Black Berry.  It has a full keyboard so you can text your heart out.  It only cost me $49.00 brand new at Walmart.com

If you have a teenager, I think this phone and plan is perfect.  $30.00 per month is not bad. 

Anyway check out my video review of this phone.

Irobot 7" PC Tablet

I purchased this Irobot 7" PC tablet from ebay in the beginning of this year.  I've done a review on it and wanted to do a bit of comparison from the Barnes and Nobles Nook ereader.  Watch the video for my review.



The Good

1. The price is only $120.00
2. 7" inch
3. Full Color
4. It has speaker
5. It takes pictures and video (yes it has a camera)
6. It plays music - all kinds
7. It plays videos - most kinds
8. It reads PDF documents and others
9. It has installed apps
10. Expandable Memory SD card slot
11. It has a gadget that allows you to attached USB device.  I've attached and read some of my USB discs
12. Head phone jack

The Bad

1. You need an Android Phone to download Android apps for it
2. No page turner like other e-reader ( I guess because its more than an e-reader)
3. Battery life sucks (I might have to find a new battery for it)

This would have been the ideal tablet of the Millennium if the battery life was decent.

How Nook - Barnes and Noble Simple Touch Reader - handles PDF files

The all new Barnes and Noble Simple Touch Reader - Nook handles PDF files. 

The Good:

1. It has expandable memory - so you can load up all of your PDF on one e-reader. 
2. the page turner are amazing.  Just slide your thumb left or right and the page turns
3. It has search capability
4. It has bookmark capability
5. The screen looks sharps and clean

The Bad:

1. Can't rotate screen for better viewing
2. Can't zoom PDF files -  My PDF are old books scanned and converted into PDF.  So they are really a whole bunch of JPEGs and then combined together to form each book.  -  and Nook can't zoom to the pages.
