In a private event leading up to tonight’s keynote at CES, Microsoft announced something that may forever change the way we think of Windows computing: the next version of Windows, codenamed Windows.NEXT, will be compatible with ARM’s processors. For those of you who don’t know, ARM processors power devices like smartphones and media tablets and use much less [...]

If you’re headed to CES this year (don’t forget, we are) or you’re just a Vegas local with a poor sense of direction, Navigon’s released a free app that may put an end to your navigation woes.

Have you ever longed to use your beloved phone or perhaps your iPod in the shower? Maybe you’ve been dying for your Glee fixation while you swim laps in the pool? Although, I’ve never had such desires (I swear!), a number of my friends and colleagues have. And of course, that’s where we run into a bit [...]

Hey TechTrackr following,

As I’m sure many of you already know, the concept is rather simple: take out your phone, launch the Shazam app, and in a matter of seconds (literally ten to fifteen), [...]

A company in China has recently introduced the Up! 3D Personal Portable Printer. The pricetag? A mere $1500. Yes, $1500– now, although the price seems astronomically high, it’s (if you can believe it)  much more affordable than its predecessors.
The printer uses successive layers of molten polymer to build 3D objects that are sent from a computer. Due to [...]

With all of the outsourcing these days *cough, cough DELL*, great tech customer support is often hard to come by. This past week, I had an unusually positive experience that I thought I’d share with all of you.
