  • Amazon Kindle Fire

    Today, Amazon introduced the Kindle Fire tablet. I watched a few news reports and to summarize: The Kindle Fire is fast using a dual processor, it can run Android Apps but you gotta get them from Amazon (not a bad thing). One analyst says it is NOT an iPad killer since the Kindle Fire is…

  • Logitech Harmony 650 Remote

    Lori could not learn the process I had for watching a movie on the blu-ray or on VUDU. Geeez what is her problem?  Using a combination of three remotes, 27 button pushes, and moving one wire (just kidding)….it was easy! She wanted me to write the process down….well, I do not have time to write…

  • AT&T To Cap DSL Usage

    ` I was surfing this morning and came across this bit of disturbing news from the good folks at Mashable (and also at Broadband DSL Reports). AT&T will cap DSL users to 150GB (I assume Bytes…not bits) and Uverse users to 250GB per month.  If you go over that cap more than 3 times you…

  • VUDU Review 2

    Rating:  5 WaterTowers (still nearly perfect) After you are done here:  See my original review of VUDU. This weekend we recieved our new Vudu system.   As you may already know, we love Vudu and we used it for a long time before I actually had to remind Vudu that we had the demo unit.…

  • Wal-Mart Buys VUDU

    You may already know that I think the world of VUDU. Here is the most recent blog entry written after we received our very own VUDU box (yeah..that was before they were embedded in TV’s and Blu-Ray players…and way before Wal-Mart). I suppose you could say, I know how to pick ’em! Sure hope I…

  • VUDU Integrates Technology

      Rating:  5 WaterTowers (awesome integration of technologies in the home) What is VUDU? VUDU is a device that uses peer-to-peer video streaming to deliver high definition (or standard definition) movies to your TV via the Internet. As you may know from my previous posts on VUDU, I think it is one of the best technologies to come…

  • VUDU Price Reduced

    If you have not read my VUDU Review blog, now may be a good time.   The basic VUDU unit (good enuf for me) is now selling for $149.00.   Watching movies downloaded from the Internet has never been so easy and so enjoyable.  I gave VUDU 5 WaterTowers a year ago and only recently…

  • LG HDTV to Stream NetFlix Movies

      OK, here it comes.  The battle for streaming movies over the Internet has taken the turn that I have been waiting for. This article on CBS tells us that LG will embed a streaming player in HDTV sets.  No additional box will be needed.  How quickly this is happening! I have been covering this exciting…

  • Internet Movies and Blu Ray

    I’ve been thinking.   A very dangerous thing, I know.  But I was wondering how the likes of VUDU (see my review), AppleTV, the Blockbuster (see my blog entry) and NetFlix (see my blog entry)  streaming video players will effect (hmmm, is that right?  effect, affect?) the life of Blu-Ray.   A few weeks ago,…
