GoPro HD Motorsports HERO Camera is just what its supposed to be and more!

 

     I got the this camera a few weeks ago and I am SO glad I did. I have had NO problems with it whatsoever. It is extremely durable, completely waterproof, and the video quality is fantastic.


    Battery: I charged the camera ONCE when I got it and it lasted well over a week of playing around with. On a full charge, I was able to use it for an ENTIRE day of snowboarding and it barely used half of the battery.


    Lens: Yes, it does fisheye a bit due to the wide angle lens, but I personally like the look and it makes so much more visible to the frame.

    Mounts: Stuck one to a snowboard, one to my helmet and they haven't budged. The bolt it is tightened with just has to tight or the camera can rotate up or down. The suction mount is extremely strong and I bet it would hold at 100 mph.


    SD Card: I have a SanDisk 16 GB Class 6, and it works great. For some reason, the camera doesn't show up as a drive when plugged into the computer via USB, but I use a card reader so it hasn't been a problem.


    Navigation: This is about the only thing I could complain about. The waterproof case gives the buttons a bit more resistance, and as far as the unit itself, it navigates somewhat slowly (about 1.5 second response time after each button press). There are a ton of settings and options, though.


    Resolutions: The only ones I have used are 720x1280p at 60 fps, which is LIQUID smooth, and 1920x1080p, which looks beautiful (the more lighting there is, the better. On a sunny day, the footage is GORGEOUS. However, is low light situations, you can encounter grain, so be sure there is ample lighting to ensure high quality.

Dont forget to check out this awesome video.I believe I can fly!!!

Learn about disposable cellphones

Phone manufacturing company Hop-on Inc. had success at CTIA in Las Vegas with its revolutionary disposable cell-phone idea.Costing as low as 20$(12 euros) these phones use no LCD screen and can be thrown away or recycled after use.First rumors say that a European distributor got 10,000 copies of these phones for a test run.

The target group Hop-on Inc focus on is kids ,teens,seniors and  world travelers.But apart from that i believe the majority of their sales will come from people who value their anonymity.

The ipad craze

The first thing you notice about the iPad is, well, you don't really notice it. In many ways, there is just not much here -- design wise -- to comment on. The bulk of its surface is taken up by a 9.7-inch, 1024 x 768, capacitive, multitouch LED-backlit display surrounded by a glossy black bezel that some will say is too wide but, in practice, is an important design consideration that prevents the touchscreen from being inadvertently activated when handled. There's only Apple's signature "home" button to interact with, and the back of the device is a dutifully simple piece of curved aluminum. Like most Apple products, it's a beauty to behold, but it's not exactly notable for design flourishes; simply put, it's good looking but not terribly exciting. But if the design of the iPad is an exercise in restraint, it only serves to reinforce how formidable this technology feels once it's in your hands. The device has some heft, weighing in at 1.5 pounds, but is still comfortable to hang onto at most angles. Considering the computing power of the tablet, a thickness that tops out at half an inch is pretty impressive, too. But how does it feel in your hands? Well, that matte aluminum on the back surprisingly communicates warmth (though we don't recommend resting this on any bare flesh on a cold morning), and the rest of the design gets out of the way and lets you concentrate on what is really most important: that screen. And that's kind of the point, isn't it?

Get some for a change!

Let me present you a new trend in the market.The cent or penny auctions.But what these auctions are?Well they are auctions of stuff that start at 1c.Now there are some differences between some sites like that.For example there are the descending ones and the ascending ones.The descending ones are those in which the lower bid wins.For example if i bid 1$ and you bid 0.50$ and the auction time runs out you will win and get the item for 0.50$!Its a quite good concept that is catching up quickly.The main reason for that is for example the possibility to get an ipad  for 1$ which is awesome!As far as ascending auctions the most popular are ebay and amazon.The thing is that you dont really earn that much in those 2 as in most cases the price reaches the real price of the item.There are though sites where you cant bid more than 1c for example.That  way the price at the end of the auction is kept at very low levels.Its a great way of getting some expensive stuff you always wanted and all you need is a bit of luck .
