It's official: the
HP TouchPad is dead. Wait, what? Didn't
HP launch its much-ballyhooed
iPad competitor just last month? And didn't I
review it just a few weeks ago? There must be some mistake.

Freebies
If you buy a CD, you're allowed to copy the songs from that CD to your
iPod or other
MP3 player. So it stands to reason that if you buy a DVD, you should be able to copy the movie to your phone, tablet, or other portable player.
Alas, it's not that simple. Most
DVDs are copy-protected, meaning you need special software to work around Hollywood's annoying restriction. And it's not uncommon for a "DVD ripper" to sell for as much as $50.

Suck on this!
No wait--don't! These little suckers may look delicious and crunchy and they may fool you by coming in "flavors" like cherry, lemon, blueberry, orange, and green apple, but you can't eat them. Or I guess you could, but you probably wouldn't like the taste. Unless you like eating electronics, in which case maybe you shouldn't be reading about lollipop-shaped speakers in the first place...

Stuff We Like
