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
This week's trip into the land of wacky products has me sufficiently inspired enough to give in to my sudden uncontrollable craving and dig through my stash of "emergency" (don't ask) Hershey's Chocolate bars.

Product Review
People often come to me and Guy asking us if there is any way to get free music legally. It's a tough question to answer because it depends on what you're looking for. If you mean a place where you can legally download any song you want and then transfer it to any device you want (i.e. download Katy Perry's Teenage Dream and put it on your iPod), then the answer is pretty much "No." There are tons of options out there, like Pandora and Last.FM, that will let you stream a radio station of similar music to whatever you're looking for (even if it's as bad as Teenage Dream).
However, two new alternatives are popping up for the mobile community to give you more freedom over the songs you hear: MOG and Rdio.

Welcome to the greatest show on all the infinite earths. Thanks to you, our faithful five fans. This week sees the return of that beer drinking, laid back game-playing, flipper of birds, Yasar. Today we heard the news about the impending (
fingers crossed) release of a
Nike and
Apple combo sure to get your heart pumping for years to come. No really. I'm talking about the
Nike+ iPod heart rate monitor.
