    FS: Netgear Alro Pro add on cameras

    I have 2 extra Arlo Pro cameras. The cameras come with a battery, magnetic mount, and mounting screw. The Alro Pro also work with the original Alro base station with support for 2 way audio. I'm asking $150 shipped for each camera or $280 for both shipped.

    BestBuy Black Friday Early Access Preview for Elite/Plus

    There is a 25% for 3 or more accessories. It seems when you add 3 or more accessories, you lose the early access BF price and get 25% off instead.

    Audi and nVidia

    I found the infotainment system on the Tesla to be laggy, which were running on the super dated Tegra 3. I would hope the new Tesla are using something like the K1 at minimum (X1 would be better).

    Sony's Xperia Z5 family includes the world's first 4K smartphone

    The new 5.5" 4k display should be huge for VR. Full coverage FOV VR with 1440p is still pretty pixelated.

    Apple Watch Drop Test - Sports Edition

    One reason I got the Apple Watch was because of the fitness functions. No, I won't be wearing a Rolex while mountain biking, but I'll probably wear my Apple Watch.

    Apple Watch Drop Test - Sports Edition

    First your statement is hyperbolic. Its probably under 500 times more likely to drop a phone than a watch. At minimum you handle the apple watch unstrapped twice a day (probably more if you shower), and most people probably pick up their phone under 100 times a day. Assume handling phone is...

    Apple Watch Drop Test - Sports Edition

    I'm pretty sure a plastic screen would have survive a fall without shattering. Must industrial applications still use some kind of plastic screen because they don't shatter. Watchs approved for manned space flights also use plastic screens. Now plastic isn't ideal for consumer devices because...

    is usb 3.1 coming to smartphones soon?

    I think your confusing lightning port (reversible plug) found on iOS devices with thunderbolt found on PC's and laptops. Lightning port is prosperity connector designed by Apple. Lightning still runs on USB 2 and has nothing to do with intel. Thunderbolt was develop by intel and apple...

    Hype about Apple Pay

    The tech behind the security is basically the same behind Google Wallet, ISIS, and Apple Pay. Hell, Apple isn't even handling the tokenization (This is done by the bank). Also, security of the NFC is same across since they all require a pin to activate. I'm pretty sure Apple Pay allows for a...

    Galaxy Note 4

    Some people were pointing out how the A7 (64-bit) in the iPhone 5S was superior to the A7 (32-bit) in the iPhone 5 and using it as an example of how 64-bit processor benefits performance... (I might be confusing forum members from other forums :confused:)

    Galaxy Note 4

    Assuming all else is the same, 64-bit processor has no advantage over a 32-bit processor for programs that don't take advantage of the extended 64-bit instruction set or extended addressable space. The reason the A7 had a huge performance gain over the A6 for 32-bit apps was because the A7 is...

    Livestream for GN 4

    Samsung claims the new S-Pen supports Tilt and Rotation! These features were only found in highest end Wacom devices! (Top of the line Intous and Cintiq) The addition of Tilt and Rotation is as significant as the pairing of a 3-axis gyroscope to 3-axis accelerometer! With Tilt and Rotation, it...

    I just uninstalled dota 2.

    I've lost countless number of mechanical keyboards and gaming mice to DotA, HON, and DotA 2 (omg the rage). I haven't played in like 6 months which my current keyboard and mice thank me for.

    Need One Plus One invite

    I have a one plus one 64GB that I purchased because I got an invite. I don't really plan on using it. It has been opened as I was curious what it looked and felt like (its basically brand new except I did tear the box tab a tiny bit while trying to open the box). I'll let it go for at cost plus...

    New Jailbreak available for 7.1.1 (and should work with upcoming 7.1.2 update)

    Personally i'm not a big fan of the Pangu team. They seem to be burning through all the exploits for quick short term gain. Further more, the exploits they''re using comes from other's.

    iPhone Air ( iPhone 6 ) September

    If Apple's A7 was just a A6 (cortex 15) with 64 bit instruction, there would be no performance increase. Going 64-bit is only useful when addressing memory or numbers greater than 32-bit. Do you realize that the A7 is based on ARM Cortex 53? Cortex 53 has more registers and some other...

    New Jailbreak available for 7.1.1 (and should work with upcoming 7.1.2 update)

    Evasi0n has a warning on its site that jailbreaking 7.0.x with updates will result in a boot loop. I got stuck in a boot loop on both my devices that had OTA updates, so I assume it was universally true. Yeah the Pangu seems more finicky to achieve. I'll try it later this weekend on my...

    New Jailbreak available for 7.1.1 (and should work with upcoming 7.1.2 update)

    The past jailbreaks DO NOT work with OTA updates!!! I'm guessing this jailbreak is probably no different. I found this out the hard way and software bricked my iPhone and iPad while trying to perform iOS 7.0 jailbreak. Here is the steps for those that did OTA updates (i.e. update through...

    ThinkPad Yoga owners? Review my $2,400 config

    Well the surface pro 3 has been announced. I would get the i7 version with Intel hd5000. The only thing that would be lacking is the keyboard. You can always get a Bluetooth keyboard for a dedicated typing at your desk/office.

    Windows alternative to the MacBook Air? (i.e. best ultrabook?)

    The i7 option of the surface pro 3 will have a Intel hd5000, but the price is hard to swallow.

    ThinkPad Yoga owners? Review my $2,400 config

    For $2400, I rather get a Fujitsu T904 with 2560x1440 13" screen. If you spec the Fujitsu T904 like the Thinkpad Yoga, its going to cost a bit more. However, the pre-configured unit with i5 and 8GB ram is only $2k.

    Where do you store the Surface Pro pen?

    I bought a bunch of cheap galaxy s-pens (they're wacom also) for $7 each, and I placed them everywhere. I got the s-pen with the eraser. The non-eraser version for the note phones are even cheaper...

    iPhone 5 Power Button Replacement Program

    Sucks that they're not doing a refurbished phone swap at retail stores. Instead, you have to wait a few business days for the phone to be repaired.

    Do all Ultrabooks suck or what?

    Uh there is an easy solution to that. Either set windows scaling to 200% (this will break some legacy programs) or set your resolution at 1600x900 (perfect halving so it will look just like a 1600x900 without scaling artifacts)

    inexpensive laptop for kids school work.

    How about a factory refurbished Surface Pro 128GB for $500 (has 1 year Microsoft warranty). http://www.ebay.com/itm/Microsoft-Surface-Pro-with-128GB-Memory-/181350427315?pt=US_Tablets&hash=item2a3953eab3 If your kid doesn't need 128GB, I think the 64GB version is only $400.

    How much data do you use?

    I document a lot of things with photos and videos on my travels. I have the photos and videos uploaded to 4 different cloud services. I also do a lot of remote video monitoring, which can eat up tons of data on long sessions. My average monthly data usage is around 25-30GB.

    Surface Pro 128gb (First Gen) $500 at Bestbuy

    I really wish Wacom stop being so protective of their Cintiq line and allow licensing of their full ditigizer technology to monitor and tablet manufactures. I would love for the surface 3 to support pen rotation and tilt. These features are not only great for artist, but will allow for much...

    Hahaha, this game brings back the memories

    Its not ghost warping around. Most like the original program can only render one ghost at a time, so the render cycles through rendering one ghost at a time for each frame. As the 4 ghosts move apart, it gives the illusion that the ghost is randomly warping around.

    Ipad Air and PDF editing using a pen

    Surface Pro 128GB Gen1 is now only $500 :eek: Compare to an iPad at $500, the Surface Pro is a no brainer. Full laptop hardware and software, full HD resolution, and Wacom digitizer. Just get a Surface Pro. You can probably make it an hackintosh if you really want to stay in the Apple camp.

    Lumia 1320. Anyone jump on it?

    The 1520 was like $450 at the Microsoft Store during the holidays, so I'm working from that price. From that price point, the 1320 is terrible.

    If Apple moves up to a 4.7+ screen, they need to drop their non-standard resolution and go with 1080p.

    ASUS Announces ROG SWIFT PG278Q Premium Gaming Monitor

    G-sync is freaking great! for those that can't hit their monitor refresh rates (typically 60Hz). G-sync will slightly reduce your input lag and completely eliminate all tearing!!! There is no downsides to G-sync style screen updates. (Down sides are strictly political i.e. it is not a standard...
