How Much Are You Really Paying for Your Smartphone?

168486-smartphonechart_2_original

Ever wonder why phone companies are able to sell you those purdy little smartphones for $199 and then impose a 2-year contract on you? Unbeknownst to many, the price of the phone is actually a down payment. The phone cost after 2 years amounts to thousands. If you own a smartphone, enlarge the photo to see how much you’ll end up paying at the end of your initial contract. If you plan on trading in that Nokia 2600 for a smartphone, scan the map and pick your poison.

Is This What an iPod Killer Looks Like?

Remember my iPod Touch? Well, I accidentally ran over it with my car. And once the G1 captured my heart last 7 months ago, I terminated my search for a new device.

Activision Helps America Find Its Inner DJ

djhero

Activision, the company that has brought us the Guitar Hero series, is trying its hand on something with a little more beat behind it. The company announced today that it plans on releasing a trio of new games: Guitar Hero 5, Band Hero and DJ Hero.

DJ Hero will play very similarly to Guitar Hero except instead of a guitar, players will use a turntable controller (pictured above) to mix their own versions of popular songs taken from the rap, R&B and electronica genres. I think you all know how the rest goes.

Activision, making playing a fake instrument even cooler than it already is.
