HTC One Australian Review: You’re The One That I Want
HTC has done more for Australia than you realise. It was the first big manufacturer to introduce Android into the country via a major telco, and went on to make some incredible gear.

Enter the HTC One: the saviour, the hero, the new yardstick.
Razer Edge Review: So Heavy, So Expensive, So Awesome
A gaming laptop in a tablet. It’s a thought experiment that raises a whole host of questions: Is that even possible? Can it possibly be good? Would anyone even want it if it were?

Dogboarding Is What It Sounds Like

Romulan Ale Energy Drink Is Neither Romulan Nor Ale
I have a bottle of real Romulan Ale (the novelty beer they sold at the Star Trek experience in Vegas before it went under again), but this Romulan Ale seems interesting.
