Phantom power is a legitimate cause to the increase in a power bill, and there are several companies that are trying to win your heart by killing power to units which continue to draw power even when off. Not sure if this is the best one as it has zero surge protection, but the good news is it works as […]
Read moreSome FANTASTIC news for Boxee fans all around, as they have quickly closed a Series B round of funding. The funding is impressive in this climate, but no doubt the investors saw the immense growth that Boxee has accomplished with such a small budget. This should guarantee the continuation and improvement for quite some time–which hopefully will result in more […]

They get some huge deals done, and then some bad announcements, and now are suing one of the bad announcement parties (Fox).

Redbox isn’t wasting any time with their positive news, this time locking up Lionsgate for five years, helping the movie rental kiosk company expand their collection even further. This next year is going to be interesting IMO, as bandwidth increases as do the number of kiosks, who will take over (or maintain) the lead–my guess is Netflix, yours? Home […]
