		<description><![CDATA[At CES this year, 4K video arrived.  All 3 pieces of the puzzle seem to be falling into the realm of possibility for most Americans: content creation, delivery, and consumption.  On the creation side, quality cameras should hit the sub-$2000 price range this year.  On delivery, Netflix is going to start streaming select content such [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently purchased the Canon S95, a relatively high-end pocketable digital camera that was recently on sale for a price too good to pass up.  My experience with it so far has challenged my previous views on photography and led me to a better understanding of what makes a photo “good.”
I’ve had point-and-shoots before (a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My week-long honeymoon in Vail ended up being a pretty good test of how much of a computer I really need to get by.&#160; As it turns out, my year-old Toshiba T135-S1305 fits the bill admirably, and it cost me less than $500 new.
Besides my phone and Kindle, this laptop was all I brought to [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve long been a believer that a Home Theater PC (HTPC) is the best and most economical way to build [...]]]></description>

A long-time Windows user and general detractor of Apple and their expensive, controlled approach to computing, I couldn&#8217;t resist all those quality iOS apps any longer.  I bought (well, technically, my wife bought as a wedding present&#8230;thanks honey!) an iPad 2 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Although it may seem like it, I don&#8217;t hate Apple.  True, nearly every piece of electronics I own run a Microsoft OS (all 3 PCs, my phone and my MP3 player).  But the reason isn&#8217;t that I don&#8217;t like shiny objects or that I love getting certain UI innovations after everyone else.  No, I&#8217;ve stuck [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Arg.  After initially getting excited about Windows Phone 7 when it was revealed a few months ago, after learning more about the OS itself I&#8217;m getting disappointed.  It&#8217;s really not looking to be anything more than Microsoft&#8217;s attempt at an iPhone, which is not what I was hoping for.
I have a thing about personalization.  I [...]]]></description>
