There have been a number of rumors recently as to what the Kindle 3 is going to be and when it is going to be out. This time last year there was a bunch of rumors about the “Kindle 3″, most of which involved a larger screen. As it turns out, that was the Kindle [...]

Review: StarCraft Ghost: Nova
Before you start, No, this is not the video game. I read StarCraft Ghost: Nova the book. It is supposed to give you some back story on the character “Nova” who was to be the heroine of StarCraft: Ghost (the video game). The book release was supposed to coincide with the game, but alas the [...]
Review: Flashforward (book)
This fall the new series “FlashForward” premiered on ABC. I’d seen the previews of it and thought it was an interesting concept. It didn’t catch my attention as a good concept for a TV show, but more from a “What if this were real?” scenario. What would you do if you saw the the future? [...]
Review: High Fidelity – Book and Film
Recently, I read High Fidelity on my Kindle. I had watched the movie a while back and remembered it fondly, so I decided to read it on my Kindle. After reading the book, I thought it seemed a bit different than what I recalled form the movie, so I netflixed it and watched it on [...]
Review: Heat Wave
For those of you living under a rock, the ever awesome Nathan Fillion (of Firefly fame) is back at it again. This time he plays “Richard Castle”, a novelist, on a TV series called Castle. As previously stated, Nathan Fillion is awesome, ergo, Castle is an awesome show. Well, props to ABC because not only [...]
Review: The Lost Symbol

The Lost Symbol once again features Robert Langdon, whom we first met in Angels & Demons and followed closely in The Da Vinci Code, which by the way was the correct order. The movie chronology has The Da Vinci Code occurring before Angels [...]
Review: Mass Effect: Revelation
Mass Effect: Revelation takes place before the video game. In it we mostly follow the adventurous David Anderson before he becomes Commander Shepard’s CO. There are a number of items inside the book that should remind readers of the game. For instance, in general when they mention someone’s weapon they mention the manufacturer (Alliance personnel [...]
Review: Storm Front (comic) by Jim Butcher
Earlier this week, my copy of Storm Front, Volume 1 – The Gathering Storm arrived. This is the comic book adaptation of a book written by Jim Butcher about 10 years ago (currently available in paperback as well as on the Kindle) and recently put into comic book form by the Dabel Brothers, the same [...]
Thoughts about the Kindle DX
So last Wednesday, the brand spanking new Kindle DX was released. As has now become usual (considering the 2 previous announcements of the Amazon Kindle), the “cat was out of the bag” before the show even started. Amazon doesn’t have nearly as good information control as Apple, or they realized that it drums up interest [...]
