MINT SPEAKERS

Mint Speakers are an ipod music banging sound system, which takes up less space on your desk, and are very inexpensive. I was given this tiny box shaped speaker for christmas and was surprised to find out that it came with a wireless adapter that you could connect to a desktop or laptop( no need for drivers or what not) just plug and play. Cool, but i had these logitech speakers just hanging around on my desk{ great sound, but I was getting sick of the wires hanging from the top} I took down the big logitech speakers and hooked up the mint wireless speakers and the sound was pretty good.  Good to past on for a ipod speaker system and included a line in outlet to the T.V { which sounds great if your watching a movie and your tv is next to your speaker} Overall mint speakers are really cool and a great buy to getting a clean desk.

Xbox 360 Wireless Headset - Review

     I recently picked up the Wireless Headset for the Xbox 360 due to my two wired headsets being broken, at first I was a little cautious about getting it after reading a few review dotted around Amazon and places of such. However I decided just to go for it, the wireless headset obviously provides you with the ‘wireless’ feature, which I’m sure a lot of you love – so now feel I’ve used it enough to provide a respectable, honest review on it. The unit itself is rather compact, it has the ear piece and the microphone, which is just a few inches long - rather than the long flexible wired version, the ear piece has 3 buttons located on the side; The up and down volume keys and the on/off and mute button.

      Upon first opening the Wireless Headset it’s going to need a good charge. It comes with a recharge cable, which connects, to the Xbox 360 via USB; the charging port is located at one end of the Headset. The headset comes with 2 earpiece fixtures a small and medium. I used the small as the medium is rather generous, when first adjusting the headset to your comfort zone it is a little awkward, in a sense that it feels like it will fall off, at first I felt I had put it on the wrong way, the headset it made to fit your right ear, it feels strange when on your left. The microphone comes a little down your face, well away from your mouth - you may think that this will make your audio very poor, but doesn’t. When fully charged the Headset will last a good couple of days. The audio that comes through the earpiece is very impressive, its clear and the volume controls make it more than easy to get the headset to a comfortable audio quality. One thing that I do find a little difficult and getting used to is the mute, on the wired headset it is very simple to mute and un-mute the headset by a flick of a switch located on the controller, however on the Wireless headset the mute button is on the center of the ear piece this is really annoying if your in a intense active game you will find muting the mic most annoying.

     When using the headset for a long period of time - in which I mean ‘without’ a break, you feel weird feeling in your ear, kind of like mild ear ache, not sure what that is all about but it is not enough to make you stop using it - just a slight feeling. When syncing the headset to your controller you have to press the sync button on the headset and the Xbox 360 - not the controller that was the mistake I made, when you do that it will sync to the first free controller.

     Overall this headset is really good if you like your equipment wireless - it tidies up your gaming experience, its also good if you’re the type of gamer that likes to talk without muting. The price is a little expensive for what you get but seems okay, as I’ve bought two wired headsets that add up to one wireless. If your doubting on whether to get one just go for it, it’s a good little gadget.

Microsoft Dream Machine

      What is the best way to fix the ill fated Zune “iPod killer”? Let’s start with cramming a mobile phone in it, then while you are stuffing it full of dreams, wishes and pixie dust, let’s shove in a mini-XBOX. Now we can take all three of those features, wave a magic wand, say “gibbidy gobbidy goop” and click our heels three times and we get nothing at all like this most excellent render from the fine folks at T3 magazine. One can only dream someone in Redmond reads T3…or at least iConcept.
