I’ve been asked why I give so many kudos to HP about their stuff and one of the main reasons is because they actually go out of their way, and are extremely flexible about showing you the ‘ins and the outs’ of all of their products. They’re really great people to work with (& hang out with – check out the pic below).

Hello CuteGeek readers this is my first post and I’m excited that it includes a video of me! I was able to check out the DreamScreen from HP a new wireless media streamer that will stream short videos, music and let you view pictures on your network or stored on your device. It’s a mix between a clock radio, digital picture frame and computer! Check out my video below.

I have been a fan of Dr. Dre since I was 10 years old and I had to post this press release from HP about the Envy 13 that has Beat’s by Dr. Dre.

Yeah yeah I know this isn’t a new product but I love my HP Ipaq 910 Business Messenger! Actually after seeing my friend throw a fit the entire weekend and threatening to throw a phone out the window (will not mention brand but its apparently everything but a phone); I sat there content with my phone. Yes my phone may have minor problems like its not loud enough over my hip hop music and that may be a user error. Also, call me crazy but I kinda like listening to my ringer and tend to miss calls while looking at my phone dancing along to the ring tone. I also do this in my condo’s elevators and have a good idea that security is cracking up at me.

I received the HP Photosmart A826 and frankly I was curious; it was so light weight…what could it be?! Taa- Daa! A PRINTER!!! Now photo printers are like Christmas to me b/c I love taking pics and making cards.
When I unboxed the product (see super cheesy unboxing*) I immediately starting singing “Meet George Jetson…dododododododo…his boy Elroy…daughter Judy.” The product seemed very futuristic with nice lines and a 7 inch TOUCH SCREEN! I am in love with touch screens so anything with this feature makes me happy!

As everyone knows who reads this blog (um anyone?!) my PC has been on the decline as posted this week. Well yesterday after pounding away for my day job my PC froze. Now this happens about 5 times a day but this time after several reboots alas it’s on its last leg. As of now my pc is running as though it’s a turtle on muscle relaxers…and I am now regretting my little minor fit I threw at CES but we can’t go back in time!
All of my friends are telling me to get an Apple Mac; small problem I have never even used an Apple unless the Oregon trail game counts from elementary school in the mid 80′s. So I am wondering how much time will I spend looking at it baffled and confused. I then have had several folks reccommend HP DV2 which is also cool but I work more then 10 hours on my PC and I am blind (try 100 x 100 vision) so I need something bigger then 13 inches and smaller then 15 inches. Ironically only one person has told me to get a Dell or a Lenovo; with so many different brands out there the most reccommended are Apple and HP.
Basically I am still clueless on what to get…HELP geeks and cutegeeks! So EVERYONE Vote by clicking on the Vote button!
I am a hot mess without my PC:-(

It all started at CES this year. There I am in front of the hotel after 3 days of CES boondoggles and I had this jerk of a bell hop making me wait an hour for a car that I clearly could see was not being used.
So after being told I should just walk my tootsies down the 3 mile strip; I blew up on him.
Unbelievable! I mean I was in 4 inch heals and seriously what happened to the customer is always right?! So after an hour of waiting plus a theatrical display of dissatisfaction…I threw my tote down. Accident #1!

As the Editor in Chief, I was tasked with reading over all of our product reviews that were eligible for our Editor’s Choice Award, and I had to pick a winner.
Only one product per month is eligible to win our Editor’s Choice award. Only two products were eligible this month, the Sony Webbie HD camera, and the HP Mini Vivienne Tam Edition (after all we are a new site).

New Jersey shoppers are in for a month long treat, according to the latest collaboration to hit the news. HP and TEEN VOGUE have teamed up to combine the latest fashions trends, styles and technology at its TEEN VOGUE Haute Spot concept store.
The industry has finally realized that technology has now become one of the hottest accessories women wear. Similar to the description (in the press release) regarding the choice of technology chosen by HP, women have also fused fashion, form and function in their daily lives. The collaboration will work towards using fashion-forward technology as a driver in their store.

I have toted the wonderful HP mini VT edition Netbook for the last month or so and in the month it has probably traveled more than most Americans. It ventured to Dallas, to Puerto Rico, back to Dallas, to Orlando, back to Dallas, then back to NYC, back to Dallas one more time, and the last stop was NYC before heading back to the lovely offices of HP’s PR firm.
It sat in my apartment for 2 weeks before I actually unboxed it, and this wasn’t because I didn’t want to play with it – it was because I was out for the count with the flu and bronchitis. Looking back I should’ve taken advantage of it, because I was literally in bed for those two full weeks, but then again who would’ve watched all that reality television on VH1.
I have been busy fund raising for the CCFA walk in San Francisco 6/9 and became a team captain. This is why I heart the iPhone 4; I have a funding raising tool app for my walk Team Nina’s Nincompoops through the Take Steps mobile app. It keeps me updated and organized for the walk! [...]
