Of coarse be sure to read the date when you read this because all 500GB hard drives might be this price by then but $69.99 for a 500 GB Seagate is phenomenal. This is the cheapest price for a hard drive I have ever seen. Go to ZipZoomFly.com As usual, Seagate helps us out by driving the base cost of gigs per dollar down in hard drives.

Just goes to show, when I buy technology, the new model is on it’s way. Just over 30 days ago I purchased a MacBook Pro and now Apple is selling MacBooks with more Hard drive space, updated processors, and with the new touch interface. That is right! The new MacBook Pros come with the Touch interface that is the main selling part of the MacBook Air. Well, to me it is since I think the MacBook Air is pretty useless with no expandability.

Also updated: The MacBook with no touch but bigger hard drive and faster processors. There was a firmware update to the iPhone that so far from what I can tell is just for bugs and a 2GB Shuffle is available.

I reported yesterday about all the cell carriers offering unlimited calling plans. Engadget now reports that Sprint may offer $60 unlimited plans. Wow! Get the link here.

If you talk too much on your cell and suffer from horribly huge cell phone bills, it is time to update. Just about, wait… All major cell phone companies are now offering or will offer an all you can eat (that means unlimited) cell phone plan. Helio, Sprint, Verizon, AT&T and now T-Mobile are not offering unlimited voice plans for $99.99. Some include text and some don’t but you can get unlimited data and text with most of these plans.

If your cell phone bill is over $100 a month for voice, go to your local cell phone company store or call and update to the unlimited plan.

Finally, the 1 TB drives are coming down in price. I just Found a SATA 300, 32 MB buffer, 1 TB drive for $235.

Hurry, limited time only! http://shop2.outpost.com/product/5478279 

Personally, Im waiting to se $210 prices but this is still a really good deal.

I have on just about every gadget I can get one for, a silicon protective case. Seriously, using them on my iPhone, Nano, iPod, Digital Camera, and more I am a firm believer of a silicon protective cases. A silicon case is a great and cheap way to protect your electronics. Silicon cases contour to your device, protect it from scratches, helps when you drop your gadget, and it still keeps the profile of your device without making it too much bigger. My most favorite thing about silicon cases is you can use your gadget with the case on. You don’t have to waste time taking your device in and out of a case. I don’t spend the money it costs in retail stores but I do pick them up online. For example, an iPhone silicon case costs around $20 or $30 from Apple but the same exact thing can be purchased on ebay for $8 and it comes with a screen protector.
