People have been complaining about the iPhones touchy on-screen keyboard since day one. 'Its too cramped and small" "its too sensitive" "its innacurate" and so on and so forth.

Many people I know have gotten used to the keyboard, especially with the landscape mode, but some still cant get the hang of it.

Well, now you are in luck! The new iTwinge keyboard from Mobile Mechatronics. It is a simple plug n' play keyboard that your iPhone just slips into and off you go! It gives the feedback and feel of a real keyboard, and also is small and not external "Like we thought it was going to be" but even cooler, it attaches to the phone! It looks like it has no need for technical parts because it acts like your fingers, touching the buttons itself.

Even cooler, it starts at just $29.99! and its available on September 16th.

Will you get one? Why? leave a comment!

Zune HD out now - Hands on demo, and list of features

The Zune HD holds the key to Microsofts success in the MP3, and portable media device market. If they screw this up, its all over.

But things are looking good! The Zune HD is looking to be a stable, usable and reasonably priced device which has a very good chance at competing with Apple's iPod touch.

Since giving up on the 30, 80 and 120 GB Zunes, Microsoft's focus is concentrated on the success of the Zune HD.

By the way, it has a beautifle OLED screen, Nvidia chipset, Wireless syncing, HD video output and more.

Zune HD customization is here and its cool

I don't think apple saw this one coming, and neither did I! This is unbelievable, and I made this Zune by the way.

This just goes to show, the steps Microsoft are taking to prove that apple isn't the only ones with a good Media device, are paying off. I mean look at this thing.

Its beautiful and it was so easy to make. The Microsoft website lets you take any old Zune HD and turn it into a unique piece of art. But don't get me wrong, even the Zune HD on its own without any customization is still way cooler looking than an iPod touch.

So try it out and make a wicked Zune HD, and you can even engrave it too!

+10 points for Microsoft

iTwin - the Cableless Cable

The iTwin is something that intrigues me greatly. I have multiple computers and sharing between them is very important, but I've yet to find a perfect solution for this task. You take one half and put it into Computer A, take the other half and insert it into Computer B. Now, with an internet connection enabled on both you can now share files with a simple copy pasta. As their site calls it: "It is like the two ends of a cable, but without the actual cable."

The first in-the-wild shots of the upcoming HTC Leo jesus-phone have emerged, and it’s shaping up to be a monster.  The Leo packs a vast 4.3-inch touchscreen, Windows Mobile 6.5 and a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU. Onboard memory amounts to 320MB of RAM and 512MB of ROM, with a microSD slot.

That phone is 2X more powerful than the computers that they used to render the CGI in Starwars episode III.

It will also have a 5 Mega pixle camera with Flash! Yes flash, LED flash to be exact! We will have to wait a little longer to see this thing in the wild, but for now we can dream!

Zune HD Release is Tomorrow - Hands on video, and specs.

We have all waited in antisipation to see, if in fact, the Zune HD is all it is cracked up to be. I know I am exited and soon, once the T3ch H3lp blog gets bigger, and more popular, we will have more hands on reviews from manufacturers such as Apple, Microsoft and Palm, maybe.

Here are some quick Specs [...]

Apple iPod Touch was going to have a Camera, they cut it out.

This prototype iPod Touch indeed has a camera, and I like it. But it didn't make it to store shelves and into your pocket.
