Sony’s Crackle comes to the iPhone/iPad with less crappy content than you’d think

I loves me my Slingbox, I loves me my Netflix, and I kinda like the ESPN Watch app, but that doesn’t mean there’s not any room left in my heart for one more streaming video app, especially one that streams the fantastic Married with Children episode “Rock and Roll Girl” featuring a super slutty “Kelly” (above) that a young Dr. Macenstein would often think of on those long, cold, lonely nights. So go out and download SONY’s free Crackle... Read More

64 GB White iPhone running iOS 5 with Expose-like Multitasking

It looks like Vietnam might be Apple’s “Vietnam” when it comes to plugging leaks on upcoming iPhones. Once again, the site Tinhte is back, showing off some new (alleged) iOS 5 features, running on a 64 GB (FINALLY!) white iPhone4. I love how all these iPhone leak videos appear to be taken in a laundromat or outdoor restaurant. It feels like if the guy working the camera panned around the room we’d see someone buying Uranium and a Panda. Unfortunately... Read More

Review: PhoneSuit’s 8200mAh Primo Power Core

As any true iPhone power-user knows (a “power-user” being defined as any iPhone user who owns both Angry Birds and Tiny Wings), having an extra battery’s worth of juice these days is a must. And where having ONE extra battery’s worth of juice is good, as you can imagine, having FIVE battery charges is just awesome. Enter the 8200mAh Primo Power Core from PhoneSuit. The PowerSuit is an external power supply along the lines of the Zagg Sparq, in that it... Read More

Enter to WIN: A set of Audioengine A2 speakers!

Thank you, we have a winner. This contest is closed. Congrats to faithful Macenstein reader Jason! Just the speakers. 2008 iMac not included. Who like’s winning $200 speakers? Anyone? No? OK, I guess I’ll just have to keep these sweet Audioengine A2’s. It’s a shame, really, because I already have a pair, and they rock. Perhaps you remember my awesome YouTube video (below) of how their deceivingly powerful bass could blow down TWO of the Three Little (Canadian)... Read More

1 in 5 iPhone users are broke

You might think with the iPhone being a tad on the expensive side, not to mention all the monthly data fees and weekly app purchases, that iPhone users would be positively rolling in cash, but according to a recent UK poll, 1/5th of iPhone users surveyed have literally FIGURATIVELY sold their souls to get their hands on the device. But almost one in five owners of the must-have phone admit that their main bank account is always overdrawn. This is around double the national... Read More

Games That Don’t Suck: Great Little War Game (Who knew war could be so adorable?)

GAMES THAT DON’T SUCK is a feature dedicated to games that I think are well worth your hard earned money, but not worth me sitting down and spending 3 hours crafting an in-depth review (these things are usually 99¢ after all). However, you can rest assured that any game bearing Macenstein’s GTDS rating is worth buying, sight unseen, based solely on my expert opinion. And out of all the games that haven’t sucked thus far, Great Little War Game REALLY doesn’t... Read More
