Deal of the Day - 5/17/12

Hello All,

First off, happy birthday to Erik Odden and Brian Giegerich today.  33 is a cruel mistress.  Now on to the good stuff. 

NewEgg is selling a refurbished Logitech Revue for $74 shipped to your door.  It does a lot of cool things, Youtube, Netflix, Pandora, web browsing, Google App store, etc.  But the thing that I am excited about is you can also use it as a SlingBox for free.  You can find reviews here, here, and here but just pick one up, you will be happy with it.

You can find this deal here.

Later,

John

Deal of the Day - 12/19/11

Hello All,

Two solid deals on Android tablets for today.  Woot is selling the Toshiba Thrive 16GB tablet for $294.99 shipped to your door.  This is a very solid tablet that has GPS, HDMI out, USB, and a SD card reader all built in to the unit.  For icing on the cake, this tablet will be upgraded to Android 4, which is built for tablets.

You can find this here.

If you want to buy something new, the Lenovo IdeaPad K1 32GB is on sale at both Staples and Office Depot for $299.99.  In my searches it seems that this tablet will also get updated to Android 4, but there is no official word from Lenovo.

You can find this here.
