Top ten Digital Lifestyle products of 08
There was lots of activity in the Digital Lifestyle space in 08 with new devices, services and platforms being launched, and some of our favorites from last year receiving significant updates. Here’s my pick of the best ten Digital Lifestyle products of 08.
Why I’m backing Palm to make a comeback
It was already pretty much certain that Palm will finally unveil its next-generation mobile operating system, along with a brand new device, at January’s Consumer Electronics Show (the press invite reads: “Come to CES to see all that Palm New-ness you’ve been waiting for”) and now BusinessWeek is stirring the pot.
Vudu set-top box no longer a one trick pony, adds support for YouTube, Flickr and more
My biggest beef with the Vudu set-top movie box is that it’s always been a one trick pony, and an expensive one at that, focusing on paid-for movies. That’s changed with the company announcing support for a range of free online video as well as images from photo sharing sites.
Analyst: Apple to release ‘closed’ Netbook with iPhone-esque App Store

That’s a wrap. Thanks for reading and happy holidays.
Bonus wrapup: Zatz Not Funny: GPS holiday gift guide, Squeezebox, SlingPlayer on Blackberry
I hope I really win $6,000 HP will bring a Joy to my friends and family that I will share the Magic with this Christmas, Good Luck to everyone that entered and have a happy holiday season
I love HP and microsoft!
