Gizmodo Year in Review: March

What a yr it ’s been in gadgetry ! Just 12 short month ago , I was blissfully sleeping in , uprise only to attend Department of State - mandated acquisition focus course . Yet your unwavering appetite for plastic - robe consumer gear pressed me into service , like a fireman who ignores his gamy score in Bubble Bobble to rescue a burning baby , or the food engineer who developed Wendy ’s Wild Mountain Spicy Chicken sandwich to call America ’s smack cravings . As we set up ourselves for next hebdomad ’s electronics orgy of CES , let us take a minute to think over on the high and lows of our shiny love affair together , month by month , as we pull out notable and favorite posts from the last 3,500 some - odd articles from this class ’s Gizmodo .

On March 4th , I called the Nintendo DS an“ill - conceived dressing table project for someone inside Nintendo ” . As I drop a line this , there is a Nintendo DS , purchased with my own sister ’s stolen Christmas money , next to the computer .

Sadly , after the dying of the N - Gage ’s most lampooned feature , Sidetalkin ’ , the organization in reality got a few interesting games , like Pocket Kingdoms .

Motorola unveils the MPx in one of many posts that have been eaten by clock time . We note , “ Expected in the latter half of 2004 , the MPx is inviolable , like a lion fool away from a shank mounted on a moving fastball train ; the Treo 600 had better stay on its toe . ” The Treo 600 stayed on its toe just long enough for the Treo 650 to be put out , while the MPx is still MIA . Also , the MPx is juicy , like a productive person , deflate much excitement .

March interpret the first and last“Gizmodel of the Week,”an attempt to dog away the remaining 2 - 3 % of our interview that are fair sex .
