Save Money By Buying Cheap Gadgets From China

Recently I’ve been eBay’ing a lot more than I usually do. One reason is because of the cheap knock off gadgets from Hong Kong. I purchased a fake iPhone 3g dock for about $3 off of eBay and then 2 mini Bluetooth adapters for a dollar each. All three items have roughly the same build quality of a $50 or $60 product. I am currently waiting on a headphone jack extension cable, a mini tripod, and a desktop microphone, all three for about a dollar each. The only issue I have had with doing this is the long wait times for the products to be delivered. You may notice that their grammar is sub par, but the products they sell are good.

IDrive Portable – Review

Ok, so, I won a giveaway on twitter from @IDrive_Online. They sent me a 300gb IDrive Portable. I’ve had it for about a day and it seems pretty nice. The build of the IDrive is quite sturdy and it is quiet when in use. The IDrive surprisingly does not get very warm which is good. The IDrive has a mini USB port on the back of it to connect to the computer and it is powered solely by the USB connection. It also has a LED indicator lite that turns green when not in use and red when it is. I have filled it about half way with files. The HDD inside of the IDrive is a Hitachi. I would rate this product a 5 out of 5. The IDrive sells for about $70 at http://idrive.com/portable

AJCutshall.com is now Ad Supported

Due to my current financial state, AJCutshall.com is now Ad Supported. This is a last resort to generate revenue. Please do not complain about the ads, for they are the only thing that is keeping the site active (other than the free hosting from my best friend Shawn). Again, this is a last resort. As soon as I can find a viable source of income the ads will be removed. I also have placed a donation button in the sidebar. I will gladly accept any donation.

Thank you for understanding,

HP Mini 311-1000NR Review

IMG_124785
A while ago I got a HP Mini 311-1000NR. So far I love it. It is extremely light-weight and portable. The battery in it lasts around 6-8 hours depending on how much you use it. The Mini came with Windows XP Home Edition pre-installed (along with about 5 gigs of bloatware). I did a USB install of Windows 7 Ultimate and it is running smoothly. The HP Mini has a 11.6 inch wide-screen LCD, 1.6ghz Intel Atom processor, 160gb HDD, 1gb of RAM, and 512mb of graphics memory thanks to the NVIDIA Ion. The computer is perfect for mobile web browsing and mobile video conferencing (depending on your cellular carrier *COUGH GET SPRINT COUGH*). I would highly recommend the mini to anyone who is looking for an amazing netbook.

How to get a free $25 gift card from Sprint!

Hey everyone, I just thought that I would tell you how to get a free $25 gift card from Sprint. First off, you need to have a newly activated sprint phone. Second, you have to have activated the phone less than 15 days ago. To get this promo, call #733 and enter the code: 2488370467 (this works, I have done it and I received my card). Your card will take about 4 to 5 weeks to arrive.

First Week Of School

Well, I’m surprised, high school doesn’t suck as bad as I thought it would (always a plus). I have a kick ass English teacher, and all of the staff treat me like an adult for once. Another cool thing is that I’m on the yearbook committee, and that, is just epic. We have a coffee pot, microwave, and a mini refrigerator in the yearbook room (about half of the worlds niceties). I’ve been keeping my grades up and not putting off homework until the last minute as that is how I messed up my middle school career a bit.

Anyone else a freshmen in high school? I would like to hear your feedback, leave your comment below.

Due to a technical error, I’m restarting the website one more time. This time should be the last time that the site will have to be restarted.
