Vintage Corset Ads

Nowadays, women who want a trimmer waist in a pinch typically turn to Spanx or some other body-slimming underwear.

You may have noticed how excited we've been about the Windows Phone operating system around these parts, so of course, I jumped at the chance to review the Samsung Focus S ($200) on AT&T.

But take away all the impressive specs and the cool features that come packed in Read more

Chewbacca cuts a dashing profile as a be-monocled "First Mate," and naturally Jabba the Hutt's Read more

Nokia Lumia 900 Pictures at CES

We got an up-close-and-personal look at the Nokia Lumia 900 last night at the Pepcom Digital event at CES, and after seeing it in person, I'm even more convinced that the Windows Phone will be a solid temptation for those who aren't Apple evangelists, but might be fed up with the Android platform. The big 4.3-inch AMOLED screen looks even better and brighter, while the rounded edges make for Read more

Ascend P1 S Is the World's Slimmest Smartphone From Huawei

Landing in North America in April, the Ascend P1 S is just 6.68 mm thick and comes with a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED Gorilla Glass touchscreen, so not only is it big and bright, but it's Read more
