We’re busy preparing Gift Guides here on GBM (as if you hadn’t noticed.) I’m working on a couple for Tablet lovers. One glaring omission that I’ve noticed for those who prefer Android Tablets is that there currently is no such thing as a Gift Card option for the Android Marketplace. Google (the proprietor of the [...]

Amazon is now selling the cheapest version of its wildly popular Kindle for just $114. The Kindle with Special Offers is nearly identical to the WiFi-only Kindle, which sells for $139.

Amazon.com is selling the HTC Thunderbolt for just $174.99 with free two-day shipping. This price includes free two-day shipping and most buyers won’t have to pay tax up front.This is the best deal on the Thunderbolt at the moment. The HTC Thunderbolt has an MSRP of $599.99, but you’ll only need to pay that if [...]
Amazon.com has posted a product page for the HP TouchPad. The page is pretty sparse at the moment, just listing specs and asking if you’d like to receive alerts when the device is actually for sale. There’s no HP TouchPad pricing or availability information at Amazon.com yet and I don’t think this indicates that the [...]
Amazon introduced Prime Instant Videos today, a new Prime benefit that allows members to watch more than 5,000 movies and TV shows for free. Amazon typically rents or sells videos via its Instant Video service. Existing Prime customers may or may not be able to watch all of the free movies and TV shows however. [...]
Mophie recently introduced the Mophie Juice Pack Air Plus for iPhone 4 for $99. The original Juice Pack Air for the iPhone 4 dropped to just $79 since it only has 75% of the juice of the new model. Amazon.com’s apparently clearing out stock of this unit and dropped the price of the Juice Pack [...]
The TimesOnLine is reporting that Amazon is looking around in London for locations to possibly open brick and mortar retail outlets. Supposedly this is to satisfy those customers who can’t wait on delivery but would rather buy on-line and then pick up in the store. If this “secret plan” is true it would be a [...]
I’d love to backup every last bit to my various cloud services, but the Internet tubes that lead from my office to services like Amazon S3, Sugarsync and MobileMe make it a daunting, if not impossible task. Amazon’s introducing a service called AWS Import/Export, which lets you mail an external backup drive to a data [...]
Interesting post on ReadWriteWeb about retail stores not grasping what appears to be a coming wave of customers using applications on mobile phones to do price checking via bar code scanning apps. The T-Mobile G1 has an application that apparently (I haven’t tried the phone or the app) does it up right. Shop Savvy will [...]

The Next Nexus: What It Needs to Stay Ahead of the Pack
Late last year, Google and Samsung released the third rendition of the Nexus smartphone. The first of course was the HTC-made Nexus One which arrived in 2010 to great fan fare.

iHome iB40 Headphones: Decent Sound at Budget Price
If you’re looking for a budget set of headphones that still produce decent sound and rich bass, then you should give the iHome iB40 Headphones a look.

Droid 4 Review: Incredible Keyboard, Awesome Speeds
The Droid 4 is the most recent of Motorola’s Droid line.
