TECH GEAR
Mobile Devices We Like:
T-Mobile Sidekick and Sidekick II
Easy to use, unbusinesslike and not too techy-looking, we like the Sidekick 'cause it's easy on the thumbs for typing and is probably the most comfortable cell phone and text-messaging device in terms of keyboard size and design.

Palm Treo 650
The treo 650 is to the Sidekick what Prada dress shoes are to Adidas sneakers. Despite that analogy, the Treo will not win points for style compared to many cell phones, though the Treo is well-designed and nice on the eyes. The Treo is a so-called Smartphone and runs an OS for its Palm PDA functionality. Part phone, part PDA and part e-mail and Internet-enabled handheld computer, the 650 comes in slightly different versions for Cingular, Verizon, and Sprint. The best part of the 650 is its keyboard and high-resolution color screen.

Yeaaaaaah! Rapper Lil Jon Racks Up Adult Video Awards Nominations and Inks New Porn Deal!

021205_lil_jon.jpg

Bust out the crunk juice! Last year the Massive commented on Lil Jon and his foray into the porn video business. Like Snoop Dogg before him, Lil Jon was already hard at work building his entertainment empire while the white-hot media heat was surrounding him. Well, 2004 was quite a year for Lil Jon with the hip-hop artist pumping out a string of hits, a new album and getting plenty of inadverdant publicity that came with Dave Chapelle satirizing the limited vocabulary of the gold-toothed, dread-locked MC on Chappelle's Show. In 2005, Lil Jon's star is shining brighter than. His porn franchise has flourished beyond anyone's expectations and He's been put up for several Adult Video Awards, the porn industry's Oscars. The big players have taken notice. Lil' Jon and his production company have just inked a new two-picture deal with industry leader Vivid that promises more crunky porn titles in 2005.

The new titles will be called "Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz' Vivid Vegas Party" and "Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz Nightclubbin." The first picture is currently in production and will be released this spring.
Lil Jon and his crew will score the videos and introduce the sex scenes. As Lil Jon himself would say: Yeeeeaaaaaaah!

The AVN nominations were given for "Lil Jon & The Eastside Boyz: American Sex Series" in the categories of "Best Music" and "Best Themed Release." Both titles were produced by Afro-Centric Productions and Legacy DVD Works and distributed by Vivid.
