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.

Paris Hilton Backlash Vol 15: Paris Forgets Aussie Charity Promise to Help Kids

parishilton_backlash.jpg

Oops, Paris did it again. "Did what?" you ask, mes amis? Why, diss a charity, that's what. This time it was an organization in Australia that helps seriously ill children, including cancer patients. According to the Aussie newspaper the Herald Sun, the Hilton hotel heiress made a promise to help raise money for Paradise Kids, a charitable organization, during a visit to the charity a couple of years ago. This happened while Paris was spending a lot of time on location Down Under for the filming of the horror flick "House of Wax." But since then, the charity's administrators have not heard from the blonde model-actress-pornstar. Paris was reported to have offered to arrange for a star-studded charity concert in L.A. in order to raise funds for Paradise Kids. Well, mes amis, this sounds like another one of those instances when a celeb's good intentions only went as far as their empty PR blather would allow. Sacre bleu!
