X-Micro EVA 256MB MP3 Player Review

Add as a preferred source on Google

Quote from the review:

“I got to say I really enjoyed the Eva. I’ve never really been a fan of small players, preferring to have a unit that carries around every piece of music I own. But the Eva was darn handy to have, both as a quick music fix, and as a USB drive. Plus it’s just easier to mow with then my Jukebox. About the only complaints I have with the unit are the touchy power button and the plastic casing, which already was showing some scratching after about a week of use.

Minor quibbles though. X-Micro has a nice little player here at a reasonable price. It offers up decent sound quality, a surprisingly good pair of ear buds, and handles double duty as a convenient USB drive. It includes everything you need in a really nice, eye catching package that you can continue to use after purchase – or in my case, have your kid steal for her ponytail collection. For 99 bucks retail, the Eva competes right up there with most other flash players, is terribly handy as well as fun, and is totally recommended. “

The rollout marks one of the fastest-growing launches in the history of Microsoft’s Frontier program, according to the company.

We all know those heavy, coin-operated binoculars perched on every scenic overlook in America, the ones you’ll find everywhere from the Empire State Building to the Grand Canyon. Turns out, they’ll soon start accepting tap-to-pay payments. 

This is great news, as you’ll no longer need to carry a quarter anymore, and making payments with your smartphone is much more convenient. However, I’d argue that the quarter was kind of the whole point.

The FBI secretly built an entire fake town just to practice cyberattacks
Hidden inside a warehouse in Alabama, the Kinetic Cyber Range recreates real-world digital attacks from start to finish.
FBI Kinetic Cyber Range Featured

While Hollywood has fake cities for filming movies, the FBI apparently has one for getting hacked. The agency has pulled back the curtain on its Kinetic Cyber Range, a 22,000-square-foot replica small town hidden inside its Huntsville, Alabama campus. But instead of training officers for shootouts or hostage rescues, the facility is designed to simulate realistic cyberattacks on homes, businesses, and critical infrastructure so investigators can practice responding to them in a controlled environment.
