Sherlock Holmes Trailer
Very much looking forward to this.
I got a chance to read this story before it was released and I wholeheartedly recommend you spend the 99¢ and read it immediately.After 35 years working at the Central Library, Vincent Lewis has perfected the art of unremarkability. But when a terrified woman falls through his bathroom ceiling, he’s forced back into a life of gunfights, double agents and paranormal research. The secret he’s been keeping for nearly four decades might reunite him with his lost love, or kill millions.
Apple In-Ear Headphones Mini-Review
The Apple In-Ear Headphones got me really excited because I’ve never been able to wear the default iPod/iPhone headphones since they don’t fit my ears. The design is attractive and I like the big remote, but the cord is plastic and it’s the bad kind that keeps bends and tangles easily. And the volume buttons on the remote don’t work with the iPhone (yet?). The fit was decent, but required I really cram them into my ears, deeper than I felt I should have. Even then it wasn’t great.
The worst part about these headphones is the way they sound. I heard nothing but good things about them before I bought ‘em but either I’m nuts or everyone else is (don’t answer that). These headphones have zero bass. I mean ZERO. It feels as though they were designed for elderly gentlemen to enjoy the tinny, treble-loving sound of records from the days of yore.
For $80, I don’t need to be barely comfortable while listening to what sounds like music played over a CB radio. Verdict? Returned.
Note: I’m trying to find a suitable pair of in-ear headphones to replace two broken pairs of V-Moda Vibe Duos. This is an ongoing series of mini-reviews in which I make clear to the world that I will never, ever find what I want.
Still one of my favorite nerdy strips of all time. I wish this worked but it doesn’t (trust me, I’ve tried it several times).
