Time for a New Controller

I think it's high time I bought a new game controller for my computer. My current one is a Gravis Gamepad Pro which I don't think they make any more. I don't even think Gravis is a company nowadays. I've seen a wireless controller at Wal-mart for $20 and I'm thinking about getting that one, but I don't know what the name brand is. Oh yeah, the reason I'm getting a new controller is the Gravis Gamepad Pro's drivers work for awhile, then stop working after a day or so. There is no support for my controller, and I've had it for about 5 years so I will have to spend the money for a new controller.

JVC GR-D347u Camcorder

This Christmas I received many presents. One present I bought myself. I bought a JVC GR-D347u DV Camcorder from Wal-mart. My digital camera that I paid $200 for about 3 years ago died on me, so I needed a new camera. I decided to search for a digital camcorder so I could record video and save it to my computer and maybe even make a DVD. I wasn't sure what kind of camcorder I wanted, because there are so many good options from Sony, Cannon, and JVC to Hitachi and many others. I think Sony's supposed to be the best, but the price is too high for me at $500- $600. I decided since I hadn't operated a camcorder since the old ones that weigh down on your shoulder and use VHS tapes, I'd better get one for a beginner, since I never owned a camcorder. So far, I really like this camera and hope to do some good videos with the help of my friends and post them on YouTube. I also need to find a good program to edit videos so I can create a more professional look.

Air Hogs Sharpshooter Battery

So, I have an Air Hogs Sharpshooter and I enjoy flying it, but the battery takes 30 min. to charge and only last 4-5 min. for flying. I decided to open it up and see what battery I currently have, so I can get a better one. The battery that is in the Air Hogs Sharpshooter is a 3.7V 140mAh LiPo battery. Now, I have to decide what battery to buy. I have seen 400mAh to 700mAh batteries. Hopefully, I will get the right battery to extend my flight time.

My new iPad 2012

Yes, it's been awhile since I blogged last. I will try to update more often. Well, right now I'm blogging from my new iPad. Why did I get one? Well supposedly, tablets are the future of computing and I didn't want to be left behind. Also, this is much cheaper than a new MacBook Pro. I have the new iPad or what some will call the iPad 3 and my wife has the iPad 2. I cannot really see a difference between the two devices, but future apps will work on my iPad and may not on the iPad 2. So, what do I use it for? I use my iPad for blogging, simple photo editing, email, gaming, streaming videos, and sometimes controlling a PC. Instead of buying an Xbox or PS3, I'm happy to game on the iPad. No, I'm not a serious gamer. If I were, I would use a desktop PC. While my iPad has not replaced my MacBook, I am hoping it will in the future. I love the battery life and traveling light is excellent. I think we should become more mobile in the future and not tied down to our ho
