Bed Bath & Beyond have marked the white Sharper Image Literati down to $39.99. It’s not a very good e-reader, and I wouldn’t give one to my worst enemy. But that’s a frigging cheap price for an e-reader! If you decide to get one, you might want to register on the BB&B website. They’ll email [...]

New image format comes with DRM
January 25th, 2011 · 2 Comments · opinion
Have you ever posted a picture online and then regretted it? Good news. There’s a new service called X-Pire that you can subscribe to that will encrypt your photo with an expiration date. Viewing the photo will require a browser plugin, and they only have a Firefox version as of yet. As I see it, [...]
Amazon K2, Sharper Image Literati show up in after Christmas clearance sales
December 28th, 2010 · 6 Comments · hardware news
I came across a couple after Christmas sales today. I think one is worth getting, but not the other. Amazon are once again selling the refurbished K2. The current list price is $110. It comes with the standard 1 year warranty and I’m expecting them to sell out fast. Amazon Best Buy have put the [...]

New firmware out for the Sharper Image Literati
December 26th, 2010 · 5 Comments · hardware news
I’ve just heard from a reader that the Literati got a firmware update recently. Unfortunately, I can’t give you a review of the improvements; my Literati forgets all the settings whenever I put it in sleep mode. I also can’t get it to stay connected to my Wifi network. I’m going to have to leave [...]

Review: Sharper Image Literati
October 5th, 2010 · 98 Comments · hardware reviews
I got a Literati about a week ago, and I was 1 of 4 blogs to get it. I’m sitting here right now, watching it fail to load my personal ebooks, and I’ve decided that I’ve used enough to give my opinion. DON’T BUY IT! At the very least wait for a firmware update. I [...]
First look at the Sharper Image Literati (it cleared the FCC)
September 30th, 2010 · 2 Comments · hardware news
And quite coincidentally, my review unit arrived today. It looks really neat, but I just barely got a chance to pick it up. I can’t say anything yet. I’m having some technical difficulties at the moment, so I’m going to suggest that you take a look at the external and internal photos on the FCC [...]
First Real hands on of the Sharper Image Literati (NYTimes)
September 29th, 2010 · 2 Comments · hardware reviews
The very first in depth of the Literati was posted yesterday in the New York Times. If you’re wondering why I didn’t get it first, well, as great as I am I’m not the NYTimes. The reviewer had some fairly good insights into the design of the Literati: To turn the page, you use left [...]
3 Hands on reports for the Sharper Image Literati
September 20th, 2010 · No Comments · hardware reviews
The Literati was on display last week at Pepcom’s Holiday Spectacular. I’ve found 3 blogs who took the time to look at the Literati. 2 of the posts are rather shallow, but Cnet’s report is reasonably detailed considering the fact that time was limited and the exhibit hall was probably noisy.
First look at the Sharper Image Literati
September 16th, 2010 · No Comments · hardware news
Paul Biba of Teleread was at product showcase yesterday (the name escapes me, but ti’s apparently a well known event) and he shot this clip of the Literati. You’re looking at the black Literati, not the white one.
