Technology Reviews

This morning as I was browsing through the paper and eating breakfast I came across a very interesting article. It was a review of the Real Pad by AARP. It turns out that it isn't as easy to use as it advertises, although the price is right.

I am often asked by people how to decide on what to purchase (what type of laptop, what type of tablet or phone, etc..) Through the article I learned about a site that reviews tech things from the point of view of a non-techie. It is called Tech50Plus. There are reviews organized on different topics with large buttons for navigation through the site and large font. The reviews are based on four questions. I highly recommend this site as a place to go to research technology before purchasing.
