Posted by Eric Ravenscraft in Deals, News

Last Updated: December 28th, 2012

First off, a little briefing for those who are unfamiliar with Touch of Modern: the site requires an invite to gain access, so if you're not already a member and you're thinking of buying this, or any other deal really, you should sign up for an invite immediately. I got mine in a day or two after requesting, but your mileage may vary.

With that out of the way, the Braven 600, 650, and 625s are all on sale for 20% off right now via the site. They're currently running for $120 for the 600 (normally $149), $144 for the 625s (normally $179), and $152 for the 650 (normally $189).

Gameloft Slashes Prices On Almost All Its Games To $0.99 In Time For The Holidays

Posted by Liam Spradlin in Deals, Games, News

Smack in the middle of the holiday season, Gameloft has cut prices on just about all of its paid games in a "Holiday Frenzy." If you've got a couple dollars to spare and some time to kill, Gameloft likely has something you'll enjoy, slicing prices on everything from The Adventures of Tin Tin to Wild Blood down to a mere $0.99. Conspicuously absent from the sale is Modern Combat 4, but the 12 other deals make up for its exclusion (though this writer posits that the game may just be worth its $6.99 price tag).

For the sake of convenience (and economy), we'll take a look at each of Gameloft's offerings to let you know what they are, what they're about, and – most importantly – whether they're worth checking out.

[Deal Alert] OfficeSuite Pro 6 HD, Normally $14.99, Is On Sale For Just $.99

Posted by Jeremiah Rice in Applications, Deals

Newsflash, Android users: the Google Drive/Docs app is terrible. It's just about competent enough to read the documents you've written elsewhere, but for editing and creating new Word, Excel, and PDF documents, you need something with a little more oomph. One of the best choices out there is OfficeSuite, and it's also one of the most expensive, at $15. But right now you can - and should - pick it up for a single dollar.

I've tried a lot of the Android word processor options out there, and I can say that OfficeSuite is definitely one of the best available.
