I spent most of Christmas Day doing two things, reading and trying to sleep.

Pure Shmure
I know these are harsh words, but trust me when I say I’ve tried not to say them. Here it is: I do not recommend the 02 XDA Atom Pure. I’ve had it for longer than two weeks, and as of yet I’ve not had it provide any level of reliability or usability. I’ve had… Continue reading Pure Shmure
