He's basically the biggest voice for tech gadgets for the 40 yr old and up, Prof. upper middleclass demographics. Which is a very important demographic. This is the group that buys up electronic gadgets like candy.

Overall I like him, he is a little too Apple fanboyish at times, and normally for ereaders is all kindle all the time. So there is a little too much of the "I support basically the industry top sellers" type of mantra but he invokes humor in his reviews.

he had a show on discover science and HDTheater called "Its all Geek to me" great show.

He's great for digital camera's, in fact he's my go to guy for that. and other more obsucre electronic gadgets.

i was actually pleasently surprised of his positive review of the nook color, simply because he's such a kindle guy.
