Great review, it's awesome to see gadget reviews from a specific use case instead of just "7/10 on our random everything score scale". I wish there was a review site for the HN crowd. Someone that would use every device like a software developer would: tinkering with settings, trying to write/run code, integrating with other services, etc. I generally like reviews on Engadget/The Verge but sometimes I feel they care about different things than I care about. Anyone know of a gadget review site for hackers?

We should start said site.

  I agree, although I feel there is a large barrier to entry to entering the review business since you need to buy a lot of expensive things to review them.

    Not always. I have a friend who runs a pretty popular Android blog, routinely mentions that at times, it's as easy as asking for a review product and it's yours.

      Check out my profile and shoot me an email, I'd love to maybe give this a shot.

  An excellent idea and I'm sure there's definitely a gap for it, as long as you're a decent and enthusiastic reviewer and writer.
