CrunchDeals: Sharper Image Literati Wireless Reader

Calling all first adopters and/or risk takers. Woot has a fun deal for you crazy folk this morning. For only $50 you can score a color ereader with WiFi! That’s less than John Biggs spends filling up his lovely purple Honda Fit. So what are the downsides? Well, honestly, if you’re asking that question than please don’t buy this. I’m 100% serious. If you don’t know — and that’s fine — then just take my word and skip this deal. Save a bit more and snag a Kindle for $139. This Sharper Image tablet is just more Alibaba junk. However, that said, it’s sure to provide $50 worth of fun to the right person — just as long as that person understands they’re not buying a Kindle. → Read More

CrunchDeal: 1TB for $70

Just to help you spend your paycheck today, we’ve got another CrunchDeal for you. Let’s say you’re running out of space, so you don’t have enough room to download Left 4 Dead 2. No problem, Newegg.com is selling a Western Digital Caviar Green 1TB drive for $70. This is the SATA 3.0Gb/s version, with the 4kb physical sectors. That makes it perfect for Windows 7, but no so great for XP. You can still use it, but it’ll require WD’s Align application. It’s still a great deal at $70, particularly if you have something like a NAS. The Western Digital Caviar Green drives actually run a little cooler then most other models, so you shouldn’t run into thermal issues. [via Tech Report] → Read More
