It’s Thursday, and that means, er, nothing. But we do have gadgets for you!

• The BlackBerry Storm reviews are starting to hit the web. All sources indicate that it’s good, but not yet ready to slay the incumbent iPhone. Cue the “rains on RIM’s parade” jokes.
• It’s rare that new developments in the flash drive arena amount to more than new capacities, new colors or some new-fangled encryption scheme. Yet Kanguru has managed to deliver the goods by releasing a flash drive with an eSATA connection for superior throughput.
• Packard Bell is back with a netbook. Everyone grab your warranties.
• Meet Roofus, the beastly robot that plows snow like it ain’t no thang. We, for one, accept our new robot overlords.
