I love my Droid, but sometimes I see an iPhone gadget that makes me just a little envious. Add this boom mic to that growing list. There are, at last count, about three million iPhone lens attachments, wheels, filters and other doo dads for capturing the best visuals from your phone. Unless you have an [...]

For 99.9% of the things you do on your smartphone you don’t really need a stylus. But if you’re as addicted to Draw Something as I am, you may find that a stylus is almost a necessary accessory (say that 3 times fast for bonus points). At least if you want your opponent to be [...]

The Brydge iPad keyboard case, a Kickstarter project, looks very promising. It features a full-sized keyboard in an aerospace-grade aluminum body, and it has a patent-pending hinge system that uses friction and magnets to securely hold your iPad – even when you try to shake it apart. The hinge rotates through almost 180-degrees, so you’ll [...]

If you enjoy painting on canvas, you might find that you also enjoy “painting” on an iPad. Or if you’ve never painted before, doing so on a tablet is fun and way less messy. I am a doodler and don’t claim to have any talent whatsoever. I just enjoy drawing cartoons and thingamabobs whenever I’m [...]

I’ve been on a quest to minimize the gear I need to carry to charge/sync my electronics. My current cable/connector bag is 10.5″ X 4.5″ X 3.5″ and weighs 1.75 pounds. It’s stuffed with cables I almost never use, so it’s hard to find the one or two cables I do use. I certainly don’t [...]

I hate hiding my slim and sleek gadgets in big bulky covers, and while I don’t (and probably never will ) own an iPad, the new Ultrathin Keyboard Cover which was announced today by Logitech looks the goods. The cover has an ultrathin alumium screen aligned with iPad’s built in frame magnets and makes use of the iPad’s [...]

Ok, apparently everyone thinks this app is the bomb. HuffPo likes it, New York Times and Edmunds.com both like it. It’s available for iPhone and other Smartphone users and it’s free. And if it’s free…it’s me. Whether it’s an auto emergency, a roadside breakdown, or just a small problem, RepairPal can help. The award-winning RepairPal [...]

Remember back when PDAs and iPods all came with a charging and syncing dock? These days all you get is a USB charging cable. Yes, I realize that a cable will get the job done, but they certainly lack in the decor department. If you’ve been wishing for a dock that will charge your iPhone [...]

Call me old fashioned, but my daughter didn’t have a Facebook account until she was 15. Kids as young as 13 are allowed on Facebook, and there used to be (probably still are) some websites designed specifically for even younger kids. Carnegie Mellon University and Web Wise Kids have worked together to create the BeSeen [...]

As I’ve mentioned before, the thing I haven’t liked about the iPads I’ve owned is the on-screen keyboard. The virtual keys don’t lend themselves to touch typing. None of the keyboard cases I’ve tried were what I’ve been looking for, because they have cramped, undersized keyboards, often with a non-standard layout. The best keyboard I’ve [...]

The Devium Dash is an interesting concept in car stereos. It’s a two component system that consists of a faceplate and a body. The body (shown above in Black) is installed in your dash in the spot where your current car stereo resides. It interfaces with your vehicle’s speakers. The faceplate connects to the body [...]

A couple of years ago I reviewed a very unique Canadian made stylus called the oStylus. It had a very unique design with a bullseye style swivel tip. At the time I really liked the stylus because it made it much easier to draw due to the fact that I was able to see the [...]

I don’t normally use screen protectors on my electronics. Most screen and body protectors require liquid for a smooth application, and the application directions warn you to remove the battery and keep the device turned off for a couple of days until the liquid has all evaporated. That’s great, but Apple iPhones and iPads don’t [...]

I love cases and bags, and Levenger has some of the most beautiful I’ve seen. Their Carry My World iPad Envelope bag is made of natural full-grain leather with a textured finish. The bag will fit any iPad model, and there’s even an interior pocket to hold your eReader. There’s a zippered exterior pocket to [...]

I’ve started a quest to find a way to touch-type on an iPad without having to use a heavy case with a non-standard keyboard in it. I already wrote about my attempt to hack my own case/lapdesk for the iPad and Apple Bluetooth keyboard. Today, I’ll be looking at something completely different. The iKeyboard started [...]
