I have been riding motorcycles for over two decades; nearly twice as long as I have been a true tech-junkie. While I love putting around on my bike, I have always wanted to ride with music playing. I have attempted to make this happen many times over the years but nothing I have tried was either comfortable or convenient. The Cardo SCALA RIDER Q2 MultiSet Bluetooth (Motorcycle Helmet) Headset not only provides music while riding, but cellular conductivity, rider to rider/passenger communications, FM radio, and audible GPS instructions (via bluetooth).  I have my hopes up….I hope I am not disappointed. … [visit site to read more]

It’s no secret that I’m not a girly girl. Give me some old jeans, a tshirt and a pair of sneakers and I’m perfectly comfy. Same goes for my gear bags. I don’t want a froo-froo bag with flowers or Hello Kitty on it. I like like simple unassuming bags that don’t look too shiny or new.

The K-box Gel Speaker from Kerchoonz is not your typical speaker. It uses whatever surface it is sitting on as a soundboard. We’ve reviewed similar devices here before. Most recently it was the Free-D i-Ball and several years ago it was the Olympia Soundbug. Neither provided what I would consider ‘good’ sound. When the folks at Kerchoonz contacted me to see if I would review the K-box, I was skeptical that it would be able to do much better than the others. It arrived at Gadgeteer HQ, I’ve tested it and here are the results. … [visit site to read more]

“New Media. Original Content. On Demand.”

Mediafly is your source for video and audio personalized channels including podcasts and more delivered to virtually any media-enabled device.”

I don’t really do audiobooks or podcasts- I’m just too visual of a person to focus on that sort of thing for too long. My mind wanders and the next thing I know I am engrossed on something else while the content plays to an empty audience. I tell you this so you understand that when I looked at Mediafly for all of my podcasting needs (at Julie’s request), I did so with an attitude of hopeful pessimism- hey, at least it offers video, right?. … [visit site to read more]

If you’re like me, you may have a problem with wanting to keep your new toys shiny. For years, I struggled with this issue on my laptops. For some reason, those “Invisible Shield” type skins never work out for me because I could never get dust and bubbles out of them, and the imperfections bothered me.
