Since when does the package need to resemble what is inside? I for one wouldn’t like fish-shaped sushi or a cow-shaped hamburger. So why do electronics cases have to be the same shape as the gadgets they protect? So when I saw that Speck made a toroid-shaped case for the Gen 2 iPod Shuffle, I thought it might be fun to give it a try.

This is the second Nano sports armband review I’ve done. The first review was on the Nike Sport Armband which has done an excellent job holding my Nano during my running. That being said, my initial impression of the Speck Active-Sport armband for the first generation Nano was that it was too big and bulky. But after using it several weeks it has grown on me enough to replace my Nike armband. An added bonus of the Speck armband is that it includes a sensor pouch to hold the Nike+ sensor.

I can’t even begin to say how many times I have wanted to run a quick errand
without taking along more than the basic necessities – my ID, Amex, some cash
and my PDA phone. Even as a die-hard Gadgeteer I feel that it is a bit of
overkill to make a quick trip to the grocery store loaded down with a day’s
supply of connection cables, adapters and memory cards.

Julie and I have talked about how nice it would be to have a small bag or
specially designed wallet that could … [visit site to read more]

If you have purchased an Apple iPod nano, you know that it is almost impossible to avoid scratching this digital audio player. I speak from experience, as after having mine for only one day, the clear plastic layer covering the display had scuffs and the chrome back plate had thin scratches all over it. Being an iPod owner for several years now, I wasn’t surprised to see these scratches, but I was very surprised at how … [visit site to read more]

My iPod was one of my more
extravagant gadget purchases. This seemingly delicate device would be exposed to
the risk of damage pretty much constantly. I would listen to audio books and
ripped news programmes on the way to work, music while writing at work, music
while walking from office to the sandwich bar … etc. So, there would be many
opportunities to scratch or drop the iPod. Obviously I
needed a case to … [visit site to read more]
