This is the third case I recently received to try with my iPhone 5 from Vaja Cases. The Leather Grip Hardshell Case for iPhone 5 is a leather-wrapped hard backcover case. It’s quite different from the Vaja flip-cover cases I recently review. (Check the related links at the bottom of the review.) This case is for the person […]

I have an 11″ MacBook Air, and it irks me to no end that most laptop bags that are supposedly designed for this tiny laptop will disclose in the fine print that they will accommodate up to a 15″ laptop. I don’t want my Air floating around in a giant, heavy bag. I don’t even

Vaja Cases have a reputation for beautiful, well-made leather cases and covers. Until recently, I had never gotten to try a Vaja case for myself, and my first experience was with the beautiful Nouva Pelle case for iPhone 5. I was also lucky enough to recently receive some other Vaja iPhone 5 cases. Two of them

I always liked the Bumper case I had for my iPhone 4. I liked that it added a little color and some grip to my slick, white iPhone without obscuring the beauty of the phone. I always wished they had included a polycarbonate cover for the back to prevent scratches to the glass, though. Griffin

I’ve seen a lot of iPhone cases, but I’ve never seen one that makes the back of an iPhone 5 look like the back of a Florence Knoll sofa. The Cushion Wrap Case is a brand new offering from ADOPTED, a “fashion tech accessories brand”. The Cushion Wrap is made of their “patent-pending metallized frame

With the Porch Potty Premium: First Automated Grass Litter Box for Dogs, you can enjoy the luxury of “indoor plumbing” for your dog. The

I have some OCD tendencies that are under control now for the most part, but I still freak out about leaving the house unattended for any length of time. I don’t mean I have agoraphobia, but I’m afraid someone will break into the house while I’m out, even for a few hours. We don’t have

None of the laptops and keyboards I’ve had in the past several years has had a separate numeric keypad, and I still miss them. Even for something as simple as entering my ZIP Code, I often begin to reach for the right side of my Apple Bluetooth keyboard before I remember there are no number
