Rhinoskin has long been known for their rugged PDA cases. Back in the day, you weren’t a ‘real’ gadgeteer unless you had a Rhinoskin Titanium case for your PDA. These days, Rhinoskin sells protective cases for all types of small electronics. Sorry, no Titanium as far as I can tell, but how about a combo […]

A couple months ago, I was been bitten by the video bug when I started watching Josh Leo’s Vlog. This guy makes some really great videos and they inspired me to try my hand at doing the same thing. Well, not really the same thing, because I didn’t start an actual Vlog. When I get

For the past couple of months, I’ve been using a combination of a mobile phone and a PDA instead of just my Treo 650 smartphone. First I used the Sony w600i, then the Motorola Pebl, then back to the Sony and now I’m back to the Treo. I love a lot of things about the

Updated on 02/20/07. See updates at bottom of review in Red… SCOTTeVEST has been the king of high tech gadget clothing for several years now. We should know, here at The Gadgeteer, we’ve reviewed almost every product they’ve put on the market. But now there’s a new kid on the block: Kenpo of Los Angeles,

Last week I reviewed the iFish and this week I’m taking a look at another silly, but fun little gadget from Brando’s toy shop. This time around it is the Potan Poton from Tomy. I was told that the name refers to the sound that water makes when it drips. While that reference won’t be
Weekend Hodge Podge Amit and David of Aural New York sent me 2 sets of their colored iPod earbuds. They are available in Pink, Black and Blue and come with both Black and White earbud pads. They look (except for the color) and sound just like stock iPod earbuds. Priced at $15, they let you

Portable speakers made especially for the Apple iPod digital audio player are available in a veritable cornucopia of sizes, shapes and prices. For example, I’ve personally reviewed JBL’s On Tour speakers and Brando’s iPod audio system. Both provide good sound for a decent price, but I think I’ve found the ultimate speaker system for the

And now for a review of a product that is both wacky and different. The iFish from Sega Toys, the same people that brought us the iDog. I wasn’t too sure what I would have to say about this combination speaker and robot pet thingy when Brando asked if I would review it, but I
You’ve really got to love Indiana weather. Just yesterday, it was 50 degrees and sunny. Then this morning, I wake up to 28 degrees and a couple of inches or so of snow on the ground. I’ll admit that it was very pretty to look at. At least from inside a warm house. I think

This plug-in module uses Bluetooth to interface with your Bluetooth enabled mobile phone, to provide you with a handsfree voice kit. With

Remember my review of Bluetake’s i-PHONO mini BT450Rx Bluetooth stereo headphones? No? Ok, go read it here first and then come back to read this review of the BT450Tx. The BT450Tx is an accessory to the BT450Rx. Those of you with a mild level of geekiness should be clued in that this is a transmitter

USB Flash drives are convenient little gadgets that are extremely useful. I’ve heard them touted as the floppy disk of the 21st century and have to agree. I can’t even remember the last time I used an actual floppy. None of my current computers even have a floppy drive. The only problem with these handy

I shipped the OQO 01+ back to Dynamism yesterday. Now I’m completely Microsoft free at home and it’s making me a little nervous. I need to get an inexpensive laptop for product review purposes. Maybe something from Averatec, Dell or HP. I don’t want to send a lot of cash, since it’s not going to

Last summer I had the opportunity to review a very small Windows XP computer from Sony. The Vaio VGN-U71P made a good travel companion, but wasn’t perfect due to the fact that you had to also pack a folding keyboard, AC adapter brick and docking station with you if you wanted access to all its

I have reviewed four different Bluetooth mice in the last couple of years. First there was Bluetake’s BT500. Next it was the Mouse BT from MacMice, then ThinkOutside’s Stowaway Travel Mouse and finally Bluetake’s BT510. At the end of each of my reviews I always had the same complaint regarding the fact that there wasn’t

We have had several WiFi finder reviews posted here on The Gadgeteer. They are great little tools that make finding a WiFi hotspot an easy task. At least easier than the chore of booting up your laptop and checking manually for available networks. Of the 3 reviews (Canary, Kensington and Smart ID) that I’ve personally

I posted my first ever Gadgeteer video review last night. I’ll admit that it is pretty lame, but being my first effort, I don’t feel THAT bad about it. I’m curious to read some feedback on what you guys think of it. Is this something you would like to continue to see? I don’t think

Do you think wristwatches are going the way of the dinosaur? Now that everyone and their grandma has a cellphone, it seems that a watch is no longer a necessary item to own. At least that is what I read in an article the other day. Personally, I love watches. All kinds of watches. Even

What are everyone’s thoughts about Apple’s new hardware / software announcements this past Tuesday? It seems like most people were excited about the new MacBook Pro notebooks way more than the new Core Duo iMacs. I’m just the opposite. I really wish I could upgrade my 6 month old 20″ iMac for one of the
