I haven’t had the Apple iPod nano all that long, but have already had the chance to test out several cases for it, including a silicon and aluminum case. This will be my first review of leather cases for the nano though. The folks at PDAir sent me their version 1 leather flip and sleeve […]

Help, is there a shaman in the house?! I have somehow offended the powers of Palm and now I seem to have a Treo 650 curse on my head. You think I’m crazy? I think not! Just listen to my tale of woe and you’ll see what I mean. If anything, the pathos will definitely

I love my Apple iPod nano because it’s teeny tiny and sexy. Problem is, it scratches if you even look at it cross eyed. Mine developed light scratches all over the face within the first day of light use. :o( Since Apple failed to include a case of any kind with the player, I resorted

Just found an interesting little doodad in my mailbox today. The Earbud Clip from PKOH NYC. Basically it is a Lexan polycarbonate clip that allows you to easily secure your earbud cord around your audio device.

Judie just recently reviewed the Milan leather jacket from SCOTTeVEST. This is a very nice update to their Version 3.0 Limited Edition Leather Jacket that I reviewed 2 years ago. It’s very nice, but also VERY expensive. What’s a gadgeteer to do when they really want a leather SCOTTeVEST jacket, but don’t quite have the

Now for another episode in “Julie’s Search for a Smartphone”… The Nokia 6682 isn’t for me. Yeah it’s a great phone with lots of features, but using it as both my phone *and* PDA lacks a lot of oomph. So, I just bought a used Treo 650 (GSM) from eBay. While the Treo doesn’t totally

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

There is no doubt that the Sony PlayStation Portable is a very sexy device. It takes a strong willed geek who can resist the charms of this smooth, shiny, black handheld gaming siren. I’m definitely not one of the strong ones. I’m weak… very very weak… But you know the one thing that would make

I’m beginning to anticipate an ending to my ultimate gear bag quest! I’ve realized that the style of bag that works best for me is the messenger style. I never thought this would be the case, but since the Timbuk2 review, I’ve found it to be true. Now I’m on the hunt for the best
