When Apple released the AirPods and I saw them for the first time, I did a double-take because at first, I thought that they were just weirdly shaped earrings.  Now I see them everywhere.  And at a price of $159, I imagine that losing them would be top of mind for most AirPods owners.  So what

When it comes to backpacks, you can never have too many, right? Especially if you are a student, or a frequent traveler, or a wandering nomad. Brevite makes a line of bags that are designed especially for folks who regularly carry photography equipment, but I find that their bags are great for just about anyone

As I have written here at the Gadgeteer before, Kenu designs products that are simple in design, easy-to-use, and products that just work. You won’t see many buttons, switches, or blinking lights on their products. If you’ll allow me to make a comparison, I think comparing Kenu products to Apple products may give you an
