A few weeks ago Dave Hauser of Dragonthorn Leatherworks contacted me to ask if I would be interested in reviewing his PCS. What is a PCS you ask? It stands for Pocket Carry System and if you like keeping your EDC (everyday carry) items organized, you’re going to appreciate his design skills and craftsmanship. Let

Recently I purchased a fully-loaded Apple Macbook Pro with Retina display. And since it costs $3,749, I decided it was best to get some form of case to protect my new laptop. I was deciding between a plastic hard case, sleeve or some form of stick on protector. I’ve seen those Zagg booths at the

I’ve looked at a lot of Bluetooth keyboards and keyboard cases for the three versions of the iPad I’ve owned. Usually I find the on-screen keyboard is okay for a quick email, but I can’t type well enough with it to enter anything longer than that. I don’t often need to enter large amounts of

In the past several weeks, I have been reviewing speakers and headphones, but I am back doing some earphones. I had forgotten – for a short while – how important a good seal is. Unless you have a near-perfect fit, you can kiss any bass goodbye. Such is the case with the Jays a-JAYS Four

Those of you who have followed my posts will know that my first tablet was the original Samsung Galaxy Tab 7″. I thought this was a fantastic form factor: slim, light and portable. It was so convenient with its 3G slot, and because of its small size, you could even throw it into your back

You’re just come in from a night out, and find that someone’s forgotten to leave the front porch light on for you. You can’t find the right key, and you can’t see the keyhole properly.

If you enjoy drawing, doodling or note taking with a stylus on your tablet, you’ve probably run into the issue of not being able to rest your entire hand on the display while drawing. Although some note taking and drawing apps have a palm rejection feature, most do not. For those that don’t, I have

The way we protect our portable technology these days comes in every shape, size and color constructed from every material imaginable; from a thin plastic film to platinum encrusted with diamonds. Well, the folks at Pad & Quill create cases that look like old leather bound books from days gone by. Historically, they have focused

Everyone, except, of course, the tech “pundiots” (pundit idiots) of the world, knows that iPads and iPhones and even the lowly iPod Touch can be used for more than just playing music or games. There are hundreds of thousands of apps out there, as well as cases, speakers, holders, lens attachments, and tripod mounts for

There are two approaches to reviewing earphones or headphones and which direction I take is determined mostly by price. Earphones that sell for less than $100 are judged on a different level than those costing double or triple. The market for the under $100 earphones is huge and only getting bigger, plus the sound quality

It’s not illegal yet to talk on your phone while driving in North Carolina, but it’s still difficult and dangerous to juggle a phone while you’re trying to drive. My Subaru Outback didn’t come equipped with a built-in hands-free Bluetooth system, and I find most Bluetooth headsets uncomfortable to wear. Plus, I find trying to

To case, or not to case, that is the question. I have fallen on both sides of this question, but before I even had my Samsung Galaxy S3, I was looking for a case. Specifically I was looking at Vaja. At the time, they only showed the Grip, but I was still excited. The first Vaja case

I recently broke up with my iPhone 4S and am now shacking up with the Samsung Galaxy S3. I’m on the hunt for a simple, thin cover that will add grip and provide protection for the camera lens. During one of my surfing expeditions, I found the elago G5 Breathe Case on Amazon and ordered one
