Reviews about interesting gadgets, gear, mobile technology and lifestyle products.
A few months ago, I reviewed case-mate’s Walkabout premium leather slipper case for the iPad. It was a very nice leather slipper case that provided good protection during travels but not during use. My biggest worry with my iPad is not bad things happening during transit but while in use or sitting around the house. …
Lots of passwords and private information? Use a lot of different computers? Having trouble keeping them all straight and secure? Splashdata’s SplashID Key Safe may be your solution!
There are a lot of stands for iPads. Some are metal, some plastic, some cheaper, some more expensive – some are even made by Apple. A lot of them are bulky, which makes it hard to take them along in your gear bag. While digging around looking for interesting news items, I stumbled upon the …
If you think you need to run ethernet cables from your router upstairs to a device downstairs, you might be in the market for the ConneXt 200W-A1 from innoband. You can save yourself some grief and money using this wireless ethernet bridge. It really doesn’t get any easier than this.
When my kids were younger, I spent vast amounts of money on juice boxes of all kinds, because when a kid is thirsty you gotta have some juice that’s easy to deal with “on the go”. Trust me, spill a sippy-cup of Apple juice all over your car seats and you’ll be making a bee-line …
As the parent of a preschooler, I know I’ve seen things like this before. But none of them had epic names like the “Galaxy Beetlestar”. This I had to see.
I’ve seen lots of clocks in my day – even a clock that ran on power it somehow got from a raw potato. Bedol has an alarm clock that runs on tap water. You don’t have to put anything in the water – no salts or anything – just tap water. It sounds like a fun …
Apple has docks for all their iDevices. So obviously they created a new dock for the iPad as well. It’s priced at $29 direct from Apple.
DYMO is known as the business card scanning company. Their CardScan App for the iPhone brings this capability to the iPhone, at least for those in the United States. I put the product through its paces on some real and sample business cards, and overall was very pleased with the results.
I don’t think I have to tell anyone reading this that gas prices suck. And they’re making me motion sick as well. Up and down, up and down, up and down. What was $2.89 a gallon when I headed out one day could be $2.67 two days later. Just yesterday, we left our small hamlet …
Camera straps are accessories you usually do not think about, but Capturing Couture certainly did. They have created several lines of unique camera straps that can give your DSLR or point and shoot camera character and personality to match. Their fabrics and designs are beautiful and eye catching. These straps combine beauty with function. Most …
The Holy Grail. The perfect cherry blossom. A four leaf clover. The perfect bluetooth headset. *BUZZ* “What are things that are searched for?” “That is correct!” Personally I’m interested in the headset, but I wouldn’t mind finding a four leaf clover. On my quest I’ve found headsets that were almost perfect, but failed for one …
As I’m sure you’ve noticed, there are a large variety of iPad stands on the market. There are metal stands, wood stands, plastic stands, and cases that convert into stands. Green Figure makes the iHolder stand, which allows you to convert your iPad into a tiny iMac twin. Pyramid Distribution offered to send an iHolder …
Last Winter I had reviewed the Moshi Voice Control Alarm Clock and have been using it ever since. I’ve come to rely on the ability to control my alarm clock with my voice. It’s no longer just a novelty for me. That’s why I was super excited when I learned that Moshi was offering a …
As many of you who read The Gadgeteer know, I am a bit of a fanatic about gear bags and have reviewed my fair share of them. From the Ellington Europa Field Bag (no longer manufactured) to the Duluth Trading Fire Hose Bag, I have tried many bags over the years. All of them have, …
