It’s been nearly a year since I’ve carried a Windows Mobile device as my everyday phone. Back then it was the Pantech Matrix Pro. Today it’s the LG eXpo for AT&T. Like the Pantech, the eXpo has a slide out qwerty keyboard. But the eXpo has some other surprises as well. I’m going to use

The DLO WallDock iPod Charger is a simple and effective gadget for anyone with one or more iPods/iPhones. This is a brain dead simple device weighing not much more than an iPod cable. No manual, no setup, nothing to configure – plug it into a wall socket and you’re ready to go.

I am a master of multiple monitors. At my last job, I wrangled my way into having a total of four LCDs connected to my workstation, which was pretty fantastic for multitasking. The downside was that such a configuration requires more than one video card (usually). Your run-of-the-mill video card has either one or two

One of the most useful things about my old Palm handhelds was the ability to take notes while on the move and bring them over to my Mac to finish them. I was disappointed in the iPhone for not having serious copy/paste/selection tools until the release of OS 3. It took a few weeks after

For me, winter weekends mean staying indoors and either reading a book, watching some TV, playing my ukulele, surfing for gadget news or playing iPhone games. Today I’ve been trying out four different puzzle games that have helped me waste a large chunk of my Sunday afternoon – but in a good way 😉

The gateway between your home/office network and the rest of the internet is your router, and in most cases it’s a very ‘dumb’ device. That’s started to change, with routers becoming more useful, and I started thinking about getting an upgrade. I’ve been using a Linksys WRT-54GL with DD-WRT firmware for the last couple months

Work has recently replaced my at&t BlackBerry Bold with a Verizon BlackBerry Storm 2. Even before receiving my new device, I began researching which screen protector and cases I wanted to protect my fancy new tech-toy. To be honest, I typically begin this type of search at Brando for screen protectors and Vaja for cases.

When it comes to gadgets, I think product design is a key area to think about. Some people might argue that build quality is more important and ultimately, I may tend to agree to an extent. However, when a gadget has an eye-catching design that really turns heads, then it certainly has to be worth a second look!
