Reviews about interesting gadgets, gear, mobile technology and lifestyle products.
Which type of iPhone user are you? One that uses a case or one that doesn’t? I fall in to the last group. I used to be a fanatic about scratches and keeping my device as pristine as possible. I’m not sure when it happened, but at some point I quit caring. That doens’t mean […]

I have another iPhone case for everyone out there that would like to ditch their wallet. This time it’s the KoalaKase, which is the third iPhone wallet case that I’ve tested. The first one was made of hard plastic (Case-Mate ID), the second one was made of silicone (Phone Slipper) and now I’m taking a

The Phone Slipper is the second product that I have reviewed that allows you to combine your iPhone and your wallet. People like me who don’t like to carry a lot of items with us when we are out and about love this stuff. I have been using the Case-Mate ID case since reviewing it

More then just funny capitalization (yes, that’s really how they spell it) Kamiliun uses a modular system to create a flexible backpack/bag system from mix-and-match components. I received the Chicken or the Egg package consisting of a ‘letterbox’ back on the left, above, designed to carry a laptop or other large slab-like objects, and a

The Energizer Light On Demand (LOD) Swing Lamp ($29.99) is an LED lamp with an interesting gimmick: It has a power sensing mode that turns the light source on automatically if power is lost. It can also be angled, looks sleek, and its light source can be slid out and removed from the base. So

The title sums it up, really. I thought it was no big deal at first, until the next day when I tried to watch something hands-free on my new iPhone 3GS… without a stand. The iPhone/iPod Touch are great for watching video on the go, but if you hold it in your hands, it’s not

I recently reviewed the iPhone app from Vook, the ebook format that combines multi-media content with text. I bought two Vook apps and tried them out on my iPod Touch. I did not like these Vooks. I found them buggy and lacking features that I think are very important – like remembering your place when

I will be the first to admit that I’m a crazy cat lady. Between my partner and I, we have three furry feline “kids” – Princess is around ten years old, Sumi is roughly four, and Ninja is the kitten at a year-ish. Yes, I have a kitten named Ninja. And she lives up to

Aerovation is among a small group of companies that has been certified by the TSA to manufacture and market approved cases that allow you to not have to take your laptop out for the trip through the x-ray machine. How do these bags work, and are they worth the effort? We’ll see.

I write this review as I fly at 35,000 feet in the air. I thought this would be the ideal place to review and test the noise-canceling feature of the Able Planet True Fidelity Active Noise Canceling Headphones (NC300B). Technology used in high quality hearing aids is implemented in these headphones to enhance sounds and reduce

In October, Julie had an article about vooks – a melding of ebooks with multimedia content. They can be read on your computer (through paid web access) or on your iPhone. At the time, Julie said there were only four titles available. It seems they are up to six titles now. I was digging around with

One of the powerful things about the Android, in my opinion, is the fact that you are not held captive by one way of getting applications for your phone. The Android Market is very convenient, but you can also go other routes to purchase and install applications. One of the other sources is Handmark. They

When it comes to shooting interesting video, how you get the shot is half the fun. Plus having the right equipment doesn’t hurt either. And with The VholdR ContourHD getting that shot is just as easy as pointing and shooting.

I wonder whether more money is spent on our gadgets or the things we use to hold and protect our gadgets? One of the major players in this arena is Otterbox. They make cases for just about any phone, including iPhones, Blackberrys, Palms as well as iPods.

To preface this review, for months I have been thinking about MacGyvering a device that could safely and securely hold my iPod Touch while I run on the treadmill. So, when Julie posted the Spotlight Gadget blurb on the In Your Face (IYF) iPhone/iPod Touch Stand I quickly asked if they wanted me to try

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of EyeFi. All opinions are 100% mine. This past summer, Shari reviewed the Eye-Fi wireless SD card. After her review, I kept meaning to pick up one for myself so that I could see how well it would work with my new Canon G11 digital

I’ve always wondered why Apple’s Messages app on the iPhone didn’t support IM like iChat. I’ve tried a couple different IM apps on the iPhone, but never found one I liked and for some reason I never saw or heard of BeejiveIM. That is until the recent news stories showing pirated versions of the app popping
My 5 disc Denon CD changer hasn’t been powered on in several years and my 200+ CD collection has been sitting idle on a shelf for just as long. It’s not that I don’t listen to music anymore, just the opposite. Now I listen to everything on my iPod or iPhone through whichever compatible speaker

Even though I hate getting up in the mornings to get ready for work, I have a thing for alarm clocks. It’s not that I enjoy hearing them go off in the morning as much as I just like finding clocks with cool and unique features to make the early morning wake ups a bit

So you look at these and think, “You gotta be kidding.” This is what I have to put up with because my hands are freezing at the office? Do I really have to sacrifice my dignity with these and subject myself to snickers and snorts just because I’m a wimp and hate cold hands?
