That said, there is a huge market for less expensive

I’m not a gamer. There, I said it. I think the last time I was addicted played any game was World of Warcraft with my younger brothers in law for a few months, but had to quit cold turkey in 2004. Nowadays, with kids and less free time, we MIGHT play a few rounds of

You see a lot of people going about their work or leisure activities wearing earbuds or headphones. Listening to music constantly is great, except when it interferes with your ability to do your job or to drive, bicycle, or run or play sports safely.

When it comes to wallets, do you consider yourself a traditionalist or modernist? Traditionalists tend to choose wallets made of leather, nylon or canvas style materials, while modernists are up for plastic, stainless steel, sailcloth, tyvek and more.

Earlier this year, I reviewed the Otterbox Commuter and Commuter TL cases from Otterbox for another website. And interestingly, I came to the realization that I liked the less expensive Commuter TL case over the regular Commuter case.

You’re probably in the same boat, or cube anyway, when it comes to keyboards. I’ve tried a variety and thought the Arctic K381 which claims to be “perfect for comfortable typing” and allows “continuous typing without fatigue” was worth a try.

If you much prefer the over-the-head type of headset, skip this review. I’m one of those people. I wear glasses and I never found the behind-the-ear style compelling enough to try. But try I did.

Odds are that if you’ve ever been to a beach, you’ve probably picked up some seashells and possibly brought them home as a souvenir. And if you’ve spent any amount of time picking up shells, you’ve probably had one wash away in the tide just as you reached for it, or found yourself with sandy

There are a lot of options for covering up and protecting your iPad. Some people opt for book-style cases, some for sleeves, and others for nothing. We’ve seen everything from a clear sticker to cases with built-in keyboards to wooden boxes. I’ve opted for just a TPU back cover from Belkin, but that leaves my
