I own two cats, Wylie (who behaves as though he’s the Pharaoh of Egypt) and Hammy (given to me by a homeless person) who is a spaz. I love cats. I also like dogs and I have two of those as well. But one thing I hate is cleaning up after my cats. I have

Wearable Inc. has put up a barebones website for their new AirStash device, which is billed as a “wireless media server” for mobile devices (the iPhone is mentioned specifically). Not much information is given, other than the fact that the AirStash will be officially unveiled at CES 2010 — no price, no availability date, no

I’ve watched entirely too many scary movies this past weekend, so when I saw the PeepHole Viewer from Solutions, I thought it looked like a great idea. It’s a device that replaces the existing peephole in your door and displays the image on a 2¼”x1½” LCD screen that is powered by 2 AA batteries. It

I seem to be obsessed by USB flash drive jewelry, but apparently I’m not the only one. ThinkGeek has a man’s watch with an 8 GB USB drive hidden on the back of the watch face. The watch is black polyurethane with a stainless steel “frame” around the watch face and a mineral crystal. In

Man, this review HURTS me to write. I’m a Microsoft fangirl. I have been since before I bought my first computer with 4 mb of memory and a 40 mb hard drive that had to be partitioned so the operating system (DOS) could handle it. I even LOVE Vista. I often liked the way Mac

I’m not a huge water drinker, but the person I live with doesn’t go anywhere without a bottle of water. We buy multi-packs of Aquafina and other name brand bottled water when it is on sale. Even though we recycle the empty plastic bottles, I still feel guilty buying them. That’s why I’ve been trying

I like this laptop stand / cooler from Targus mainly for its simple yet funky design. The CoolWave is designed as its name suggests, it has a wave-like shape that allows hot air from the laptop’s base to quickly dissipate. It has non-skid feet and slots for routing cables. The sub $15 price tag is

Just like spending time in Australia, the BottleMate just makes things fun. The BottleMate looks like a cross between a fingernail clipper and fifteenth century torture device. Its purpose, however, is to access necessary liquid contained in otherwise locked up containers. Ok it’s a beer bottle opener. But it’s fun. SHARE ON TwitterFacebookPin It

Happy New Year! Now that 2009 is over, I thought it only fitting that we take a look back to see what were the most read reviews here on The Gadgeteer last year. Some of them really surprised me, not for their subject matter, but because they weren’t even written during last year at all.

A few years ago, making scrapbooks from photos seemed to be a national obsession.
