Make your gloves iPhone friendly
If you’ve read some of my iPhone related reviews, you’ll know that I have a love / hate relationship with the phone. It mainly has to do with the fact that there are no call end and answer buttons on the phone. You have to use your finger, which isn’t a big deal during the

Movie Wedge iPhone Stand Review
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.

BlackBerry NAO Music Station
iPod speaker systems are wonderful because they can contain 1000’s of songs in such a tiny package. The only problem with them is trying to control the docked iPod across the room by a small handheld remote control. How the heck can you navigate to your favorite album without being able to see the display?

Apple Magic mouse is not so magical for me
I’m extremely happy with my new 27″ iMac (quad-core i7) because is fast and quiet. I wasn’t sure how well I would adjust to the wireless keyboard and the new magic mouse. I’m so accustomed to a full sized keyboard and Logitech MX Revolution mouse, that both felt really awkward to use at first. I
