Verilux Rise & Shine Deluxe Natural Alarm Clock Bedside Lamp

By / / Uncategorized / , , / 20 Comments

Now here’s a great idea that gave me one of those “Why didn’t I think of that?” feelings when I first saw it. It’s the Rise & Shine Deluxe Natural Alarm Clock Bedside Lamp from Verilux. This company sells a variety of illumination products. I actually reviewed their HappyLite Mini Ultra earlier this month. The Rise & Shine combines a clock, radio and lamp all in one device.

Palm MP3 Player Software Comparison – Palm OS Utility

By / / Uncategorized / , , , / 3 Comments

I use my Palm Tx for a lot of things- even as a fancy alarm clock and mini-MP3 player. I usually use the default player if it does what I want and the installed version of NormSoft’s Pocket Tunes v3 Basic Edition did a decent job for me. Easy to use, fun skins, sleep timer, etc. I was pretty happy with it… until they released Pocket Tunes v4 a few weeks ago.

Throughout the years, we’ve reviewed many different articles of tech-enabled clothing. The most popular creator of these types of garments that comes to mind, is SCOTTeVEST. We’ve reviewed their jackets, hats, pants and shirts. In almost all of the reviews of their products, I’ve mentioned at least once that I wish they would consider offering

Well ok, it might not be quite best friend friendly, but it tries. I was surprised when I recently asked people for ideas and suggestions on what they think would make The Gadgeteer better, that several people said: A mobile version of the site. We’ve actually had a mobile version for a couple of years

Guard ID Vault

By / / Reviews / / 12 Comments

My first impressions of the Guard ID Vault were good; it looks like what it is supposed to do. Lock up your personal user information in a unit that looks like a lock. The unit plugs into a free USB port on your computer and stores your user names and passwords, so that it is not necessary to reenter this information each time you visit that particular web site.

Elgato EyeTV Hybrid TV Tuner Dongle

By / / Uncategorized / , , , , / 6 Comments

I’m a big fan of USB gadgets. From the whimsical to the practical, I find them all fascinating. When I saw that Elgato condensed one of their EyeTV tuners into a USB dongle, I began to daydream of watching live network TV while sitting in a coffee shop or in a laundromat. “Never again will I miss an important football game!” I thought to myself while handing over my credit card.

Noreve Archos 604 Tradition Leather Case

By / / Uncategorized / , / 6 Comments

I’m very careful with my tech-toys and do my best to keep them
all in pristine condition. My Archos 604 video player is no
different. The moment I decided to purchase a 604, I ordered a
Brando screen protector (so it would be here when the video player
arrived) and began looking for the perfect case. Sadly, since
Archos is not nearly as main-stream as iPods, there were few
choices…. Of the three I found (Noreve,
Proporta, and Archos), Noreve looked to be the
best of the lot.

Palm Treo 680 Smartphone

Palm seems to be doing something right given the fact that their Treo line of smartphones
has become hugely popular. I mean, I don’t think I’m wrong when I say that the Treo is probably one of the most recognizable mobile phones on the planet these days. Turn on the TV and you’ll spot this phone all over the place. After all, doesn’t Jack Bauer of the show 24 use one?
