Over the years, I’ve tried quite a few devices that allow you to watch and listen to your digital media through your television set. Some of these devices have included WiFi, some included hard drives, some required that you stream the content from a computer to the player and some required that you convert the content to a format that the player could handle. For one reason or another, I stopped using all of those devices except for the AppleTV. I really like the AppleTV’s user interface, but have never really liked the fact that I have to convert the files and then ‘send’ them from my desktop computer to the AppleTV in the living room. I’m all about simplicity, and while the AppleTV comes close, it doesn’t quite get there. I think I’ve found a device that does get there tho. It’s the WD TV HD Media Player from Western Digital.

Do you live or work in an area with mediocre signal coverage for your mobile phone carrier? I know how frustrating it can be to have a weak signal, receive a call and have it drop right in the middle of an important conversation. Been there, done that… That’s why I continue to look for inexpensive ways to boost my AT&T signal. My latest potential solution is the Cell Ranger PORT from Mogo Wireless, Inc.

When my wife and I found out it was available for our Touch and iPhone we jumped at the chance to try it out.

I’ve been a tea drinker my whole life. No stinky coffee for me thank you very much! ;o) I was raised on cheap Lipton bagged tea. But as an adult, I discovered loose tea and am always trying new varieties of green, black and white teas. To fix a cup of loose tea, you need some type of infuser that will hold the leaves as they brew. Gamila Company’s Teastick Gem is just such an infuser. Let’s give it a try…

I enjoy listening to music at my day job, but there are a couple issues with regular earphones that make this activity less than ideal. For one thing, it seems like someone is always calling me on the phone or walking up to my desk, requiring me to pause the music and pull the earbuds out of my ears in order to talk to them. Then there’s the issue of ear comfort… it doesn’t take long for most earbuds to hurt my ears. This is especially true of in-ear style buds. That’s why I was really looking forward to reviewing a set of bone conduction headphones, when I received a pair from Audio Bone. Let’s see if they solve both of my problems…
