Palm Treo 750v Windows Mobile Smartphone
Updated with software info…
I’ve been a Palm Treo junkie since March of 2005 when I began my odyssey into the world of smartphones. It was a strange journey that began with a Sprint Treo 650 that had been hacked to work on the Verizon network. Then I switched carriers from Verizon to Cingular and purchased an unlocked 650, which I’ve been using as my main device ever since. In the past year, I have seen Palm release the 700p and 700w for non-GSM carriers.

Vaja 15″ Messenger Bag
At least once or twice throughout the years, I have mentioned to John Hindaly of Vaja that it would be fantastic if they would consider adding a line of gear bags. All this time, I’ve been waiting patiently for them to create one of their masterpieces… I’m happy to say that my (and your) wait is now over. Vaja has just announced 3 new gear bags. A 15″ wide messenger, a 15″ vertical messenger and a slim messenger bag. They sent me the 15″ vertical messenger bag tonight. I’m honored that Vaja chose The Gadgeteer as the first review site that they’ve sent a sample to!

3rd time’s a charm?
After over a week playing phone tag with tier 2 support at Apple, I’ve finally received a resolution to my 2nd 24″ iMac humming issue. The resolution is that they are going to send me iMac #3. Here’s hoping this one does not have the same defect! My fingers and toes are crossed! SHARE ON

Vosonic VP3320 XS-Drive
I have found what may very well be the perfect device for unloading flash memory cards on the road. The VP3320 XS-Drive by Vosonic has every feature that I need as a photographer and includes at least one seemingly inconsequential feature that you might not know you need … but you do.

Wicked Lasers Nexus 95mW
Just how geeky are you? Do you happen to have a laser pointer in your gadget bag or drawer? Ok, give yourself 5 geek points. Do you use this pointer for tasks other than pointing out mundane details during presentations at your day job? Give yourself 5 more geek points. Do you pester your cat by shining the laser on the floor beside it, to get him to chase the tiny point of light like some type of alien rodent? Ok, no points for that, because that’s just mean ;o) Can your laser beam its dot up to 38 miles and burn holes in black trash bags? I didn’t think so… I win!

Guess what I just picked up from my local Fedex office… An unlocked Treo 750v that I purchased from PHONESourceUSA.com. I’m going to see if I can make the switch from my trusty Treo 650 to this brand new Windows Mobile 750. Do you think I can? I thought I’d share my experience opening the

Philips 7FF1AW/37 Digital Photo Display
Over the years, I have had the opportunity to review 4 different digital photo frames. The last such review was the Tricod Frame just this past summer. Although I did like this device, I ended up giving it to my Dad, because it lacked one feature that I’ve always longed for in a digital photo frame. Today I’m going to tell you about the 7FF1 (what a wonderful product name) Digital Photo Display from Philips. Guess what? It has the feature I’ve been wishing for. You’ll just have to continue reading to find out what that feature is…

Voyager – Pocket PC File Explorer
Today’s review is on a category of software that isn’t very exciting or sexy but something that everyone who really uses their PocketPC device needs each and every day…it’s the File Explorer utility. If you are like me, you are constantly working on the internals of your PDA, moving files between cards and internal memory, accessing hidden registry files or just doing some old fashion housekeeping. I believe a truly great File Explorer can be worth every cent if it makes these functions easier for me!

Fall has arrived! The temps here in Southern Indiana are dipping below freezing at night. Brrrr. It’s time to switch out all your short sleeve shirts for ones with long sleeves. If you’re looking for some new ones to buy, you might want to take a 2nd look at the SeV Performance T-Shirt from SCOTTeVEST.
