CellPoint Flamingo Bluetooth Headset
I have been on a quest to find the most comfortable Bluetooth headset on the market. After reviewing a handful of contenders, my current favorite has been Tekkeon’s ezTalker Mini. I was told by one of our readers that I needed to definitely check out CellPoint’s Flamingo headset. I took that person’s advise and obtained a sample, which I’ve been testing for the past week or so. Has it turned out to be more comfy than the Tekkeon? Keep reading to find out.

Tekkeon myTalker ET7000
I’m sure you’ve lived this scenario… You’re listening to your
iPod through headphones or earbuds, and your cell phone rings. The
first thing you probably do is pause the music on your iPod,
disengage from the earbuds or headphones, put on a Bluetooth
headset, or just answer the phone. What if there was an accessory
for your iPod that simplified this process dramatically? There is
such a product: The myTalker ET7000 from Tekkeon.

My iMac is back home safe and sound! You don’t know how much you appreciate a 20 inch display until you have to use one that is only 12 inches. I’m curious, how many of you out there have a dual display setup? Those of you that do, how do you work? Do you only

Imation USB Clip Flash Drive
Has anyone else noticed the way that carabiners, once a tool used mainly by mountain climbers and other outdoorsy types have slowly been working their way into the mainstream? I have several water bottles with them attached, a pen, and even a travel wallet. I suppose it was only a matter of time before someone attached a carabiner to a flash memory drive, and this is actually an application that makes sense.

I had to drive my iMac to the doctor Monday. Lucky for me it was still under the 1yr warranty. Just barely though. On 7/7, I will have had it for an entire year. Time sure does fly! I’m also lucky that there is an authorized Apple repair store in Bloomington, 30 miles away. I

Mobile Edge Milano Tote Laptop Bag
It wasn’t long ago that I reviewed the Geneva Tote Laptop Bag, an experience which marked my introduction to Mobile Edge’s reasonably priced offerings. Today I am going to look at their very popular Milano Tote, a bag that is so popular it seems to be continuously sold out on their site as well as that of several suppliers.

Brando USB Mouse with Laser Pointer and Thermometer
When I am working on my laptop, there is no doubt that using a supplemental mouse is much easier than trying to navigate with the Fujitsu P2110’s foam covered peg. After a day of wearing my pointer finger to a nub, I mentioned to Julie that I needed to buy a travel mouse. She got

pzizz Personal Life Coaching System
Working 2 full time jobs (Cummins and The Gadgeteer) can sometimes take a toll on my sanity. There’s nothing that says stress, like spending an 8hr day supporting CAD users all over the world and then coming home and having to write about the latest gadget or gizmo to show up in my mailbox. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining about playing with and writing about gadgets at all. It’s just a lot of work and like all of us, work can cause a real energy drain at times. That’s why any product that claims to help a person de-stress and recharge, is a product that I want to test.

It’s a sad sad day… I just read that LEGO plans to close its U.S. manufacturing plant in Conneticut. It is going to move production to Mexico. LEGO is also going to layoff 1200 of its workforce worldwide over the next 3 years. I have several buckets of regular bricks (I never really got into
