Over the years, we have reviewed quite a few laptop stands and laptop desks. Most of these products have been constructed of metal, plastic or a combination of both. I think today’s review of the LapDawg will be the first wooden laptop stand / desk that I’ve reviewed.

Earlier this week for my day job (Cummins Inc.), I had to give a presentation of an application called WinBatch to a group of people from China. WinBatch is a simple macro language for Windows computers. It allows you to write automated programs that mimic a user sitting at a keyboard using any application. At

We all know or remember seeing someone at one time or another that has worn a medical alert ID bracelet or necklace. I think I vaguely recall my Dad buying one for my Mom when she was first diagnosed with Diabetes. These days you don’t really see people wearing this method of medical identification. I don’t know if they are
just considered old fashioned or if the companies that make them have stopped promoting them. That’s why I was
intrigued when the folks at CWI Medical asked me if I would review the MedicTag.

Here we go with phone give-away #2. This time it’s the i-mate JAQ3. This is a brand new unlocked quad band GSM phone with the original box and all the included goodies. I used this phone for a few days and decided that it wasn’t for me. But maybe it’s for you… If you want

I stood in line at the post office this afternoon to ship the Sony Ericsson w810i phone off to Isreal to the winner of last week’s give away. My Treo 750v helped me kill the 30 minutes or so that I had to wait till my turn at the counter. At the moment, I’m hooked

And now for a review that isn’t quite a gadget, but since a lot of gadgeteers might be able to use it, I thought what the heck. First of all, how many of you have a counter top or cabinet crammed full of snack bags that require clips to keep them closed and their contents fresh? If you’re anything like me, you have more packages then clips and have to resort to double clipping or using weird items as clip substitutes.

I just had my best bud help me choose a random winner for the Sony Ericsson w810i phone give-away. The winner is Shimon Shnitzer of ShSh Software fame (Wow, I wonder if that means he’ll give me free apps for the rest of my life? Just kidding). Congrats Shimon! For everyone else that tried, don’t

Have you ever left your house, gotten a few miles away and asked yourself or a passenger in your car, did I close the garage door? Maybe you have even turned around to check, just to put your mind at ease. I know that I have. To be completely honest, I have done this numerous times. To the point that it is a running joke between my wife and I, since I often ask her if I closed the garage door.

Continuing with my weekly mobile phone mini-reviews, my latest 2 day phone stint has been with the i-mate JAQ3. I received this device directly from i-mate after attending the Mobius Boston event last fall. This Windows Mobile 5.0 for Pocket PC device appears to have a lot going for it given its impressive feature set.

If you are a photographer or snapshot enthusiast, you probably often find yourself in situations where a tripod would come in handy. This is especially true when you wish to include yourself in a group picture. The problem is that lugging around a tripod everywhere you go can be somewhat inconvenient. What if you had a tripod that stowed easily in a gear bag and could stick to almost anything? The MonsterPod claims to do just that. Let’s see if the claims are true.

I’ve started a weekly feature where I will post a mini review on a phone that I’ve used for 2 days instead of my usual 2 weeks. These phones are typically not the latest and greatest models (except for my first review of the HTC S620 and this week’s review of the i-Mate JAQ3). They

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.

What kind of mobile phone person are you? Smartphone or feature phone? I’m the type of person that likes to take a vacation from smartphones once in awhile and use a feature phone instead. My current vacation in feature phone land has been with the Sony Ericsson w810i. This is a great little candy bar
