You’ve really got to love Indiana weather. Just yesterday, it was 50 degrees and sunny. Then this morning, I wake up to 28 degrees and a couple of inches or so of snow on the ground. I’ll admit that it was very pretty to look at. At least from inside a warm house. I think […]

One of the necessary evils of migrating from a CD player to a digital music player is the tedious process of extracting music from already owned CDs. Sure, anyone with a computer can use one of the available music extraction software programs, many of which are free. But for those that don’t have access to

Making good on an offer that was extended at Mobius, Microsoft has sent an HTC Universal that I will be using as my daily driver for the next month.

Remember my review of Bluetake’s i-PHONO mini BT450Rx Bluetooth stereo headphones? No? Ok, go read it here first and then come back to read this review of the BT450Tx.

It has been over three years since I reviewed the ACM, a handy gadget for people that don’t carry a conventional wallet, but that want to keep their money and cards organized. Since then, new models have been introduced which feature different colors and finishes, as well as a larger version which can hold twice

USB Flash drives are convenient little gadgets that are extremely useful. I’ve heard them touted as the floppy disk of the 21st century and have to agree. I can’t even remember the last time I used an actual floppy. None of my current computers even have a floppy drive. The only problem with these handy

Name: Alan Ng Location: Singapore Hi! I’m Alan from Singapore. I’m 21 years old now. First, I have to say that I’m a gadget freak. My primal obsession with gadgets has made me spend lots of money on them. (Sometimes my mom nags me for that.) Currently on my inventory list, I have gadgets from

I shipped the OQO 01+ back to Dynamism yesterday. Now I’m completely Microsoft free at home and it’s making me a little nervous. I need to get an inexpensive laptop for product review purposes. Maybe something from Averatec, Dell or HP. I don’t want to send a lot of cash, since it’s not going to

The smartphone designers at HTC recently introduced their fourth-generation product, code-named “Tornado” and running the latest Windows Mobile operating system. Like previous generations, the Tornado is (or at least will be) available under many different brand names including those of major wireless carriers; i-mate is among the first to offer it for consumer purchase. i-mate
It was about a year ago when I reviewed the Future Sonics Ears Model EM3 Universal Fit Professional Earphones and found that although they didn’t “look like much”, they definitely had a great sound. Well, as I have found with other products which I have reviewed in the past, a year can sometimes make a

Last summer I had the opportunity to review a very small Windows XP computer from Sony. The Vaio VGN-U71P made a good travel companion, but wasn’t perfect due to the fact that you had to also pack a folding keyboard, AC adapter brick and docking station with you if you wanted access to all its

I have reviewed four different Bluetooth mice in the last couple of years. First there was Bluetake’s BT500. Next it was the Mouse BT from MacMice, then ThinkOutside’s Stowaway Travel Mouse and finally Bluetake’s BT510. At the end of each of my reviews I always had the same complaint regarding the fact that there wasn’t

Don Kobes sent this to me tonight, asking that I make you all aware of a scam site he has discovered: “24/7 Downloads purports to be a legal music downloading site. However, my purchase returned software and a website that ultimately was so codified that it took me a day or two to determine it

In September 2005, my daily driver PDA was an HP iPAQ hx-4700 and my mobile phone was the Samsung i550, a Palm OS device that was never technically released in the US. I thought that I was satisfied with the combination of the two devices – enjoying the best of both PDA worlds in a

We have had several WiFi finder reviews posted here on The Gadgeteer. They are great little tools that make finding a WiFi hotspot an easy task. At least easier than the chore of booting up your laptop and checking manually for available networks. Of the 3 reviews (Canary, Kensington and Smart ID) that I’ve personally
