Stop the presses! I just got an email announcing the Monday release of Arvale II: Ocean of Time! Woo Hoo!! For those of you that don’t remember, Arvale I: Journey of Illusion was the first turn based RPG that I ever played to completion. I have been excitedly waiting for its follow up…and I can’t […]

Is there a law somewhere that says that all laptop bags have to look like laptop bags? You know what I’m talking about, they tend to be black, boring, made for men and as far away from making a fashion statement as humanly possible. I guess this is my cue to tell you that when

When I spotted the VertiGo Bag on the WaterField site, I immediately thought it would make an excellent day bag for my then upcoming UK trip. My much-loved AK Taylor Tote is large enough for my daily gadget carrying needs, but it is not something I would want to chance leaving on a BritRail train.

Cases.com began advertising with us about 2 weeks ago. In case you haven’t seen their skyscraper ads yet, I just wanted to point out that this site is a great place to shop for PDA, iPod and Smartphone cases and accessories. They carry Piel Frama, Covertec, Innopocket, PDair, and other brands. Right now they are

Close to 3 years ago, Michael Shulver wrote an excellent review of the large version WaterField Cargo bag. Since that review, WaterField has updated their Cargo bag to include a leather flap and choice of flap buckle. Since I am not going to re-write Michael’s review, I suggest that you go read it and then

We got back from the UK on Saturday, and other than playing catch-up with almost two weeks worth of ranch business, we are none the worse for wear. While there, we managed to cram in some hideously touristy things like a trip to the Edinburgh Dungeon. One of the fashion trends we noticed in the

As a devoted gadget freak, I have as much interest in ways to carry my assorted gadgets as I have in the gadgets themselves. As soon as a new gadget is in hand, I am off to look for a way to carry it around with me. I often like to have multiple gadgets, so

When I first got my Samsung SPH-i550, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the cradle from its predecessor, the Samsung SPH-i500, could be used for the new model’s syncing and charging. Obviously unlike some Palm OS devices, Samsung had kept the same connector port. This was good news because it meant that technically, anything

The Samsung SPH-i500 is a unique PDA phone in that it uses not one, but two screens for display and data entry. BoxWave is the only company I am aware of that takes into account both of these screens in their line of protectors. Today I will take a look at their ClearTouch Crystal for

Is it Friday yet? It’s been a LONG week for me! I’m still enjoying the ETEN. It actually came in very handy yesterday in a team mtg. I was bored out of my mind, so I logged into my MSN Messenger account and was able to chat with a friend for a few mins. Surfing

Next month (September) it will have been 4 years since my very first SCOTTeVEST product review. I don’t think I’m wrong in saying that since that first review, not a season has gone by that I haven’t worn at least one SCOTTeVEST garment at one time or another. My two favorite jackets have been the

I’m more than a little bummed this morning… I just realized that the MissingSync from MarkSpace (the 3rd party syncing tool that allows you to sync your PIM data on a Pocket PC with your Mac) does not sync Notes (Memos)! ACK! That’s probably the most important use that I have for my Pocket PC.

When I think of headlamps, I get visions of miners and spelunkers – people who are working in the dark that need to have the full use of their hands. People like my uncle Tom Meador, when he was helping to map the Carlsbad Caverns… Photo is courtesy of the book Carlsbad Cavern The Early

I ordered the ETEN M500 Pocket PC Phone Friday from Mad Monkey Boys Gadgets and it arrived bright and early Monday morning. This a cute little phone! At first I was worried about the signal strength that it was reporting, but it appears that the on screen indicator is just not very accurate. We’ll see

Here’s a nifty little gizmo for all the electric guitar players out there, who also happen to be Gadgeteers. The JamPlug FM from DVForge is a module that can turn an FM radio into a guitar amplifier. Those of you that do not have any experience with electric guitars should know that playing most solid

Hi all! I am writing this entry from a £1/20 minutes internet cafe that I found off of the Royal Mile, here in Edinburgh Scotland. You would not believe how ancient the computer I am using is, but I am not complaining – believe me, as this is the first internet access I have had
