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

There are times when not having a flashlight handy can lead to disappointment. For instance, there was the time when Steve, Sarah and I were visiting Volcano National Park. As we were riding down the road toward where the lava flows are located, we made an impromptu stop at what turned out to be the

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

How many of your mobile phone plan’s minutes have you already used this month? How many do you have left? If you are like me, then you never really think about it – unless your bill runs higher than expected. If you are using a Pocket PC Phone Edition, then you might appreciate an application

I love old muscle cars, but there are some creature comforts missing that can only be found in modern automobiles – like cold air-conditioning, decent gas mileage and doors that properly shut. That’s why I love the current trend of updated retro-rides. I’ll take one of each, please… Attitude and all the modern conveniences; does

Bluetooth headset reviews have been a long time coming from me, because I use a carrier that has been notoriously slow to release compatible devices. In late 2005 the stars aligned and Sprint finally offered the PPC-6700, a BT enabled PDA phone which I was eager to purchase. All that remained was to find a

I posted my first ever Gadgeteer video review last night. I’ll admit that it is pretty lame, but being my first effort, I don’t feel THAT bad about it. I’m curious to read some feedback on what you guys think of it. Is this something you would like to continue to see? I don’t think

Do you think wristwatches are going the way of the dinosaur? Now that everyone and their grandma has a cellphone, it seems that a watch is no longer a necessary item to own. At least that is what I read in an article the other day. Personally, I love watches. All kinds of watches. Even

What are everyone’s thoughts about Apple’s new hardware / software announcements this past Tuesday? It seems like most people were excited about the new MacBook Pro notebooks way more than the new Core Duo iMacs. I’m just the opposite. I really wish I could upgrade my 6 month old 20″ iMac for one of the

The house that we live in was built in 1928, but it had a major remodel in 1995. One of the many selling points when I purchased it in 1997 was the built-in stereo speaker system throughout, which was controlled by a multi-knobbed box which was attached to the wall by a bundle of cables.

A few years ago I suggested to my Dad that he purchase a WebTV box so that he could surf the Internet and send emails. Not being very computer literate, I thought this would be a good solution for him. It turns out that I was wrong. Mainly because the service was slow (dial up)
