Julie’s Gear Diary – 2006-06-28
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

One of our readers sent a link to this blog post and asked (tongue in cheek – I hope) why Julie and I weren’t invited to the T-Mobile Sidekick3 launch party… …along with Jessica Simpson, Eva Longoria, Kristin Cavallari, Christina Milian and anyone else in Hollywood that happened to be free that night. Well! I

Here’s a little gizmo that will help you match paint colors. Just place it over a color that you want to match, press a button and then the name of the Benjamin Moore paint that most closely matches it, will be displayed on the LCD. Too bad it costs $299. SHARE ON TwitterFacebookPin It

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

ePorter Memory Card eReaders
One of the results of my sending out that blanket Linked-In email last month was that I got replies from people I had not corresponded with in ages. One of those respondents, James Porter, happens to be the inventor of a product that I reviewed last year, the handy iPorter xSD Memory Card Case. He

I don’t really care to use a play through style case for my iPod Video or nano. The only cases that I use are for transporting them in a gear bag. I have found a cool site that has all kinds of iPod sleeves. iStyles has iPod Video, 4G iPod and nano sleeves made from
