Early last year, when the first rumors began to swirl that HTC would be introducing a Pocket PC Phone Edition made with the mini-laptop form factor of the CLIÉ UX50 and Zaurus SL-C3100, my interest was immediately piqued. After all, I had long been bemoaning the fact that as of yet there were no similarly […]

Are you the type of gadget nut that goes completely over the top by customizing your PDAs, mobile phones or handheld game machines with 3rd party replacement buttons, antennas, shells, etc?

I’ve recently become interested in Bluetooth headsets. Why? Two reasons mainly. The first reason is that my phone of choice right now is the Treo 650. It’s not the most svelte of phones… Being able to keep the phone in my bag or pocket, while holding a conversation is preferred to holding it in my

Brando sent me a product that doesn’t quite fit into what we typically review here on The Gadgeteer. But, being the good sport that I am, I thought I’d give it a try anyway. The Stretching Hula Hoop is sort of a cross between a Slinky and an old school hula hoop from the late

I’ve been eagerly awaiting the appearance of cases for the HTC Apache since I bought mine, and I am happy to report that they are finally starting to appear. That’s not to say that pouch-style versions haven’t been available for some time, but what I really wanted was a case in which I could keep

Name: Gregory Guida Location: British Channel Islands I started being interested by gadgets more than thirty years ago when the first electronic products appeared.

Weekend Grab Bag (Updated as the weekend progresses…) Justin Blanton has created a page that expains how to use your Windows Mobile Smartphone as a Bluetooth modem under Mac OS X. This is something I’ve not yet tried to do with my Treo 650. Anyone out there with a Treo and a Powerbook tried something

When I think of well-designed, stylish laptop bags that are made from quality materials, there are a couple of names which always come to mind: Tom Bihn, RoadWired and Waterfield. Well, now I can add Crumpler to that list. Crumpler bags should be somewhat familiar to Gadgeteer readers because Julie and I did a joint

Are you the type of guy (or even a gal for that matter…) that carries an over stuffed wallet in their pocket (or purse)? Do you cram your wallet full of receipts, money, business cards, credit cards, scraps of paper, etc? If you answered YES to either of these questions, then it just might be
Is it just me, or does there seem to be some excitement in the air these days? Maybe it’s just that my Winter blahs are fading as Spring time approaches. Or maybe it’s all these gadget teasers that seem to be popping up and taunting me with their promises of something cool and drool worthy.

Rhinoskin has long been known for their rugged PDA cases. Back in the day, you weren’t a ‘real’ gadgeteer unless you had a Rhinoskin Titanium case for your PDA. These days, Rhinoskin sells protective cases for all types of small electronics. Sorry, no Titanium as far as I can tell, but how about a combo

There seems to be no shortage of memory card readers that will handle Compact Flash and SD/MMC. But when a few of the more specialized memory cards get thrown in the mix, buying the right reader can get a little trickier. Today I am going to take a look at the USB Brando 32-in-1 Card

As with other high capacity, hard disk drive based portable audio players, the Toshiba Gigabeat F40 allows you to consolidate a vast catalog of music within its relatively diminutive dimensions.

I received the new PDair aluminum case for the PPC-6700 yesterday. I’ll have a full review ready in the next couple of weeks, but I just wanted to post a couple of pictures for people who have been wondering whether they might like it or not. When the case is closed, there is no access

A couple of years ago I was flipping through one of the catalogs I regularly receive, and I saw a backpack that was made out of an Asian-motif silk brocade. The bag was pretty, feminine, had lots of pockets – and had it not actually been a diaper bag complete with changing pad, I might
