Wow, my Friday just got a little better. I found out that we are part of CNET’s News.com’s Blog 100. I wouldn’t have even known about it, but happen to see The Gadgeteer mentioned on a list on Geek.com’s site. Another reason why this Friday is good a particularly good one is that I’m on

Just when you thought the Nano was the ultimate in cool, there comes along a media player which has a price tag of $50,000! You can choose a yellow or white gold shell, with diamonds. I think I’ll add one to my “things I’ll never own” list. SHARE ON TwitterFacebookPin It

The other day I was commenting to Julie that as SD memory has become less expensive and available in larger quantities, I seem to have amassed quite the collection of SD cards. I have every denomination from 16MB to 2GB, but the only cards I really ever use are the 2GB in my iPAQ, the

Today I got my black U2 edition iPod, and I have managed to load everything on it, while keeping it somewhat hermetically sealed. It is soooo pretty, but I know the minute I start really using it I will probably scratch the heck out of it. :0( Yes, you saw that right – I still

I’m beginning to anticipate an ending to my ultimate gear bag quest! I’ve realized that the style of bag that works best for me is the messenger style. I never thought this would be the case, but since the Timbuk2 review, I’ve found it to be true. Now I’m on the hunt for the best

It’s been almost two years since Julie reviewed Scott Jordan‘s first venture into the world of luxury leather outerwear, the SeV Three.0 Limited Edition Leather Jacket.

I just placed an order for my first iPod. Yep – I too have been assimilated. I didn’t go for white though – I got the sexified black U2 special edition with the color screen. Ooooo…. …and here I was thinking that I wouldn’t need the $50 coupon for their Complete U2 digital box

Yes, yet again – you can call me “fickle girl”. I have been greatly enjoying my Samsung i550 (see previous diary entries), but my interest was piqued by the elusive JasJar, and then I was finally swayed by the Sprint PPC-6700. Or at least, I think I will be if I can actually get my

A couple years ago, we had a hot water pipe spring a leak under the sink of our upstairs garage apartment. We had no idea that the leak had occurred because there wasn’t an obvious drip down the inside walls of the garage. In fact, there was no warning at all. Had we discovered the

What was the first television show to pique your interest in Gadgets? For me, it would have to have been Get Smart, and of course my favorite character was Agent 86 – Maxwell Smart, played by Don Adams. I just got an MSNBC alert that he has died at age 82, and that notice has
