What’s new
Brando MP4 Watch
You can clip the new
iPod shuffle to your shirt, but would you rather wear your MP3 player on your wrist? Don’t really care? What if it could record audio and play video too? Do I have your interest now? Then you’ll want to read this review on the MP4 Watch from Brando.
Back in the Swing
Hi gadgeteers! I’m still digging out from under a pile of work (day job) as a result from being off last week for the holidays. Whew! I know it’s a little too late for holiday gift ideas, but I want to tell you all about a set of goodies that I received from Quirkle.com the
Samsung SGH-i320 Windows Mobile Smartphone
I am simply amazed at how cell phones have evolved from the “portable” bag phone to today’s vast selection of featured laden mobile phones. Built in cameras, music players, text messaging and voice dialing are just some of the options available in mix and match feature laden phones. Add to the mix WiFi and Bluetooth, push email, robust calendar and contact management with Internet access plus a large catalog of third party software makes today’s smartphone a compelling reason to leave the laptop at home.

Goodbye 2006, Hello 2007!
Happy New Year! I don’t know about all of you, but I’m so glad to see 2006 bite the dust. It was a mixed year for me. There were some very high points mixed with several extremely low points (one of which is still a mystery). Why is it that we tend to dwell on

Speck Products Active-Sport Armband for the iPod Nano
This is the second Nano sports armband review I’ve done. The first review was on the Nike Sport Armband which has done an excellent job holding my Nano during my running. That being said, my initial impression of the Speck Active-Sport armband for the first generation Nano was that it was too big and bulky. But after using it several weeks it has grown on me enough to replace my Nike armband. An added bonus of the Speck armband is that it includes a sensor pouch to hold the Nike+ sensor.

Marware Sportsuit Sensor+ for Nike+ iPod Sport Kit
The Apple Nike+ iPod system is a great way to track your workouts. All you need is a iPod Nano, the Nike+ iPod Sport Kit, and a pair of Nike+ compatible shoes. Wait. What if you don’t like Nike sneakers or want to use the system for other sports like hiking?

The Gadgeteer Gets a Ferrari
No, not the sportscar! The Ferrari laptop from Acer ;o) A couple of weeks ago I received an email from a person at Microsoft asking if I would be interested in checking out Windows Vista running on Acer’s Ferrari 1000 laptop. I had actually received a release candidate CD of Vista while attending this year’s

Xbox 360 2 in 1 Cooling Stand
With every PC, Game station, entertainment device generation, the goal is making things run faster. As a result cooling is important for the device’s life span. If they don’t stay cool, the device will burn up and then your 100 to 2000 dollar device is a oversized paper weight. Microsoft’s Xbox 360 early on had heat issues with constant use. Several companies have come out with an add-on to the station to help mitigate the heat issues with additional cool fans.

iHome iH5 Clock Radio
I don’t think I am wrong when I make the claim that the Apple iPod has generated more accessories than any other electronic device on the market today. There’s always room for one more iPod accessory right? Today I’m going to review the iHome iH5. This is a clock radio compatible with all iPods that have a docking connector. Hey, you you don’t even need an iPod to use this device. It’s a lot more fun if you do though.

Happy Winner
Charlie Samo of Chula Vista, CA wrote me this morning to let me know that he received the iPod Shuffle that I recently gave away. Unfortunately, he didn’t receive it before Christmas, but he does look happy in the picture that he attached. Enjoy your tunes Charlie! Hey, is that a HoMedic’s QUAD-Roller on your
Looking for a Zune Owner
The fine folks at Speck Products have sent me 4 of their new Zune cases to review. Guess what? I don’t own a Zune. :o) As a result, I’m offering these cases to someone that will agree to review them for me. This person needs to have a Zune (duh!) and a digital camera capable

Vsnotepad – Windows Mobile Utility
In my opinion, this is one of those applications for which all PocketPC and Windows Mobile OS devices are specifically made for…taking notes on the spot! There is nothing more natural to me than to use these devices for such purposes and yet the basic Microsoft notepad is still lacking. I think the proof is in the dozens of notepad replacement products on the market today with each one having their own unique spin on how one takes notes. Vsnotepad from Virtual Spaghetti has its own simple philosophy on note-taking and may just be a worthy contender in this software category.

Ready for a laugh?
I just woke up from a 3.5hr nap (gotta love holiday weekends!) and found an email in my inbox with a link to a new Microsoft site that is taking a different approach to publicizing Windows Mobile. It’s pretty cute. Take a look: http://www.workwherever.com. SHARE ON TwitterFacebookPin It

Vaja RI61 Blackberry 8700 Classic Pouch
The Vaja Classic Pouch for the Blackberry 8700 has been my most anticipated case in quite a long time. This was primarily due to the fact that my stock belt-clip holder has been broken for some time now and the clip was rubbing/marring my device. While being very utilitarian, this horizontal ‘pouch’ has all the Vaja style and craftsmanship that we have come to love & expect.

100 Reviews!
Last night’s review of the MAJESTYK watch marked my 100th review for 2006. Not just 100 reviews posted to the site, but 100 reviews that I have personally written or co-written. I just wanted to share because that is the most reviews that I’ve ever completed in one year’s time. :o) I also wanted to
