Here is a review of a product that doesn’t appear to be all that exciting until you really require a use for it. It’s the latest version of a USB 2.0 to IDE / SATA cable from Brando. The first such cable I reviewed was back in 2004. It would only allow you to connect a 3.5 inch IDE drive to your PC or Mac. One year later, the 2nd version of this cable added the ability to connect 2.5 inch drives. Earlier this Spring, yet another iteration of this cable added SATA drive capability. And now the latest version adds one touch backup and a new compact adapter design.

I have a couple of products that require a volunteer reviewer. Are you up to the task? As always, the requirements are: 1. That you have a digital camera 2. That you own the product necessary to conduct the review 3. That you take nice clear pictures of the product being reviewed 4. That you

Sweltering Sunday in Southern Indiana It was 99 degrees here before noon. Can you say Global Warming? ;o) On a day like this you need a good fan. So I broke out one that Brando had sent me to try. The Fantastic USB LED Fan. For $10 you get a little desk fan, powered by

Hi all! We just returned from a week in chilly San Francisco, Carmel and Monterey! We left the 100º weather in Texas and nearly froze in the California…it just didn’t seem natural for it to be so chilly in what are typically the dog days of summer! When we stepped off the plane tonight to

My dad is getting married in a few months, and the ceremony is
to be held outside far from a power outlet. He wanted to play some
music at the ceremony, but there was no way to run any kind of
power lead to a set of speakers. This is where my hunt began for
the perfect set of portable speakers.

This is pretty nifty! Someone just emailed to let me know that we were mentioned today in an article on MSNBC’s site. :o) In other news, I have put the Vibrant Media links back up (double underlined links). Supposedly they fixed the IE crashing problem. That remains to be seen though as Rob our web

Ok boys and girls, gather round because it’s time for another gear bag review! I am a total gear bag freak, so I never tire of trying new ones. The latest one to grace my shoulder is the Ducti High Voltage Messenger Bag. If you’ve not heard of Ducti, they are the same company that brought you the now famous duct tape wallets. The High Voltage Messenger Bag isn’t made of duct tape though, it’s a multi-pocketed canvas bag with an urban style.

The first time I saw pictures of the Nokia N80 back when it was
announced, I was thrilled. As soon as I saw the laundry list of
features, I knew I had to have it! I already had a Treo 650 with
Sprint, but the software was sometimes buggy and Sprint worked
poorly at my house. In the middle of July, I got a chance to leave
my Sprint contract without the termination fee, so I immediately
opened an account with T-Mobile and ordered a new N80 from
eBay.

I received an email from one of Sony’s PR people concerning their forthcoming Portable Reader System (PRS-500) eBook Reader device, which was first announced this past January at CES. According to this person, there has been quite a bit of confusion and misinformation floating around about this product. They would like to help dispel some

For those of you that might have purchased the Insignia IS-PDVD10 portable DVD based on my review last month, you may want to also check out the Init Portable DVD Travel case that works great with it. Rhinoskin sent me a Pink leather case for the 60gb Apple iPod video. It’s not really my style,

Gadgets… look in the dictionary and my picture is next to the

My search for a comfortable, easy to use, good sounding
Bluetooth headset to pair with my Treo 650, may have come to a
quick end. At least until something else comes along… After
reviewing 4 headsets in the last few months, I recently learned
about the Cardo Systems
scala-500 from one of my gadget buddies at my day job (Hello
Taire!). He highly recommended it, so I decided to test one out for
myself.

Try as I might, I have never been able to fall in love with the
little joystick that sits surrounded by the “G”, “H” and “B” keys
on my Fujitsu laptop. That’s why I have been interested in finding
a small mouse which I could pack and bring along when traveling.
Oh, I’ve dallied with a few over the years, but the first one to
really catch my eye was announced at this year’s CES – the Newton
Peripherals MoGo Mouse.

Apologies in advance – these pictures were taken late last night and my lighting wasn’t the best. I spent much of yesterday afternoon and evening playing with the cPC – getting comfortable with it, configuring various settings, adding programs to both XP and WM5, figuring out work-arounds for the portions of the system that still

Unpacking the DualCor cPC Engineering Sample… Nothing is going to jostle this baby! The treasure chest… I am sure that the final version box will be quite glossy – with photos of some self-satisfied user smiling as they hold their cPC. Hey this was unexpected!

I need some help from you guys… For the past 2-3 months, I’ve had a handful of email complaints from people saying that they sometimes have problems loading pages using Internet Explorer.

Have you ever noticed that a lot of FM transmitters on the
market these days, don’t blend in very well with the interior of
most vehicles. Their design tends to be too flashy or wacky for my
personal taste. I don’t know about you, but I tend to prefer that
my vehicle accessories look more like OEM parts than something that
came from the bargain bin of AutoZone. That’s why I was pretty
amazed when I came home the other day to find a package from
Speck Products. Inside
was the MobileTune FM Transmitter for the Apple iPod.
