Knee Defender
Here’s a handy gadget to have around if you’re constantly getting your knees smashed by the seat in front of you on an airline- the aptly named “Knee Defender” from Gadget Duck.
Car Tunes
Happy Monday gadgeteers! :o) I need some car stereo advice. I want to replace the stock head unit in my 2006 Mazda 3 and don’t know which way to turn. I don’t care about DVD or navigation features, but the top of my wish list includes iPod integration and XM radio capability. A USB port
HTC TyTN Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC Phone
Are you the type of person that wants a great PDA that happens to also have a good phone built into it? Or would you rather have a great phone that just happens to also function as a good PDA? That’s almost always the question you have to ask yourself when you’re in the market for a smartphone. It seems that no matter which brand of phone/PDA that you look at, you can’t find a device that is both an excellent PDA and an excellent phone. Trade offs, gotta luv em…

Apple iPod shuffle (2nd gen)
Step right up folks, it’s the incredible shrinking iPod! The new Apple iPod shuffle makes their first generation shuffle look absolutely huge in comparison. Their slogan of “Put some music on” is fitting as this new shuffle has a built-in clip that you can use to fasten to your shirt, coat, gear bag, jeans, etc. Is this the end all be all mini DAP (digital audio player)? Let me tell you more about it and we can decide.

3M Notebook Privacy Filter
I eagerly waited for the package to arrive on a Wednesday afternoon. There it was in the mailbox, a plain brown envelope with a great product inside. The treasure was a 3M privacy filter for my notebook computer. I was even more excited when I found out that it was for a widescreen monitor.

I Smell Leather
My Treo 750v received a package today. :o) Vaja sent a Red and Black iVolution leather case to match the Red and Black leather messenger bag that I reviewed not long ago. They also included a Rivet system clip to attach to the bag. Check out the pics… The case is very similar to the
USB Missile Launcher and USB Circus Cannon
A short time ago my wife Meredyth, a more sedate guest contributor, showed me these two devices from Brando USB, and asked me if I’d like to do a review on them. As a serious fan of non-serious office toys, I was delighted. “What do I have to do?” I asked. “Play with them a lot, then do some writing,” she replied. Never being one to turn down a chance to do something extremely silly, I accepted the offer, brought them into my lab, and got down to the important business of having fun.

Remember when I reviewed Mvix’s MV-5000U a few months ago? My main gripe was the lack of WiFi. They must have listened! This new unit even supports resolution of 1920 x 1080i. SHARE ON TwitterFacebookPin It

Tokyoflash Saishin Retsu LED Watch
What criteria do you use when buying a wrist watch? Form over function, or function over form?

Oakley O ROKR Sunglasses
Wifi and Bluetooth-capable devices and peripherals are everywhere nowadays, and “going wireless”, or having a “wireless lifestyle” seems to be on a lot of our minds. It is not uncommon to see people on the commute, or people in their cars going hands-free throughout the day wearing their Bluetooth headsets being tethered invisibly/almost magically to their cellphones. Whatever your reason for needing Bluetooth in your daily life, Oakley brings you a full dose of it in their $249 O ROKR sunglasses.

Treo 680
I just found a Cingular branded Treo 680 on my front porch (It’s 11pm here). I had been expecting one to be delivered all day, but the FedEx person never arrived. Or so I thought… Evidently they did at one point during the afternoon / evening and didn’t bother to ring the doorbell. Grrrr. Anyway,
Nuwai Luxeon III TM-303X LED Flashlight
A good flashlight for the ordinary person is like most tools, only appreciated when needed. If you’re anything like me, you probably don’t use a flashlight every day. Or even once a week. But when the need arrises, you’re always happy to have a reliable one at hand. I’m happy to tell you about the TM-303X; a small robust little light from Nuwai, which is available in Black and Titanium finishes.
