I haven’t had any real complaints about the LandingZone until I saw the new Satechi Aluminum Mini Docking Station and started thinking that maybe there is a better way to organize my connections.

When you look at one of your electronic devices; your smart phone, tablet or computer screen, assuming your glasses are clean enough to judge, do you react with an “ewww, gross!”? I’m embarrassed to confess that I do. Judging by the smudge prints on everything I own you’d think I’m channeling my inner sticky-fingered three-year-old.

I’ve reviewed my share of Braven speakers and have liked—or really liked—them all. I will soon review the MONSTER (caps mine) Braven BRV-XXL. That’s going to be fun. However, it’s 20 lbs! Not exactly sized for lugging around even though it’s made for outdoor use. Enter the much smaller (and lighter) Braven BRV-1M. At first

I’m happy with Android and haven’t used an iPhone as my main phone for years. But dang it if these new leather and wood iPhone cases from tmbr. don’t make me seriously think about switching back.

One of the more frequently used tools in a police officer’s arsenal is a flashlight. I spent the first seven years of my career working in the dark and went through three or four flashlights in that time. While I’m no longer working at night, I still often find myself in need of my flashlight

I have been a fan of Withings fitness products for a very long time and have been using their Wifi Body Scale every day for the past six years. Their Activité activity-tracking wrist watches are some of the nicest looking fitness trackers on the market right now. But for those of us who are a

It’s no secret that I’m a fan of Audioengine. Their products—from the small A2+ to the larger A5+ speakers— are solidly built, affordable without being cheap, and sound terrific. What’s not to like?
