If you’re giving or getting a new iPad mini with Retina display for the holidays, you’re probably thinking about cases for it, too. Consider the StyleFolio from Speck for a full-body protective case.

I’m a recent “convert” from iOS to Android. After owning first-and second-generation iPads, along with the iPhone 3GS and 4S, I decided to move over to Android, since those devices had more interesting features and naturally integrated with all the Google apps that I used. With more features coming out in Android OS updates, I’ve

It’s the holidays once again, and if you are like me, you are searching for the perfect gift for that one tech savvy person in your life – that one person who finds a tech product they like and use it until its demise. If you have one of those in your life and they
I think the Smart Covers Apple sells simply do not do their iPads justice. To create such a great tech-sexy piece of hardware only to cover/protect its screen with plastic is just tragic… and to charge $40 for it to boot. Well, as the story goes, I was dancing the Net looking for a worthy

Jeff Morin has other successful

But as an adult, you’re probably in need of something a little bigger, maybe more expandable, and definitely more impressive. And how about… tactical? The MOLLE Elite Tactical

Several months ago, a friend of mine gave me a challenge. It was to write a page a day, any format I wanted, as long as I was writing roughly 700 words daily. While by no means did I ever consistently meet that goal, it did kickstart the writing bug in me again. I primarily
