Misemet r.pod multifunction electronic pod and solar charger review

schettino rpod review 11

The Misemet r.pod multifunction electronic pod and solar charger is not only a mouthful to say, it’s also a multifunction workhorse for off-the-grid power and light. Available in red, yellow, or green colors, it consists of the r.pod itself, which looks for all the world like a gigantic cold capsule, a handful of accessories, and […]

Tom Bihn Ristretto Bag for iPad (new version) review

tom bihn ristretto ipad 2012 01

Back in 2010, I reviewed my first Tom Bihn Ristretto for iPad bag.  It was fantastic.  I liked it because you could carry your tablet computing device and a handful of other things, without a bulky bag.  I expected the Ristretto for iPad to last a long time.  I certainly didn’t expect what happened next.  We’ll

Oberon Design Medium Tablet Sleeve review

oberondesign ipadminisleeve 1

I typically carry my gear around with me in the Colonel Littleton No. 1943 Navigator bag I reviewed last year. But there are those occasions where I want my iPad mini with me either totally by itself or in something like my gi/sports bag. In both situations, I do not want my tablet rattling around

NuForce Cube Speaker review

NuForce Cube Speaker 1

With the growing popularity of wireless speakers – both Bluetooth and AirPlay – many speaker companies have begun to release products that are redefining how we listen to music. Suddenly, there are very small speakers that can produce quality audio with decent bass. Until recently, this was almost unheard of. Jambox, Soundmatters, Braven, Scosche, Jabra,

Coghlan’s 4″ X 6″ Dry Pouch for iPhone review

coghlans dry pouch iphone 1

I recently posted about using Ziploc Big Bags to keep my daughter’s laptop dry in her backpack.  One reader asked if static discharges from the bag could be a problem – something I hadn’t thought about.  About the same time I posted that item, Coghlan’s, a maker of outdoor gear, contacted The Gadgeteer to ask

Black and Decker 4v MAX Gyro Screwdriver review

black and decker gyro 01 e1349751086190

We all love power tools, but let’s be realistic:  Unless your tools are part of your job or you’re a serious handyperson, most power tools are overkill.  Yes, I’ve been guilty of using a $400 cordless uber-drill to tighten a cabinet hinge.  But what’s this odd-ball, palm-sized thing?  A Gyro?  Isn’t that meat eaten inside

LapDawg O-Stand Review

lapdawg o stand schettino review 12

The LapDawg O-Stand is a strikingly versatile and equally odd-looking stand for a wide range of tablet/reader devices. It arrives in a somewhat imposing box, which hints at the scale of stand you’re about to encounter. Even so, you may not be prepared for the coiled mass that awaits inside. However, if you’ve struggled to
