LiveScribe Pulse Smartpen Review

Kids sure are lucky these days because they have laptops and PDAs to help them with their school work. Back in my day,
all we had were pencils, that we had to sharpen with a pocket knife as we walked to school barefoot in the
snow. Ok, maybe it wasn’t that bad… But really, all we had were pens and pencils to take notes
during class. I used to hate taking
notes in school because my mind had a really bad habit of wandering. Fast forward to present day
and not much has changed. My mind still wanders and I still don’t like taking notes. But, now I have a new tool that can help fill in the
gaps during those times when I’m supposed to be paying attention during meetings. It’s an electronic pen called the Pulse Smartpen from Livescribe.

Grindmaster OPOD Single Serve Hot Beverage Dispenser Review

I did not start drinking coffee until I was in the service and was 19 years old. After a 6-year stint, I’m able to drink anything resembling coffee and probably have drunk things I shouldn’t have. If it is burned at the bottom of steel pot and you add water and re-heat, is it still coffee?

Hobbyist Software Power Hero – Palm OS Utility Review

Hobbyist Software offers a great line of software for the Palm
Treo and
Centro user, and some of it can even be used for other Palms. When I asked for some codes so I could trial their products for a long enough time to figure them out, they were very helpful. They started me with Initiate Pro and Power Hero. I am still learning about Initiate Pro, so let’s look at Power Hero.

Brando USB Super 16-Port Hub Review

Yesterday I reviewed the ShareCentral
1 USB sharing device from Kensington. I liked the simplicity of their product, but couldn’t help wanting more
from it. Today I want to show you the USB Super 16-Port Hub from Brando.
Yes, I said 16 ports! Yowza! I know this isn’t quite the same thing as the ShareCentral, but it’s close…

Brando IP Security Camera Review

I’m a big fan of webcams. Once I figured out how to broadcast a webcam stream on a webpage,
I started broadcasting from work so that my mom and friends could see me. One idea I had related to this was setting up a little home
surveillance system with my two Logitech QuickCams and my eeePC 701’s integrated webcam. I’m mostly just curious to see what my cats do
all day while I’m at work. While setting up such a stream is pretty easy, it requires running a computer 24/7 and can be a little power and
bandwidth hungry.
