Recently, I moved back to having a MacBookPro again. I had moved to an iMac, since most of my mobile stuff was being done on the iPad. Then work got me a second iMac for a lab/testing machine, and my desk got too crowded. But, of course, that means I now “have” to have a

I travel a great deal for work and pleasure (aka when my wife drags me on vacation). Much of that time away from home spans more that just a few days and is usually pretty hectic.

Better still, the TSA or security checkpoint friendly backpacks make getting through security with your laptop and other devices quick and painless (relatively speaking).

Have you ever stood at the baggage conveyor after a flight and wondered which black rolling bag was yours? I sure have.

The GoPro is a popular action camera, but I’ve found it’s got so many accessories, it sometimes needs a little help keeping things organized. I think I have parts scattered in at least three boxes, which is pretty inconvenient. GOcase has a solution for that.

Those that have read my previous bag posts will realize that my main love of bags centres around messenger style bags. That was until I started bike riding. While a messenger is fine for short-haul commutes, for me they’re not stable or ergonomic enough for much longer rides. As my fitness increases I find myself

At 9″ wide, 8″ high folded (maximum of 3″ thick), the Gadget Pouch is too small to hold a full-sized iPad, but I wonder if you could fit a
