Countact Lens Case – because a year is too long to leave your lenses in
Different types of contact lenses are suitable for varying lengths of in-eye wear. The ones that I use are supposed to be taken out each month and a new pair inserted. The problem is that counting down how long I’ve worn my contacts is not the top item on the daily priority list. Instead here’s [...]
SCOTTEVEST Signature System Review
Last night, my friend Joel emailed to say that he thought I would be a perfect candidate for an upcoming geek/techie makeover edition of the Maury Show; I didn’t know whether to laugh or be insulted, since he mentioned that I might get a new wardrobe out of the experience. I don’t think that I [...]

Blackberry Bold 9000 Review
Not too long ago I bought the Nokia E71, since it was pretty much everything I wanted in a smartphone. Excellent keyboard, excellent signal, excellent battery life, and a stable platform. Since I bought it I’ve been very happy with it, and I didn’t think anything would be able to topple it for me. Until [...]
Perfect solution to cold offices – USB heated keyboard gloves
My day job as a consultant takes me all over visiting different offices. While most people work in relatively comfortable cubicles with normal heat, there are a fair number of offices I visit which are located in freezing cold warehouses or open workspaces. These USB heated gloves are perfect for keeping staff productive even when [...]

Kids bugging you for an iPod? If so, chances are they don’t want any cheap looking model you might get on closeout. Nope. Not your kids. They must keep up with Johnny and Susie Jones from school who have their very own expensive iPod Nano 4G. Out of your price league ? Well, now you [...]
Review – Tom Bihn Checkpoint Flyer
