Apple just announced that it has sold over 3 million units in just 80 days. That is… remarkable. (It is almost as remarkable as Apple getting over 600,000 pre-orders for the iPhone 4. And, no doubt, that number would be even higher if Apple hadn’t run out of the first run.) As Sir Stevo notes- [...]

Chrome Vega Utility Bag: Little Messenger Packs Big Punch
Chrome recently reached out to see if I’d be interested in reviewing some of their bags.

Review: White Leather iPad Case is Classic Apple
White is the quintessential Apple color. Both my iPhone 3G and 3Gs are white and I’ve owned a bunch of white iPods too. White accessories just make me think Apple so it was with a certain amount of nostalgia that I began to test the iPad Leather Flip Case – White from GearZap.com. Let’s face [...]

2010 Chrysler 300C SRT8
During my lifetime (thus far) I have witnessed Chrysler, Dodge and the late Plymouth (R.I.P.) deliver a wide range of vehicles, taking consumers and enthusiasts on a wild roller coaster ride. Ultimate highs courtesy the likes of Super Bee, Barracuda, HEMI (of course) and Viper and bottomless lows, a.k.a. K car, Jeep Compass and bankruptcy [...]
These Solar Power Toys Look Like Great Fun
I always loved science toys when I was a kid. For me, the best part of going to the Boy Scout Jamboree in 1985 was the trip to the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum. Back then, the closest I could get to a solar powered device was a soalr powered calculator or a radiometer. [...]

How Spike Brand’s Doggy Style Shampoo, Microfibre Towel and Jerky Treats Saved the Day
Kevin and I recently returned from San Francisco to find that Daisy Duke, our Great Dane puppy, had managed to pick up what seemed like thousands of tiny little ticks while being boarded at her breeders.

Toshiba’s New Dual-Touch & Dual Screen libretto W100 Concept PC May Help You Forget the Microsoft Courier
While in San Francisco, fellow attendees of the Netshelter Publisher’s Summit were treated to a reception hosted by Toshiba.
