Just about a year ago I reviewed the G-Pen-M609X from Genius, and I used it with my netbook. Yes, back then I was using a netbook, but then again, that was “BiP” … Before iPad. My conclusion was quite positive. I wrote Overall I have been impressed with the G-Pen M609. Used as a pen-enabled [...]

iPhone 4 Accessory Review: Speck CandyShell Case
The newest member of the popular Speck CandyShell line is their new CandyShell iPhone 4 Case. No surprises there, right? But what might give you pause is the case’s combination of hot colors, good looks and protection on the iPhone 4′s sides and back. The interior of the case shows how the CandyShell is actually [...]
Gear Chat #17 Is Live…
On Gear Chat #17 Larry and Dan talk new iPods, iPad apps and more. Dan sent his iPod nano back and explains why… Larry finds that the iPod touch has the worst single feature of ANY Apple product and offers details. That and much more on the 17th episode of Gear Chat. Intro Music- Lean [...]
2011 Ford F-150: The Power of Four
The Ford F-Series pickup has led the sales chart for what seems like forever and is still the top-selling truck and top-selling vehicle in North America. So one might think the automaker is taking a huge gamble by totally revamping the powertrain lineup in a single strike. This is the first time any manufacturer has [...]
AMC Theaters Goes ‘Back to the Future’ With 25th Anniversary Release!
While I sort of lost track of the sequels, I definitely remember seeing the original Back to the Future in theaters back in 1985! I saw it with a bunch of friends who were, like me, home for the summer from college but busy working as much as possible to earn whatever we could for [...]
The New Hawaii 5-0 Features FaceTime Over 3G?
I just sat down to start watching the second episode of the all new Hawaii 5-0 which I’d DVRed from last night. During the opening scene one of the characters is shown carrying on a FaceTime conversation with his son. The curious thing is he’s doing so while in a moving vehicle. I’ve only been [...]
Kobo And Amazon Confirm eBooks Will Be Big On the PlayBook
iframe src=”http://player.vimeo.com/video/15337155″ width=”400″ height=”300″ frameborder=”0″> Kobo with BBM from Kobo on Vimeo. It’s looking more and more like eBooks are the “killer feature” for tablets.

iPad and iPhone App Update- Apiggo Announces ToDo 4 Task Manager
I’ve gone back and forth between task managers on the iPhone and iPad and keep coming back to using Appigo’s Todo. For me ToDo is the most full-featured task app that syncs with Toodledo. And because the company is continually updating the app it just keeps getting better and better. (Full disclosure, I also use [...]
Work Gear Review- The Ergotron WorkFit Sit-Stand Desk
I have a bad back, and when it goes out I have a very difficult time sitting for extended period. This can be more than a slight problem in light of the fact that, between my work as a rabbi and my work on the site, I do so much writing. At times I’ve ended [...]

Gear Games Hands-On: ArcaniA: Gothic 4 Demo Impressions
I have written about ArcaniA: Gothic 4 before here, here, here and here … and with each new notice I am feeling more and more positive. From the ashes of the awful Forsaken Gods expansion to Gothic 3 in the wake of its separation from Gothic developer Piranha Bytes, publisher Jowood and new developer Spellbound [...]
iPad and iPhone App Update- Dropbox-Powered Elements 1.1
I’m using DropBox more and more these days, thanks to a recommendation from Thomas a number of months ago. One of the key apps on my iPad that makes Dropbox even more powerful is Elements. The universal app lets you use Dropbox as a note-taking application on any iOS device; it is a great way [...]
Old Meets New as iPad Becomes Essential Tool for… Archeaology!
My background is in archaeology. Long before I became interested in theology or moved heavily into tech, I loved excavating. I worked on a dig on the Mediterranean Cost when I was 17 and spent two summers excavating the ruins of a major city in the Galilee. Yes, my favorite fictional character was and remains [...]
Book Review: The Man Who Lied To His Laptop
Talking with Clifford Nass is a real treat. He clearly loves what he does, and his passion for his work comes through in his stories and anecdotes. Not everyone gets to talk to Cliff Nass about his studies, but luckily he’s written a fabulous book, “The Man Who Lied To His Laptop”, that shares some [...]
iPhone 4 Cases: a Case of Case Confusion
I recently uploaded a new video on my YouTube channel, where I reviewed the newest case for the iPhone 4 from Case-Mate. The Hula case is a bumper style case that comes in a variety of colors and includes both front and back screen protection. At the end of the video I also added a [...]
