About a month ago the iPhone 4s unlocks started to appear. This is an excellent thing if you want to use your locked iPhone 4s (especially AT&T users!) outside of your normal carrier. Since AT&T fees overseas are astronomical and don’t even work in all countries (even when the GSM radios support connection) this is one [...]

SBCGlobal Users, Are You Having Trouble Sending Your Mail? Here’s Help!
Image courtesy of OrganicKuwait blog Hi there, SBCGlobal users! I’d like to speak to those of you who work on Macs or Macbook Pros; I’ve been off Windows for a while (wow; I make it sound like heroin, don’t I), so I don’t know if what happened to me today is true on Windows boxes [...]
Great Music Videos from Before MTV
Image courtesy of ICanHasCheezburger Many folks think that the birth of the music video can be traced to the launch of MTV … but that really doesn’t make sense when you think about it. I mean, even knowing that MTV started as a small local station before transitioning to a major cable network … how [...]
Youda Survivor Kindle Fire Game Review
Youda Survivor joins games like Civilization Revolution, Jack of All Tribes and Tiny Token Empires and other casual strategy games that have journeyed to handheld tablets. These games all work well with the touchscreen interface, present more than a trivial experience, and are still playable in small time increments. All of those games are available [...]
StarTech’s New USB 3.0 HDD Docking Station
If you build computers or do any maintenance on computers or just want a quick way to offload the data off of an old hard drive, then StarTech.com has a new solution for you. Their new HDD docking station supports 2.5 inch or 3.5 inch SATA or IDE hard disks and connects to your computer [...]
Why Do We Lose Power So Easily?
Ever lose power when the sky is blue? That happened to me this week at both my place of work and my home. While at home the answer was not clear, at work it was totally apparent. There is a pole in front of our building that has not once, not twice but at least [...]
Nokia Lumia 900 Now Available for Pre-Order from AT&T
For those chomping at the bit for the Nokia Lumia 900, AT&T is now offering the phone up for pre-order on their website. Retailing off-contract for $449.99 or $99.00 with contract, this has been a heavily anticipated phone in Windows Phone circles. For me, this device will mark my departure from the Android realm for [...]
Missing some Zzzs? Try zsnuz Nap App for iPad/iPhone
It’s a curious thing, perception of Time as a child as compared to that of an adult’s. As children, Time was a thing without meaning as we played and played, until our parents found us and compelled us to take a nap. Suddenly Time became a precious commodity, now subjugated by cruel Afternoon Nap rudely [...]
Just Mobile Highway Car Adapter for iPad and iPhone review
How much can you actually say about an in-car charger? I mean, seriously, so long as it plugs into your power adapter and can charge your device you are good to go right? Maybe, but as with so many things, when the tool you are using for a task is well-conceived and beautifully executed [...]
Amazon Kindle Newsstand Versus Zinio on iPad
I took the plunge recently and bought a new iPad! One of the first things I looked into was Zinio, based on the exuberant reviews of the other Gear Diary editors. Then I realized I hardly read magazines. So while I peeked at a few prices and poked around, I didn’t really give digital magazines [...]
New iPad Sleeves and Wallets from AUTUM Available for Pre-Order Now!
You may recall AUTUM for their cool bike and their even cooler (and freakier) coffin-turned-sofa. Well, AUTUM is back with some cool designs and we have an early look. They have a brand new iPad sleeve design called the Tourniquet iPad Sleeve. It is simple and, no surprise here, the leather is gorgeous. As they [...]
Brookstone Pocket Projector for iPhone 4 Devices Review
The other day I wrote about one of the Brookstone iOS accessories Elana gave me for my birthday, the iConvert iPad scanner. Today we are going to look at an accessory that lets the iPhone or iPod touch become a home theater. The Brookstone Pocket Projector for iPhone 4 devices is pretty impressive. In fact, when [...]
AmazingRibs Meat Temperature Guide Might Just Save Your Bacon Review
There are lots of ways to determine the doneness of meat that you are grilling or roasting in your oven. (Notice I didn’t say “BBQing.” Where I come from BBQ is a noun, not a verb.) In addition to meat thermometers and a nifty little iPhone app that I’ve reviewed lately, sometimes it’s best to [...]
Amazing CSound Music Programming Language Headed to iPad!
If you were to ask someone under 50 years old doing deep-level sound development, they would likely point to CSound as one of the most influential and important pieces of music software ever created. It is an incredibly versatile and modular sound development tool … and it is coming to the iPad! Here are some [...]
Reflection for Mac Puts Your iOS Device on the Big Screen
It is rare for an application to make me go “Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow!” but the Mac app Reflections just had me do exactly that. Seriously, this small utility is one of the best things to come along in quite some time. Be aware that it is only useful if you use a Mac and [...]
