It never fails – I’ll either get caught on a flight with no power�outlet under my seat, or I’ll be stuck somewhere with no power outlet and a device with a dwindling battery. Because of this I am always on the lookout for products that will help manage or extend my battery life, which is [...]
U R A Q T: The HTC Star Trek / Qtek 8500 PINK Unboxing
UPS dropped off�a little jewel this morning, the HTC Star Trek branded as a Qtek 8500. This is HTC’s first clamshell Smartphone, and it runs Windows Mobile 5 Smartphone. �� Immediately evident is the fact that this is not the�business-like black version – oh no, instead�this is�the hot pink�version. So let’s unbox her and take [...]
Am I Right Or Am I Right?
This morning I had an email from Joe with a link and the caption, “Am I right or am I right?” Here was the link. And here is the title of his post: “Tongue-in-cheek PDA Â Quite possibly the only one on the planet Judie hasn’t tried” Ahhh…but I have! And it is one of the [...]
MOO MiniCards and Flickr
Chehui from Palm Is Life recently posted about receiving his box of Flickr MiniCards from MOO. I love his picture of a kitty chewing string! To order, you basically just go through your Flickr account and pick out the images you want to use. You can use the same one, do multiples of a few, [...]
The Jetart NC3300 Cool Stand Review
Right before I started this site, I bought a Toshiba Satellite A-105 laptop on a whim. It was one of those times where I was standing in a store, and the right item with the right specs and the right price was staring at me from its shelf; I couldn’t exactly leave without it. I’m [...]
The MyLight Marklight Review
For as long as I can remember, I have been an avid reader. Even with repeated warnings from my mother to “use a better light or you’ll be sorry; you’re ruining your eyes”, I was never very particular about the light in the room; as long as I could make out the letters on a [...]
The Motorola Q Windows Mobile 5 Smartphone Review
Not long ago I was asked to review a few Motorola Q cases for Vaja; the only problem was that I didn’t actually have a Motorola Q! It was no problem to put in a request for a review unit and one was sent very quickly, but there was one potentially major caveat – the [...]
Canon EOS 400D Unboxing
Jenneth has been keeping me entertained with her new camera escapades. She recently ordered a Canon EOS 400D, and even though it arrived four full days ago – she only unboxed it tonight. I can’t even imagine having that type of restraint…when I get a new gadget it is opened and charging ASAP! For those [...]
The Ultimate Ears super.fi 5 Pro Earphones Review
**While at Mobius, Jenneth and I were both presented with a set of Ultimate Ears super.fi 5 Pro Earphones. It seemed redundant to write separate reviews about the same product, so we decided to combine forces and write a dually to post on both our sites – we’re trying something new! For reference: My remarks [...]
An Interview With Nandini of Instablogs Network
Nandini Maheshwari is the managing Editor and Publisher of a truly entertaining blog, BornRich. Launched on October 5th, 2005, it has quickly become a place where visitors can come and be amazed at what more than a few dollars will buy. Whether it be the Multi-Media Bed with RUF Cinema, the Chrome Robot TV Stand, [...]
The Datexx Sentina Outback Rechargeable PowerBank Review
I’m always looking for alternative sources of power for my electronic devices, which is why the Datexx Sentina Outback Rechargeable PowerBank caught my eye. Billed as a super bright LED flashlight, a motion detector / emergency light, a USB charger for electronic gadgets, a power generator, and an SOS siren, the Outback almost sounds like [...]
A Message From DualCor…
To say that there has been a lot of speculation and misinformation circling the DualCor cPC would be an understatement. To cut through the rumors, I went straight to the source and spoke with Rob Howe, President and COO of DualCor, on October 23, 2006. After our phone conversation, I emailed him the notes I had [...]
The Gomadic Double Chargers With Tip Exchange Technology Review
Over the last year I have grown incredibly spoiled when I travel because I no longer need to pack a tangle of “spaghetti”; instead, I bring along a set of Gomadic Charging Cables. The same single cable charges my PDA, mobile phone and digital music player. It can charge Sarah’s phone and Sarah’s digital music [...]
Larry’s Hermes Will Never Be So BLUE!
Larry at Palm Is Life is my hero! Evidently I wasn’t the only one that wasn’t thrilled with the blue backlights in the Hermes keyboard. But instead of just mentioning it in a review, Larry did something about it! Once again he has cracked his Hermes’ hood and tinkered until things were exactly as he [...]
