I reviewed Toast’s wood back for the iPad mini back in March. (Read the review.) It went on easily and looked good. Unfortunately a key shortcoming led me to remove it shortly after posting the review. My summary comments on the iPad mini cover say it all… What I Like: Three different wood options; Option [...]

IK Multimedia iKlip Studio for iPad Mini Review
Just about a year ago, I reviewed the original iKlip Studio. It was a simple and short review, and for good reason – the iKlip was simplistic and direct in design, solid in build and materials, and well executed. Back at CES 2013, IK Multimedia announced they were building an iKlip for the iPad Mini. [...]
Apple Lightning Connector 8-pin with 3.5mm Aux to 30-pin Dock Converter for Audio
So I don’t know about you, but when I first got some experience with Apple’s new 8-pin Lightning connector, I had pretty mixed feelings about it. On the one hand, I was definitely glad to have a connector that was orientation-insensitive–that is to say, you couldn’t put it in “upside down”. (Seems like 95% of the [...]
Monster Diamond Tears Headphones Giveaway
Doesn’t mom deserve diamonds this Mother’s Day? Sure she does! And if mom loves diamonds AND music, then doesn’t she deserve the ultimate Gear Diary Mother’s Day Giveaway? Yes! She! Does! We’ve got a pair of Monster Diamond Tears Headphones in hand that we are in the process of reviewing. With Mother’s Day on the way, [...]
MirrorCase Acts As an iPad Case, a Stand, and It Will Point Your Camera in the Right Direction
I have an iPad 1, and it does not have a camera. I have never really minded this, because it always seemed weird to me to want to heft up this 9″ tablet and try to take a picture with it. Heck, as a long-time shutterbug, I think it’s weird to use a phone to [...]
Cloth-Clip Quick-On Wide(+Macro) + Fisheye Lens for for iPhone and Tablets
USBFever puts out a lot of stuff. I know that you’ve probably noticed that I show a tendency to gravitate towards some of the camera-oriented ones, due to my history as a serious shutterbug (back when shutters, ya know, actually existed). But in this case, I’m wanting to show you this item because it’s, well, [...]
Findables Cases for iPhone 5 and iPad mini Review
The more I review tech accessories, the more I find that I’m less inclined to use gadgets that rely on app-gimmicks than ever before. What I mean by that is, if there is something that lends itself to having a specialized application great. But if the inclusion of an app is a little more than [...]
3 to 5 Hours of Streamed Music from the MiPow Boom mini? Not Even Close!
We brought an exclusive first look at the MiPow Boom mini (read the post), and then we shared the first ever review of the diminutive new speaker coming from MiPow. As you might recall, Judie and I met with MiPow in January when they were showing off their newest offerings at CES 2013. We were [...]
Just Mobile AluCup iPhone Accessory Review
Just Mobile has made some of our favorite iPhone and Mac accessory. We met with the company at CES 2013, and they showed us a few of their upcoming products. One of them, the AluCup, struck me as one of their less compelling products. Still, there was something about it that intrigued me, and I [...]
RokForm RokShield v3 Case Kit for iPad Mini
Some weeks ago we took a first look at the RokForm RokShield v3 Case Kit for iPad Mini. I was impressed with the RokForm RokShield V3 for iPad mini and excited by the various possibilities it offered thanks to the kickstand, good protection and the option to add on additional accessories. After all, the case [...]
USBFever Offers a Helping Hand with the Photography Tripod Set and Holder for Tablets
Despite Nature’s design, there are so many times where I wish I had an extra pair of hands when trying to complete a task. Maybe you often wish for the same, especially when using your tablet. Ever struggle to find just the right place to set up your tablet at a moments notice and get [...]
Kensington KeyCover Hard Shell iPad Keyboard Review – the Keyboard that Changed It All
Walk into a classroom, and you’ll see how much has changed in the last ten years. Classrooms are outfitted with SmartBoards (interactive projectors that connect to your computer), basic projectors, laptop carts, and now, individual tablets for each student. I work in a high school that values technology, and one of our initiatives for the [...]
Divoom OnBeat X1 Portable Bluetooth Speaker Review
To be honest, most of my gaming — whether PC, Mac, DS, PSP, iOS or Android — is done either with headphones or with the device muted. There are a couple of reasons for this: first to allow for ‘gaming anywhere’; the second because ever since playing games such as Thief in the late 90s, [...]
LapDawg’s o-Stand Review – Expensive, Impractical, and Awkward
I have been looking for a convenient way to read from my iPad while freeing up the use of my hands. I’ve tried makeshift holders made from pillows and magazines, and I’ve tried maneuvering my case to double as a mini stand, but nothing has really worked. The o-Stand by LapDawg seemed like the [...]
Mkeeper Shoulder Bag Gento for iPad 4 / Mini / Tablet
When I got myself an iPad, I quickly acquired a Tom Bihn Ristretto should bag in which to carry it. I love my Tom Bihn bag; it’s got a nice padded place for my pad, lots of pockets, a well-designed strap, and plenty of other accouterments. But as much as I like it, it has [...]
