The day I got my new MacBook I immediately put a Speck SeeThru hard shell on it. At $49.95 it was expensive, but having now used it for a number of months, it was worth every penny. The case is clear, doesn’t add much thickness or weight and offers amazing protection for my MacBook. It [...]
iBend – Not everything in life has to be fancy
We’ve seen some do it yourself iPhone and iPod Touch stands made from popsicle sticks and others made from paper clips. Some stands sells for $50 or more.

Review – OtterBox Armor Case for 4th Generation iPod Nano
I briefly had a new iPod Shuffle when it was released last month. I loved the size and the voiceover feature, but ended up returning it. Why? The inability to use any headset other than the stock Apple buds didn’t work for me. I have, and use, a number of relatively high end headsets with [...]
Review – Dual Dock Charging Station from RichardSolo.com

iPhone Case Conundrum!

Review: Altec Lansing Backbeat Plus Mobile UHS206
After reviewing the Backbeat 106 headphones, the folks at Altec Lansing sent out a version of the headphones designed for mobile phones. The Backbeat Plus Mobile UHS206 are virtually identical to the Backbeat 106 ear buds in my earlier review. The design is a little different, and the cables are wrapped in the same tangle [...]
