When I bought my MacBook Pro back in December I was excited that it had built-in Bluetooth, something that I gave up with my previous notebook. It was great being able to sync my PDA/Phone and use a wireless mouse without cables or dongles. The Logitech MX900 has for several years been my favourite mouse [...]
The Jetart NP7600W Aluminum Notebook Cooler Review
One of the first things I noticed about my new FujitsuT4215 was that it gets pretty hot while running in laptop mode. See, there’s this vent on the left hand side, and it cranks out heat like there’s no tomorrow…and the bottom of the laptop get’s pretty warm, too. Which is why it seemed particularly [...]
iSkin ProTouch Keyboard Protector Review
With the increasing amount of time that people are spending on their computers these days, be it for work or pleasure, eating and drinking in front of the computer is commonplace. With this comes the risk of spilling that coffee or cup of Diet Coke (Judie ), or dropping crumbs of that cookie into your [...]

[Ed. note: this review picks up where the Unboxing left off. If you haven't already read it, read the i.Tech Virtual Keyboard Unboxing first.] This past month with the i.Tech Bluetooth Virtual Keyboard has been a bit of a roller coaster ride for me. During this time, I have managed to learn way more about [...]
The Spyker USB Light Review
[Ed. note: Larry originally wrote this review for the Palm Is Life forum, but he has also translated it for Gear Diary. To see this review in the original Chinese, click here.] If you are like me, used to bringing your laptop PC to your bed and typing all night long in a dark room, [...]
The Belkin CushTop Review
When I bought my latest laptop I envisioned spending more time sitting on the office couch, versus time spent sitting at my desk. In this lovely fantasy, I would no longer sit with my back half-turned to the room; instead I would have my feet propped on an ottoman, with WiFi streaming to the laptop [...]

The Brando 1GB USB Flash Card Review
Some days it seems as if I have seen just about every form a USB flash memory device could take, but every now and then a product will come along and make me think “hey, that was a great idea!” The Brando USB Flash Card is just such an item. Measuring 3.4″ long x 2.1″ [...]
The i.Tech Virtual Keyboard Unboxing
The i.Tech Bluetooth Virtual Keyboard has been on my list of must-try items ever since I first heard about it – which if I remember correctly was in 2003! The first time I saw pictures of a keyboard which worked by beaming a red�laser display on any flat surface, my inner geek did a happy [...]
The Purosol Plasma Molecular Screen Cleaner Review
Have you got a filthy television or computer screen lurking somewhere in the house? I do, or rather, I did. While my laptop’s screen is usually kept as spotless as possible – because I am obsessive like that – Sarah’s looks like it has been pulling weekend duty in a public library. Those that hate [...]
I See You Eating At Your Keyboard…

The Atech Flash PROGear-G5 28-in-1 Card Reader Review
One of the downsides of trying almost every type gadget known to man is that they all seem to take different memory cards. Why is that? (A rhetorical question if there ever was one, I don’t really expect an answer. ) As each new memory card format comes out, all I can do anymore is�be [...]
The Case Logic 6 Capacity USB Drive Shuttle Review
While I was at CompUSA one day… I came across the USB flash drive case made by Case Logic (model JDC6). Case Logic calls it the “Case Logic“. I thought what a neat idea. My USB flash drive collection is growing and carrying more than one is proving to be some what of a problem, [...]
The 256MB Ikura Sushi Memory Disk Review
It should be no surprise that because I live in the middle of dry and dusty West Texas, I don’t often get to partake in good sushi. One night while I was talking to G-A of Akihabara news, he was lamenting that there was no good meat in Japan. I assume he wasn’t talking about [...]
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 [...]
