There was a time, lo those many years ago, when I harbored the hope that I would be traveling regularly to Europe. I am very much a Francophile, and had hopes that Sami and I (and later, Maggie and Joseph) would spend time in France. And when considering such travels, I would wonder to myself, [...]

Oberon Design Large Smartphone Sleeve Review
It wasn’t so long ago that I reviewed the Oberon Design cellphone sleeve, and while that case was perfect for the iPhone and other similarly sized mobile devices, it isn’t quite big enough for all of the larger-screened mobile devices that are now so popular. I’ve got the new Nokia Lumia 920, which has a [...]
ZAGGsparq 6000 Portable Power Station Review
CES 2013 is coming up fast, which means we are already thinking about the gear that will help us best cover the show. This year I expect Judie’s and my iPad minis will play a big role. I’ll also be using my Canon T3i to grab better photos and video than I have previously. And [...]
Native Union’s POP Bluetooth Headset Review
Every once in a while there comes an invention whose imagery at one point in its evolution becomes universally iconic. The telephone, particularly the style of handset that started appearing in the US around the mid 1920s with the advent of the Western Electric B1 (also known as the Model 102), is one such item. [...]
Looking for Last-Minute Cyber Monday Deals?
If you’ve been following our news postings the last few days, you’ll know that we have plenty of Black Friday deals that we’re telling you about. We like to keep you informed of deals. A lot of these deals come with long press releases, though, which sometimes seems to me to be a bit of [...]
Keystone ECO is the First Universal Smartphone Case
Now one would think, what with the fact that smartphones can vary wildly in size from “man this is small!” to “you sure this isn’t officially a tablet?”, that it would be quite hard to create a universal case that covers all the bases. And I’m sure it was damn hard to create. But some [...]
PowerSkin® Expands Suite of NFC-Enabled Battery Cases
One of the drags of modern smartphones is the fact that battery technology simply hasn’t kept up with a lot of other tech breakthroughs. Consider memory, for example. Back in the day, a 100 Megabyte hard drive could be a couple inches tall and half a foot long; now you can pack dozen of Gigabytes [...]
ReturnGuru Puts Receipt Management at iOS and Windows Phone Users’ Fingertips
I don’t think they’re quite there yet, but I am very, very encouraged and pleased by the plethora of apps that have come out to help you shop. More, I’m very pleased by apps that provide you discounts, coupons, pointers to deals, and the like. Shopping is, for me, a major PITA, and anything that [...]
Use Protection with Heat Sensitive Rub & Reveal…Now for iPhone 5
All right, all right, have a chuckle. Get your sophomoric locker room humor out of your system. Take a deep breath. Better? Okay, for those able to stop channeling Beavis and Butthead, anokimobi has recently introduced their Heat Sensitive Rub and Reveal cases for the iPhone 5. The heat-sensitive cases are the first of their [...]
Liquid-Armor Invisible Nano-Coating Tech Screen Protector for Tablets and eReaders Review
all photos by Kevin Stanford Like many who ordered an iPhone 5 when they were first available, I didn’t have any kind of case, screen protector, or protective skin on hand when mine arrived. I did have a review sample of Dynaflo’s Liquid-Armor, however. Nano-coating tech? What’s that all about? I was ready to find [...]
Your Mobile Devices are a Germ Haven, So It’s ionSwipes to the Rescue!
One of the most useful sensory and interactive instruments in the human body are our hands and fingers. They help us easily manipulate our mobile devices, allowing us to communicate and plug into the virtual world around us. Ironically, hands and fingers are a double-edged sword, for in addition to allowing us to communicate [...]
Plantronics Voyager Legend Bluetooth Headset Review
My first Bluetooth headset sounded rather lousy, and it required a Bluetooth dongle be plugged into the phone itself since it did not have integrated BT. The headset also had a long boom that reached toward my mouth. It looked… dumb. When headsets began to appear that were tiny, dropped the boom and, as a [...]
Sena UltraSlim for HTC ONE X Review
As much as I love using various cases – they add color, style and, often, functionality, my iPhone spends the majority of its time relatively naked. Yes, I usually have a screen protector and some sort of back protection on it but, other than that, it’s just the iPhone. My reason? Simple, I love the [...]

Noreve Saint-Tropez Leather Case for Lumia 900 Review
What is it about fine leather that so many people just love? Is it the look? The smell of a well-made leather product? The tactile quality? All of the above? I don’t know, but I do know that Noreve Saint-Tropez satisfies all of the above as evidenced by the Nokia Lumia 900 case I received [...]
