Review: Belkin Conserve Valet

Gear Review: CarCheckup OBD II Scan Tool and Data Logger; a Worthy Addition to Any Toolbox
Everyone has that one friend or family member that seems to be the guy you go to when having car troubles.

I do not know about you, but I have collected quite the array of USB devices. From iPhones and iPads to battery chargers, it seems that my life is constantly filled with charging via a USB cable. For a while I did have a wall adapter with a USB port that I could use to [...]
Review: Arctic K381 Slim Keyboard For Windows

Review: Hello Kitty Mimobot USB Flash Drives
I don’t normally go for USB flash drives that are shaped as pretty much anything. I am just as happy with a Sandisk as I am with a Lexar or even a no-name brand flash drive. Unless you have specific needs, they all pretty much work the same and the looks have been secondary to [...]

Hello Kitty has to be on almost everything. I am quite sure that this isn’t the first Hello Kitty thumb drive, but it’s not every year that Hello Kitty celebrates 50 years of cuteness. My favorite is the penguin, Badtz Maru. While he doesn’t look like Tux, he’s still cute! Ranging in sizes from 2 GB [...]
Review: USB Fever Compact Keyboard
If you spend time on the go, you’ve gotten used to laptop size keyboards and small trackpads. Personally, I’ve actually found that having the trackpad nearby as I’m typing to be more convenient than using a separate keyboard and mouse.
