In many ways, 2 days at CES 2011 (International Consumer Electronics Show) is not enough time to really absorb the show.

Casio Pathfinder Wristwatch Helps You Traverse the Great Outdoors or Urban Jungle
I love Casio. Over the past 15 years, I have had G-Shocks, Waveceptors, Atomic G-Shocks and now a Solar Pathfinder. I guess I’m pretty familiar with the techy-er Casio watches. My previous watch, a Casio Atomic G-Shock pretty much never came off of my wrist. It really never needed to because it was solar power […]

Yep, another power solution! I guess that when you write and review gadgets, you also have to write about things that provide power and life to those devices.

Zap Those Nasty Germs from your Cell Phone with the Violight UV Cell Phone Sanitizer
If you are a germaphobe, you probably wipe down your cell phone many times a day with some sort of sanitizing wipe.

Make Your iPhone 4 Suck Power Longer with the Exolife Battery Case
My iPhone sucks! Well, it doesn’t actually suck in general, it sucks power like a sponge does water.

Giveaway & Review: Move All Your Remote Controls to the Logitech Harmony One!

DropCam is the Ultimate, Easy To Set Up, Security Webcam, Digital Baby Sitter & NannyCam
I have played around with a couple of IP-based Wireless Webcams (from Linksys and Panasonic), and while I’m pretty good usually at figuring out how to configure and work devices, IP webcam configurations are still a bit too complicated for the general public, in my opinion. For the most part, they are difficult to set […]
