Well, I'm sure you are now quite familiar with the Angry Bird franchise, which is something like the biggest mobile game...ever! And then there is Star Wars, which is probably the biggest movie franchise...ever. I suppose that someone could not resist combining the two in order to create some new cash cow. As soon as I heard that it was available, I downloaded it on my … [Read more...] about Angry Birds Star Wars now available for mobile devices

Thanks to MimoMicro, my memories are safe
We have reported on Mimoco before, and if you haven't heard of them, they are most famous for making USB thumb drives that are decorated very well. Yes, they are very geeky, and I recommended that every person have one. Then again, we live in a very digital age and it is necessary to back up a lot of things. If you are not using some sort of cloud computer service to do … [Read more...] about Thanks to MimoMicro, my memories are safe
The Neo 3 HoverCam Document Camera
I have to admit that I was very pleased to try out the Neo 3 Hovercam Document Camera, as it isn't like the scanner that you might have on your computer. The Neo 3 is what you are seeing in the illustration, and it has an interesting way of bending at an angle so you can take a picture of a document that is very similar to scanning one on a scanner. I had a chance to try … [Read more...] about The Neo 3 HoverCam Document Camera
The Duracell Powermat: It really needs to be a standard, seriously
In all honesty, I have tried out the Powermat before. In fact, my second contest was all about the Powermat. Of course, that was three years ago. Back then, the Powermat was black and it could charge three devices simultaneously. Now, it is white and it can do about two devices. Please do not interpret this as a step down for the product. If you are not familiar … [Read more...] about The Duracell Powermat: It really needs to be a standard, seriously

Finder Codes really improve Lost and Found with QR Codes
I had a chance to try out a new system of Lost and Found recovery known as Finder Codes. Their slogan is "What have you got to lose", and they are essentially ready-made QR Codes that you can put on your stuff should the worst happen. I tried out the Home Lost and Found Kit, and the set had about four stickers and two hard tags with QR codes on them. By going to the … [Read more...] about Finder Codes really improve Lost and Found with QR Codes
The Tiki from Blue Microphones
While I was testing out the Mikey Digital from Blue Microphones, a microphone for iDevices, I had a chance to check out the Tiki, a microphone that conveniently plugs into a computer's USB port. The Tiki is about three inches long, and it is designed to minimize background noise. In fact, it is smart enough to shine a different-colored light when there is sound or no … [Read more...] about The Tiki from Blue Microphones
Forget the U.S. Presidential Election, watch this cool video of a robotic hand
Well, if you haven't heard now, Obama has four more years. Some of you may be pleased, some of you may be outraged, and others of you might not care. However you feel, you might forget after you watch the awesome video above. What you are seeing is currently "the world's most advanced prosthetic limb". This is the Bebionic3, and I am just going out on a limb (terrible … [Read more...] about Forget the U.S. Presidential Election, watch this cool video of a robotic hand
Nyko’s Charge Base 3, Raven, and Vertical Stand for the PS3
While I was looking at Nyko products for the Xbox 360, such as the Charge Base 360 S, I had a chance to check out a few products for the PS3. I might as well start with the Charge Base 3 for the PS3. It works as easily as the Charge Base 360. It comes with two USB clips that have a mini-USB plug on them, and the other side is a magnet. With the clips on the SIXAXIS and … [Read more...] about Nyko’s Charge Base 3, Raven, and Vertical Stand for the PS3
Audiofly AF45 Premium In-Ear Headphones
I have had some experience with AudioFly before, and I had a chance to try out the AF33M earbuds some time around CES last year. I felt good about AudioFly since I first saw them (or should I say heard them), and I had a chance to try AF45. Normally, I use some pair of low-priced earbuds when I listen to things on my computer. The moment I plugged in the AF45, I could … [Read more...] about Audiofly AF45 Premium In-Ear Headphones
Kanex mySpot is your own Pocket-Size Access Point for Travellers
I'm going to be traveling to CES in three months, and I would imagine that I would want a mySpot to take with me. I had a chance to try out the Travel-Size Access Point from Kanex, the makers of the Sydnee. The mySpot is a pocket-sized access point that you plug into an Ethernet port, and then stick the other end into a USB port. From there, you can enter a default IP … [Read more...] about Kanex mySpot is your own Pocket-Size Access Point for Travellers

When it comes to keeping the phone in the car, there are many ways. We talked about the MobiValet yesterday, and I would like to talk about a few products from PanaVise.

This product has a suction cup that can mount to a windshield or dashboard, and can rotate an iPod, iPhone, BlackBerry, GPS, or … [Read more...] about New products for mounting phones in your car, from Panavise
The Charge Base 360 S from Nyko
I had the distinct pleasure of reviewing many gaming accessories from the Nyko company, and it is only recently that I have been able to review products that I saw at CES 2012. I will be talking about more Nyko products in the next week, but for now I will discuss this one for the Xbox 360. The Charge Base S isn't necessarily a new product, but it certainly is downright … [Read more...] about The Charge Base 360 S from Nyko
Kinyo PW-8899 Over the Ear Wireless Headset
I have reviewed Kinyo products before, most recently the Kinyo ArtDio AW-630 Powered Subwoofer. They have some good tech products, but I will have to say that the Kinyo PW-8899 is a Wireless Headset are some low-priced wireless headphones. Yes, they are a very low price, and the headphones are pretty low weight. What you are seeing here in the image is a pair of wireless … [Read more...] about Kinyo PW-8899 Over the Ear Wireless Headset
MobiValet gives your cell phone a place to belong in your car
Let me ask you a quick question: when you are driving, where does your phone go? You don't want to be using it, because that is illegal in most states. I am guessing that most people put their phone on the seat next to them or in a cupholder. Of course, that cupholder isn't made for your phone, is it? This is why I appreciate MobiValet's slogan: "your cupholder can have … [Read more...] about MobiValet gives your cell phone a place to belong in your car
