I have reviewed a lot of Bluetooth headsets on this site before, and I thought that the Nighthawk from Blue-Wi was just another one. I first encountered it at CES, then again at CTIA, and I have finally received the Nighthawk to try out on my own. Let me start by telling you that the Nighthawk is one of the best Bluetooth devices that I have ever heard. You know how a lot … [Read more...] about Blue-Wi Nighthawk Bluetooth Lapel Microphone

Our Review of Braven 570
Okay, it is time to talk about truth in advertising. Braven is one company that I have talked about before, like with the 855s, and I had a chance to review the 570, also known as "The Life of the Party". I will have to testify that this is true. From the moment I turned on the 570, it made an incredible bass sound, and I am pleased to say that it stays quite loud an very … [Read more...] about Our Review of Braven 570
Olloclip Telephoto plus Circular Polarizing Lens for the iPhone
I have reviewed products from Olloclip before, such as the lens for the iPhone 5 and the Quick-Flip Case. This particular Telephoto and Circular Polarizing Lens (CPL) is a definite step up for the company. The Telephoto and CPL lens has 2x optical magnification, and it works pretty well for that. As an added bonus, the user can easily remove the lens, flip it around, and … [Read more...] about Olloclip Telephoto plus Circular Polarizing Lens for the iPhone
myKeyO 6-in-1 Computer Keyboard with Restt Technology
A funny thing happened to me last week. I was typing on my laptop and noticed that my "t" and "y" keys were not working. Just when I needed a new keyboard, this myKeyO 6-in-1 USB keyboard is sent to me. This 6-in-1 USB keyboard is pretty special, and I will explain what the six things are right now. The first is the regular keyboard with some cool shortcut keys like … [Read more...] about myKeyO 6-in-1 Computer Keyboard with Restt Technology
Speculative Fiction Saturday: Sinbad, Legend of the Seven Seas
Normally on Speculative Fiction Saturday, I try to talk about films that talk about the future an where we are going, technologically-speaking. Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas is the first film that I have talked about that is fantasy, like that DawnSinger book I talked about a while ago. Sinbad is really a lesson in technology that we just haven't learned. You see, the … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Sinbad, Legend of the Seven Seas
Manfrotto KLYP iPhone 5 Flash
Since many of us are using our phone like we are using cameras, it stands to reason why someone would make a flash for a smartphone. This is exactly what the company Manfrotto has done with the KLYP made for the iPhone 5 and iPhone 4. I had a chance to try out the KLYP, and it reminds me of a clip on a rifle. At least the types that you see in films when an assassin snaps … [Read more...] about Manfrotto KLYP iPhone 5 Flash
The Cosmopolitan iPad Cover by idAmerica
As you can imagine, this is going to be one of my product reviews where I state that I have reviewed a lot of products similar to this. Generally, this is where I say that some product (in this case, an iPad case) must be really different to stand out from the competition/imitators. In the case of the Cosmopolitan by idAmerica, it is quite similar to Orion Leather case … [Read more...] about The Cosmopolitan iPad Cover by idAmerica
Google and Motorola announce the Moto X, and this could be big!
It is difficult to announce a big phone without a big event, and the Moto X was no exception. Yesterday, Google's company Motorola announced the Moto X, and it has taken me a day to talk about all the features. This new flagship smartphone has a curved back along with a 4.7-inch screen. The new phone will sport Jelly Bean version 4.2.2. It also has an X8 processing … [Read more...] about Google and Motorola announce the Moto X, and this could be big!
Jar-with-a-Twist solves peanut-butter knuckles and pretty much everything else
It really is the simplest of an idea that can change the world. In case you don't know what peanut butter knuckles are, just think about the last time that you tried to get some peanut butter from the bottom of a near-empty peanut butter jar. I don't know who has created this Jar-with-a-Twist, but they certainly are solving a problem. This device allows the user to twist … [Read more...] about Jar-with-a-Twist solves peanut-butter knuckles and pretty much everything else
Boomerang: One iPad mount to rule them all?
I have seen a lot of iPad mount/stands since the Apple tablet's release, and I will have to say that the Boomerang from XVIDA could be "the total package". The quote about the total package comes from Chris Johnson, the founder of BiteMyApple, a place to buy Kickstarter projects for Apple projects. The reason why the Boomerang could be all that is because it doesn't … [Read more...] about Boomerang: One iPad mount to rule them all?
Paperdude: An Oculus Rift and Kinect tribute to Paperboy
I think this would truly show your age if you remember a game known as Paperboy. There may be a lot of readers who don't know what it is, but it was a mid-eighties stand-up arcade game where you played a paperboy. The game had a bicycle handlebars as a controller, and your character dodged obstacles like cars backing up and more. Who knew that the life of a paperboy was so … [Read more...] about Paperdude: An Oculus Rift and Kinect tribute to Paperboy
