Generally, whenever I report on an iPhone case, I usually report on how light it is and how well it protects. In the case of the ToneFone, it is a matter of how heavy it is. As you can see in the image with the pretty model, this is an iPhone case that is designed to be a dumbbell. Insert a joke here that contrasts dumbbell with smartphone. You can get the ToneFone in … [Read more...] about ToneFone is the heaviest iPhone case, and it’s supposed to be that way
Hands on with the Stick N Find
I had a chance to try out a former crowdfunded product known as the Stick N Find, and I will say that it is quite an impressive product.

So if you have something like your keys or some other not losable possession, you can just stick a Stick N Find on … [Read more...] about Hands on with the Stick N Find
Using DNA to cast a 3D image of a face
I don't know about you, but sometimes I get a little scared when I see the potential of DNA. I'm not talking about the Jurassic Park situations, but the idea of just using a little DNA stuff to track you. This here is an interesting project that isn't complete yet, and maybe it just shouldn't be. You see, we have mapped out the entire human genome about a decade ago, and … [Read more...] about Using DNA to cast a 3D image of a face
The Floating Drone Ball
I have always loved the idea of a hovering ball, and it looks like someone has finally made one. I'm not certain what I would do with a hovering ball, but my Source on this seems to say that it could be a terrific Quidditch game. Maybe I just like the idea of some ball that can float in air, but the designer, Jun Rekimoto, stated that it is essentially a ball with … [Read more...] about The Floating Drone Ball
The Power Pen by the Sharper Image
I have been seeing a lot of mobile batteries lately, because we all have the problem of our mobile devices running out at inopportune times.

You will note that it comes with a cord … [Read more...] about The Power Pen by the Sharper Image
Speculative Fiction Saturday: Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters
Last week, I reviewed Frozen, and how I somewhat liked it, but with Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters, I will have to say that I really didn't like it. I will have to say that one of the reasons that I didn't like it was one of the same reasons I didn't like Frozen. The problem is the film tries to put a modern spin on its concept, so it uses dialogue and other modern-day … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters

Age of Music Gaming wraps up with closing of Music Hero downloads
I always knew that a day like this would come, the day when you would not be able to purchase downloadable songs for Guitar Hero, DJ Hero, Band Hero, and Guitar Hero Mobile. I suppose that this is really a sign of the times, and a sign that music gaming has really ended. Man, why does it seem like only yesterday I was playing Rock Band and thinking this was the best thing … [Read more...] about Age of Music Gaming wraps up with closing of Music Hero downloads

Go ahead and watch the video above here, and you will be amazed at the computer generated wonder.

PonoPlayer bringing back the MP3 player?
In writing about the PonoPlayer, I had to wonder when was the last time I reviewed an MP3 player? It seems like before 2005, I was writing about them all of the time. I guess the iPhone killed the traditional iPod, or was it the iPod Touch? Whatever the case, the PonoPlayer isn't really an MP3 player per se, as it can support all kinds of audio formats such as FLAC, ALAC, … [Read more...] about PonoPlayer bringing back the MP3 player?
Amazon making a game-box? Controller could be proof.
I usually try not to report on rumors on this blog, and there has been one going around about Amazon creating a "game-box" for the television. I believe this game-box would be good for Amazon video content as well as Android apps, like those on the Kindle Fire. I suppose this controller is probably the best proof for an Amazon "game-box", is the fact there is a controller … [Read more...] about Amazon making a game-box? Controller could be proof.
