Let's face it, we all want to do more on our laptops. It feels like I am always running out of USB ports, but thanks to the J5Create Ultra Station (JUD500), this isn't much of a problem anymore. You can see in the image here the bar that is this power station, and it is pretty impressive what it will give an ordinary laptop. It has two USB 3.0 Ports, a USB 2.0 port, a … [Read more...] about J5 Create Part 1: Ultra Station JUD500 and Wormhole USB Transfer Cable JUC400
Mobee Products, Part 1: The Magic Juice and Magic Charger
Yeah, we are doing another Part 1 and such, and this is really worth it with Mobee products. Today, I'll be discussing the Mobee Magic Juice and Magic Charger. Yeah, I'm not certain why "Magic" is in their title either. I will have to say that the Magic Juice is a product that I have seen before. I'm sure that you all know the drill by now, as you charge it via USB … [Read more...] about Mobee Products, Part 1: The Magic Juice and Magic Charger
Speculative Fiction Saturday: Almost Human
I usually don't review TV series on Speculative Fiction Saturday, and I think it is simply because there is there are probably not too much of them. I reviewed Continuum a while ago, and I should probably get around to writing on my take on Doctor Who. Many sci-fi shows have a big budget, and they often don't find their audience before the money runs out. Take shows like … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Almost Human
The 3HV2 and 5HV3 Gaming Headphones from SteelSeries
SteelSeries has been putting out a lot of cool gaming accessories for quite a long time, and I had a chance to review, not one, but two of their headphones. Let's start with the 3HV2 gaming headset. SteelSeries prides in four distinctions for this model that include performance, convenience, durability, and comfort. Right now, I am trying it out, and there are a lot of … [Read more...] about The 3HV2 and 5HV3 Gaming Headphones from SteelSeries
The Toughsuit for the iPhone 5/5S, from Body Glove
I believe that companies like Otterbox and Lifeproof really corner the market as far as protecting the smartphone, but this particular ToughSuit from the famed Body Glove are fair competition. ToughSuit is made with MIL-STD-810G military standards, which means that you can drop it and the iPhone 5/5S will be safe. This is due to a combination of the rubber material, and … [Read more...] about The Toughsuit for the iPhone 5/5S, from Body Glove
The SmartJacket and Engage for the iPad Air, from X-Doria!
X-Doria puts out a lot of interesting cases, and you have to like their designs and strength of protection. This is evident in cases like the Defense 720 and the Rapt. I had the chance to check out two of X-Doria's products, both for the iPad Air (iPad 5), and they are the Engage and the SmartJacket. Now the Engage is made for the back of the iPad Air, and it really … [Read more...] about The SmartJacket and Engage for the iPad Air, from X-Doria!
Joby Action Series Day, Part 2: GorillaPod Action Tripod
Come on, you knew this was coming. I just had a Joby Action Series Day, Part 1 with the Action Clamp + Gorilla Arm, so the inevitable Part 2 was just around the corner, and on the same day. This is the GorillaPod Action Tripod, and like the Action Clamp + Gorilla Arm, it is made for the GoPro Camera. Again, I see little point in explaining what a GoPro camera is. As … [Read more...] about Joby Action Series Day, Part 2: GorillaPod Action Tripod
Hasbro puts a new spin on Transformers with Construct-Bots
In addition to the Angry Birds Star Wars toys, I also had a chance to review some of the Transformers toys as well. Transformers is one toy that has really been done to death, and I am not talking about the Go Bots. Just when I thought that I had seen everything with the Transformers, along come the Construct-Bots. The Construct-Bots are a new set of Transformers that … [Read more...] about Hasbro puts a new spin on Transformers with Construct-Bots
Joby Action Series Day, Part 1: Action Clamp + GorillaPod Arm

A20 Premium Headphone Amplifier from Beyerdynamic
Having just reviewed the T51 p from Beyerdynamic on headphone day last Friday, I also had a chance to try out the A20 Premium Headphone Amplifier along with it. I would like to let you know that I am no audiophile, and so I don't really know the difference between good audio and bad audio. Think of it this way: a baby might enjoy the Baby Genius film series, but an … [Read more...] about A20 Premium Headphone Amplifier from Beyerdynamic
Hasbro goes all out with Angry Birds Star Wars toys
I suppose that I could have entitled this post with "Hasbro goes to a galaxy far, far away with the Angry Birds Star Wars toys". Get it? It's a Star Wars joke, and...they've been done to death. I had a chance to try out some of the new toys that Hasbro has to tie-in with the major franchise of Angry Birds, which ties in to one of the most popular franchises, ever. Let … [Read more...] about Hasbro goes all out with Angry Birds Star Wars toys
The MirrorCase for iPad, by RHP Multimedia
It has been about a year since I reviewed the Mirrorcase for the iPhone 4, and as far as I know, RHP Multimedia only put out one particular product that solves one particular problem. Here's the problem. If you use your smartphone or tablet as a camera, you always have to hold it in a position that is very uncomfortable. This is especially excruciating in cases where you … [Read more...] about The MirrorCase for iPad, by RHP Multimedia
Looxcie’s third interation has a square design
I've have seen Looxcie products for years. If you aren't familiar with the product, it is essentially a small camera for video streaming. Normally, the Looxcie is a small camera that fits on the ear, which is good at shooting your life from your eyes' point of view. For some reason, the Looxcie decided to go all square on us, and allows 720p video not to mention stills, … [Read more...] about Looxcie’s third interation has a square design
Lifeproof makes the frē for the iPhone 5C, too!
Yes, I am reviewing another Lifeproof product. I have just finished reviewing the frē for iPhone 5S, and now they have got one for the iPhone 5C. Just like other Lifeproof products, it protects for the big four. The first is the drop at 6.6 feet, and second, the water fully submersible, also at 6.6 feet. Then there is the dirt and dust. Oh, I also forgot to talk about … [Read more...] about Lifeproof makes the frē for the iPhone 5C, too!
inFORM is new form of interaction
It seems like we are constantly finding new ways of communication, and I would not mind having a Skype chat with the inFORM. As you can see from the video, which is a way of interacting in three dimensions. I can't help but be reminded of those pin-pressions, which was a sort of must-have for coffee tables back in the eighties. Remember those plastic boxes bull of dull … [Read more...] about inFORM is new form of interaction
