I discovered a company known as Wireox the other day, and I was pleased to review a few of their products. The first was the V8/V9 Micro USB Home/Wall Charger. It was essentially a charger for micro-USB devices, with a lot more lights on it. You plug it in, and the outlet plug has a red light. The micro USB plug has a white light. It is marked as the M-Volt, and it is … [Read more...] about Wireox has your Charger needs with M-Volt

Sure, I review a lot of iPhone accessories, and it is usually the ones that are different that I try to report on. After all, how many times can you say: "provides protection for the iPhone". This Kick iPhone 5 is made by X-Doria, the makes of the Felt and the Campfire for the iPad. The Kick is different as it has a two piece design to give a glossy, smooth top mated … [Read more...] about The Kick iPhone 5 case from X-Doria

I think it is interesting that we have cameras on our mobile devices, and with a camera can come the need for a tripod, especially with the shaky way we hold our mobile phones. None of us like to carry around large, human-sized tripods. Why not miniaturize the tripod, so it is is pocket-sized? This Original Modulr Set from MosyMount (pronounced "mosy mount" not "mossy … [Read more...] about Mosy Mount Original Modulr Set

This must be weird rumor day, but I would love to see at least one of these come true. The first is from Samsung, and the are apparently going to make a flexible display. I have been hearing about flexible AMOLED displays for years now, and BBC is saying that the first batch is ready for 2013. I will believe that when I see it, and I suppose that I will probably see that … [Read more...] about Two Weird Things: Flexible Displays from Samsung and a new Xbox 360 by next December

I can honestly say that I love my Bluetooth headset, and I thought I had lost it last week...twice. I thought I was going to have to use my phone the old fashioned way, but I cleaned up my desk and found it underneath...stuff. I personally think that this concept phone known as the LiteOn is not only good, but should be a standard for phones. As it were, the LiteOn is … [Read more...] about LiteOn smartphone concept has included Bluetooth headset

I have been reviewing a lot of Bluetooth Speakers these days with the one from Outdoor Technology and the Mighty Dwarf Blue II. I think that there is an apparent demand for cheap, portable Bluetooth speakers, and I suppose that it is a product of mobile phones that don't have big enough stereo sound. This company known as Boom Movement plans to make a an Urchin Ready … [Read more...] about Urchin Ready 4 Anything Bluetooth Speaker can take a lot of hits

What you are seeing here is the Boomerang, which is a Kickstarter project that claims it is the only iPad mount and stand. It took me a while to figure out what this actually does, but generally you have to choose between a mount and a stand. You can see that you can bend it so it looks like its namesake, but it doesn't look like it will return to you when you throw it. … [Read more...] about Boomerang is either a stand or mount for the iPad

It seems like we are getting more and more mobile devices, which means we have to spend more and more time charging them. Especially for soldiers, who often have to carry around 28 pounds of batteries on the field. I quoted the figure from my Source, who also stated the weight of the batteries is based on a 72-hour mission. Wouldn't it be terrific if you had … [Read more...] about PowerWalk Braces charge your batteries as you go

Today, I was pretty excited at seeing the Popslate, and I was feeling pretty good about where technology was headed. Now, I saw TrackingPoint's Intelligent Digital Tracking Scope and Precision Guided Firearm, and I am slightly afraid. The reason why is that it is a gun that will automatically fire on its target. All that is required is to look through the scope and "tag" … [Read more...] about TrackingPoint’s Intelligent Digital Tracking Scope and Precision Guided Firearm

This is why I keep working. Ah yes, every once in a while I see a product that has huge potential. Today, it is the Popslate, and it is an iPhone 5 case that has a four-inch e-ink screen on the back. This is a screen that is always on low-power, which is like a second monochromatic screen for the iPhone. Popslate uses a social imaging app which allows the user to … [Read more...] about Popslate, an iPhone case with an E Ink screen on the back

I just reported on some very futuristic transportation with the Series Lo MagLev train, and now I have something very special with the HyTAQ hybrid quadrotor robot. You might want to hit the jump and watch the video for this one. Allow me to simply say that it is essentially like the time-traveling Delorean from Back to the Future. Not only can it do the roads, but where … [Read more...] about HyTAQ Hybrid Quadrotor Robot

This is one of the times where watching the video here probably won't help. That is unless you are fluent in Japanese, but I wouldn't recommend using the YouTube translator. I have heard about a lot of fails from that. Here is what you need to know: this is the Series Lo, a Mag-Lev train developed by Japan's JR Tokai, is planned for finished construction in 2027. In … [Read more...] about Series Lo MagLev train to rocket across Japan

Every year, I see houses with Christmas Lights create these videos that are simply amazing. This year, since that rapper PSY has had 800 million hits on his "Gangnam Style" video, it seems only appropriate to do a Christmas tree light video to that song. I hope that you are amazed by this. I have four questions that I would like to address after the jump. Also, I have … [Read more...] about And now, for your entertainment pleasure, Christmas light houses

By now, you have heard that the Wii U is out there, and I am certain that it is the holiday "must have" item. I am guessing that there is no way that every one who wants it for Christmas can get it, and sometimes I wonder if the company does this deliberately to create a demand. But enough of my corporate conspiracy theories. I think it is interesting that Nintendo wants … [Read more...] about Nintendo Wii Mini goes for $99

Skullcandy puts out a great number of headphones and earbuds every ear, and the quality is quite good. I recently reported that they were doing gaming headphones, and the PLYR2 is apparently the company's first pair of wireless headphones. Yeah, that took me by surprise, but the PLYR2 has 2.4GHz wireless audio with "Supreme sound" technology as well as three different EQ … [Read more...] about Skullcandy PLYR2 Wireless Headset
