I realize that what you are looking at in the image looks to be an overhead view of a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro. However, if you look closer, this is an iPad on a Brydge 9.7 keyboard. Yes, this is a Brydge, and it is spelled as incorrectly as a super-hero of the nineties. When I saw this product on display at CES with an iPad in it, I thought I was looking at a small … [Read more...] about Brydge 9.7 Keyboard for the iPad Air and iPad Air 2

iHome Part 1: The SmartPlug iSP5
We managed to get a hole of three particular iHome products this week, and we are going to be looking at them one at a time. We'll start first with the iHome Control SmartPlug, or iSP5. I will start by saying that yes, this is a product that is already being made from several competitors, as having a connected home is kind of the thing to do these days. In particular is … [Read more...] about iHome Part 1: The SmartPlug iSP5
Speculative Fiction Saturday, So Bad It’s Good Month: Turbo Kid
Well, we are now reviewing a film called Turbo Kid, and with that title like that, you know it can't be good, but is it so bad that it is good? The answer is yes. Granted, it isn't the best "so bad it's good" movie that I've ever seen, but here's the strangest thing: if this film were released in the eighties, it would have been taken seriously. The premise is about how … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday, So Bad It’s Good Month: Turbo Kid
STM Haven Laptop Backpack
There is nothing like a good STM products, and they make a lot of them. It has been a few weeks since I received the Atlas Wallet case before the iPhone 6/6S and iPhone 6/6S Plus. Now we will be doing the Haven Laptop Backpack. So I have reviewed a lot of laptop backpacks on this site. In this case, the main pocket can probably both hold a tablet and a 15 inch laptop. … [Read more...] about STM Haven Laptop Backpack
Mimoco MimoPower2 and Batman X Mimobot
It seems like I've been reviewing Mimoco products before, and I was pleased to review the MimoPowerTube 2. As far as the MimoPowerTube 2 is concerned, it is a mobile battery. Okay, the only thing to say is that this one has 2600 mAh. Oh, and it comes with a microUSB and Lightning cable, and a carrying case. This one has Kylo Ren, so...(insert Star Wars pun here). It … [Read more...] about Mimoco MimoPower2 and Batman X Mimobot
Our Review of the Boogie Board Play n’ Trace
Well, I mentioned in my review of the Wacom Bamboo Spark how it is really necessary for us to really just draw things out, and sometimes the digital easel actually makes this more difficult. I once talked about the Boogie Board Play n Trace at its initial release, but it is that for kids, but less technical. This is from Boogie Board, the same company that made the Sync … [Read more...] about Our Review of the Boogie Board Play n’ Trace
Secur Products Part 2: Bluetooth Flashlight and PowerBank
Once again, we are here to review another Secur product, and this one is the Bluetooth Flashlight and Powerbank, otherwise known as the SP-5003. In case you are wondering, this product just just about everything. For example, if you need a light, it has it, and it is quite bright. It takes about 5 hours to charge, and the part that is the bulb just pops right off. Why … [Read more...] about Secur Products Part 2: Bluetooth Flashlight and PowerBank
1More Part 4: MK801 Over-Ear Headphones with In-Line Microphone and Remote
Well, we have one more 1More product to review, and instead of earbuds, we have the MK801 Over-Ear Headphones with In-Line Microphone and Remote. This one is for those who want to be more closed off with the music or audio content, as the over-ear headphone design blocks out the ambient noise. Yes, it is pretty good. by the way, the earcups rotate in four directions, … [Read more...] about 1More Part 4: MK801 Over-Ear Headphones with In-Line Microphone and Remote
Secur Products Part 1: Folding Solar Powered LED Lantern
In case you are wondering, this is not a ceiling fan. This is the first of Secur products that I will be reviewing this week. If you aren't familiar with Secur products, then I want you to become acquainted with them. The ones that I tried out can do so many things, and this first one is designed for some terrific lighting in emergency situations. It just so happens to … [Read more...] about Secur Products Part 1: Folding Solar Powered LED Lantern
Allsop Active ClickGo Sport Armband 5.7
It has been years since I first saw Allsop products at CES, and I am finally getting a chance to try one out for myself. Today, it is the ClickGo Sport Armband 5.7, which is good for the phones that are 5.2 inches in height. So that will work on the current iPhone 6/6S and Galaxy S5 and S6. Well, this is an armband for the smartphone, and we have reviewed those before, … [Read more...] about Allsop Active ClickGo Sport Armband 5.7
Bamboo Spark from Wacom
We live in an era that really demands that everything be technological, but for those of us that want to write down ideas really quick, pen and paper really is the best thing, really. However, the issue with pen and paper is you have to type it up after that just to get it to jive with the technological world. One of the things that I admire about Wacom is that they are … [Read more...] about Bamboo Spark from Wacom
1More Part 3: Multi-Unit In-Ear Headphones
Well, it looks like we have another chance to try out 1More products, so I'll go with the Multi-Unit Ear Headphones. Unlike the Triple Driver that I reviewed yesterday, this one is a dual driver. I'm told that they have a patented triple layer diaphragm constructed with aerospace-grade metal for high resolution sound and balanced frequency ranges. That is similar to the … [Read more...] about 1More Part 3: Multi-Unit In-Ear Headphones
Kürbis Bt Bluetooth Speakers from Thonet & Vander
I'm pretty pleased with Thonet and Vander, as I saw them on display at CES 2016, and their speakers look like something that would be prized by audiophiles. Sure, I am not an audiophile, as it is always difficult to review speakers and evaluate them for sound as I have only human ears. So, now it is time to give the specs like how Kürbis Bt with a power output of 60 watts … [Read more...] about Kürbis Bt Bluetooth Speakers from Thonet & Vander
ISSA (More Than an Electric Toothbrush) from FOREO
It has been a while since our first foray into FOREO, and the company is known for making some high quality electric Health and Beauty Aid products. Today, it is the ISSA, which is "more than just an electric toothbrush". After getting a chance to review it, I can agree with that. You know how most toothbrushes are a plastic handle, and then some bristles attached to it? … [Read more...] about ISSA (More Than an Electric Toothbrush) from FOREO
1More Part 2: Triple Driver In-Ear Headphones with In-line Microphone and Remote
Time once again for us to revisit 1More, and this time, I'm going to talk about the Triple Driver In-Ear Headphones with In-line Microphone and Remote. It's going to be had for me not to compare these earbuds with the Swavorksi that I reviewed yesterday, and I will say that they were tuned by the Grammy Award Winning Sound Engineer Luca Bignardi, and that will probably be … [Read more...] about 1More Part 2: Triple Driver In-Ear Headphones with In-line Microphone and Remote
