Fresh from my review of that Moshi case for the GS 5 with a window comes a Kickstarter project that takes it way to the next level with the InkCase Plus. This concept is a way of putting a second screen on the Galaxy S5, and I applaud its method. It comes with a case, and within the case is a place for an E-Ink screen. Now, the E-Ink's display is in black and white, but … [Read more...] about InkCase Plus for the Galaxy S5

Moshi SenseCover Touch-Sensitive Case for the GS 5
I have covered a lot of covers on this blog. I know that sounds repetitive, but from Otterbox, to Lifeproof, to Element Case, I thought I had seen them all as far as smartphone protection was concerned. Then along comes Moshi with the SenseCover for the Samsung Galaxy S5. The SenseCover is designed to give the new flagship Android phone some serious protection on both … [Read more...] about Moshi SenseCover Touch-Sensitive Case for the GS 5
Check out Smartwatch Reviews
As much as I would like to say that I am proud of this site, it is not mine. This would be the first time that I have reported on any site. This is not counting my countless "Source" that I generally put at the end of every post. So why am I starting to report on another site? Simple. I write for Smartwatch Reviews. I wrote for other sites in the past that I have … [Read more...] about Check out Smartwatch Reviews
Blackwell Legacy from Wadjet Eye Game
I've had a lot of chances to try out a lot of old-school RPG point-and-click games, such as Quest for Infamy and The Last Door. The other day, I tried out the first game of the Blackwell series. I have played a lot of point-and-click adventures, and as I have said before, I know the format. Go some place, get something, use it someplace else, unlock a mystery which will … [Read more...] about Blackwell Legacy from Wadjet Eye Game
The Coolest Cooler is easily the coolest cooler
I realize that most of you are looking at this headline is kind of reflexive, and I will agree with you. However, my wife showed me this video of the Coolest, and I just knew that it had to be a Kickstarter project. We are all aware of these awesome coolers that keep our drinks cool in the summertime, but the basic technology has not changed since their basic creation. … [Read more...] about The Coolest Cooler is easily the coolest cooler
MindRDR gives the Google Glass some brain power
It's pretty clear that Google Glass is going to be the new smartphone, as soon as imitators bring the price down to at least below $1,000. I believe that the controls are done with voice or touch, but now the power of mind is getting into the equations. This is the MindRDR, and it uses a method of controls that I have seen before, like with the NeuroSky with their … [Read more...] about MindRDR gives the Google Glass some brain power
Speculative Fiction Saturday: The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus
Okay, it looks like I am still on my Terry Gilliam month, and this time, it is this film that was released at the end of 2009 and was pretty much ignored. I speak of The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. Now you think with a title like that, it would inspire much flights of fancy, and trust me, there are many flights to be taken in this film. The plot of Doctor Parnassus … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus
Rocketskates are a futurist’s dream come true
I always like when I see some new device that looks like it has been plucked from some speculative fiction. The Rocketskates look like something I would see if The Jetsons was a bit more realistic. The Rocketskates have a lot of good things going for them. First of all, they are motorized skates. They each have a 50W DC hub motor, an integrated microprocessor, and a … [Read more...] about Rocketskates are a futurist’s dream come true
Darbee Darblet DVP-5000 HDMI Video Processor
Every once in a while, I see some device that must be specialty or something. I don't know if you have heard of the Darblet HDMI Video Processor, but I would recommend this to any videophile. The Darblet DVP 5000 is a small box that you can see here, and it increases the resolution on your Blu-ray, video game player, or anything else that takes HDMI. All that is required … [Read more...] about Darbee Darblet DVP-5000 HDMI Video Processor
BAE Systems introduces The Transformer, a plane you wanted to see as a child
This is one of those products that I can't believe will ever be a reality. This plane is apparently under development from BAE Systems, a UK aerospace and defense contractor, and it looks like an 80's kid's toy. In fact, it is even called The Transformer. It certainly looks like it is from the 80's cartoon that eventually turned into four (count 'em four) Michael Bay … [Read more...] about BAE Systems introduces The Transformer, a plane you wanted to see as a child
The Striker Capsule Head Lamp, a 4 in 1 Task Light
If you have never heard of Striker before, they really make some useful products. This is the best picture of the product that I am reviewing from them, the Capsule Task Light. Yes, I know this sounds like an ad campaign, but this is "four lights in one". So, what does this particular light do? Well, let's start with a headlamp, allows you to put it on your head so you … [Read more...] about The Striker Capsule Head Lamp, a 4 in 1 Task Light
The Epson PX-S05 Travel Printer
You know what the problem is with our society? We are both a paper society and not a paper society. Seriously, I've got lot of documents on my computer that should be printed out, but printers are such stationary things. You could just get the Epson PX-S05 which is a printer that is small enough to fit in one's carry-on baggage. It is slim, uses A4 paper, inkjet, and it … [Read more...] about The Epson PX-S05 Travel Printer
Mall of the World coming to Dubai
It seems like every time that I hear about Dubai, it is always in the context that it is this real mega-city plucked out of futuristic science-fiction. I have just learned of a new project called the Mall of the World, and I am assuming that it can kick the Mall of America's butt. Yeah, Bloomington, Minnesota has nothing on Dubai's Mall of the World. As you can see in … [Read more...] about Mall of the World coming to Dubai
New Robotech Show to get Crowdfunding
Generally, I try and avoid interjecting my own opinion into my blog postings. Today, I have something that I want to see get off of the ground. Someone is trying to revive Robotech. If you are not familiar with Robotech, it was an animated series from Japan that was imported to America around the mid-80's. It was actually a three-part story within its eighty-or-so … [Read more...] about New Robotech Show to get Crowdfunding
Phonesuit Flex XT Pocket Charger for the iPhone
I've reviewed Phonesuit products before, like the Elite battery case for the iPhone 5/5S. That product was a way to double the battery life of your phone, and there is another product known as the Flex XT Pocket Charger that can give your iPhone 150 percent power in a smaller size. The Flex XT Pocket Charger is a lot like the Link 5200i from iWalk. The Pocket Charger is … [Read more...] about Phonesuit Flex XT Pocket Charger for the iPhone
