Yes, I will admit that I am bringing up Sherlock on Speculative Fiction Saturday because I like talking about it. This is a show that I really thought was going to be just awful, due to its premise alone. The show is about Sherlock Holmes and John Watson, but they are in our modern day era. Just to let you know, this Sherlock Holmes is from BBC. There is a similar show … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Sherlock (not exactly speculative, but oh so good)

Big Announcements for E3 2014
Okay, if you aren't familiar with video games, there is a big convention in LA every year known as E3. We at TheGeekChurch.com haven't been for a few years. By we, I mean me. However, I like to make certain that my readers know what's up with video games, so here's the skinny for the big three this year. Nintendo: I know that I have said that this company's days are … [Read more...] about Big Announcements for E3 2014
Hands on with the Ventev Powercase 2000, Powercell 6000, Glide, and Toughglass
I have talked about Ventev products before, and I had a chance to review many of them again. Let me start by saying that I highly recommend them, simply because everyone needs accessories, and you might as well use their signature orange and gray style. I'll go ahead and start with the Powercase 2000. In case you are wondering why the 2000 is tacked on the end of this … [Read more...] about Hands on with the Ventev Powercase 2000, Powercell 6000, Glide, and Toughglass
Samsung to make a foldable tablet by next year
I should probably give this a subtitle of: "Next year says that 'I'll believe it when I see it'." I have heard about this foldable display technology before, and it looks like Samsung is planning to release one this next year. Sadly, this is only one of those rumors, but I just like the idea of a foldable display. The rumor is that the foldable display will have three … [Read more...] about Samsung to make a foldable tablet by next year

I'll go ahead and start with the Link 5200i, which is made for iPhone 5 and other Apple products with a Lightning connector. Not only does it have a 5200mAh backup battery, but there is a USB out port. This way you can charge two … [Read more...] about The Link 5200i and Extreme 10,000 Duo from iWalk
PUC wireless MIDI instrument for iDevices
I have said before that I often review products that I am not the intended audience for. For example, the iRig Pro from IKMultimedia was an audio MIDI interface, and I don't really use MIDI much. However, for those who are really into MIDI, you might enjoy the PUC from Zivix. I'm not certain if the PUC stands for anything, but it might just be some shortened word for … [Read more...] about PUC wireless MIDI instrument for iDevices

Like all wireless headphones these days, it has a built-in microphone so you can take your phone calls in case someone calls while you're listening to music on your … [Read more...] about The iB85 Wireless Headphones from iHome
The AirRAM Vacuum Cleaner from Gtech
It isn't often that I review vacuum cleaners here on this blog, and I haven't done a hands-on review of this one, yet. This is the AirRAM from Gtech, and it is about to make you love vacuuming. The AirRAM has special brush bars to collect dirt, dust, and pet hair. In case you are wondering what is missing, the answer is a bag. All the debris is caught up in a small … [Read more...] about The AirRAM Vacuum Cleaner from Gtech
The iDL46 Lightning Docking Station from iHome
It looks like iHome week continues here at TheGeekChurch.com, as I'm going to review something that I haven't seen in a while, an iPod dock, the iDL46. Oh man, does that bring me back to the days of the iPod Classic! In case you need a reminder for what an iPod dock is, it is essentially a stereo speaker where you plug in the iPod on top and the base acts as a speaker. … [Read more...] about The iDL46 Lightning Docking Station from iHome
BlueAnt introduces the Pump HD Sportbuds
You might remember from my review of the last iHome product that I have been noticing a trend in consumer products where one will look like the other. Lately, it has been wireless earbuds made for fitness people, the ones that wrap around the the neck. It should be no surprise that BlueAnt came out with a pair of their own fitness wireless sportbuds, which I am guessing that … [Read more...] about BlueAnt introduces the Pump HD Sportbuds
The iBT65 Wireless Rechargeable Speaker from iHome
I'll be reviewing three iHome products this week (at least) and I will start with the iBT65, a wireless rechargeable speaker that I have seen its type before. Someone needs to get around to naming these things that are so darn similar. In the case of the wireless rechargeable speaker, it has this expandable speaker that can collapsible cup itself. Just do a search of … [Read more...] about The iBT65 Wireless Rechargeable Speaker from iHome
Speculative Fiction Saturday: Futurama
After last month's Pixar month, I have decided to start this month by reviewing a speculative fiction TV show. The reason why I chose Futurama is because my wife has informed me that I watch it all the time on Netflix. It is good that Netflix has all 10 seasons of this show, and I think I know why I watch it all the time. Heck, it is a cartoon, and I've loved cartoons … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Futurama
Snap-On iPhone Case from T-Tech by Tumi
Today, I'm going to finish by week of T-Tech by Tumi with a Snap-on Case for the iPhone 5. I have reviewed a lot of cases, and I will have to say that the iPhone 5 and 5S Snap-on case isn't that different then others I have reviewed. It is, as it advertises, sturdy and lightweight, and it is made with a Hard Polycarbonate shell with Flexible TPU. I don't know what TPU … [Read more...] about Snap-On iPhone Case from T-Tech by Tumi
Nyko Charge Base for the PS4
I have reviewed Nyko products before, and this is the first one that I reviewed for the PS4. The Charge Base for the PS4 is related to the Charge Base PS3, and works in a similar fashion. The Charge Base for the PS4 has these two custom USB charge adaptors that can attach to the micro-USB part of the controller. The adaptors can lock into the base which is plugged into … [Read more...] about Nyko Charge Base for the PS4
Universal Bluetooth Travel Keyboard from T-Tech by Tumi
I'll be completing my T-Tech by Tumi week-long review tomorrow, but today I want to focus on the Universal Bluetooth Travel Keyboard. It is a flat keyboard made of ABS plastic with some aluminum on top in order to sync with a tablet or smartphone. I have to admit that it is good to have a keyboard if you have work on your smartphone or tablet like you would a laptop, and … [Read more...] about Universal Bluetooth Travel Keyboard from T-Tech by Tumi
