Review: iMo Pivot Touch USB Monitor
A few weeks back, I started researching alternative monitor solutions for my MacBook Pro. I have a 23-inch Dell monitor on my desk connected via the Mini DisplayPort adaptor, but if I wanted an additional monitor, I didn’t think I had any options. I discovered iMo, and after a few e-mails, they sent me one

Expecting – Baby Care on the iPhone
It was 3:12 am when my wife woke me up. She was standing, silhouetted in the doorway from the hall light, and my eyes weren’t focusing yet. “Kevin, I think we need to go to the hospital,” she said. “My water is leaking and the contractions are 9 minutes apart. I’ve been timing them.” That’s

Review: Microsoft Notebook Mouse for Mac
Ever since I got my MacBook Pro back in June, I’ve been on the hunt for a decent bluetooth mouse. I wanted something portable, small, and easy to use, without being a small fortune to purchase. Sure, wireless mice are neat too, but I always worry about losing that tiny dongle. Then there’s the Apple

ClickToFlash – Make Using Flash Your Choice
The past few weeks, there’s been a lot of talk about Adobe’s Flash. The iPad doesn’t run it, and neither does the iPhone, which is either the best thing that’s every happened or the biggest catastrophe since WWII. Me, I’m on the fence. I never really thought that I ran into Flash frequently on the

NewEgg Gets an iPhone App
One of the coolest sites out there for buying computer parts online is NewEgg.com. In the past, I’ve ordered lots of things from them, ranging from hard drives to full enclosures, and never once had a problem. The other day, I was surfing around, looking for external storage, and I decided to use the iPhone.

iPads and Children
As some of you know, I have a baby on the way. In fact, the wife was due yesterday, but that didn’t happen. What you probably don’t know is that I’m also an intense car guy who is buying a crew cab truck in the next few months, and outfitting it with enough technology to

iPods and the Car
Way back in November, I did a post about iPods and Your Car, where I discussed some of the options out there for iPod integration into your car or truck. At that point, I figured I had seen the end of iPod integration into the vehicle. Then today, I saw something on TV which made

Fancypants Browser – Firefox Adds Personas
File this one under: “I don’t know how I missed this, and it’s probably old news.” I was working online the other day, while my wife was sitting at the next desk over, working on installing Windows 7 onto her Dell (FYI: it took her 4 hours to do it, and she spent a good

Review: Pelican i1015 iPod/iPhone Case
A few weeks ago, we were contacted by Pelican about their new i1015 water resistant case. Always down to review a new product, we asked for a review copy and they sent us out one for free for evaluation. At first glance, this is just a generic case. It’s not designed specifically for iPods or

Google Pad? Oh That Should Sell Like Hotcakes
I’m a fan of Google. I use Gmail all the time, Google Maps is my co-pilot, and I use Google Reader and Alerts to get info for this very website. What I don’t like however, are Google’s other software, Chrome and Android. I can’t get used to Chrome, and Android just does nothing for me.
