Stow Your Keyboard with the Slimkey V2 Stand

Stow Your Keyboard with the Slimkey V2 Stand
My wife and I own an iMac which sits opposite my MacBook Pro in our home office. We also have a 7-month-old kid who loves to sit on mommy’s lap while she’s trying to get things done. He also loves hitting the spacebar on the keyboard, and bashing away at the keys like a madman. Read more…

Marvel & Gelaskins Team Up

Marvel & Gelaskins Team Up
It should come as no surprise that I’m a big fan of comics. And as you probably also know, my wife is a big fan of Gelaskins. But maybe, with this latest introduction, I could be converted to the skin side. Maybe. These are new Marvel iPhone, iPod, and iPad skins made by Gelaskins. They’re Read more…

Wrap Your iPad in Mario

Wrap Your iPad in Mario
Alright, so technically, this is a Goomba, not Mario. But first, let me explain. I can honestly say with no exaggeration that my wife and I would not be together today if it wasn’t for Nintendo. Seriously. We were dating, and things were going alright, but neither of us were really that into it. Then Read more…

Hands On with the KarasKustoms iPhone 4 Case

Hands On with the KarasKustoms iPhone 4 Case
A few days ago, I wrote a post about an aluminum case for the iPhone 4 made by KarasKustoms. I got an e-mail that night from one of their employees, and a few days later I was at the shop, checking it out first hand. Then they gave me a model for my own use Read more…

Apple Rumored to be Starting News Subscription Service

Apple Rumored to be Starting News Subscription Service
As some loyal readers may remember, writing for Apple Gazette is not my only gig. I’m also the editor of a magazine which is going national this month. It’s a lot of pressure, but as is to be expected, I’ve been making a big push to get an iPad app for the book, and now Read more…

Jorno Bluetooth Keyboard Up for Preorder

Jorno Bluetooth Keyboard Up for Preorder
One of the nice things about the iPad – and now the iPhone with iOS 4 – is the ability to use a Bluetooth keyboard. Fortunately enough, Apple has a handy-dandy one that isn’t too big, but it’s still large enough that it’s not always convenient to haul around with you wherever you go, particularly Read more…

The Best iPad Case Ever

The Best iPad Case Ever
One of my greatest childhood frustrations was the Etch a Sketch. No matter how hard I tried, I never was able to create a cool design or picture with the thing, and it drove me nuts. Eventually, I hucked it across the room in frustration and stormed off. Inevitably, a week or so later I’d Read more…

Catholic? Do You Have These iPhone Apps?

Catholic? Do You Have These iPhone Apps?
I am sure you’ve heard of the current Pope’s visit to the UK.  While we have devouts on one end of the spectrum, there are also critics on the other end.  It’s a fact of life – you can’t please everyone. This post is for Catholics who lean towards the developments in technology, courtesy of Read more…

Get Woody with your Keyboard

Get Woody with your Keyboard
My Dad is a woodworker. Not by trade, more by hobby, but it’s definitely something that he enjoys doing. The first time I saw this setup, I knew that it was something my father would love to do himself if he had thought of it. So here’s the deets: It’s a wooden tray designed to Read more…

27-inch LED Cinema Display Available Now

27-inch LED Cinema Display Available Now
After quite a bit of waiting, the new 27-inch LED Cinema Display is available now for purchase at the Apple Store online, and it’s shipping in 1-2 weeks. So what’s the big deal? First off, the monitor itself is pretty amazing. 2560X1440 resolution and a 16:9 aspect ratio isn’t too bad. Then combine the LED Read more…
