When you’re out and about, you probably have access to more wireless internet, or Wi-Fi connections, than you realize. Most cities have at least one broadband provider that offers subscribers on-the-go Internet access via public Wi-Fi. And even if you’re not a subscriber to that service, coffee shops and hotels almost always provide public Wi-Fi connections. […]

Meet the World’s First Wi-Fi Kettle: the iKettle
Not to judge, butting affixing “i” to the beginning of every product name relating to iOS or Apple devices is getting old. Really old. No, ancient is more like it. But I guess it’s the easy way to let people know that your new product is designed to work closely with and iOS app – […]

Rumor: RIM Going Head-To-Head with iPad Soon
So, let’s say that the iPad isn’t cutting it for you, but you want another option that’s similar, but without the 3G option. Would you maybe be interested in a BlackBerry model?

Lenovo Thinks Apple Is Missing the Boat in China
Apple has been selling a lot of iPhones out here in the States, and even across the world. But they’re not moving a ton in China, and Lenovo thinks that’s a bad move. This is all according to an article on CNet, where the chairman of Lenovo spoke out about Steve Jobs and Apple: “We […]
Apple Has Sold Even More iPads
When the Unicorn Tablet was first released, many people said that it just wasn’t going to sell. Just 21 days ago, I said that apparently, everyone either wants or has an iPad. I guess those people who wanted it bought one, because Apple announced yesterday that they’ve sold three million iPads in 80 days. Wow. […]
Mother’s Day and the iPad
A little over a week ago, I was with my wife and we were discussing what to get my Mom for mother’s day. For the past two years, we’ve been wanting to get her an iMac for either Christmas or her birthday. Of course, that’s a lot of money, and it’s not like we could […]

Well, it’s official. I have an iPad. Now here’s how I got it: After much deliberation, I decided that I couldn’t wait. I chose option No. 1 in my list of three methods to wait for the iPad, I wanted to get to the store at around 3 pm, but my wife had the car […]
AT&T Data Plans for the iPad Released – Again
Getting an iPad Wi-Fi+3G today? Hopefully I am too, but with it, comes a future with AT&T. Sure, I’ve already connected up with AT&T via my iPhone, but I – like many people – hope that a Verizon iPhone is coming out on June 7th. Apple announced the deets for the AT&T iPad plan back […]
Pulling the Trigger
Well, after much deliberating, and a few discussions with the wifey, and a whole lot of grain alcohol, it looks like we’re going to plunk down some money on an iPad. I think the fact that it might be a business expense was really the tipping point here, but who knows. Anyways, now comes the […]
Israel Temporarily* Bans iPad
Got an iPad? Whatever you do, don’t head over to Israel in the next few weeks/months. Turns out that even though Apple is welcome in Israel in general, the Israeli Communications Ministry has been telling customs to confiscate all Apple iPads coming into the country. Why? The Christian Science Monitor says: The announcement “follows the […]
Get Your iPad in Colors
I’ve always admired ColorWare products from afar. They’ve got a pretty basic premise: send in your stuff, be it an iPhone, iPhone dock, or even an HDTV, paint it, then send it back to you. But really, calling it paint is oversimplifying the process. I’ll let them explain it: After a year of testing and […]
iPad Delayed Overseas
I’ve got a buddy of mine who lives in the UK. Nice guy. I’ve never met him in person or anything, but we’re always chatting about how baseball is better than cricket, and how dentists are overrated. Oh, and Apple stuff. He really wants an iPad, and although I don’t have one yet, I do […]
