Here’s a look at a device you can’t get for the next 6 – 7 weeks: the Google / LG Nexus 4. Since it was first available, the device has been out of stock, with increasingly lengthy shipping times. I got mine yesterday, and wanted to get some first impressions posted and a few images [...]

One of my favorite accessories for my iPhone is the Olloclip, an external lens system that gives you three unique perspectives: fisheye, wide angle and macro. When I got rid of my trusty iPhone 4S in September, I missed the Olloclip, since it wouldn’t work with the new, thinner iPhone 5. Today, Olloclip announced their [...]

It looks like Apple has gotten their inventory in and started shipping a little sooner, because I received the below email [...]

I’ve considered buying the Chobi Cam One HD a couple times. There is something cool about having a tiny camera that takes decent pictures. This latest marvel out of Japan shoots 720p video, and apparently can take 12 megapixel pictures as well. The One Eye Kun The camera fits in the palm of your hand. [...]

I have absolutely no idea when I would have used this thus far in my life. I do realize that some people have to share a room with others, and would like to keep covered, and private nevertheless. If there ever is a time that I want privacy from other people in my room, I [...]

I mentioned in another post that Google’s results are tainted in my mind for a couple of reasons: relevancy and privacy settings. I found that I search using Google everywhere. I use it on my desktop at work, and on my laptop, and on my iOS devices. I don’t really use my Android phones/tablets much, [...]

A big question for me: Why do you use a case on your device? I write for ZAGG, so you probably could guess that I’m a big invisibleSHIELD user. In fact, every piece of technology I own was wrapped in the protective covering the same minute it was taken out of the box for the [...]
