Apple’s Magic Trackpad Review
August 6, 2010 by Carlos Eduardo · 22 Comments
Apple has a knack for making things look nice. So it goes without saying that the new magic trackpad looks awesome. I have the wireless keyboard and next to each other, they look like one continuous flow of aluminum and curves. However.. how good is the trackpad in replacing the traditional mouse? Well.. first let’s […]
Cardo Scala Rider Teamset Review
June 10, 2010 by Carlos Eduardo · 19 Comments
Cardo Scala Rider Teamset By Mark Gracey I used to own a much loved and well worn-in 50cc Vespa. With such a small bike with a small seat to share, my partner Rowena and I could carry on a perfectly decent conversation without the aid of microphones at top speed (which on the Vespa is […]
Sony Ericsson HBH-IS800 Wireless Stereo Headphones Review
July 11, 2009 by Aaron Binkley · 9 Comments
I needed a replacement for two trusty but long-in-the-tooth headsets, a Plantronics Discovery 640 that was no longer holding a charge, and an Aliph Jawbone that fell victim to an annoying echo. I wanted a headset that would be comfortable while doing things at home (I rarely use my headsets outdoors) in addition to solving […]

August 6, 2008 by Carlos Eduardo · 6 Comments
I think I have a Bluetooth Headset Fetish. Not in the silly kind of way where I walk around all day with one in my ear, but moreso in a scifi-ish sort of way. I’m fascinated by the technology that has allowed us to seemingly be talking to ourselves, as viewed by others, but to […]
Quick update on the BlueAnt Z9 Bluetooth Headset

I’ve been using the Z9 long enough to draw some final conclusions: 1) The headset is not comfortable for long periods of time IN your ear. The plastic earloop compresses the back of your ear adding to the pain. 2) The power plug seems like it’s a bit loose inside, but it works.. can’t quite […]
BlueAnt Z9 Bluetooth Headset Review: First Thoughts
April 15, 2008 by Carlos Eduardo · 1 Comment
The BlueAnt Z9 Bluetooth Headset was the headset I decided to go with after all. As you may recall in my previous posting, I have been slowly becoming unhappy with my first gen Jawbone headset due to comfort reasons. I decided, therefore, to consider alternatives (the Jawbone 2 will come out soon, see link at […]
The Quest for the Next Great Bluetooth Headset
April 8, 2008 by Carlos Eduardo · 2 Comments
I have an Aliph Jawbone right now. It works well, but is quite difficult for me to use with glasses (it regularly falls out of my ear and hangs loosely requiring constant fiddling). In addition, although the sound quality is good when reducing noise, it isn’t as rich or smooth as it could be. For […]
