Timbuk2 Plush Sleeve Review (for the iPad)
May 22, 2011 by Carlos Eduardo · 90 Comments
When I bought my original iPad, I also purchased the original rubbery-feeling Apple ipad case. Although convenient to use, it lacked the crucial cushioning necessary to protect the iPad from blows or dents.

April 23, 2011 by Aaron Binkley · 26 Comments
I returned home after a rain-delayed flight home to find an early Easter present in my mailbox. My DodoCase for the iPad 2 had arrived! DodoCase pitches their case as hand-made locally by adapting traditional bookbinding techniques to house and protect new electronic devices.

Nixon ‘The Wire’ 8mm headphones review
July 22, 2010 by Carlos Eduardo · 100 Comments
The Nixon ‘The Wire’ 8mm headphones are not great. They’re not horrible, but they’re not great. I went to the Apple store the other day to see if I could replace my aging Altec Lansing Backbeats and found the Nixons were the cheapest alternative that I hadn’t already tried. They looked nice enough and had […]
