The new BlackBerry Tour has been out for a few weeks now on both Verizon and Sprint. This means it’s time to roll out the accessories for everyone to protect their device. While some people like to clip their BlackBerry devices into a holster for the world to see – I’ve started to us pouch type cases similar to this Outdoor / Wave case line from Beyza. I find it a lot easier to manage my phone is this type of case and I’m not constantly getting hung up by my case on my belt as I get into and out of my car. This morning I received an email from Beyza offering 20% off with discount coupon 1715.

A few months ago Judie received a MacBook Air Thinvelope from BeyzaCases. Thing was, she didn’t have a MacBook Air. A few weeks later, however, her MacBook Pro went on the fritz and, in good “gadget guru” style, Judie wasted no time. She sent it in for repair. In the meantime, Judie picked up an MBA to go with her beautiful leather Thinvelope. Isn’t it great when things work out so nicely?!

Not long after, I was breaking the 10th Commandment and coveting the heck out of her Thinvelope. After all, I had gotten MY MBA the first day they were shipping.

Being the AWESOME person she is, Judie sent her Thinvelope to me so I could review it for JustAnotherMobileMonday. Well… Continue Reading

Back in April, when I first posted about the Beyza Cases MacBook Air Thinvelope Leather Case, I made the comment that if they created “this same style case, but with white stitching for the MacBook Pro 15, then I [would] have to put my order in immediately.” My contact Ali wrote to say that although they weren’t planning on making the Thinvelope for the MBP, the tan one did come in the color combination I wanted, and he would be sending it “ASAP, with your name. Maybe you’ll get a MacBook Air.”

Not very likely, I thought at the time; but in an almost prescient way, Ali turned out to be right.

Available in flo tan – which looks like a pebbly textured leather, smooth tan, black, antique black, antique brown – which in the picture reminds me of bomber jacket leather, and flo red, the Thinvelope is a sumptuous leather wrap made to protect your Air without adding a lot of bulk. As promised, mine came in tan leather with white stitching, and it was embossed with my name…and yes, you’ve probably noticed that I am a sucker for personalization.

A round magnet keeps the Thinvelope’s cover shut

When I arrived at the conference area to grab breakfast before entering, Tim McAfee was there to greet us, handing out REDFLY t-shirts. I was hoping for a medium, but some of the other guys had already beat me to them; he made it up to me by giving me two larges. Ha! After getting set up and then eating my food, I settled in with the others to listen to the first presentation on the Microsoft Zune.

Creative Strategies Presentation

Ben from Creative Strategies started a two hour discussion with the question “How is technology going to better integrate and improve people’s lives.” He gave a quick overview of the personal computing experience over the past couple decades, and about how many of the systems we had bought were basically versions of the current enterprise models. In the last few years, the trend has become about choices – colors, configurations, various sizes, making the whole experience more optimized and personal for each individual.

CS’s view of the Digital Future is that “No device is an island,” meaning that all of your information will be synced with all of your devices, in all of your locations. I’m ready for that…

Part of the lure of a being on holiday is the ability to get away from all of your tech distractions. But if you’re reading this site, then you’re probably like me and derive an inordinate amount of enjoyment from having all of your toys and gadgets with you wherever you go. There’s a lot to be said for putting your smartphone, MP3 player, digital camera or laptop away in order to be able to fully soak in your surroundings, but when used in moderation, I think gadgets can actually enhance your travel experience.

There are all sorts of considerations to take into account when travelling with your tech toys. Will it have enough storage for all my photos and music? Is it durable enough to handle the rigours of the road? Will the battery last me until the next time I get to a power outlet? And what happens if my bag gets stolen?

Gadget insurance is something I’ll cover in another post, but the rest of the concerns are easily take care of with the right tech and accessories.
