PDair Leather Cases for the HTC EVO 3D Have Been Released
In case you’ve never paid attention, PDAir releases about a b’zillion cases a year.

New PowerSkin Battery Case for Samsung Nexus S 4G
I am a big believer in having extra battery power handy, just in case. I travel an awful lot–once a week on average–and having, say, a Mophie Juice Pack Air for my iPhone 4 is very nice indeed; it relieves me from having to worry about looking for free plugs at the crappy Southwest terminal [...]
Summer Tech: Qi-wear by iharmonix Bluetooth Enabled Sunglasses

Review: MusicSkins Music, Style, Protection
Phones, mp3 players, laptops, cameras, hard drives, headphones. We all have so many gadgets that may have a splash of color or chrome, but basically are simply black, white or silver products that may not be exactly custom or a representation of the owner.

Portable Speaker Review: The Bomb from iFrogz
I cannot tell a lie. I love speaker solutions. With music being totally mobile and always available in my pocket, I love having many ways to listen to my audio content. Some options are quite expensive and include bluetooth connections and high-end audio, but sometimes I just need something inexpensive, easy to carry and convenient. [...]
Bluetooth Stereo Headset Review: Jabra CLIPPER Headset
