I grew up in the 80′s. The 80′s was the decade of big hair, hair bands, break dancing and boom boxes. Never have I seen a dock for iPhone and iPod that brings back memories from the 80′s like the Altec Lansing MIX iMT800. The MIX has big boom box looks like no other dock [...]

iTab, iSlate- I Don’t Care What You Call It… I Want One
I have been more than a bit quiet about the whole hubbub surrounding the potential for Apple announcing a tablet sometime in 2010. Part of it has to do with the fact that I’ve gotten so caught up in the rumors in the past… only to be disappointed each time. I don’t like being disappointed [...]

Expanding The Sandisk Sansa Clip
Some time ago, I had the opportunity to review the Sandisk Sansa Clip. It is a great, little music player, which is ideal for runners and other individuals who do not need constant access to the screen. My only complaint about this player was that it has limited internal memory and no opportunity for expansion. [...]
Listen To This! The Great JAMM Portable Media Player Showdown Begins
I have spent a considerable amount of time here at JAMM, and also at Gear Diary, reviewing portable media players. One thing I have noticed is that a stand-alone review is really not the best format to help users answer the real question on everyone’s mind: which one should I buy? While a review is [...]
Review: Myvu Crystal 701 Personal Media Viewer
Even though the screen is small, I enjoy watching video on my iPhone and iPod Touch. No, it will never match the experience of watching a movie on a 50 inch hi-definition LCD, but it is more than merely functional- it is a pleasant experience. I’ve had my eye on Myvu’s various offerings for some [...]

As we see a convergence of media formats, everyone is looking for solutions to carry their content on the road with them. One of the drawbacks I see of micro PC’s and MacBook airs is their unsuitability to play dvds to entertain me while I’m traveling. Yeah, I’m selfish that way. Toast 9 Titanium – [...]
Review: The Sony Walkman…Now With Bluetooth
There it was. At last! Writ large upon the outer wrapping of the new Sony NWZ-A828K Digital Media Player (which most of you will know as a Walkman). There were the words I have longed to hear from a media player for so many years. The box read: WIRELESS. Enjoy music wirelessly with the supplied [...]
Universal GPS/Phone Bicycle Device Holder from USB Fever-Takin’ Your Tech into the Wild
With the approach of the 3-day Memorial Day weekend that unofficially kicks off summer, I figured it would be a good time to take a peek at a tool to encourage some of us pasty-white technophiles out into the actual outdoors. Although my legs have often been described as “cadaverous,” I realize that I probably [...]
