This past week I did not see too much earth shattering news regarding USB flash drives at CES. I had a chance to swing by the Victorinox booth to check out their 2012 product offerings. The only real highlight on their storage front was their Swiss Army-inspired USB stick. This was the first USB 3.0 [...]

Mimoco Announces Mimomicro USB Readers
Try saying Mimoco announces Mimomicro five times fast, and when you’re done admire how cute these are! Sure, you can use a boring USB card reader, but how much better is it to transfer data from your microSD through Darth Vader, Wonder Woman or Batman? From Mimoco: (Las Vegas, January 10, 2012) — Mimoco (www.mimoco.com), renowned [...]
Lexar Introduces USB 3.0 Flash Drives
My new laptop finally has USB 3 in a couple ports and now Lexar finally has releases a couple new flash drives that may help me fill my USB 3 ports. First up is the new JumpDrive Triton model which boasts itself as one of the fastest USB 3.o flash drives available. The new JumpDrive [...]
JLab b-Flex X-Bass USB Laptop Speaker Review
I practically live on my MacBook Pro. All of my Gear Diary posts are done using it, most all of my internet browsing and I even use it full time at work instead of my supplied Windows machine. Some would say I love this computer since it is with me everywhere I go. There is [...]
USBFever’s Releases o’ the Week Include a Retro Mac iPad 2 Cover
You know, it’s stuff like this that makes me feel old. I was in college–college!–when the Mac was released. As a nerd, I’ve kept up with the multiple waves of new tech. Heck, I post articles for a tech web site, and work on cloud computing for my “day job”!–but something deep inside will always [...]
Kingston DataTraveler 109 with urDrive Review
When it comes to USB drives I tend to be fairly utilitarian – I want something fast, portable, durable, and reliable. The top brand drives all offer that stuff, so what makes you choose one $20 8GB drive over another? Kingston is hoping that their urDrive software embedded in the DataTraveler 109 will offer users [...]
Digital Innovations AllTerrain Wired 3-Button Mouse Review
Mice seem to be ubiquitous. Everyone has one. Not many people even consider buying one that didn’t come with their computer while some are fanatical about the mice they use. I tend to be one of the former. As long as it has a scroll wheel I am usually happy, but now I have a new [...]
Tired of Plastic? Brinell Gives You Drives with Wood, Leather and Carbon!
I’m old enough to remember the days when, unless you got a Mac (and even the early Macs!), you could get any color you liked, so long as it was beige plastic. Nowadays we’re seeing more colors and materials, but believe me, for a while there it was lots and lots of beige plastic, and [...]
USBFever Releases o’ the Week Include Multiple iPhone 4/4S Lens Combo
Sometimes, the sheer variety of things that USBFever puts out kind of amazes me. I mean, I expect them to do cases and chargers and mounts and stuff like that, but camera lenses? Optical mice? Keychain speakers? Really, these guys just don’t sit still. I have this mental image of a bunch of nerds all [...]
USBFever Launches o’ the Week Include the “iWrench”
One of the things that’s always kinda interested me is the difference between the Queen’s English, and American English. For example, we here in the U.S. call potato chips “chips”, while in the U.K. they call them “crisps” (both equally valid, in my opinion). U.S.: Cookies; U.K.: Biscuits. Etc. So it makes me wonder; if [...]
USBFever’s Launches o’ the Week Include TUNEPENCIL DrawPro Stylus Pen for iPhone/iPad/Smart Phones
I’m not much of an artist–which is a polite way of saying that my drawing abilities totally stink–but even I think that stylus that you can see above is pretty durn cool. And of course given that it’s from USBFever, it’s hardly the only thing that they’ve released this week, because that’s just the kind [...]
USBFever Releases o’ the Week: Smiley Hamburger Bun iPhone 4 Case and More!
Okay, yes, I agree: an iPhone 4 case that looks like a smiley hamburger bun looks kinda ridiculous. Yes. Can’t argue. But you know what? I respect a company that’s at least trying to be interesting and fun. USBFever cranks out a simply unbelievable amount of new releases every year–heck, every week!–and I give them [...]
USBFever’s Releases o’ the Week: iPhone 4 Magnetic Wide Angle Lens Among Other Things
In spite of the fact that I probably won’t get one meself, I love the concept of attaching a zoom lens to my iPhone camera lens. It gives it kind of a steampunk flavor, it seems to me, and for me that’s a durn good thing. And this week, that’s one of USBFever’s new items, [...]
USBFever Release o’ the Week
It’s a challenge, you know. Every week, USBFever puts out something like a dozen new products, and it’s a challenge for me as a professional writer (I do actual tech writing for a tech company, believe it or not!) to introduce these weekly lists imaginatively. But you know, they’re so . . . relentless! Every week! [...]
USBFever Releases o’ the Week
Oh, those busy little beavers over at USBFever! Looking for a new case for your iPad? Or how about your Macbook Air? Or perhaps a bike mount for you new HTC gadget? Yup, they got all that, and that’s only on this week’s list. If you’re looking for accessories, they’ve probably got something close to [...]
