Our fearless leader/editor was able to meet some great vendors at Macworld 2009 this year and got a sampling of their products. I am rounding them up in a series of posts, so, let’s take a look at what we have this time!
In this quick review we will be looking at two products: iKear’s Microfiber cloth and [...]
With my original iPhone 2G, I used a Monster solution to output the audio to my no-dock, no-RCA equipped car. Along came the iPhone 3G and while the Monster still worked, it no longer provided power.

The iPhone and Twitter go together like peanut butter and chocolate. Okay, maybe not, but they’re both darlings of the weberatti and enjoy popularity, prestige and — when it comes to the App Store — a growing plethora of choice combinations.
One such iPhone Twitter app enjoying attention lately is atebit’s Tweetie, now on release [...]

I’ve never found a good compact headset. The default Apple ear buds that ship with the iPhone (and every iPod) just don’t stay in my (must be mutant) ears. Likewise every other earbud I’ve tried had fallen out in the matter of seconds. Even the ones with over-ear hooks flop to the sides with annoying [...]
