This past weekend I installed a new smart home device, the August View. During my travels last month for various events and vendor fairs, I visited with one of our reps from August Lock and learned about this new product that was just released in the last 30 days. As soon as I saw this […]
Recently, I’ve written about RokForm, the Just Mobile Deluxe Car Kit and Belkin’s Car Tune in Kibbles & Bytes as solutions to mount your iPhone in the car. However, I found that like most accessories, it’s all about what fits the user and in this case, your vehicle. While manufacturers list most accessories as being […]
Summer is upon us, that means we’re all playing outside in one way or another. Biking, hiking, fishing, swimming, camping or just straight chillin’ and grillin’. Either way, some of us can’t go without tunes filling in the soundtrack to our outdoor fun. I have been out camping already this season and found that, being […]
Beats by Dr. Dre has introduced their new lineup for 2014 and we are very excited to be offering these in our stores. Beats Electronics was founded in 2008 by Luke Wood, Jimmy Iovine, and Dr. Dre, and their debut Beats by Dr. Dre Studio headphones were renowned for style and quality sound, cementing their […]

Earlier this week, Apple sent out an email announcing the reintroduction of the iPad with Retina display (4th Gen). (See the press release here.) As you may remember, when the iPad Air was announced, the iPad 4 was taken off the market. Well, it’s back baby! The iPad featuring the Retina display will replace the […]
Recently portable speakers have transitioned from physically docking your iPod to Bluetooth wireless connectivity. This is in large part due to the fact that we use our smartphones to listen to music and that Apple switched from the 30-pin to Lightning connector. Although I think the Lightning dock is a great step forward, manufacturers largely […]
We like to carry products that jive with our own mission statement, and a company like Brenthaven is right up our alley. For those of you who haven’t heard of the company, Brenthaven has been around since the 1980s, and they started by developing outdoor packs. That history speaks directly to the quality of their […]
Google released the first major app update to Google Maps for iPhone on Tuesday, as part of their goal to make the app more comprehensive, accurate and useful.
