iLuv iMM747 Audio Cube for iPad/iPhone

Saturday, July 9th, 2011

Not in the least bit cubic, but providing a 10watt dock connector for juicing up your iPad, the iLuv iMM747 is a compact little speaker dock for your kitchen audio needs. Its punchy enough to take on other roles, too, but if you’re anything like me, you need some music to motivate you during the [...]

iControlPad Review

Saturday, July 9th, 2011

I’ve had the iControlPad, a Bluetooth game controller for the iPhone, Android phones and other devices, for some time now and have thoroughly enjoyed catching up on my classic gaming favourites. Read on for an exhaustive review of its ins and outs. After waiting years for the Pandora, and continuing to wait with unwavering patience, [...]

Just Mobile AluPen Stylus For iPad And Other Tablets

Wednesday, June 29th, 2011

I tried a couple of iPad stylii a while back and found them to be, to spare a string of verbal abuse, lacking. They required too much pressure and were far too grippy against the iPad screen. They were ugly too, but form follows function… or lack thereof… so that’s really a moot point. My [...]

SteelSeries Siberia Neckband Headset Review

Saturday, May 28th, 2011

I’ve never quite understood neckband headsets, and they do take some getting used to. The laws of gravity seem to dictate that having the band on top of your head is the most sensible location, but fashion will always try to run against the grain and thus, and for seemingly no other reason I can [...]

Scratch And Sniff Comes To A Phone Near You

Friday, April 1st, 2011

Comic Relief and Gordon Ramsay, creators of Seriously Good cooking sauces, have teamed up with leading olfactory and technological experts to create the world’s first scratch ‘n’ sniff smartphone app. This announcement follows the release of last year’s Seriously Good app which allows buyers to spin, shake, turn and flip Gordon Ramsay until he reacts [...]

Gear4 Angry Birds iPhone 4 Case

Tuesday, February 15th, 2011

Unlocked iPhone 4? Get The One Plan from Three. When it comes to cases like these, a picture really is worth a thousand words. The Gear4 Angry Birds iPhone 4 case is simple perfection, with a striking, clean design which pretty much everyone loves. I mean, it’s an Angry Birds character! You really can’t go [...]

Cygnett Snaps Duo iPhone 4 Silicone Bumpers Review

Thursday, January 20th, 2011

My distaste of silicone cases will forever cloud my judgement of this particular category of products. In fact, I get emails from Chinese factories about once a month asking if I want to bulk-buy some generic silicone phone cases- they’re definitely the underdog of phone protection, but it’s not entirely impossible to make something worthwhile. [...]

TypeTop iPhone 4 Bluetooth Keyboard Case Review

Saturday, January 1st, 2011

From the moment I found out that the iPhone 4 would support bluetooth keyboards, I didn’t believe it would be long before a case would arrive combining protection with a handy, more tactile input device. And, indeed, it wasn’t long, and as is typical of the tech world, we’re not exactly deprived from choice. One [...]

Oberon Design Leather iPhone Sleeve Review

Friday, December 31st, 2010

As I lay in bed, conquered by a virulent cold. I can think of nothing better to do than to, for once, update Gadgetoid. It’s been neglected as of late with life doing as it does and getting in the way. Writing, it seems, requires very little brain engagement and is forgiving of my currently [...]

Griffin GuitarConnect Review

Wednesday, September 29th, 2010

One might be forgiven for saying “it’s just a cable,” and that’s all the Griffin GuitarConnect Cable is at face value. But what it represents is liberation, a pathway to creativity and access to a diverse variety of reasonably good quality filters which would set you back a pretty penny in pedal form. I’ve got [...]
